I LOVE What Not to Wear--probably because I have NO natural fashionista qualities whatsoever! When I look good I feel better, so I'm trying to make an effort to dress more nicely and not just throw on the work-out pants + fleece outfit.
Any other fans out there? What are your favorite Stacey and Clinton tips or favorite episodes?

Oh I wish someone would nominate me! I don't dress bad but could sure use some new clothes! Most of the time I really like what's on the mannequin but I'm too short to wear the pants or don't think it would look good on me because I'm not toothpick thin or something like that. I always WANT to shop, but once I do, I stink at it!

OH -- and we can discuss episodes you HATED. The one that drove me absolutely BONKERS was the episode where they tried to make over the blonde flight attendant with the high squeaky voice who REFUSED to listen to them. She wanted to "bedazzle" everything and she was HORRIBLE, wouldn't listen to a word anyone said, kept her caked-on makeup look and was just a disaster. What really bugged me was .... I don't know, I guess ... what in our culture made this young, beautiful woman feel like she should be a dumb blonde ditzy Barbie? She spent the whole time pouting and pursing her lips and posing like, "Whaaaaa?" and it seemed to me that she was just wasting her intelligence and rather than being herself was some caricature of what she THINKS she should be rather than who she truly is. Does that make sense? Anyway, if you want to get irritated beyond belief watch that one. I was seriously talking to my TV like, "Are you KIDDING ME?" etc, which I rarely do!!!  AURGH. Can you tell it drove me batty? |

I love that show too! I wish they would have left it on Friday nights though. It's kind of a nice veg out kind of show! I always forget it's on and haven't watched it in a while. I'll have to see if I can catch up sometime and see if it's On Demand.
That flight attendant women bothered me too!

It's my favorite "watch while folding laundry/doing mundane tasks" show because when you DVR it you can watch it for a while, pause it, not see it for a few days, and pick right up where you left off. Plus I need ALL the fashion help I can GET. |

Has anyone been watching the new episodes -- they're from women who live in MINNESOTA!!!! I've seen two so far, one woman in Mpls and another from St. Paul. Anyone know someone who knows someone who's gotten the makeovers? I can't wait to see the next one. My DH knows a DH of one of the women getting a makeover but he hasn't met the woman himself. |
