'School project with Anja': The South American hot-spot celebrated the annual Carnival festival between February 8–12, which is no doubt what expressive Anja presented for her class in Santa Monica

Sealed with a kiss: The doting mother-of-two made sure her mini-me's mask was on straight after affectionately smooching her nose

The South American hot-spot celebrated the annual Carnival festival between February 8–12, which is no doubt what expressive Anja presented for her class in Santa Monica.

The gorgeous mother-of-two matched her daughter in a bright yellow jumper, baby-blue skinny jeans, and Aztec-printed flats.

The last time a Victoria's Secret Angel was photographed wearing a feathered headdress, the lingerie brand had to pull the offensive image from its televised 17th annual fashion show.

Brazilian beauty: Ambrosio just landed on the March cover of Vogue Brasil

Just the sight of Midwestern model Karlie Kloss in a Native American headdress, suede vest, skirt, and turquoise jewellery deeply offended both Native Appropriations and For Accurate Indigenous Representation Media (F.A.I.R.).

Not seen Wednesday was Alessandra's fiancé of five years, businessman Jamie Mazur, and the couple's nine-month-old son Noah.

The longtime engaged pair were last spotted having a romantic date night on Saturday at the Marc Tetro Art Gallery Event in West Hollywood.

Ambrosio recently modeled in the Bruce Weber for Carine Roitfeld's bi-annual CR Fashion Book, which hits newsstands February 28.

The brunette bombshell tweeted a link to a behind-the-scenes video of the shoot which also featured Russian model Irina Shayk and Mob Wives star Angela 'Big Ang' Raiola.

The mother-of-two also took part in a shoot with her charismatic little girl for London Fog.

Alessandra and Anja wore rainproof outerwear and stylish handbags in a sweet campaign for the brand's spring line.

'Anja had a lot of fun,' said the 5ft 10in beauty. 'She loved all of her outfits. She was really into the polka dot trench coat.'
