20 Reasons We Can’t Get Enough of Candice Swanepoel

The Victoria’s Secret Angel truly is a gift from heaven.

Ever since beloved model and Victoria’s Secret Angel Candice Swanepoel graced the cover of the newly-redesigned Maxim one year ago, we’ve been unable to take our eyes off of her. And why should we? The angel’s proven that she knows exactly how to have a good time, from frolicking with fellow model Behati Prinsloo to #FreeingTheNipple on idyllic beaches. Wherever she goes, we will follow.

Below, we pay tribute to our former cover girl and one of our favorite angels.

She looks stunning in black and white…

She’s always down to #FreeTheNipple:

The ocean was the best place,That was what she loved most. It was a feeling of freedom like no other, a feeling of communion with all the other places and creatures the water touched. 💙 #annbrashares @themermaidfiles @davidbellemere @cgonzalezbeauty @daniellepriano

She loves animals as much as we do:
