Get Gorgeous with a Victoria’s Secret Angel

Yes, I’m talking to you 🙂 and also referring to the latest and greatest from Victoria’s Secret. They’ve successfully unveiled their Gorgeous Collection – and they did it with style.

Lindsay Ellingson, the face of the Gorgeous Collection, made her big debut to Chicago at Victoria’s Secret on Michigan Avenue. California native, Ellingson, has joined the ranks of a Victoria’s Secret “Angel”…. and I got to sit down with her while she was in town. She reminisced about how her and her mom used to shop at Victoria’s Secret when she was young. She said she always thought the Angels’ were so gorgeous, but she never expected to be one herself someday. She went on to say that in high school, she was the tall and skinny “nerd!”

Lindsay shared with me that the new Gorgeous Bra offers two styles, the “Eyelet and the Smooth” version. Her favorite is the pink and black eyelet, which adds a punch to your push-up! Ellingson showed me how soft the padding is on the new Gorgeous bra. I even got to take one home to try it out for myself … and I give it two HUGE thumbs up! It really is super soft too! Ellingson then showed me how there’s 4 different ways to wear the Gorgeous Push-Up. My favorite way is “low-back” for all those summer dresses that I never have the right bra for. It can be so difficult to find that perfect bra that fits you just right… and I don’t know about you, but once I find  that perfect bra… I wear it until it falls apart!!!

Lindsay also told me how much she enjoys traveling with her career. I asked her where’s the most gorgeous place she’s ever been, and she said, “Necker Island! I was there for a shoot last year, and I loved it there.”  Speaking of traveling, Ellingson’s jet-setting career sent her directly to New York City for another photo-shoot, right after her media blitz in Chicago!!

Victoria’s Secret opened their doors on March 29th to several lucky shoppers that got to take a photo with Ellingson. The event at 830 North Michigan Avenue also included  mini-makeovers, while featuring four stunning options from the Victoria’s Secret’s Attractions beauty line. My favorite fragrance is the “Wild One”… it seriously smells SO GOOD!!! Also, the shoppers got to indulge in free ‘love-reading’ sessions with a tarot reader.

The Michigan Avenue Victoria’s Secret location often plays host to the stunning Angels’, so if you missed Lindsay Ellingson, then check back soon to see when you can meet the next Angel in Chicago.  Check out the photo to the right with Lindsay Ellingson and I… she was SO TALL. I’m 5’8″, and as you can see in the photo below, the beauty towers over me (well…. she was wearing 5-inch heels too!). Enjoy the video below of the fantastic event at Victoria’s Secret & my conversation with the lovely Angel, Lindsay Ellingson.
