i've got a crush on you.

I've decided to compile a list of my highest ranking celebrity girl crushes, which i'm going to start posting in between other posts. some of them i mostly like because of their style, some i tend to "follow" because i have massive respect for their career/lifestyle choices, and some i just genuinely drool over and ponder endlessly over how one person could be so genetically blessed.

and then there's some that, in my mind, fit the bill for all three of those categories, such as my first entry in this list- Victoria's Secret Angel, Miranda Kerr.



I'm sure it seems too easy to name a model as one of my girl crushes, but physical beauty aside I would love her anyway. She seems to be a rare brand of model- less about ego, more about roots and having fun with a career that has a short shelf life and shouldn't be taken so seriously. She also now seems to be a devoted mother/wife, in addition to maintaining her modeling career (did you see how fast she bounced back from the pregnancy? dumbfounding.) and building her organic skincare business, Kora. I can't wait to see her back in the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show this year- it just WASN'T the same without her in it last year :(



Oh, and what can I even begin to say about her fashion style? I guess it's kinda hard to look bad when clothes are basically designed with your body in mind, but I definitely think her personal closet is one that I would raid in a heartbeat given the opportunity.

Days 8 thru 13

Day 8- Most expensive article of clothing.

Love this conductor style trench! It's a little bit big on me, but it was on mega-clearance (so technically not my most expensive article- whatever) so we got it! Definitely looking forward to breaking it in this fall!



Day 9- A cute dress (or skirt).

Something else I haven't gotten to wear yet! My grandma insisted on getting this one for me, said this was how they used to dress everyday when she was my age. It's kind of hard to see all the details in the picture, but I love the flowy but still structured pleats! Hopefully someone will get married soon and I can wear it with a fascinator (really want one of those!)



Day 10- An outfit you wore on a special day.

Special day, yes... special outfit, not so much! Wore this to a show/after party that I'll never forget- got to hang out with people I've crushed on for years and met some people that are now some of my closes friends!





Day 11- A piece of jewelry that a grandparent gave you.

My grandma started gold charm bracelets for all of us granddaughters when we were in elementary school- mine didn't quite buildup like everyone else's did. I think actually destroyed one of these before she got me this one :( The only charms I have are: a dog, a sweet-water basket, a dolphin (not pictured), sand-dollar, and a horseshoe.



Day 12- A piece of jewelry that everyone compliments you on.

A friend that I've had since I was 4 got me this necklace when I was in 2nd or 3rd grade-a LONG time ago- when she was on vacation in the Tennessee mountains! They're little leather moccasins with a beaded flower design chain.



Day 13- Cute socks.

Knee high heart patterned socks from Forever 21. ... not too much to say about these, but I think they fit the bill.
