Merry ChristMoss: Kate slips into some lingerie for new ad campaign

It might be cold outside but Kate Moss doesn't appear to be having any trouble keeping warm.

Draped across an unmade bed, the supermodel slipped into some underwear and stockings, posing seductively for lingerie brand Valisere.

And the 37-year-old is proving she is still in enviable shape.

Looking flawless in the Triumph brand's designs, Kate will no doubt help shift the underwear in time for Christmas - as hundreds of men rush out to create a similar look for their partners at home.

The model does her best Brigitte Bardot impression with backcombed, tousled hair and come-to-bed stare.

This is not the first time Kate has modeled for the brand.

Last year, Kate appeared in a similar shoot, looking equally glamorous.

The mother-of-one recently came under fire for 'copying' a jewelery ad campaign.

Kate was modeling her own collection of jewellery designed for French brand Fred, which contains a number of pieces inspired by her many tattoos.

The pictures were taken by Sonia Sieff and show Kate in a sexy 'come-hither' pose with tousled blonde hair.

Last year, Kate was photographed by Peter Lindbergh in a campaign for David Yurman's Spring 2011 collection in which she also appears with tousled hair and sultry pose.

The similarities between the pictures have been slammed by Kate's previous employer who say they are used to people copying them.

'The Fred campaign is embarrassingly similar to the one David Yurman ran a year ago,' a spokesperson for Yurman said.

But judging by these pictures, it seems wispy hair and sultry poses are Kate's signature look.

Tanned and toned she looked at her prize winning best with not an inch to pinch on the South American model.

The brunette beauty enjoyed some time with her three-year-old son Aron Ferrari.

The toddlers father is her former boyfriend, footballer Matteo Ferrari.


Although she never won the Miss Venezuela 2002 contest, her figure left a lasting impression with the press.

Aida is a big star in Italy where she has graced the covers of Maxim and GQ.

In addition to her relationship with Matteo, she has been romantically linked to footballer Adrian Mutu.

Ex Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi reportedly once told her: 'With you I'd go anywhere.

After swinging back into London town for the Christmas break it seems Prince Harry has been meeting up with some old acquaintances.

The young royal has reportedly rekindled his relationship with lingerie model Florence Brudenell-Bruce whom he broke up with in August this year.

According to Made In Chelsea star Spencer Matthews, the couple have been spending some intimate time together.

Spencer claimed to The People newspaper that he knows 25-year-old Florence well and has heard that she and the prince are still romantically linked.

He told the newspaper: 'I know Flee quite well and from what I've heard there's still something going on.

The reality TV star continued: 'She and Harry have enjoyed a few nights in together with a DVD on the sofa - stuff we all do.'

The blonde haired model features on the front cover of this month's Tatler and speaks about her brief dalliance with the 27-year-old prince.

She explained that she found the public attention quite 'full on' and that had dies down since they stopped seeing each other.

In her first interview since the split Florence, who grew up in Fulham, south-west London, revealed that she is keen to pursue a different career as 'one day everything will drop and I won’t be able to earn my living in a bikini.'

In the shoot she swaps her standard converse and skinny jeans for some feminine designs, featuring sheer fabrics and flattering cuts, with her long blonde hair naturally styled.

Prince Harry ended his short romance with Flee after just two months and sources revealed that the prince just didn't want to be 'tied down'.

Miss Brudenell-Bruce, who used to go out with Formula 1's Jenson Button, is said to have been visited by Harry at her father's £2.5million home in Notting Hill, West London.

6 Top Health Threats in Men


Statistically, more males are born than females every year. Surprisingly, women are healthier than men. Men take the lead for all known diseases in the medical field except for Alzheimer's Disease. 

The top 6 health threats in men are:
Prostate Cancer
Lung Cancer
Suicide/Depression
Cardiovascular Disease
Diabetes
Erectile Dysfunction
Prostate Cancer

It is predicted that about 200,000 American men will develop prostate cancer this year. Although one in six men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in his epoch, studies indicate that only one in 35 will die from it. One in 10,000 men under the age of 40 will develop prostate cancer, whereas, one in eight men between the ages of 60 and 80 will suffer from it. These figures suggest that prostate cancer is likely to impact the lives of a substantial proportion of men.

Prostate cancer is diagnosed through the biopsy of the prostate gland. An early diagnosis of the PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) level being abnormal will require further testing to see if there is cancer. Aside from the PSA levels, there are other less common symptoms of prostate cancer that men should watch out for:

Blood in the urine
Blood in the semen
New-onset erectile dysfunction (impotence)
Bone pain (especially in the lower back, hips or ribs)
Loss of bladder control
Quick Facts about Prostate Cancer:

Many men die with prostate cancer, but not from it.
Early baldness may be a sign of high prostate cancer risk.
Men whose mothers or sisters have developed breast cancer are also at increased risk for prostate cancer.

Lung Cancer

Attributed mainly to the use of tobacco, lung cancer has plagued approximately 170,000 Americans every year. Lung cancer, most of the time, does not manifest symptoms until its advanced stage, making it difficult to diagnose early.

