Project Runway: Episode 12 - The Reunion Show and Christian Wins Fan Fave
(Click to Enlarge)
Oh boy...oh boy! The last episode of Project Runway aired last night...and you know what that means? The finale is THAT MUCH CLOSER! It was the "Reunion Episode" with the entire cast of designers, judges and THE host chatting about fave memories, good laughs, extreme moments and this season's killer designs!
Please check out the still clips, from the episode, above. Love the group shot...with crazy but sweet, Elisa all chatting about her serious WEIRD-ness factor (top pic). Then the four amazingness's (yep, just made that one up)...Nina Garcia, Michael Kors, Tim Gunn and Heidi Klum, love these four oh so much! Seriously, this show ROCKS because they all add such extra spice and appeal! But I have to say, the bottom clip actually makes me crack up! If Chris and Rami didn't switch common facial expressions for this, then I have no idea what is going on! Mr. Expressive himself, Chris March (he's from San Francisco) is all stoic and reserved...while Rami, who's expressions usually resound under the former description, is making ONE HILARIOUS face! Love it! Love them! Can't wait to see WHICH ONE shows at Fashion Week for the finale!

And if you were even pondering who MIGHT be this year's fan-fave...ummm, none other than MY FAVE took the cake...and moolah, home with him! Golf claps to you, Christian!

Project Runway: Episode 11 - Looks by Rami, Chris and Jillian are Inspired by Art
Love me some Project Runway and Episode 11 was thrilling. In all the excitement of a busy Valentine's Day I actually forgot to post about the show. Naughty me, I know! Only 5 designers remained at the start of the show...and naturally it was time for the camera field-trip episode. Their muse was actually the pieces found at The Metropolitan Museum of Art where they had to choose an inspirational piece from one of three museum wings.
So here are the look...in all their glory! This post is actually BETTER than ever because I've included an unusual version of some speedy-savvy-stylin'. I've also been 'inspired' as well, but by Rami, Jillian and Chris' looks and have created my own wearable ensembles based upon their color palettes. Enjoy!
Oh, one more Friday request for you. Can someone please deliver this to Christian...I think I seriously have an itty bitty crush! He's just soooo unbelievably cute!

Project Runway: Episode 10 - Designers and WWE Ladies Get Their Wrestle On!
(Click to Enlarge)
Project Runway is being whittled down, week by week...we're now down to a wee FIVE designers! This week, six designers were given a downright hilarious challenge...can you even fathom a guess just by checking out the above garb? WWE, baby! Yes, the "ladies" of WWE...as in wrestling! The Designers needed to create an outfit for the WWE Divas to wear in the ring. I would be awe-struck by the mere size of some of these women's biceps and "other" parts (um humm...pictures below, the two bottom left...HUGE!)
So without further ado, I'm just merely posting pics of the looks this week...no need to 'style' or emulate any of these looks...unless, of course, you have a wrestling match coming up. Wresting ensembles are NOT my forte so I'll just leave you with some hilarious clips from the show, below! Enjoy!

