Doutzen tweeted afterwards, "OMG have you ever done spinning before? We just did the #SupermodelCycle charity bike ride @SoulCycle NYC! EXHAUSTED." California girl Lindsay wasn't bothered much by the exercise, tweeting, "What's better than a really good workout? Raising money for cancer research at the same time!! I had a blast @soulcycle and @VictoriasSecret." Namibian beauty Behati  wrote, "Oh it's on! @VictoriasSecret @ErinHeatherton" I wonder if there was a bit of friendly competition going on between those two.

Victoria's Secret to open flagship store in London




Victoria's Secret
Next year, Victoria's Secret will open a flagship store in London. The store on New Bond Street will be the first in the UK, eventually the chain is planning on opening more stores all across the country, as part of a global expansion plan.

Martyn R. Redgrave, a Victoria's Secret executive, told WWD, 'The mall-based stores will be large box, A-mall-types units with full assortments, but they're in the UK, not the US, and we have to learn. That's what we're looking to do as we expand, in the UK in particular."

Victoria's Secret was founded in 1977, when Roy Raymond started the chain, as he felt embarassed looking for lingerie for his wife in a department store environment. Today the company is owned by Limited Brands, that also owns La Senza. There are around 1000 stores in the US, Canada and the Middle East.

It's still in the midst of summer, but Victoria's Secret has already released photos of Victoria's Angel Candice Swanepoel in Halloween costumes. Well, costumes... Halloween underwear. The 22-year old South-African model is photographed in some very sexy outfits for the lingerie line's new Halloween collection, from sexy sailor, to devil, to sexy santa, it all looks fabulous on Candice.

Candice, who recently was under heavy scrutiny for having dropped a significant amount of weight, also confirms that she's back to her old weight. Candice herself has always insisted that she's healthy, despite her size and the lost pounds. In an interview with ABC News during New York Fashion week this year, she said, "Actually, this year my problem has been more putting on weight and getting muscle on, becuase it's been really busy. I've been travelling around like crazy. I get skinnier if I'm very busy." Luckily, these shots show that she's no longer as skinny as she was three months ago, when she looked like a shadow of her former self.

Candice was discovered at age 15 at a Durban flea market and has since appeared on the covers of Vogue and Elle, and has featured in campaigns for Diesel, Nike and Guess. She's also a runway model and besides Victoria's Secret she has also walked shows for Tommy Hilfiger, Dolce and Gabbanna, and Diane von Furstenberg. Candice has been a Victoria's Angel since April 2010.
