Immediately upon arriving to Paris earlier today, Gisele Bundchen headed straight to the shops to spend a little of her hard-earned cash.
The Brazilian supermodel first fueled up with a bite to eat at Angelina’s restaurant before paying a visit to l’Eclaireur’s shop.
As for her Patriots QB boyfriend Tom Brady, it seems that he’s well on his way to recovery from a season-ending knee injury he sustained at the beginning of the NFL season.
According to New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft, “Once he focuses, his attitude is so good. He’s moving onto next year. He’s working hard, and thank goodness the surgery went well. He’ll be returning to Boston shortly and doing his rehab there. He’s focusing on being as good as he can be next year. He’s doing what he has to do. He really has a great attitude. I’m not sure I could be as up as he is.”

Harley-Davidson has chosen an unconventional way to launch its new high performance motorcycle, by partnering with American supermodel Marisa Miller.
The new campaign plays on the pairing of Miller’s sophisticated, sexy style and Harley-Davidson’s “brute strength,” the company said.
The 2009 V-Rod Muscle is the latest addition to Harley-Davidson’s high-performance line of V-Rod motorcycles and features a powerfully sculpted new physique with a contemporary, urban style. Miller’s father and uncle rode Harley’s.
TV spots began airing yesterday that show Miller stretched atop a sleek, black V-Rod Muscle. Print ads will appear in lifestyle magazines such as GQ, Esquire, Complex, Road & Track and Trader. The ads incorporate SnapTell technology, which lets readers photograph the ad with their mobile phones to get exclusive content.
At Harley-Davidson’s YouTube channel people can watch a behind-the-scenes video of the Marisa Miller V-Rod Muscle photo shoot. Motorcycle bloggers and Harley-Davidson fans and friends on Facebook and MySpace were exclusively tipped off to the campaign. The video is also available.
“The V-Rod Muscle stands out in a crowd of copies and generic motorcycle profiles,” said Mark-Hans Richer, senior vice president and chief marketing officer for Harley-Davidson, in a statement. “It stretches the very definition of what it means to be a Harley-Davidson motorcycle.”

Stepping out last night, it looks like model Kate Moss was in a bit of a hurry.
Clearly she had forgotten to add one important item of clothing to her chic all-black outfit – a very necessary bra.
The 34-year-old model revealed rather more than necessary on a night out at the members club in a sheer black babydoll dress.
Kate was seen leaving the Ivy Club in London’s Mayfair and unfortunately the sheer fabric of her minidress – which tied under her bust – exposed her braless bust.
The designer and model was out with friends in the evening, and left the restaurant wearing huge Jackie Onassis style dark glasses.
Clearly she could have done with a bit more protection elsewhere.
Kate has reportedly decided to give up the booze and kerb her partying ways in a bid to save her relationship with musician Jamie Hince.
She was all smiles as she walked arm in arm with Hince yesterday.
The pair were spotted looking very much like a couple outside the RS&A gallery in east London where they were attending the launch of Tracey Emin’s new Travelling Chess exhibition.
This should be fantastic news for restaurants and clothes stores in the capital.
It means that she will have even more money to splash around.

It was a case of “to Russia with love” today as the stars of the new Bond movie Quantum of Solace arrived in Moscow on Monday.
This is their first stop on a worldwide tour with the film due for actual release in Russia on 6 November.
All eyes today were on Olga Kurylenko, the supermodel turned actress, who becomes a Bond girl for the spy’s 22nd movie mission.
Olga says that her character is a force to be reckoned with:
“Camille is a quite strong woman and she’s very independent. She carries a wound which comes from her childhood, because there’s something very terrible that happened to her when she was a little girl and basically everything she focuses on is revenge connected to this event and basically that’s her motivation in the movie.”
The Bond movie took Kurylenko to such exotic locations such as Panama, Mexico and Chile, a world away from her humble beginnings in a provincial town in southern Ukraine.
Located on the northern coast of the Sea of Azov, Berdyansk is a small town of less than 130,000 people.
And it was in School 16 that Olga’s acting career first started.
The School’s deputy director Nina Monenko proudly shows visitors black and white photos of Olga clad in a dark-brown dress, a white apron, and two big white bows in her hair.
Kurylenko, lived with her mother, a painting teacher at her school, and grandmother, a doctor in a three-room apartment not far from the centre of the town.
Acting soon became a great passion and teachers talk of the young Olga playing various roles in school productions.
Another, black-and-white photo, shows Kurylenko during a theatre performance half-sitting, half-lying on a chair, squeezed between two other students and munching on what appears to be an apple.
Her star rose after she was spotted by a model scout in the subway in Moscow, where she was on vacation.
At the time she was too young to start work and returned to Berdyansk to finish her schooling.
And Kurylenko, who also appeared in action movies Hitman and Max Payne, is still touched to hear of her old teachers, even though she rarely gets to go home.
The girl from humble beginnings now lives in Paris and is set to become one of the most famous women in the world.
Quantum of Solace is having it’s world premiere at the Odeon Leicester Square in London on 29 October.
It is scheduled to open in New Zealand on 4 December 2008 .
