so this is nebraska

No, Nebraska poet laureate Ted Kooser probably didn't have Samantha Gradoville specifically in mind when he wrote about gravel roads and tractors in the aforementioned poem. But like Kooser, I'm extremely proud to say that the new, up-and-coming model is from my hometown of Omaha, Nebraska. She's been in countless spring 2011 shows such as Louis Vuitton, Prada, Dolce and Gabbana, Marc by Marc Jacobs, Chanel, Miu Miu just to name a few. Oh, and her dad is my dentist. Life is weird, isn't it?

I was absolutely tickled to see Sam in an editorial spread in the October issue of Harper's Bazaar a few weeks ago. Wearing Dior, Gucci, Christian Louboutin, Dolce and Gabbana, Burberry Prorsum, and ChloƩ, she is single-handedly fulfilling my sartorial dream. And how about those eyebrows? She reminds me of an old movie star or Camilla Belle. Yes, indeedy, she's going to be a big star. Who says Nebraska is just cornfields and farms? Well, besides Ted Kooser.
