Adriana Lima Models with a big name don't come around often. In the business, there are beautiful people coming and going daily, some with one major physical flaw that keeps them from a career of big money, some with attitude that holds back success. Every once and a while, there are the Adriana Limas of the world.
Starting at the ripe age of 15, Lima won Ford's "Supermodel of Brazil" contest and gained enough exposure to eventually sign her with Elite Model Management. Since then, Lima has been a spokesmodel for Maybelline and a Victoria's Secret Angel. As of 2007, she was the 4th highest paid model in the world -- and trust me, it's big money. So, with all the fame and glory, especially from her work with Victoria's Secret, Lima is on call for new product launches and of course the fabulous
Victoria's Secret fashion show every year (this year December 3rd).
Adriana recently launched
Dream Angels Wish, the newest fragrance in the Victoria's Secret Dream Angels Collection, from the flagship store in New York City (see photo top left). Dream Angels Wish costs between 40 and 60 bucks and has a fruity note along with scents of grapefruit, mandarin flower and vanilla creme -- sounds scrumptious! The scent is also in the form of lotion and body wash and of course, it endorsed by the supermodel face of Adriana Lima, one lucky lady. Looks like a perfect gift for the holidays, and of course, there will be a special box set for all your friends!
