Relationship History
Katherine has hooked up with guys... but in her world, that term extends no farther than making out with them. She has never been in a real relationship either, and it's not because no one has ever expressed interest in her. No, she's had suitors before... it's just that she has always been very insecure of herself, and never pursued anyone who happened to be interested in her.

Weight

Katherine is medically considered to be underweight for her height. She is very thin, although she doesn't see herself that way, and has a body weight that most girls envy. She is, however, self-conscious over the fact that she doesn't feel curvy enough in certain areas, specifically her chest.
Hair
She has naturally brown hair that falls somewhere near her chest.
Eyes
She has brown eyes and does need glasses, but usually wears contacts when she isn't at home.

Fashion Sense
Her fashion sense is pretty diverse, especially when counting photo shoots that she's done. She's walked down the runway in sheer tops where her breasts are completely visible, she's had her hair temporarily dyed pink, she's worn the most elegant of gowns, down to the sexiest of lingerie. It all depends where she's going, and who she wants to impress.

Personality
Katherine's most positive characteristic is probably her exuberance. She is bubbly, fun and lively and always seems to be bursting with energy. It allows her to be a fun person to be around at parties, or simply just hanging out and watching a movie. She's talkative, passionate and emotional. Katherine has never had to prioritize hard work - either employment-wise or in school - since she has always had her money and family name to fall back on, so she tends to focus that energy on her social life. Although she does well to maintain an image of being a cheerful party girl, she really doesn't enjoy going to many of the events that she frequents. Nights out with her girlfriends are always fun and she does like dressing up (or at least shopping for clothes to wear to the events), but being surrounded by a bunch of people that she doesn't care to know isn't enticing to her. She really has no desire to meet new people or make new friends since she's content with her social standing as it is. Like most girls at Crossroads, Katherine belongs to a clique and very rarely strays away from it. She isn't naturally mean-spirited or malicious, but she isn't innocent of judging people and participating in nasty gossip either. In some respects, she may be viewed as a follower but in reality, it's more of naivete. She's very trusting when it comes to things that her close friends say, so if she's told that a classmate is a bitch, she'll outcast that person without considering that the information may be false. A lot of the time, things just don't "click" for her. She lacks a filter and will often say things that are offensive without realizing that they actually are.
Drama and gossip are fun when she's not the target of it, but when it comes back to bite her, Katherine proves to be much more self-conscious and sensitive than she acts. She over thinks most things and is the type of person who will lay in bed for hours thinking about things or call her friends at three in the morning sobbing. She's not only emotionally needy, but materialistically as well. She tends to be very shallow when it comes to judging people and determining their worth and the first standard would be money. It's a narrow-minded and arrogant way of thinking, but she would never even consider dating a guy who wasn't of equal status of her. Katherine can be careless and selfish, high maintenance and dramatic, but most teenage girls are, right?
Nevertheless, she is unfortunately unique from most people in terms of having an eating disorder. It's something that she has struggled with for years and luckily, during the summer before her junior year, she was forced into treatment and really got a grasp on it. Since then, she's grown to maintain a healthy lifestyle. It's something that she thinks that she'll always have to live with, and there are definitely days where she falls back into those urges, but for the most part, she thinks that she's got a grasp on the illness. It's not something that affects her daily life at the moment, so her doctors consider her to be in "remission".
Mental or Behavioral Disabilities
She is in remission from an eating disorder, and was diagnosed with ADHD at a young age. She's not being treated for either at the moment, as neither of them are as bad as they were in the past, but it's apparent that she struggles to focus during school. It's just something she's used to at this point.

Upbringing
Katherine is the only child of Bernard Arnault and Adeline Leonard. Her parents were married for twelve years, and faithful to each other for only one of them. Well, at least that applies to her mother, though as time passed, her father became no better. The two of them really did love each other when they were dating, but they moved too fast, and after getting married, Adeline began to realize that Bernard could not be the doting husband that she wanted him to be. He was the CEO of LMVH, a French multinational luxury goods conglomerate which owns many major labels in areas such as wines and spirits, watches and jewelry, perfumes and cosmetics, fashion and leather goods and specialist retailing. Céline, Dior, Fendi, Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs, Bulgari, Sephora, Belvedere and Hennessy are just a few of the many brands that his company owns. To put it simply, Bernard is an extremely successful businessman who has created a vast fortune for his family, but it came at a price, and that price was that he was often overwhelming busy for work. He would be in France for sometimes a month at a time, and Adeline just wasn't prepared to settle down with being a housewife to a nearly non-existent lover. It wasn't like she was an actual housewife, in terms of the stereotypical "taking care of the family at home" thing. She had a full-time nanny on hand to raise Juliet, and a slew of housekeepers and chefs to keep their household functioning. She was really just an all-grown-up heiress who spent her days throwing charity events and cocktail parties, and secretly seeking new potential husbands, while her actual one was away.
The turmoil in her parents' relationship should have been obvious, even for a girl who was, and still, fits the label of "oblivious" most of the time, but Katherine still vows that she never saw the divorce coming. She was only ten years old at the time, and finding out that her father had an affair was absolutely shocking to her, especially since she was in the dark about her mother's various affairs over the years. What didn't help was her mother being in her ear, spinning the situation to seem as if Bernard had been the only unfaithful parent, and that he ruined a perfect family. Sadly, Katherine's mother wasn't above that level, and for the next few years, she drilled it into Katherine's head that her father wasn't a true father or husband, and that he had taken some home wrecking-whore and her child as family, while kicking Adeline and her to the curb. This, of course, was not the case, and you'd know it if you looked at the incredible check that Bernard wrote to keep Adeline from spreading news of the affair to anyone other than their daughter. What also wasn't true, was Adeline's insistence that Bernard didn't want anything to do with her. He had tried to get at least partial custody, but Adeline refused, seeing her daughter as the last piece of leverage over the man who had the audacity to cheat on her (regardless of her doing the same for years).
Katherine spent after four years with little contact with her father, and then, in an unsurprising twist, her mother moved on. Not only from Bernard, since it was clear to a lot of people that she moved on while they were still married, but from Katherine too. She didn't ditch her daughter on the side of the road or anything, but in an emotional sense, she kind of did. She began dating a man who was nearly half her age, and she didn't want a bratty teenager, especially one facing mental health issues, dragging her down. Now that Katherine was no longer a pawn she could use against Bernard, she wanted to get rid of her. Make her Bernard's problem, in a sense, and so she insisted that Katherine move to California with her father. Kat didn't want to go, because for one, she loved Manhattan, and two, she despised her step-family despite barely knowing them, but her mother insisted, and off she went. Four years in, and the only good thing she thinks that truly came out of her moving to California was her modelling career taking off, which is something she knows she owes credit to her father for.

Hobbies
Shopping: As cliché as it is for a rich teenage girl to list shopping as a hobby, Katherine really lives up to this. She's the type of girl who can easily spend hours in a single department of a store, or spend ten minutes in one but leave with thousands of dollars worth of items. Although her family can afford her crazy spending habits, it is definitely getting a bit out of control.
Yoga: Unlike her exercise with the sole purpose of losing weight, Katherine uses yoga to help clear her mind. It's a fairly new hobby but one that she is really beginning to enjoy and benefit from.

She took piano lessons at a kid but can only play it at a beginner's level.