Project Runway: RD Gold Medal Awards for Episode 9 - Chris, Sweet P and Rami - Make the Look Your Own
I'm honestly OBSESSED with Project Runway. I love it, try not to miss it every Wednesday and I'm also not afraid to spend an ENTIRE weekend watching the marathons...pathetic, I know.
Episode 9 aired last night and BravoTV.com has entitled it, "Even Designers Get the Blues!" Designers were taken on one of Tim Gunn's infamous field-trips this week. What was the Challenge? A Massive warehouse with clotheslines of denim were strewn in front of them. Each designer raced to grab the pieces they needed to create "an iconic denim look that captures the spirit of the 501 legacy!"
RunwayDaily Gold Medal Awards have been handed out to this week's designers and leading the pack are Chris, Sweet P and Rami. Senior Vice President of Levi's Design, Caroline Calvin, stood in as a judge this week and was REALLY impressed with Rami and Sweet P's looks. I love Chris' look because I find it VERY wearable and the SWEETHEART neckline is one of my faves.
I've included some speedy-savvy-stylin' below for you to make each Project Runway look your OWN! As usual, I've incorporated some really stellar accessories, so be sure to glance through all the thumbnails. My fave additions to each look? For Chris' look I added some POP of color in the form of an oversized RED clutch, the corset CUFF reminds me of the Dolce & Gabbana Padlock belt featured HERE, the sandals I've added give more of a retro/structured/GLADIATOR feel than those on last night's show....and how about those sex-ayyy tights? Red stripe up the back just screams, "Ohhh Lah Lahhhh!"
Sweet P's light denim look was capped off with a killer anchor STATEMENT NECKLACE, a long white VEST, a SKINNY metallic BELT to go over the vest/dress, a STAR charm watch bracelet and a Rebecca Minkoff Morning After bag, who is DEF a designer you need to covet/watch/follow, pronto! (Love letter R.M. Morning After bag - "Oh how I want thee! You would match everything!")
And last but not least, Rami's tailoring and craftsmanship stole the show...he's AMAZING to say the least. Some fun additions to his already stellar look were some more GLADIATOR style sandals as well, a massive gold CUFF and some yellow POP of color via Nuovedive Ruched Leather Bag! Love this look! So wearable and perfect for a day shopping in STYLE!
Golf claps for all three designers! Chris, Sweet P and Rami you've proven to RunwayDaily once again that you deserve to be ON Project Runway, indeed!

Project Runway: RD Gold Medal Awards for Episode 8 - Christian and Chris, Jillian and Victorya and Sweet P and Rami
I'm honestly OBSESSED with Project Runway. I love it, try not to miss it every Wednesday and I'm also not afraid to spend an ENTIRE weekend watching the marathons...pathetic, I know.
Episode 8 aired last night and was chock-full of some amazing creations! Designers were separated into teams of TWO and asked to create avant garde creations based on their models HAIRSTYLE! Getting right to work, Tim Gunn arrived with a curve-ball and asked the designers to create a SECOND look, ready-to-wear, based on their avant-garde theme! Ahhh...it was chaotic!
RunwayDaily Gold Medal Awards have been handed out for three great and wearable creations! Christian and Chris' lady-like ensemble showed off a belted waistline and camel pencil skirt, which were both featured in RunwayDaily's Wardrobe Essentials! Golf claps for them!
Then there was the great designer combo of the black haired perfectionists - Jillian and Victorya! Their ONE-ARM creation was a trendy spin on the classic LBD (which we've told you about HERE) and looked just ravishing!
Last, but not least, Sweet P and Rami combined for a precious little gray frock with some metallic and tan highlights. I loved this dress for so many reasons (forgiving shape, being numero uno) and would honestly rock it for MANY seasons to come!
I've included some speedy-savvy-stylin' under each look, below. Once again, I've added some really FUN accessories and pieces to the ensembles to make the looks more 'complete' and wearable! How about the adorable pink bag I've added to Sweet P and Rami's Look? L-O-V-E it! Enjoy!

Project Runway: Report Card - Keep Track of RD Gold Medal Awards
When you were younger, did you LOVE to get little gold stars next to your name in pre-school and kindergarten? I sure 'nuff DID! So just a lil' sumthin'-sumthin' to evoke those glorious memories and for all of us to keep track of each designer and their GOLD MEDAL Awards!
This week, Chris, Sweet P and Victorya added an itty bitty gold medal under their picture! Seriously, how can Chris NOT get a lil' Gold Medal...just check out that tie and leopard print jacket, ha! Sweet P surprised me with her gorgeous Champagne Prom Gown and Victorya was the hands-down winner, in my eyes! Cry-baby Ricky is still sittin' tight at 1 Gold Medal, in his lil' pink shirt...boy cracks me up. Christian and Jillian, still in the lead, are also my FAVES to watch!
Some designers have already gotten the RED X and are outtie, but I won't spoil the fun and give that away! I'll update the Report Card each week for you to enjoy!

