It's a sweltering, sunny afternoon, the sort of day that makes your skin glisten as soon as you step outside.

Her brunette tresses are parted down the middle and tied into a low, chic ponytail that shows off her perfectly winged eyeliner and oversized hoops. The gorgeous 26-year-old commands a room simply by entering it. But as we chat in the W South Beach's chic, cavernous lounge, I wholly understand why she was crowned Miss Universe 2012 (the first winning contestant to represent the United States in 15 years!).
