The Rachel Zoe Project: AH-MA-ZING!

I first heard of Rachel Zoe several years ago during her dramatic fallout with Nicole Richie that took place in the pages of US Weekly. She has taken a lot of heat in the press for her extremely tiny frame, but I think people lose focus of her amazing gift. She is a genius stylist with clients such as Cameron Diaz, Eva Mendes, and Anne Hathaway.

Watching her show is like slipping into a glamorous dream world. Her adorable assistant Brad is the most hilarious and fabulous sidekick! I love when the camera pans the couture confections and crazy gorgeous accessories in her studio! The first episode of the Rachel Zoe Project didn't disappoint. A few months ago, I saw a blip on the People Magazine website saying her assistant, Taylor, had left the company. Now we know that little bitch was ripping Ms. Rachel off! Although I do have to say, she had amazing hair!

We got to watch Rachel handle this scandle with grace, and of course, some dramatics. We also got to see Demi Moore in a beachside photo shoot feeding a giraffe in huge, heeless boots (think Lady GaGa's constant footwear). I can't wait to see what the glorious Miss Zoe has up her caftan sleeves for the rest of the season!

Discount Designer Drama

I have recently been on the hunt for discounted designer deliciousness. I'm addicted to eBay, fighting tooth and nail for True Religion jeans and Lacoste sweaters. I discovered the Ideeli website, which offers great bargains on beautiful clothes. The only catch is you need to move fast or you'll miss out. Many items sell out quickly.

A website I recently joined, but am not fond of, is guiltlessglamour.com. It's an auction website, and you receive five free bids when you join the site. However, the packages for bidding are pricey. The smallest package is 25 bids for $24.95. Another annoyance is that when you bid, the time snaps back and allows more time for other bidders to attack. To me, this seems like a scam to use up your money as fast as possible.

Although I love the thrill of the chase, I'm starting to think I should just start buying retail and save myself the stress of bidding and bidding again. Then again, my beautiful white $7 vintage Lacoste sweater was totally worth the battle.