Project Runway: RD Gold Medal Awards - Chris, Sweet P and Victorya
I'm honestly OBSESSED with Project Runway. I love it, try not to miss it every Wednesday and I'm also not afraid to spend an ENTIRE weekend watching the marathons...pathetic, I know.
Episode 7 aired last night, and once again, RD-Hub and I were glued to the couch, ice cream in hand, ready for another fun-filled hour of design. A great spin was thrown into this week's Challenge: create a prom dress for some young women from St. John High School in New Jersey! Seriously, I was PUMPED! Some designers looked absolutely terrified while others took on the challenge like a champ! Poor fan-fave Christian got a ridiculously annoying lil' woman and boy did he have his hands FULL, in more ways that one! Sorry, but she was just RIDICULOUS! (below)
Ricky, ever the emotional one, cried AGAIN! RD-hub is beyond annoyed with this guy and loves to poke fun so he threw up his hands and cheered, "Ricky's crying...the show has officially started!" I like Ricky and happened to love his background/emotional story! Another hilarious highlight, the High Schoolers MOTHERS showed up to critique/encourage the designer's of their work...that was just a classic move on Bravo's part! (below)
Back to topic at hand...who made the RunwayDaily Prom Court? Chris, Sweet P and Victorya sent pieces down the Runway that just sparkled so they've earned RD's Gold Medal Awards this week! Chris' look was quite possibly the most 'prom-ey' of all but I love the color against his model Krista's (these are really the girls from St. John High School) gorgeous dark skin!
Sweet P's gown was a bit more mature looking, but her model Nicole, worked that gown the whole entire time. You could just see that she felt elegant and glamourous and the gown was exactly what she was wanting.
Last, but not least, was my fave gown of the night created by Victorya! I love sparkly and shiny ANYTHING so the be-DAZZLED neckline grabbed my attention and the BUBBLE hem added girlish charm. Her model, Jessica, smiled from ear to ear and said she felt very pretty in the bright blue frock.
Some speedy-savvy-stylin' below each look...naturally, I've added some really FUN pieces to take the looks up a notch. Faux fur, cocktail rings, cropper leather, oversized clutches, lucite accessories, pavé cuff, and a peacock purse! How much FUN are they? Seriously...I'm ready to go back and do it all over again, only sporting one of these ravishing looks below!

Fan-fave Christian and Twizzler-Be-Dazzlin' Jillian are in the lead with 4 Gold Medals. Kevin's looks are always polished and lady-like, so for RunwayDaily, he's a force to also be reckoned with! Rocker-chic Kit has a lead over the rest of the pack. Hopefully, next week's episode, will create a challenge where more designers SHINE and receive even a FIRST Gold Medal!
Some designers have already gotten the RED X and are outtie, but I won't spoil the fun and give that away! I'll update the Report Card each week for you to enjoy!

Project Runway: RD Gold Medal Awards for Episode 6 - Christian, Jillian and Kevin
I'm honestly OBSESSED with Project Runway. I love it, try not to miss it every Wednesday and I'm also not afraid to spend an ENTIRE weekend watching the marathons...pathetic, I know.
'Oh how I missed you, wonderful Project Runway! B-U-T...you're back!' Last night marked the return of Project Runway's Holiday Hiatus and I couldn't be more pleased. The challenge for Episode 6 started at the Times Square Hershey's Store. Designers were given 5 minutes to pick out ANYTHING and EVERYTHING to create a look. Candy and chocolate went flying everywhere...and darn, there were no brawls over who gets the Reese's!
For the Gold Medal Awards this week, Jillian, once again, came out on top! Proving she was capable of using food products to create her look, Jillian choose Twizzlers as her go-to item. The finished look had incredible movement on the runway that even the richest silk couldn't emulate! Loved it! Rounding out the other two Gold Medals are two of my faves, Christian and Kevin. Both using rich brown tones, their looks were captivating and wearable. Christian's look was composed of the dark brown paper found around the Reese's Miniature Peanut Butter Cups. Kevin opted for 'real' fabric and utilized the oversized Hershey Kisses and Chocolate Bar pillows found throughout the store.
Take time to breeze through my speedy-savvy-stylin' below. Some unexpected twists on each look. I've added turquoise drop earrings and cream trench to Christian's monotone brown look. The addition of a killer black leather bomber and statement-making cuff watch to Jillian's sweet red-dress vamps up the rocker-chic feel. Kevin's look is supremely lady-like so a corset belt, two-tone clutch and femme sparkly hair clips rounds out the curve-enhancing classic ensemble!

