“I am a Sagittarian with strange tastes, and a total family person,” says Angelica Erthal. “I’m a girl who believes that everything is possible,” she continues. This time last year, Angelica Erthal opened the Prada Fall/Winter 2016 show as an exclusive. Since then, the Brazilian model has starred in Prada’s Fall/Winter 2016 campaign, been photographed by Steven Meisel, and walked the runway for the likes of Chanel, Marni, Missoni, Louis Vuitton, Givenchy, and Kenzo. “Good energy and shopping [inspire me,]” she jokes.

MY IDEA OF HAPPINESS:
I think happiness is very difficult to define. It’s probably when you love your inner self. If you open your eyes, you can see how much it actually takes for all this to happen. Make your happiness, do not put it behind desire or change your decisions too easily. Be happy and love your family, your friends, and there will be no problem. Giving love will bring you love back.

ONE LAST FAVOR I’D LIKE TO ASK:
Help the next person. When you help someone, you start to see how your own problems are insignificant compared to people who are really sick or in need.