Quick Facts about Lung Cancer:

Recently, there has been a decline in cases amongst men but the ailment is becoming more common amongst women.
The reason for the hike in cases amongst women is the increase in the number of women who began to smoke in recent years.
Cancer may form in the lungs or in the bronchi (the air passageways leading into the lungs).
There are two major types of lung cancer; small cell lung cancer and non-small cell lung cancer. This is determined by the way the cells appear under a microscope.

Suicide / Depression

Depression is an emotional disturbance that affects the entire body and overall health.

According to a study done in 2010, approximately 5 million men were treated for depression. The actual figure is likely to be greater because men simply refuse to admit being depressed. They usually resort to alcohol and drugs to overcome their depression instead of seeking professional help.

Developed countries have the worst rates of depression. 15 percent of men in these countries suffer from severe depression. Just 20 percent of these severe cases receive treatment and 15 percent are likely to attempt suicide.

Top Causes of Suicide / Depression:

Divorce
Unemployment
Forced retirement
Separation from close family members
Bankruptcy
Quick Facts on Suicide / Depression:

Those with depression have four times the risks of a heart attack compared to those who do not have depression.
Depression is hereditary.
Depression affects 121 million people throughout the world. Less than 25 percent of those affected have access to effective treatment options.
Although depression is recognized as a mental illness, it certainly affects the physical part of the body. It weakens the immune system, increasing the risks for other diseases to develop.


Cardiovascular Disease

Cardiovascular disease is the world's top killer, claiming at least 17.1 million lives every year.

Since 1900, Americans have been plagued by cardiovascular disease. Doctors have concluded that men experience heart attacks approximately 10 years earlier in life than women do.

Quick Facts on Cardiovascular Disease:

More than 2,500 Americans die from heart disease each day.
About 250,000 people die of heart attacks each year before they reach a hospital.
Almost 6 million hospitalizations are due to cardiovascular disease each year.
The risk of cardiovascular disease can be reduced by avoiding tobacco use, unhealthy diet, physical inactivity, and alcohol.


Diabetes

According to the World Health Organization, there are 246 million people in the world living with diabetes.

Most men experienced the typical symptoms of frequent urination and thirst before finally seeing the doctor. Excess glucose becomes toxic to blood vessels and nerves in the entire body.

Quick Facts on Diabetes:

3.9 billion dollars in emergency room costs are attributed to diabetes.
Approximately 71,000 lower limb amputations per year are due to diabetes.
Americans lose about 1,600 gallons of blood every year as a result of glucose monitoring blood tests.
Besides amputation, diabetes can lead to other complications like blindness, gangrene, and end-stage renal disease.

Erectile Dysfunction (ED)

This disease has plagued approximately 20 million American men and about 1 in 10 adult males suffers from long-term ED.

Men with diabetes tend to develop erectile dysfunction 10 to 15 years earlier than men without diabetes. Erectile dysfunction is also believed to be caused by atherosclerosis, the same process known to cause heart attacks and strokes.

Quick Facts on Erectile Dysfunction:

Long hours of cycling increase the risk of developing ED.
Obese men are more likely to have ED.
Stress and anxiety are leading causes of temporary ED.
Every man at least once in his life has a problem with attaining erection.
Men with diabetes are likely to have ED.

Killing Your Sex Life with Too Much Sweets


Did you know that uncontrollable consumption of sugar can eventually kill your sex life? Indeed, researchers have determined that high concentration of sugar in your bloodstream can switch off the gene that controls your sex hormones. Excess glucose and fructose are stored as fat lipids after they are metabolized in the liver. The synthesis of these excess fats deactivates the SHBG genes (Sex Hormone Binding Globulin) which control your testosterone and estrogen levels. 

The bioavailability of the sex hormones is greatly influenced by the levels of SHBG. The imbalance in these hormones may lead to deterioration of your sexual function. This also increases the chances of acne, polycystic ovaries, uterine cancer, heart disease, and infertility. Research also found that sugar can negatively impact your lipid profile. Anything that disrupts your lipid profile can lead to impotence and erectile dysfunction.

Aside from this harmful impact, sugar also has a negative effect on your eating habits. It provides a sudden boost of endorphin production, stimulating you to eat more than you should. The extra calories will make you put on extra pounds which are directly associated with lower testosterone and increased risks of erectile dysfunction. 

Most men are completely oblivious to the food that they are eating. Either they are aware of the sugar content and pretend to not know or they assume they know the content but because the numbers are not known to them, they continue to eat foods high in sugar content. 

Here is a list of foods with high sugar content that might be quietly killing your sex life: 

1. Original glazed doughnut - 10 grams

2. Vanilla ice cream - 17 grams

3. Starbucks caffe latte grande - 17 grams

4. Subway 6" sweet onion teriyaki chicken sandwich - 17 grams

5. Sweetened yogurt - 27 grams

6. Vitamin water - 33 grams

7. Coca-Cola Classic - 39 grams

8. Starbucks caffe vanilla frappucino grande - 58 grams
