Favorite Victoria's Secret Angels!

The Victoria Secret's Fashion Show was on last night. At ten o'clock, two hours later than last year, due to complants from parents that this material is too racy for some younger viewers. Or at least that's what my VS Pink ethusiast sister told me this morning. But whether you loved it or hated it, it was a show-stopping event. Katy Perry was brilliant and all the angels looked amazing. Let's a take a look at some of our favorite angels, past and present.

One of the newest additions to the VS runway, Chanel Iman is a pro at walking. She has graced hundreds of runways in Paris, Milan, and New York. She is an all-American girl: born in Atlanta, Gerogia and raised in Los Angelos. But with a name like Chanel, this girl was destined for the fashion world. It was so sweet seeing her get her wings. :)

Ms. Miranda Kerr is one of many who are currently part of the fashion baby boom. Her baby, the father being her husband Orlando Bloom, is said to be delivered in January 2011. This Austrailiam beauty is known for her sweet dimples in her cheeks and her long run as a VS model. Unfortunately, Miranda wasn't there to rock the runway. Being pregnant and all.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley isn't too  familiar with American audience but that won't last for long. She was chosen to repalce Megan Fox in the popular Tranfsromers series, the latest of which will be blasting into theaters summer 2011. This British beauty has been in ads for Burberry and Victoria's Secret.

Heidi Klum in Jenny Packham [left] and a fitted bedazzled blazer [right].

One of the best known VS models. She's transformed her success on the runway to an even more successful brand. She hosts the ever popular Project Runway on Lifetime. And she and British singer Seal have four children together and Ms. Klum became a naturalized citizen of the United States in 2008. Unforntuately Ms. Klum has retired her wings. But we will miss her.

The lineup of angels doesn't stop there but I don't have the space, nor the time, to list every angel. That would be unrealistic. I picked my faves. Who is your favorite angel? Comment below. I'd love to hear from you!

Chanel in Soho

I know. I know. I'm a week behind. With fashion week happening there is just so much to blog about. It's insane! :) But on Thursday Karl Lagerfeld was present when Chanel re-opened their store in donwtown Soho. It was filled with celebrities dressed to impress the fashion icon himself.

But incase you haven't seen the star-studded crowd that attended here's a quick glance at my faves.

Leighton Meester in classic black. I think she looks so sophisticated and I'm so glad that Gossip Girl is back. Ever since the Pretty Little Liars' summer finale I've been deprived of good high school drama. But since Jenny is the only one still in high school I don't think I can actually classify it as high school drama. But you know what I mean.


Speaking of Gossip Girl here's Blake Lively. She took the printed, colorful route. Quite the opposite from her co-star. But with confidence and stunning features, she continues to look effortless in anything.

Alexa Chung. When I think Alexa I always seem to think Chanel. :) This spunky Brit has an amazing sense of humor and style--which the two aren't always mutally exclusive. Her collaboration with Madwell is now available in stores and online. And from what I've seen its really cute. I might go more indepth on a later post.

Chanel Iman. I'll refrain from making a lame Chanel-Chanel joke. :) I know you must be proud. But her dress is gorgeous. The shimmer is fun and flirty. And that bold, red Chanel bag is the perfect accesory. I think its so cute how she's cradelling the bag for the picture. She definately knows how to sell a product, no wonder why she makes the big bucks. Hahaha. Just kidding.

Rachel Bilson. One of my style icons. She's always so confident and put together. Although I'm not crazy about the white fringe dress--I would never be able to pull this off. I think my friends would just laugh at me and tell me to go change. She pulls it off somehow. I wish the fringe didn't go past the edge of the dress but she still looks good. What are your thoughts? Yay? Nay?

Diane Kruger, Molly Simms, Paula Patton, and tons of other stars were in attendance. But I didn't want to make this too long. Especially since I think most people have seen these pictures. I blogged about them anyway because I just love Chanel. There was no way I wasn't going to blog about it. :)
