Survivor: Yeah, James was OTT last night. I felt so bad for Boston Rob after he fainted. The shakiness and the tears and him talking about how much he respects the game.
Why did they vote Stephanie off and not that Blonde Chick Whose Name I Can't Remember Because She Has No Personality?
Because I think Steph is a strategic threat. I like Candice this time around, though. Her admissions of complete powerlessness were refreshing, and I think Cirie and her have a natural chemistry.
I LOVED LOVED LOVED Seth Aaron's jacket on the big model. WANT. I also loved the outfit on the little girl. My niece would have been all over that.
I wasn't surprised at the one who went home. The other bottom two's outfits weren't successful, but they showed some creative design and ambition, even if it didn't work. Those pants were atrocious, but they took a lot of work and were a creative idea. I didn't have an issue with the palette. I didn't like it, but I don't understand why the judges kept harping on it. I've seen that turquoise and orange together often. Clearly the Duchess hasn't been to South Beach in a while.
I agree with all y'all on PR. I think looking at a preliminary sketch of Amy's pants, I would think it was a cool idea, but they really didn't work. And i liked that, uh, what's-his-name who did the Kors impression said "I understood it was a risk", I thought that was a nice way of putting it - so much better than "you don't understand my vision".
Eta: Jonathan. That I'm probably spelling wrong
I'm pretty sure I've seen my niece in outfits put together almost exactly like Amy's girl's outfit. But they don't get marketed that way, I don't think. Which is part of the fun of putting them together, as I recall,
t /still often look as if I got dressed in the dark
Also, while I'm serial posting, I'm looking forward to next week. Hardware store!
Oh, and I loved the little model defending her designer.
PR: I adored!! Seth Aaron`s outfits, both of them. And I loved how he didn`t lose his aesthetic. Also I have suddenly started to find him hot. His tiny model holding out her purse was so cutiepie!
I liked Amy`s look and thought Emilo should have been down there instead. However, I`m so glad the person who went out went out. She was driving me nuts. Also I may have a thing against people who babytalk their spouses.
ABDC: I don`t like the new format. I think people should go out regardless of their region. I`m glad the Hawaii group didn`t go home but I really think they could have. I liked Poreotix (sp?) but agreed about the isolations. I liked Heavy Impact`s intensity. I liked the clock thing in the elimination round. It will be interesting once they get into the challenges.
And Seth Aaron was so right about that purse - the little girl LOVED it.
The minute they showed him saying that I knew he would win. It was just so accurate. Of course, I do think he had a big advantage in this challenge.
I think I pretty much agree with the Top 3/Bottom 3 and the winner/loser. I did think Mila's color blocking worked really well for this challenge, but I suspect, like me, the judges are growing tired of it.
While in general, I don't think blue/orange work, Amy did pick the coolest orange there is and, in that sense, I think the combo could work. In fact, for the little girl, I think it did. For an adult, you'd have to be way more subtle with the colors.
