Fashion Star

Did anyone watch fashion star last night? What did you think?

The concept is quite interesting, but I was expecting it to be a little more like Project Runway than it was. If you didn't see it/ haven't heard about it here is a quick rundown. The designers send a look down the runway, the "mentors" (Jessica Simpson, Nicole Richie, and John Varvatos) critique the look. Then buyers from Macy's, Saks Fifth Ave, and H&M have a chance to bid on the outfits. Whoever has the highest bid wins and will sell the look in the store that they represent, available that night. If none of the buyers make an offer then that designer is at risk of being eliminated. Last night there were multiple people who did not get an offer. They choose the three bottom designers. The mentors then had a chance to save one of them that they thought was most promising. From the remaining two the buyers would decide who was going home.

There were two looks that I would love to have. The first is this convertable skirt by Orly. The top layer can be zipped off so that it can be woren different ways. it was purchased by Saks, and with a Price tag of $363.32    there is no way I will be owning it any time soon, ever.

The second look that I loved was by Sarah. Such a simple dress, and so chic. It could be woren so many different ways, dressed up and dressed down. The best part, with a price tag of $19.95 it is so affordable (at H&M). to bad there is no H&M near me, and no online store :(.

If someone is near one they could pick one up for me ;)


Whether or not this will be a weekly watch I have not yet decided.
