I actually really love Blake Lively's necklace, as it's a big fancy necklace I could wear. As a short, slightly well endowed women, big fun necklaces don't really work so well. I just wish her hemline was different, it looks weird for some reason.
Also I cannot be the only one who gets vindictive pleasure out of Nina Garcia looking awful at an event like this. #blakelively
The first thing I thought when I saw Blake was that old Edie Falco quote about not being in character as Carmela Soprano until she had her fake nails on. #blakelively
Leigh Lezark is gorgeous and I absolutely love her entire outfit.
I have two pairs of the stocking Helen Lee Shifter is wearing and I promise, they are adorable and very flattering. J. Crew makes them as well as Wolford and some other brands. That's my unsolicited fashion advice for the day! #blakelively
@Tchotchke: I'm always wondering how I can wear patterned tights without looking fussy or overdone. I retain a late-'90s allergy to wearing more than one design, pattern, or even color at a time. #blakelively
@Leucadia: I'm a huge fan of wearing patterned tights. My job requires me to dress fairly conservatively, so tights and jewelry are the best ways to add some character to my outfits. I would recommend sticking to black patterned tights if you're uneasy with them at first because the black (as opposed to say, plum) keeps them a bit more restrained. That said, I actually like the mixed patterns look, but I'm a bit of a magpie anyway. #blakelively
@Tchotchke: You sound very chic! I do have some of those sort of openwork tights (look almost like crochet) in black, worn with a simple black dress, and my fashionable undergrad students loved them. They were itchy, tho! #blakelively
I kind of want to be Blake Lively for a day. Really badly. And I am moved-yes, moved- to voice a complaint: Nina Garcia. Those highlights? Yes, those, in your hair. They are....unfortunate. They are dreadful. They are Played Out. I'm sorry but I expect better from you, dear, and your hair has disappointed me. Natural is always best. I hate to be such a nitpicker but this is such a huge peeve of mine. Especially when it's a woman who has such lovely thick hair-why ruin it with those awful, unflattering stripes? Ok I'm done being petty. #blakelively
@Aesop's Foibles. YES.: I had to look closely at her hair. If it was gray, I'd be all ok with her embracing her natural color. But nope, someone did that to her on purpose. And she probably paid for it. Although maybe they're filming Shear Genius, and the challenge was to do the hair of people who judge on shows that used to be on Bravo. Someone should check on Michael Kors's hair. #blakelively
@Ailatan: For me, there is always something about her hair and makeup that seem a bit off; not terrible, just off the mark. Maybe it's the brassiness and poorly matched foundation? #blakelively
@GiGiBird: I'm in Argentina, and I have seen those highlights, they were very popular in 2002, by 2003 it was the worst thing you could do to your hair. #blakelively
Gordana should have won. Too bad Heidi has it out for her. Milla Jovovich liked the necklace, but thought the rest of the dress should have been simpler, WTF? The curved lines were perfect, not fussy at all. And the necklace was removable! Gordana talked about other ways it could be worn. She wasn't tat self deprecating, she just said something like "Yes, it's another gray dress but..."
I liked Nicholas' design a lot. Sure it didn't particularly evoke Greece(or Grease) but it was cool and novel. If he made the pants out of blue material and made them fuller, I think they would have liked it a lot more.
Logan's was lackluster, but it did look like Lindsay Lohan. At least the jeans fit.
@ElleL: I can't figure out who he slept with/bribed/hypnotized, but he should NOT be on the show. I am offended for Shirin and Nicholas, especially. #projectrunwayseason6
I'm not seeing anything this season that makes me gasp, as 'fashion' should, IMHO. So, tho I hate to admit it, I agree with MK...it's just clothes. #projectrunwayseason6
I think the reason I don't like Irina is because she's just not entertaining. I love a good shit talker - Santino turned it into a hilarious art form. Irina is just dismissive and mean and boring. Same thing for Nicolas; he was never as amusing as he seemed to think he was. That being said, I can't believe they sent him home instead of Christopher.
And as much as I loved Milla Jovovich as a judge, I couldn't help but wish that she'd showed up in full Katinka Ingabogovinana mode. Oh, it would have been glorious. #projectrunwayseason6
Irina, she has the Talent, but lacks the Personality. And I'm STILL dumbstruck by Christopher's vampire dress. Is that bad? I have a hard time understanding his latest looks (Santa Fe and the Lady Marmalade look in particular) because that dress? IT WAS GORGEOUS. #projectrunwayseason6

I dont care that he won a few challenges, he SUCKS. That dress was something you would find in the clearance rack at Wet Seal or DOTS.
Get out of here. #projectrunwayseason6
