Remember that awkward phase you had when you were 15? Well Kate Upton didn't have one. The supermodel/actress was the kind of girl you admired in the dELiA*s catalogue, styling a corduroy newsboy cap with a multi-color bell-sleeved sweater. The photo was taken by Steven Burton in 2008. Upton admits to having 'boob envy' before she sprouted, "And when finally I went through my growth spurt, and they appeared, and I just... I loved them."
