Hey, Sparkles & Secrets! Emily Crocker here, First World Thoughts blogger and your newest guest writer!
While this season of The Bachelor has introduced the most boring man in the world (sorry, Chris), it hasn’t been all bad. From the crazies to the fame hungry, the girls have been exceptionally entertaining. One in particular caught my eye from the very beginning …I present to you my girl crush of the week – Miss Kaitlyn Bristowe.
Kaitlyn hails from Vancouver, which is apparently where all of the best clothes and hair products are. Immediately upon exiting the limo, Kaitlyn was weird. If you ask me, there is nothing more lethal than a well-dressed, gorgeous weirdo who knows how to do makeup. One Bachelor season after the next, we see girls trying WAY too hard. We watch as they tip-toe over to the Bachelor in their heels that they can’t possibly walk in and tell him “I wouldn’t have come if it weren’t you” in their most convincingly seductive voice. Kaitlyn was a breath of fresh air when she marched up to Farmer Chris (in her ASOS dress, I have it in black) and said, “you can plow the **** out of my field any day”. Commence girl crush.
Kaitlyn has it goin’ on, from her perfect ombre (does she air dry it?) to her wardrobe (that I will raid when we are best friends someday). Beyond this, she has the number one trait that I envy: the ability to take literally nothing seriously. I mean, Chris took her on a date to Costco for God’s sake and she reacted by climbing into a giant inflatable ball and rolling around the store. In essence, she took the actual worst date in the world and turned it into a hilariously good time. When it comes to situations like these, I think we should all be a little more like Kaitlyn. Granted, not every bad date will have an inflatable ball, but you get the point.
I knew it was only a matter of time until some celebs picked up on the gem that is KB. Just this week, my girl crush was officially validated when Anna Kendrick expressed her love via twitter:
As if it couldn’t get any better, it turns out this chick loves to rap and breakdance. She was even in a music video which has been removed from YouTube much to my dismay. Despite her tears upon being eliminated, Kaitlyn couldn’t possibly have had feelings for Farmer Chris after she asked him to rap with her and it sounded something like a tractor repeatedly backing over a small animal. While I’m the first to admit that I have little to no musical talent, I’m pretty positive that if Kaitlyn and I hit the studio together we would be the next t.A.T.u.
Can’t wait to see more from Kaitlyn. Chris, you messed up, dude.
