Just wanted to share a few pics from the Victoria's Secret #whatissexy event, Emil and I attended recently. The event took place at the Shutters hotel in Santa Monica, on one of those gorgeous sunny days. We got to sip on cocktails, enjoy manis & pedis by Butter London and of course mingle with Victoria's Secret Angels - Adriana Lima, Lily Aldridge and Behati Prinsloo. A big Victoria's Secret fan, it was such a pleasure to meet the girls in person and chat about the 2013 What Is Sexy list. You can check it out by CLICKING HERE. My personal favorites are the Beach hair wave spray & VS Makeup color drama lipstick in "Whisper". How about you guys, what are your favorite What Is Sexy products?

Keep On Smiling,
Love, Annabelle

I also wanted to share a few of my favorites from another trip to Palm Springs, Emil and I recently took. Both of us love coming here, so we were ecstatic when we finally managed to carve out some time to get away. Don't know about you guys, but I can definitely do the lounging-by-the-pool, tanning, sipping-on-a-cocktail thing anytime:), especially if the pool is as nice as it is at the hotel Riviera Palm Springs. Of course, I may have overdone it just a bit this time! Don't really know if you can tell from the pics, but I managed to get a pretty good sunburn on my back and shoulders. Definitely using better sunscreen next time!:)

In other news, I am super excited to announce Club Monaco, one of my favorite brands of all time, teamed up with Tumblr to launch a first ever online look-book. Growing up in Toronto, Club Monaco was always a great source of inspiration and definitely my go-to store for anything from perfect cotton tees and delicate silk dresses to best-fitting jeans and pants. Club Monaco's Culture Club Tumblr blog will allow you to become your own fashion editor and let you see and share looks months before they will be available in stores! So definitely check it out by CLICKING HERE

Keep on smiling,

Love,
