[Alessandra Ambrosio, Lindsay Ellingson, Marisa Miller and Emanuela de Paula, Photos Getty] When Victoria’s Secret introduced their “Body by Victoria” line ten years ago women across the world rejoiced. Gone were the days of the, uh, Madonna-look, and in are the days of the “every body” look. To celebrate, the models threw a party at Herald Square, to announce the return of the popular Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show this fall. More »
[Erin Wasson in her signature cut-off jean shorts. Photo via Lalila] It’s not any secret that my obsession with learning how to surf is exponentially growing as summer goes on and has pretty much reached an all time high since the weather has turned to blue skies. So although it may seem odd to choose an already established model as our choice for a Daily Style Phile. since we tend to bring you emerging and upcoming names, there is solid reasoning behind choosing model and surf-fan Erin Wasson.

Brazilian bombshell and Victoria’s Secret model, Adriana Lima, donned a modern-day Cleopatra outfit on Saturday to launch her new fragrance and body care collection, Noir– an “enchanting range of fruity floral products” with a mixture “sparkling nectarine, sultry amber and exotic cattaleya orchid.” Lima dropped by the lingerie store’s Lexington Ave. location to promote the line, sign autographs, and greet fans.

With summer just around the corner and beach bod season quickly creeping up on us (Hamptonsanyone?), it’s about time we head to the gym and attempt to shed our winter layers. We already tried this once with our New Year’s resolutions, when gyms made joining easy, but actually getting there a whole different story. So if we have to suck it up and do it, we might as well have some eye candy to feast on while we’re suffering, and what better motivation than some perfect examples of human specimens?

Just in time for Valentine’s Day, NYC’s hottest models and scenesters celebrated their favorite lingerie brand with hosts Adriana Lima and Doutzen Kroes at the Bowery Hotel. Guests included: Candice Swanenpoel, Adriana Lima, Doutzen Kroes, Adrienne Bailon, Ana Paula Araujo, Alexandra Richards, Erin Lucas, Devorah Rose, Fonsworth Bentley, Genevieve Jones, Isabelli Fontana, Kristian Laliberte, Robert Buckley and Louise Roe. Hosted by Ciroc Vodka and Sparkling Nuvo, guests partied in honor of VS’s new What is Sexy? lingerie collection.
Victoria’s Secret and all of her angels celebrated “The Return to Glamour” on Tuesday night with the grand opening of their Lexington Avenue flagship store. VS models Selita E. Banks, Heidi Klum, Alessandra Ambrosio, Marisa Miller, Doutzen Kroes, Miranda Kerr attended the opening party with Victoriafriends dressed to the nines per usual. Selita’s blush-toned ruffled mini, Heidi’s strapless bedazzled Louis Vuitton LBD, and Miranda’s red bandage frock proved that being glamorous is something these gals have already mastered.

Let us catch our breath before we begin. Ok, ready, here we go.
We began our night with dinner at La Esquina with Matt Levine. Matt is the owner/designer of Steelo Clothing but we weren’t there to discuss clothes. He was excited to tell us about his newest venture, The Eldridge. The Eldridge is the name of the new club that is going to be opening within the next couple of weeks. We know you’ve all heard this before, but we believe this time it’s true, the Eldridge is going to be unlike any club in New York City. The Eldridge is going to be more exclusive and luxurious than anything currently out there. It is going to raise the bar on New York nightlife. And that’s all we can say…for now.
