grace + cats= otp.

I don't have time to do a picspam over the entire September Issue film, so here, enjoy a mini-spam of Grace Coddington's foray into the country, from the Bonus Features disc.


The outside of her house.


Her cat, Bart. He freaking WINKS or something, and it scares the hell out of me.


The art..... of cats. All of it, CATS CATS CATS.


I just... have no words for this. None. I'm so dead.


A wall of photos OF HER CATS. THE MADNESS NEVER ENDS.


And DRAWINGS of her cats. So basically the Catwalk Cats book ON HER WALL.


Then she goes out to her garden to get her other cat, Pumpkin. He tries to run, but he doesn't stand a chance.


She scoops him up and looks adorable, basically. GEEZ GRACE STOP BEING SO CUTE.


Ta-dahhhh!!!

Bonus, from PAPER magazine.


And then a picture of what I'm wearing today, because it's SPRING and WARM.


Jumper, Target. Cardigan, Target. Flats, Payless. Yeah, I'm cheap.

a conglomeration of things that happened recently.

Yesterday I went to an art exhibition for young artists via our school art program. Students in their final year of high school submit a portfolio of six works of art from their high school careers for judging and a scholarship to Kilgore College (which isn't a very nice school, but winning the contest looks good on a resumé). The day overall was rather drab, but I met a brilliant young photographer, Nicholas Hébert (pronounced a-bear). When we were released for lunch, the two of us wandered over to a local Presbyterian church where he snapped a few photos of me that I would like to share with you now.

I love the view in my glasses. Have a close-up.

It was cold, so my face is especially red.

Also, I had a bit of a style crisis yesterday. Because everyone at my school dresses so generically, I feel like my style is quite progressive, at least for my surroundings. But then at the art contest, there were several people dressed in clothes I would probably wear. It made me realize that if I really want to stand out later on, I need to step it up in the clothes department and stop caring so much what people at my school might think. Either way, here are some shots of what I wore yesterday under my coat. First, a photo Nicholas edited that my friend Tori took.

I wish I had this photo in color so you could see his outfit. Fabulous!

I'm refusing to show this as a straight forward shot because I look fat.

Shot from the back.

I recieved Grace Coddington's Catwalk Cats book in the mail two days ago, and I'm obsessed. Have a few scans.

This is amazing for so many reasons that many of you will never understand. But I kind of died.

I... just have a thing about Grace's hair, and Grace + Cats.

THIS THIS THIS THIS THIS. I can't even deal with this. Like. REALLY.

I took more, but I really have to go take care of some things. Like.. not eating an entire pizza no matter how much I want to. xx
