BERNICE CALDEIRA

Beauty is an ecstasy; it is as simple as hunger. There is really nothing to be said about it. It is like the perfume of a rose: you can smell it and that is all. ~William Somerset Maugham

Hi Bernice.Great to have you on PIM.What are some of the highs and lows in your modelling career thus far, Great experiences to share?
bernice:My lows would be that the modelling industry was extremely quiet in Winter. My highs would definitely be, the meeting of talented designers and getting to wear some of the most stunning outfits made. The fact of meeting new people and getting out of one’s boundaries is also an ultimate high for me.

So you are Portuguese, Were you disappointed at Portugal in 2010.The Portuguese fans were awesome.
How was the World Cup?
Well I wasn’t really disappointed in the games that Portugal played, I was however a bit thrown back with their behaviour in regards to losing, I really felt that they could have behaved in a better manner. However the fans were phenomenal, they all stood together – united and supportive. The World Cup was definitely something so different, it brought about such a vibe and well a extraordinary fever.

PIM has met you at the FHM Models 2010.How was the experience. Are you entering this year?
The experience was great and helped me a lot as a person as well as it opened quite a lot of doors for me. I will definitely be entering again this year.

Whilst we on the topic, How important is a guy’s dress sense to you? So PIM can spruce up and impress someone like you. What’s your ideal man?
Dress sense is very important because it shows a lot about a person as an individual.

If Bernice Caldeira wanted to impress PIM on a date.What would you do.Detials please from dressing up to activities
Dressed in a comfy jean, loose fitting t-shirt and a pair of extra comfy sneakers, we would head off on a 4 wheeler outride, taking us to a river bank, where there will be a picnic set up. With the most tasty savouries and fruits etc, we would brunch and spend the afternoon talking etc. Once we done with the relaxing we will drive back to catch a quick clean up and off for the outdoor massages we go. We will enjoy a few cocktails at the pool to gather energy to go and dine at the best restaurant and dressed to the tee in a stunning Little Black Number, once the dinning is done with it’ll be time to go out and paint the town RED!!!!!

Thank you so much Bernice.Best of Luck.
