Vogue’s 73 Questions

Several months ago, I watched Vogue’s 73 Questions with supermodel, Gisele Bündchen and thought it would be a great way to kick off the new year by doing a fun Vogue-related post!

In case you don’t know what 73 questions is, it’s a video interview series done by the Vogue team where they follow celebrities around their homes asking them questions. The great part is their answers are always quick to keep the interview rolling and you get to see their beautiful homes in the process of filming too!

If you’re interested in watching one, here’s the one I saw of Gisele.
