meet Catherine (pictured with her Daniel) of
there are so many reasons i keep going back to her little corner of the internet for more... besides that we both see art in book covers (this one below, a Wilde book she purchased and wanted the print to hang up on her walls-- i purchased a mystery paperback last weekend that i wasn't interested at all in reading just for a silhouette of a woman's back on the cover i wanted to frame as art), i love how brave she is.
In her 2009 round-up, she included these photographs of herself: beautiful long red hair to very beautiful pixie short.
on her blog she wrote :
"I always wanted to, and finally I had the courage to go for it. To anyone else thinking of doing something outrageous with a view to feeling new, liberated, whatever; I say go for it! I loved my hair long, but it will grow back, and I currently love it short. I can't loose :-)"
i love that she went for it.
Catherine loves tea & flowers, lives in York, is a linguistics student and if there's anything that made me adore her more... it was for this post of hers titled Honest.

This blog is great, i love her writing style.
thanks for introducing her!
i loved that honest post as well...
and also love that she chopped all of her hair off...
if i could, i'd do this right now!
{... one of these days i will have a fauxhawk!}
:)
I will have to check out her blog. I think she is so brave and I like that she went out and cut her hair. If only I had the guts to do the things I want to do.

she sounds awesome, what a great outlook!
i totally agree with her on the hair comment. it truly is liberating.
Well, I went over to take a look and I have to say... I love her little corner of the internet! What about her reminds you of me? I'm so curious! (I would never have the guts to chop off all my hair! I do try to be honest though, and not to paint a picture of life being all sunshine and roses all the time...)
I love your Sharing Sundays. I was so excited when it was me you featured...
Hope you're feeling better soon, my sweet. xoxo
Thank you for introducing Jumbleberry Orchard! Her post was so true. Blogging can heal. It got me through the worst year of my life and a terrible depression. It allowed me to find myself again. Yes, I usually blog about silly stuff and TOTALLY edit the pictures I post on there, but sometimes I speak directly from the heart. Check out this post http://punkinandbean.blogspot.com/2010/02/what-i-know-for-sure.html
It describes my year of re-discovering myself. The girl over at Jumbleberry Orchard hit the nail on the head about the importance of blogging about the ugly things in our lives too.
Wow! Cutting her hair short like that takes guts! my hairs at my shoulders and I'm planning on cutting it a bit shorter (like an in or so) tomorrow an that alone scares me!
what a brave girl ... i could NEVER. haha
going to check her blog out now ..........
Wow, Micaela, I'm so touched that you featured me - it really made my day! And thanks everyone for all the lovely comments!
I've been following Dolca Vita since I started blogging regularly, and I've loved getting to know you Micaela: here's to many more sweet, honest and exciting posts and to connecting with lovely people all over the world! :-)
love her blog... and that post of hers is amazing.xx
I love her hair! I wish I had the courage to do the same... I seriously think my hair is like my security blanket.
I'm sorry I'm just now responding to your comment. I would love to do a swap with you m'dear! I adore snail mail and always happy to have someone to do exchange with!
she's so sweet isn't she? i met her through the "good karma swap"
How brave she is. I used to have my hair like that when I was young and it was so easy and fun. I am tempted many times to cut my hair off like that again. Maybe after I lose my weight.
