I have pretty much been playing catch up with tv and honestly I have to say no matter how many times I have seen Santino (you had me at "Designers you get me closer to god") do his impression of Tim Gunn, it never fails and makes me tinkle a little bit it is so funny. I have to say, that Santino just slays me. Some people think he is this gianormous asshole and I have loved him pretty much from minute two when a friend explained that the fashion industry is just going to scoop him up because they love that schtick (and she shoud know actually) and when he laid into Neeenahah Garrrceeah about the lingerie being somthing that is "supposed to come off". It reminded me of this time that I was walking through Victoria's Secret with a male friend and he said... "you know how men like to see this?" (and he held up a babydoll something or another) and I said (naive as hell I have to admit) "no how" and he dropped it on the floor. It was funny as hell and actually very true. And Santino Rice? That my peanut is why I want to tell you... win it baby. Or if you don't... Daniel V should. And I want to (once I have the finacial means) to buy a tshirt from your line (once Bravo gets its claws out). I also want to buy some of Kara's bikini underwear (and reading the description I can just hear her voice in my head saying " The plumbing blueprint gives you definite directions to your very special place" in that South African drawl of hers... I love it).
And honestly, I want Santino to win and be "in" because Chloe's big pink monstrosity reminds me very much of my senior portrait dress and she should be "auffed" just for that peice alone the way it looks on the hanger. And I have seen the pictures from the runway show and well, not so much on Chloe. And how said is it that Kara's outfits kicked so much ass? I am glad she got in front of an audience. Her layered dresses were really sublime. Totally. Too bad Bravo owns those now too.
Although, I hope that Santino doesn't win, so that Bravo doesn't own his soul. Sure it would be kick ass for him to win the money, the car, the agent, but seriously, the pay off would be he wouldn't own all his line and while the money would be good, I don't know if it is worth it. And seriously... what would Banana Republic bring to Santino's table anyways... let that go to Daniel V. He seems to be the designer that is most Banana to me. I am sure that orange mystic tanned Michael Kors and Heidi Klum would own a peice of him in perpetuity and seriously who needs that? He is way too Hollywood and Vine for that shit. Keep selling your WWSD t's... and maybe another design... sure bravo owns the drawings/sketches for your lingerie line, but maybe you could come up with some sketch similar but different and slap that jpg onto cafe press... it would sell like bagels baby. Totally.
Anyways. So I am sitting catching up on tv, obviously Project Runway played a big part in my viewing pleasure tonite. I look forward to seeing the kids on Donnie Deutsch on Monday night on CNBC (check your local listings) as they will do a mini runway.
Been thinking alot about people that used to be in my life lately too. One in particular, only because of some travel plans that I heard about that do not involve me in any way whatsoever but I am completely wishing I could stow away in a suitcase. Memory lane shit. So not worth it sometimes.
Missed Artopia this year, just realized that too, like just now for some strange reason. Not that I could have afforded to even pay the admission but I am totally pissed. I would have found a way to justify going and completely spaced it out. Next year.
I am going to spend the remainder of the weekend trying to decide about going to a Purim party I was invited to or not and what costume I am going to wear. I can't go the super easy route again and wear scrubs and a stethoscope like I have in the past, that costume is a dime a dozen, I have to do better if I go this year. I need to call D and see if she is going to go.
And thats about all I have right now.
