Interestingly enough, not only has Brazilian Victoria's Secret Angel Lais Ribeiro become more fluent speaking English, but she seems to now have a newfound self-assuredness and confidence that may have something to do with her new romance. For some models, just growing up, getting older and maturing can have the same effect. Whatever it is, things sure do look great for Lais this year: handsome boyfriend who plays professional international basketball, new Victoria's Secret 'Angel' status and several magazine covers and editorials!
When Lais Ribeiro showed up at the 2015 Victoria's Secret after-party held at Tao Downtown (last year the event was held at Club Lavo across the street), she obviously came to slay wearing a sexy crochet jumpsuit ensemble fitted to show off her fabulous, sexy figure. Not only was she dressed to impress and turn heads, but she attended with her gorgeous boyfriend by her side. He is not only a great accessory but a long-time acquaintance and fixture in her life.

There is nothing like a physical injury during the preparation of a major event. It sure can not only get your head out of the game but can prevent you from participating altogether. Last season during rehearsals for the 2012 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, Lais Ribeiro twisted her ankle so severely that she could not walk at all on the runway. I was looking for her when the show aired and was disappointed that she was not in the model lineup at all.
When I tuned in the following year to CBS to watch the 2013 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, I was delighted to see that Brazilian model Lais Ribeiro was back on the VS runway! Looks as if her ankle healed quite nicely. Just fab!
