Vanessa Grimaldi - Bachelor 21 - *Sleuthing Spoilers* #2

I remember during pre-season sleuthing, a few comments on her Twitter from people wishing her happy bday from back in the day. I think her birthday is on 30th September, 2 days after Nick's.

There are couple of posts in past years on her IG that friends comment Happy Birthday on Sept 30th. She also puts a "30" at the end of her IG name. Funny because Nick did the same thing for his Twitter name with "28" (his birthday),

Ooh - two Librans wow!! That would be2 an even better match actually. They would have a perfect understanding of each others motivations and would also be able to achieve balance between them. Two halves of the same scales.

So adorable! I love this photo and moment shared between them. They already look like a couple

I don't have a copy in my photo library. She is wearing the off shoulder print dress. I may have just glimpsed the interaction in a preview.
Or, I'm seeing things

Drumroll, please... Best Dressed this week is Vanessa in her unique sweater dress...

This dress combines a few dichotomies I love: Covered-up yet skin baring, dressy yet effortless, and knit yet in an unexpected color. The color is fantastic on her and she looks just cool in it. Also, I have never seen anything like this piece EVER. Vanessa bought her exact dress around 7 years from a boutique in Montreal and it no longer has its tags (she was sweet enough to send me photos so I included the shot of the hemline since we never got a good look on TV), so suffice to say this proved impossible to find. I couldn't find anything on the interwebs that had that exact unraveled detail along the front neckline.

I just read Nick's interview with Entertainment Tonight previewing his date with Rachel in New Orleans and I have to say that I really appreciate the fact that Nick said he only wants to say "I love you" to one woman, one more time - that's it for him. I really hope he stands by that statement through his entire journey as The Bachelor. Truthfully, I will have more respect for him if at the end it's not another finale like last season where the L word was dropped constantly.

IMO Nick means "one more time" in reality not just on tv.

Completely agree with both of you.

Love that dress and the fact that no one has one like that. She wears her own style and its not necessarily a designer look but always looks fantastic as she obviously has taste and can look edgy as well as glamorous. Loved her in her leather jacket- the two of them in leather jackets - now THAT would be one gorgeous couple.

They both have been awfully quiet on social media since Nick was spotted at the airport on Thursday, definitely a good sign for a safe house visit.

I can't wait to watch their love story play out. I rewatched the season preview again last night, and at the end when he's in his final suit in Finland in an ITM, he's so emotional, tears down his face, saying he hopes she says yes. That's a man in love. Not bubble love either imo, but the real deal. Looking forward to what they say to each other, two well spoken mature adults, who are in love and finally get to enjoy it because this crazy journey is over. No more Corrine's, no more faking it, just raw honesty and emotion which we've always gotten from nick and it seems Vanessa too. Mostly, I look forward to their individual happiness, I have a feeling it's going to be written all over their faces. I'm excited!
