speeches to make them more appealing to the masses, but not only
did he deliver rousing,...

What are you wearing today? (and an embarrassing confession)
I'm just going to tell you all right now: I have no fashion game today. I know, I should. It's What Are You Wearing Today day and I should step it up. But, alas, a hangover and the fact that it's going to be a lazy weekend have stolen my will and brought me to the dreaded of dreads style-wise: A gray hoodie. Over a dress. With yellow flip flops and messy hair and mascara a little smudged from last night. I know you guys can do better than me.
Your turn.

Style Compass
I love nothing more than when one of my friends asks me to find them something on eBay, and I come through, and then they're pleased. This happened just last week with my friend Valerie, who was looking for something I would never think to buy--a compass necklace. Valerie has an offbeat, pretty, urban-earthy style, and this was exactly the kind of... Read More »- Let’s talk: Comment (1) | Blog

On last night's Project Runway: Where the heck was Nina?
Something happened last night on Project Runway that, as far as I know, has never happened before: Nina Garcia was absent. And in her place was mother of many children, designer of OK clothes, Laura Bennett from season three. Which is weird, right? Was Nina sick? Otherwise engaged? Or--and I have absolutely nothing to substantiate this but I'm speculating anyway--is there beef between Nina and very tan stylist Rachel Zoe (who was last night's guest judge)? Did Nina boycott the show? Mmmmm.

Moving on, this week's episode had a cool challenge: The contestants were asked to create an outfit using only car parts found in a car. Almost everyone chose to work with seat belts, which seemed like a little bit of a cop-out, but the ones who didn't (and Korto, who did) came up with some really rad, completely innovative designs. I was especially in love with... Read More »- Let’s talk: Comment (8) | Blog
