I just came across these illustrations of Downton Abbey's Michelle Dockery for Vanity Fair by (the aptly-named) David Downton and had to post. For one, they are beautiful modern portraits, the  type of which we don't often see as magazine editorials. (Here, Michelle is sporting the likes of Balenciaga and Oscar de la Renta.) Secondly, the show's third season returns to American televisions tomorrow night. Do any of you watch? Aren't we all excited for (spoiler alert!) Lady Mary and Matthew to tie the knot?

A match made in heaven? I would have stashed these away, too.

Any artist who paints a J.Crew catalog is an instant favorite.

Love her painterly style and simple, sweet vignettes. Beautiful.
