BYE BYE MR. ESTRADA.....


Well, Project Runway (PR) was on again last night...*sigh* and I actually got to watch it in the living room ON THE VERY NIGHT IT WAS AIRING!!! Usually I watch it on Saturdays via hulu.com. I was in heaven. I even had my brother and step-son watching. The hubs came in half-way through and he reluctantly watched it with us.

Here was the challenge from the PR site, "...Anyway, this week's show presented the designers with an interesting challenge: create a signature look for the Campbell soup "adDRESS Your Heart" gala, for women affected by heart disease. They're designing for real women -- i.e., not the size 4 or 6 skinny model body type. And the design must feature red fabric and elements inspired by the Campbell soup logo..." yea....good luck with that.....

Hometown boy (San Diego), Jesus Estrada took the bow this week. It was just a matter of time for Jesus. Though he can sew and construct, his design and taste elements were not high enough to satisfy Heidi, Michael and Nina. Too short, too shiny, too many jewels, too...too...just too much. He seemed very nice and evenly tempered. It's always a little sad when someone goes home. Almost always...

So, that's that for this week.

I think Mr. E. had one of the smaller sized women. She was older, but smaller. Hope you and Jacob like the Ping episode...HAHAHAHAHAH

i woulda gone with something using the andy warhol painting, i think. a t-shirt with his tomato soup on it, leather knickers, scrunchy, over-sized knit sweater with a giant collar and sleeves that are too long.

(jeeze....i think i'm channeling my inner designer!)

guess jesus woulda had to get copyright permission,etc. to use andy's work. no time for that. MAN. celebs are SO HIGH MAINTENANCE.

I have to say that I agree with the judges decision. Por Jesus lacks taste, he just does. I think I wore that dress in the 90's.

I wish Eli would stop signing in and then not sign out. I think next time I make a comment about me wearing a dress, I'll let everyone think he was the one that said it. :)