Project Runway: RD Gold Medal Awards for Episode 5 - Christian, Kevin and Kit
I'm honestly OBSESSED with Project Runway. I love it, try not to miss it every Wednesday and I'm also not afraid to spend an ENTIRE weekend watching the marathons...pathetic, I know.
Episode 5 aired last night and seriously, I'll give it an OK! I was sad to see one of the designers leave (due to medical reasons) but HAPPY to see the return of another one that had already been given the 'boot.' The hub and I hunkered down for an hour of entertaining TV once again, and as RICKY started to CRY again, RD hubby promptly said, "Well, I guess it wouldn't be a show without Ricky crying again!"
The mission, for this episode, was to take an previous FAVE ensemble of a previously over-weight woman and create a NEW LOOK from the same fabric. The models featured are the ACTUAL women who have lost amazing amounts of poundage...it was pretty impressive (it actually felt like I was watching The Biggest Loser for a few moments). My Gold Medal Awards have been handed out and Christian, Kevin and Kit find themselves leading the pack. Kevin's look was sooooo ravishing coming down the runway and you could tell his model just 'felt' gorgeous! I love how Kit used the pop of orange and paired it with black and it DID NoT look Halloween-ey. Christian's look just ROCKED, once again, and he, as always stated on the show that his look was nothing shy of "FIERCE!"
The speedy-savvy-stylin' for Project Runway looks will never be dead-on as I love to add killer accessories, trendy spins and fresh handbags. I would totally sport my speedy-savvy-stylin' of Kit's look to ANY Holiday Soiree and feel absolutely elegant and oh so chic! L-O-V-E it!

So just a lil' sumthin'-sumthin' to evoke those glorious memories and for all of us to keep track of each designer and their GOLD MEDAL Awards! Seriously, my girl Jillian is rackin' 'em up...3 of 4 Gold Medals in the last four episodes! My fave personality by far, Christian (I totally want to go shopping with him for a day) isn't too far behind though! Some designers have already gotten the RED X and are outtie, but I won't spoil the fun and give that away! I'll update the Report Card each week for you to enjoy!

Project Runway: RD Gold Medal Awards for Episode 4 - Christian, Jillian and Sweet P
I'm honestly OBSESSED with Project Runway. I love it, try not to miss it every Wednesday and I'm also not afraid to spend an ENTIRE weekend watching the marathons...pathetic, I know.
Episode 4 aired last night on Bravo and was chock-full of some D-R-A-M-A! If you don't check this show out, every Wednesday night, you are really missing something! The skill alone that these designers demonstrate is something everyone can, AT LEAST, appreciate. Every single time I see each episode I'm all ready to pull out my sewing machine and create something spectacular...but it has yet to happen! It's truly inspiring for sure! Mission for this episode was to create a cohesive three-piece Collection with a few added rules (don't want to spoil)!
As usual, I've handed out three RD Gold Medals to my personal TOP fave looks from last night's episode! I also included some speedy-savvy-stylin' for you to emulate the Project Runway Looks too. Actually, this week, I really adore all three looks below and could actually see myself wearing them. In addition to the basics seen for each ensemble, I've also added some killer accessories to vamp up each look, so make SURE to breeze through all pages of killer thumbnails!

