You know it's the holidays when you get to see...

Victoria's Secret Fashion Show



This year, there were the most amount of wings ever used in any VS fashion show. It was also Chanel's first year for wearing wings: I was surprised she didn't get them earlier! Furthermore, there was six different parts this year: sports, PINK, heaven (with Akon), barnyard, wild animal, and romantic firework (with Katy Perry). All the girls were so gorgeous, nobody was looking at Katy or Akon, at all. They were looking at this:


As my roommate said, every girl will go throw up now.

I absolutely loved the accents of feathers used in the wings. There were a lot of gorgeous colored peacock feathers and bleached white feathers; the designer team for the show is extremely innovative when deciding what to use for the materials. There were many natural aspects, such as straw, feathers, and flowers, that made the show so much more beautiful. Check out HB's backstage video about the wings below:


He makes them feel so awkward.

I wonder how they walk on that glitter filled runway. I like my glitter, but this runway made it look almost too ridiculous... and the sequins did not help. I am not saying that their use of sequins with bras were as bad as any Ed Hardy get up but they could use a more innovative, or expensive, type of product.

Other things I had a problem with: The boxing getup/sports part/ugly soccerball beanbag thing. That whole segment regarding to sports was really, quite, well... awkward and disturbing. THIS and THIS are not hot.

I did love the romantic part though. It was well, romantic. The effortless look of sexiness was completely evident here: THIS and THIS are hot.

But if you were wondering why Miranda Kerr wasn't in the show... She's pregnant with a pirate's baby.

If you missed it the first time around, there will be moment to relive the fantasy lines on December 8th at 8/7C on the CW!
