Photographer Marcio del Nero shot Edilson Nascimento exclusively for teen magazine Capricho for the second time this year.

I absolutely love Marcio's pictures. More after the jump.

Talking Ice Cream

I am absolutely addicted to ice cream. I have visited every major ice cream shop in Sicily and Italy, but none of them compare to the ice cream at Arlecchino in Punta del Este. This year the traditional heladeria finally opened a second shop, located strategically in Manantiales, on the way to Jose Ignacio.

I highly recommend trying monte bianco, flan de dulce de leche, and tiramisu.

Party Patrol

Since I am not in Rio or Floripa to cover all the new year's parties, I am asking you guys to submit your own pictures or videos of the events to feature on the blog. I am fully aware that the last thing you may want to do is to take a camera to a club at this time of the year, but in case you do and want to share the pictures with other Made In Brazil readers, please email them to the address on the contact button on the top left column. You can also share your pictures by posting them on Made In Brazil's facebook page.

The Brazilian paparazzi managed to get some shirtless pictures of Jude Law diving with his kids in Angra dos Reis over the weekend.

Laguna Escondida

I arrived in Punta del Este on Saturday, so I have not had the time to check out the grounds for the new Laguna Escondida development in Jose Ignacio yet. From what I saw on the Laguna Escondida website though, the project designed by architect Carlos Ott looks pretty amazing. I am loving the infinity edge pool over the lagoon.
