No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Yeah, the judge's discussion was fascinating, and I rarely think that on PR. I like Mila's stuff, but when her voiceover was saying the three looks were clearly her but with surprises, I really wanted someone to point out what was surprising. But I just didn't like Jay's looks - I don't know if it was because they were over-designed or because his taste just doesn't line up with mine at all, but even the things the judges were singling out as being great were meh-to-ick for me.

The most fun moments were Tim saying "Fallopian tubes" and Nina throwing up her hands and saying she didn't know who she wanted to go forward.

Is it a true sign of geekiness that I looked at it and thought Brainiac?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

true, but I'd rather see overdesigned than boring. And while I like Mila's clothes, they are very conservative. I would definitely wear a lot of her stuff, but when I watch PR, I want to see new designs, and ideas that will add some pizzaz to my boring :)

What Vortex said.

Except that you don't dress boring like I do. All of my clothes (especially work clothes) are black, grey, or navy. blouses/tops are black, grey, cream, or pale blue. I have the occasional splash of color in a crimson or turquoise :)

Well, I probably do have more color in general, although today I'm wearing black and cream. I do dress pretty boring at work most of the time.

Speaking of color, and I'm someone who LOVES color, was it me or was Emilio's palette the FUGLIEST thing evah? Too bright for fall, not complementary (or complimentary) and that green was... something. And the initial camo print? I just did not like any of it.

That lime green was NOT cute. Did you read Tim's blog?

Today I am wearing a black skirt, black jacket and pale blue sleeveless top with black hose and black flats. I will, however, go home and change into a shiny olive green strappy top and cute green BCBG slides.

The collection I'm looking forward to next week is Seth Aaron's. I want to see exactly how he managed to rework it in a month after Tim's visit.

I'm reserving judgment on Emilio's palette until I see his final collection. What we saw was not very appealing.

Vortex, 100 Geek Points. Or 6.02x10^23. Whichever's more appropriate.

Eta: I am also eager to see what Seth Aaron has up his sleeve. Actual surprises, I hope!

Art Crawl!!!

I tried to read Tim's blog and I couldn't get it to load.

I thought that Emilio's clothing just looked ugly - the color palette and the shapes.

I am also eager to see Seth Aaron's collection. Tim's visit with Seth Aaron's family is my favorite Tim's Visit EVER.

Better than turtle poop at Laura's loft, sumi? That was classic.
