She is working so much now! Any reason in particular, you think?

[nothingless]

Not sure! I hope it's because she maybe surprised a few people during Fashion Week F/W 2010, walking some prestegious shows. Though, that said, she didn't sit still last year either!

[AnaBBarrosFan]

It's true that she didn't sit still, lol. All of this new work is fabulous, and it just seems like she's all over this place recently (in a positive context of course). BTW, while I'm here, thanks for the great Halloween candids.

[billarruda]

Another reason is the return of the sultry models.

-Hercules

"It was Katie Grand, the 'LOVE Magazine', who asked those nails. Yesterday I was recording a video of the magazine in partnership with Versace, directed by James Lima. " And what, Anne?

Miuccia Prada was the one who made the video artist to fashion editor, then to say satisfied with what he did for her brand on the short film "Trembled Blossoms" .

Better be an epic shoot, or I'm going to be pissed.

Thanks for the info, hun.

[AnaBBarrosFan]

Hey, so seeing as we made a list not too long ago about work was to come out...

What did come out, what hasn't, and what is pending on the horizon? Sadly, I haven't been keeping track lately (I'm horrible fan to my favorite model lol), so I feel VERY out of the loop.

^ I think the only thing we haven't seen yet, is her GQ UK cover! i-D is out, I've seen a tiny version of her picture, just waiting for a good scan.

Two bits of Marks & Spencer news:

M&S ‘Autumn 2010’ ad wins UTalkMarketing People’s Choice

The Autumn 2010 TV campaign for M&S has won this week’s UTalkMarketing People’s Choice.

The work sees the retailer’s raft of famous faces sees the girls taking a light hearted journey through this season’s key trends.

The celebrity line up, now in their second season together, features Lisa Snowdon, Twiggy, Ana Beatriz Barros, and VV Brown.

Viewers should also look out for a very special appearance from Dannii Minogue.

The TV is being supported by print across various media titles and billboards at various locations throughout the UK.

The soundtrack accompanying the ad is “To Be Real” by Cheryl Lynn

The advert came tops in the UTalkMarketing People’s Choice – our weekly poll, held in collaboration with OMD Snapshots where we ask 1,000 members of the public to vote for their favourite advert currently in the marketplace.

It received almost one quarter (23 per cent) of the vote, placing it ahead of the first runner-up, when participants were asked, ‘Which of the adverts made you want to buy the product or service advertised?’

M&S shares recover to rise 4.5pc

Shares in British retailer Marks & Spencer (M&S) recovered strongly from an early morning dip yesterday to close up almost 4.5pc after it beat market expectations during the second quarter with like-for-like sales in the UK up 5.3pc.

M&S chief executive Marc Bolland said that customers are "returning to quality", but the chain noted that trading conditions in Ireland and Greece remain difficult.

Group sales were 6.5pc higher during the period, with like-for-like food sales in the UK up 3.7pc. Mr Bolland said an M&S advertising campaign that features Brazilian supermodel Ana Beatriz Barros helped to attract an extra 1.8 million shoppers through the retailer's outlets. He added that M&S has sold three million meal deals for £10 (€11.40) each in the UK within the past five weeks.

M&S, however, told investors that trading conditions are likely to become more challenging.

"Consumers' disposable incomes will come under greater pressure from increased VAT rates and public spending cuts," said a trading statement from the group.
