This week our Pinterest boards were buzzing with bikini bodies, red carpet looks, and British smiles. Candice Swanepoel's sexy St. Barts photo shoot steamed up more than just the camera lens, since her leopard-print number landed her POPSUGAR's fifth-most-shared picture of the week. Next up we had a Cannes Film Festival favorite, and it should be no surprise that the ultimate shopaholic took the lead. To see which pictures ranked in our top four pins, read more
Candice Swanepoel hit the beach on Saturday in several sexy bikinis for a Victoria's Secret photo shoot in St. Barts. She isn't the only VS Angel who is in town to model two-pieces — Lily Aldridge wore a bikini for a shoot on Thursday. Candice jetted off to the Caribbean after taking part in a cowboy-inspired editorial with fashion photographer Terry Richardson in Utah. She wouldn't reveal what the session was for, but she posted plenty of pictures of Utah's Monument Valley on her Instagram.

Victoria's Secret released the third issue of its 2013 swim catalog, titled "Summer of Sexy." And to showcase this latest round of swimwear, Candice Swanepoel, Alessandra Ambrosio, Erin Heatherton, and Maryna Linchuk took the beaches (once again) in an apropos lineup of very sexy looks. From the curve-enhancing push-up iterations — complete with gold-chain detailing and lacy overlays — to the retro ruffle-trimmed suits, to the sportier floral-printed bandeaus and bottoms, this is the kind of warm-weather styling that actually applies, albeit with a much sexier VS tinge, to the getaways we're planning for Spring break and beyond. So if you've got surf, sun, and sand on your mind — and in your sights — then click on for a preview of the swim catalog now, and shop the collection at Victoria's Secret.

Monochromatic dressing (that is, wearing one color head to toe) is all the rage right now, and here are three celebrities to show us how it's done in various hues. Victoria's Secret model Candice Swanepoel chose a crisp all-white ensemble during her recent travels, Girls actress Zosia Mamet opted for a cobalt pairing — a silky button-down with high-waist trousers, both by Honor — at the premiere of The Company You Keep in NYC, and Karolina Kurkova showed off her style chops in a red shorts suit at a Moncler event in Miami Beach. What's great about going monochromatic is that it takes the guessing game out of getting dressed. You pick one color you love and stick with it — easy enough, right? But despite it being a huge Spring trend, would you rock a monochromatic ensemble like these celebs did? Share your thoughts with us below.
Doutzen Kroes showed off her fit physique in a bikini to hit the pool with her son, Phyllon, in Miami yesterday. She was also sporting a bikini the day before to meet up with fellow Victoria's Secret Angel Candice Swanepoel on the beach. Phyllon joined both of the models in the sand as well, and the trio took a dip in the ocean and played under the sun.
Doutzen and her little one are spending time in Miami while her husband, Sunnery James, who is a DJ, played at Miami's Ultra Music Festival over the weekend. Candice is in Florida for work as well and modeled multiple bikinis during a flirty shoot for Victoria's Secret on Friday.
Candice Swanepoel donned multiple bikinis for a Victoria's Secret photo shoot in Miami Beach yesterday. She had fun showing off numerous two-pieces while laughing and dancing as she posed for photographers on the beach. She stripped down for more than just Victoria's Secret recently. Candice showed off her midriff in a crop top for the cover of Vogue España this month, too. Although she posed for Vogue, she has kept a busy schedule fulfilling her recent duties for Victoria's Secret. Candice was in a bikini again to link up with fellow angels Alessandra Ambrosio and Karlie Kloss at the launch Victoria's Secret's 2013 swim collection earlier this month.
A color story doesn't need to be overtly bright or multifaceted to be a good one — case in point: Zoe Saldana and Candice Swanepoel both turned heads in just one head-to-toe hue. Their looks have more than a sleek monochromatic color scheme in common: both Zoe and Candice also relied on slim cropped trousers and easy long-sleeved tops. The effect? Simple, minimalist silhouettes made the tonal play of both outfits the main event. Your road map — and shopping guide — to channeling the same ultrachic monochrome styles is right here:
After a long day poolside showing off the latest lineup of Victoria's Secret bikinis, the VS Angels slipped into their cocktail attire to play hostesses for the label's 2013 swim launch party. True to form, Alessandra Ambrosio, Candice Swanepoel, and Karlie Kloss brought a trio of looks that didn't short on the sex appeal. Alessandra showed her affinity for sequins and mini hemlines in a sliver-toned sheer and embellished Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti dress, which she finished with pointed-toe pumps. Candice, too, flaunted her famous figure, albeit in a calf-length, bold-printed Peter Pilotto sheath, which she complemented with an understated updo and simple black pumps. And, if you're thinking Karlie's cutout Cushnie et Ochs dress looks familiar, you'd be right; the supermodel stepped out in a very similar Michael Kors style at this year's Grammys — a testament to the fact that you don't mess with a good thing. While this cast of Angels could make just about anything look good, we're asking you to choose just one best dressed. Who gets your vote?
Alessandra Ambrosio and a Peter Pilotto-clad Candice Swanepoel linked up with Karlie Kloss, who donned a sexy Cushnie et Ochs dress, to celebrate Victoria's Secret's new swim collection at a party in Beverly Hills last night. The girls posed together and snapped pictures with Steven Tyler at the star-studded bash. The celebrations were well-deserved after a jam-packed day of promotional duties. Alessandra, Karlie, and Candice donned colorful bikinis at the VS launch earlier that morning, where we chatted with them about their favorite vacation spots and got tips on choosing the best bikini for your body.
While Karlie, Candice, and Alessandra had fun celebrating the brand's new 2013 swim line, their fellow Angel Miranda Kerr was not so fortunate. Miranda wore a neck brace yesterday while running errands in LA after reportedly being injured in a car accident on Monday.
Alessandra Ambrosio, Candice Swanepoel, and Karlie Kloss donned colorful bikinis to launch Victoria's Secret's 2013 swim collection in LA today. The Angels, all decked out in Victoria's Secret, playfully posed for the cameras in front of a pool as they prepared for a day of promotions. Later in the day, the girls will host a live Twitter chat with fans and take part in a meet and greet at the brand's Beverly Center store. The trek to the photo op wasn't a long one for Alessandra, who has been working on a new VS bikini campaign in Malibu over the past week. She, Candice, and Karlie are all great ambassadors for the sexy swimwear collection since they are all heavily featured in the new Victoria's Secret swimsuit catalog.