Project Runway: RD Gold Medal Awards for Episode 3 - Jillian, Kevin and Kit
I'm honestly OBSESSED with Project Runway. I love it, try not to miss it every Wednesday and I'm also not afraid to spend an ENTIRE weekend watching the marathons...pathetic, I know.
Last night Bravo aired the THIRD episode of my TOP/FAVE TV show, Project Runway...and the hub and me were once again, GLUED to the TV for another fly-by hour! This week's competition proved to be one of the toughest I've EVER seen in the history of Project Runway! Mission: Create a look for Tiki Barber to wear on the Today Show where he is a guest correspondent. Well, for those of you that know a thing or two about sewing...to create a suit (men/women's) is probably one of the toughest and most complicated looks to take on! Much to my surprise, soooooo many contestants 'went' for it! I was really impressed with their creations and have chosen the top three looks below.
The RunwayDaily hubby had some 'pull' for this particular post. He informed me of what he would actually wear (Kevin's Look) and what was just HIDEOUS (I'll keep that in the fam)! If all men only knew how CUTE we women think they look sporting wing-tipped oxfords, vests and perfectly fitting khakis they'd wear them 24-7! (RunwayDaily Disclaimer - this is our personal opinion!) Can I just get a pause, please...Ok, I'd like to ask all the avid watchers if they ALSO laughed out loud when there was a millisecond of a clip of strong-man Jack carrying Christian into the workroom in a BAG!?!??! Ahhhhh...Christian has stolen my heart and is my favorite extravagant personality for sure! Not to mention, he's also itty bitty enough to fit in a shoulder BAG and be CARRIED, love it!
Ok, ok and back to the post...sorry, I just can't help myself! The RD Gold Medal looks are below from Jillian, Kevin and Kit. Some speedy-savvy-stylin' is also attached! I've added some other combo choices and you, my love, need to make sure to NOTE that every single item is ON SALE! Yeppers...nothing more we women love than purchasing a killer suit for the man in our life only to have it be 50% off! No man-candy...Dads and bros are always needing some new preppy/sporty attire too...'tis the seaon! No worries, I've also included some 'eye candy' for you lady-loves out there too...as the models, this week, were all strappin' young thangs!

Project Runway: RD Gold Medal Awards for Episode 2- Elisa, Ricky and Victorya
Project Runway aired their second episode on Wednesday night and since I was truly in a tryptophan-induced coma on Thanksgiving Day (and I surely enjoyed it, my Boston girls), I decided to hold-off on this post and give my lovely readers a happy Friday present! My post of the top THREE looks from Episode two. As usual, the show didn't lack any drama but there was an incredible surprise guest...Sarah Jessica Parker! The contestants were given $15 and told to complete a two piece look for Parker's line BITTEN, sold at Steve & Barry's stores. Half of the designers sketches were chosen and then those winners had to choose a partner from the remaining contestants. My top three looks from those head designers were from Elisa, Ricky and Victorya...they were stunning and really just mesh well with the proposed BITTEN girl's style. So kudos to all these awesome budding designers...you'll just HAVE TO watch the episode to see who WINS! I've included some teenie-speedy-savvy-stylin' for you, below each look!

Project Runway: RD Gold Medal Awards for Episode 1 - Christian, Jack and Jillian
I'm honestly OBSESSED with Project Runway. I love it, try not to miss it every Wednesday and I'm also not afraid to spend an ENTIRE weekend watching the marathons...pathetic, I know. Last night kicked off Season 4 and it was honestly G-R-A-N-D. Creativity, drama, inspiration, TIM and late nights are all BACK in my life, again, for another fab season! I will try not to post anything about the WINNER of each challenge (I will say that last night's winner was SOOOO well deserved), but I do want to give kudos to other designers pieces that caught my eye AND the models that sauntered down sporting their frocks. I'll award RunwayDaily (RD) Gold Medals every week and add some savvy-speedy-stylin for you to emulate the looks/color schemes. This week's RD Gold Medals have been handed over to: Christian, Jack and Jillian and their fabulous models, Lisa, Aviva and Amanda (respectively)! Golf claps to all six of you, you rocked the Project "Runway" indeed! Make sure to check out all the thumbnails, to see my entire ensemble styling...all are 3 clicks wide, or less!
