An Open Post to Amy
Holy crap this was amazing!
Merci,
Shan
Shan,
SHUT UP IN YOUR FACE! I was going to discuss this with you once you watched SYTYCD this week. That's why I asked yesterday if you'd watched yet. Freaky.
I loved this. Not quiiiiiiite as much as Mia's Addiction piece last season but almost. Dealing with an anxiety disorder means I have a lot of experience with fears, so this really hit home. The end...where she pushes him down...guh...love it.
And, Legacy...yum. He did a great job. Hot AND sensitive. Like looking in a mirror almost. Oh, what?
- Ames

Now You're Just Pissing Me Off.
Ames: Word. I believe my reply to your, "Durrr, I forgot to post the PR recap" was, "Because the show sucks." I may be paraphrasing. And by "paraphrasing" I mean "that is exactly what I said and meant."


Shan: Yaaaaawnnnn....you stole my zipper collar idea, Irina is a bitch, yada yada yada, Logan, GO HOME! I AM sad, however, that Koji was also sent packing. She has grown to be one of my favorites.
Shan: Yeah, yeah, yeah - another outfit that Heidi loves. Big surprise there. I actually liked it until I saw it close up on TLo's Project Rungay blog.
That back is craptacular - like my grandma's sofa threw up on her. Yes, the sweater was cool, but for the love of Doug Henning, CAN WE GET A LITTLE FRIGGING COLOR IN DA HOUSE, DESIGNERS??????
Thank you, Mr. Henning. I feel better now, even if it IS all just an ILLLLUUUUUUUSION.Ames: Thank you, Ms. Shannan for the Henning. You know Pablo and I do that voice all the time here at the CASA DE VOICES. Maybe WE need our own reality show!
Now, Irina. Honey. Get over yourself. What I like about some of the clothes you make is overshadowed by what I don't like about how much you like all of the clothes you make.
Gordana
Shan: Grey, blah blah blah, boring, blabbity blah, nothing like the original fierce dress which I actually didn't mind in that color, her hair is turrible, yada yada, old maid, annnnnd SCENE.Amy: Uh uh. No. No. No. Pass me the eye bleach.
Christopher:
Amy Amy Bo Bamy: He's still here because she reallllllly wants to go to Bryant Park and he's her designer and oh no, I just admitted I watch the after show, Models of the Runway.
Daryl Carol Hannah:
Shan: Once again, my Favey Crockett of the night. Cute? Check. Wearable? Check check. Inspired by the original piece? Meh - maybe half a check. And finally, you had me at POCKETS.Ames: Please win this season, Carol Darryl Hannah Montana. It's a well-documented fact (somewhere back in this blog that I'm too lazy to look up) that we loves us some pockets in dresses. So much easier to carry your flask. Am I right, ladieth?

Stuff We Would Kiss On THe Mouf: The Brothers Swoon

Oh, I mean The Brothers Bloom.
Shan, I'm gonna need to add Mark Ruffalo to my Top Five. He was always kinda teetering on the edge but after watching The Brothers Bloom this weekend I'm gonna have to give him the bump up.
Have you all seen this movie? It's sublime. I don't want to overhype, but I thought it was incredibly clever and funny and beautifully costumed and shot. Rachel Weisz is a doll and Adrien Brody was even kind of a sexy piece in this. Loved the costuming. Did I mention that?
Merci,
Ames
.
Ames,
Just watched the trailer - I hadn't even heard of the movie. Durrrrr. The first thing I thought was - WHERE did Rachel Weisz shop for her costumery? Fabulous Costumes R Us? Guh. Second thing? I always thought Adrian Brody was kind of cute in a weird way, especially after I saw him lay one on Halle Berry at the Oscar's. Thirdly - Robbie Coltrane? Have LOVED him ever since his ground-breaking role as "Man In the Bathroom" in European Vacation. And Mark Ruffalo? Well, well, well, Mr. Scruffy McFiveO'ClockShadow, you had me at Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Which I have only seen once and have always wanted to see again, so there's that. Not to mention Jim Carrey (who is no where near The Brothers Bloom) was so adorable and sensitive and so completely the antithesis of Ace Ventura (which I also loved but now I'm COMPLETELY off-track) that Eternal Sunshine just pushed my love of Mr. Carrey into a whole new arena.
And finally - I am glad you posted this, because I am TOTALLY counting it as my Monday post, since I had nothing else in my brain region for today.
So to recap: The Brothers Bloom - top of my list. Mark Ruffalo? Delicious. Rachel Weisz - calling her for shopping tips. Jim Carrey? Call me...
Shan
