Anybody watch last night? The return of Nina Garcia, perhaps the most sour faced person in the world. I really thought Christopher was going to be aufed given the hate Nina had for his garment. I did not think any of them were awful...or wonderful. I did however hate the jacket Elena (or is it Irena, can never get the names straight) put her very petite girl in. It looked like it was eating her.

I thought Christopher's comment was stupid. Exactly what was he saying anyway? Thanks for the insult? Nina was annoying. I don't mind her in the regular seasons, but she came on like the anti-Christ and ... it wasn't good.

I liked the jacket Elena made, but it had too much of the pattern. Had it been that striped variegated look on just the main portion, with "radiant orchid" arms, I would have liked it better. It was too much business for the girl's size. A taller girl might have carried it off, though and it was the best made item on the runway, I thought. Victor was a wannabe every single time he came out, I thought. Yes, he made a mean leather jacket, but it didn't seem to fit -- like she was wearing her boyfriend's jacket in HS or something.

Here's what I think of the winning look. Which one was it now? A day later I forget.

It was korto. Based on the tailoring of the pants (the models ass looked fab) and that vest. I agreed with it. Sad sack cliche Christopher needs to get off my screen asap. Not sure who was more of a caricature.....him or Viktor

I haven't watched for several weeks and just caught the end this week. I was glad to see Korto still in there and winning, never liked Jeffery, so glad he was off, same with Irina.
Viktor deserved to go. What does that say that you can miss it for weeks and not really "miss" it? I hope they step up future seasons. It really has never been the same since it moved to Lifetime (IMHO)

It has been really bad, so low budget on Lifetime. I thought the concept of the bloggers was a great idea, but none of these bloggers seemed particularly fashionable. These are not the high end fashion bloggers who get invited to the shows.

I lost track of who was doing what while I was gasping in horror at Alyssa's outfit.

Korto's was the best, I think, so it was a deserving win. I think Christopher should have gone, that trench coat dress was very unflattering.

Ugh weaver....you have no idea.

Youtube videos are my guilty pleasures - and I was familiar w/ all of those bloggers. They are 'popular' aka tweens/teens like them. They don't 'set' trends and I had to snort when Nina trotted out that horseshit. Well lemme backtrack, they set the trends for the biggest buyer/ mass media. It was a total nod to how passe PR has become. They are into the designer who sends them the most free shit or the biggest price tag. /end rant

Ohhhh, I wonder where they got them.

I get sucked into watching makeup YouTubes. They are hypnotic. And I hardly wear any makeup!

Weaver it's a slippery slope. Did I get into makeup b/c of youtube or did I discover youtube videos b/c of my love of makeup? Chicken and egg. The best/worst is when this 'guru's 1/2 my age are hauling Dior and Chanel. Yuck.

Me too. I watch one video, then I say "one more, one more." And next thing you know, some time has passed. Its amazing to see these young kids with their "hauls."

Same with handbags, they do reveals, these 20 somethings revealing Louis Vuitton, Chanel, and even Hermes. Where did I go wrong?

I must say these reveals can be handy for things. When I sold my old iPad, I couldn't get the stuff back in the box, being a klutz. I looked on YouTube for a reveal of someone opening the box and figured it out. There is an example of EVERYTHING on Youtube.

Wow, I missed the episode from January 2nd when Christopher got booted! So glad that the three final are Seth, Korto, and Elena. I'm not wild for Korto, but I would be fine with either Seth or Elena -- especially Elena. But whoa! Too many guest judges!

I haven't seen tonight's episode -- started watching and stopped when I realized I'd missed one ... which was on ON DEMAND. Now I have the new one set to tape later. I guess it's the last one?

I'm only half way through last week's show where Christopher got booted, which shows my lack of interest. I liked the challenge though. They showed a real designer and her real fabrics, and they had to pick her fabrics and get the design approved by her staff, so I thought it was a good test of talent.

I doubt Seth Aaron has a chance, I figure its Korto or Elena.

Edited to say I finished the show with Christopher's booting, and watched some of the finale last night. I FF'd to the end to see who won. I really had no interest in any of them, or in the show anymore. As far as the winner goes, I didn't much care or even pick a fave as I FF'd through their runway.

The final was last night?
I've given up even watching the last 5 minutes. So sad.... it used to be "must see tv" for me when it was on Bravo. Now, meh...
Who won, BTW?
