Having been a Victoria's Secret Angel since 2000, Adriana Lima is well rehearsed in the art of being alluring.
We caught up with the Brazillian model to discover her plans for February 14.
What is your favourite thing to do on Valentine’s day?
I think it depends on your type of Valentine and relationship. You can either do a fun night out or a sexy night in.
Do you have a favourite romantic beauty look?
I think a smoky eye with a nude lip is very sexy
What is the perfect outfit to wear to a romantic restaurant?
The most important part is feeling sexy underneath your clothes. For this, wearing something like the new Very Sexy Flirt Demi Bra and matching panty
Who is your biggest style icon?
I’d have to say Sophia Loren and Marilyn Monroe
The Victoria’s Secret show was in London in 2014, how often do you visit the city?
I’m sad to say I don’t get to visit often. However, I made it a point to have a two day layover there in December on my way back to Dubai because I love it so much. It was a short but sweet trip.
What do you like to do when you’re in London?
I really like going shopping while I’m there. The style is different and I always appreciate the uniqueness.
What is your favourite style of lingerie?
Something black and lacy.
What is your favourite romantic film?
I know it’s a Christmas movie, but I love “It’s a Wonderful Life.” I think it has very sweet and romantic parts to it – “I’ll give you the moon.”
Have you ever been on a truly awful date? Can you tell us about it?
I cannot say that I have, but I would say that a horror date for me would be someone with no personality.
What is the gift you’d least like to receive for Valentine’sday?
I think not receiving a gift would be the worst thing. I would appreciate even a box of chocolates, but do something!
What are your plans for this Valentine’s day?
I will be celebrating with two special people – my daughters, Valentina and Sienna.
