Episode 1 x The Rachel Zoe Project Season 3: Bye Bye Tay Tay!

Published on August 10, 2010 in Celebrity and TV. 0 Comments Tags: Brad Goreski, Demi Moore, Rachel Zoe, Taylor Jacobson, The Rachel Zoe Project, The Rachel Zoe Project Season 3.

Finally! I got my Season Pass for The Rachel Zoe Project Season 3 from iTunes Store. Gosh, you’ve no idea the wild goose chase I went through to watch the premiere episode of the latest installment. Let’s see, Rachel Zoe‘s longtime right-hand woman Taylor Jacobson has been fired from Team Zoe. Enough said (are you buying your Season Pass now?). Will there be less drama without Taylor? I hope not. Preppy, lovable Brad Goreski has been promoted to Styling Director.

Verdict: I wish Taylor had similar screen time to explain herself (apparently, she was accused for stealing samples from the RZ office) – or at least, redeem herself. The premiere episode absolutely blasted her reputation in the industry. She did say that she couldn’t possibly steal samples since she’s not sample size. Is it unfair? Definitely. Even if she’s wrong, it’s hard not to form an opinion of her after watching this episode! The feud is still ongoing – oh well. I just want a good show. I still respect RZ for her work. Brad is adorable. And, there’s a ‘new girl’ in Team Zoe. The most interesting thing about the episode is styling Demi Moore for a Harper’s Bazaar shoot – yes, gimme gimme Chanel, Oscar de la Renta, Alexander McQueen Till the next episode!

The show must go on without Taylor.

I haven’t caught up with Gossip Girl in awhile. To be honest, the show got boring – and I lost interest. However, I was interested in the new season when I saw photos of Gossip Girl‘s set in Paris. Ahh, I love Paris! And yes, these kids are lookin’ fabulous in the fashion capital of the world. Here’s a sneak peek and tell me if they are good enough to keep you intrigued:

Whoever Loves Glee, say “AYE”! The Glee-sters swopped their cheerleader and geeky outfits for gorgeous dresses by Dior, Marchesa, Stella McCartney, Jill Stuart, Antonio Berardi, Keemia, Tadashi Shoji and etc. And, heels by Christian Louboutin and Jimmy Choo! Ramp up the glam factor, ladies. It is refreshing to see them out of the high school setting for once. I love this photoshoot for the May 2010 issue of Glamour magazine. What do you think?

A bathtub fight with My Little Pony and Nemo!

Fierce, sexy Louboutin and DiorGlamG! I wanna rob you both.

Personal Taste: Yoon Eun-Hye and Lee Min Ho

Published on April 21, 2010 in Asian and TV. 8 Comments Tags: K-Drama, Lee Min Ho, Personal Preference, Personal Taste, Yoon Eun-Hye.

Whoopsie Daisies!

You know I’m nuts about K-dramas by now. I’m currently watching MBC’s Personal Taste (a.k.a. Personal Preference or 개인의 취향) starring Boys over Flower‘s Lee Min Ho and Son Ye Jin. It’s a romantic comedy about a guy who pretended to be gay in order to be this girls’ roommate. I don’t need to go into the details since this is not a K-drama blog. I’m just super excited that Coffee Prince‘s Yoon Eun-Hye will be cameo-ing in this week’s episodes as Lee Min Ho‘s character, Jin-ho’s ex-girlfriend. Oooh, here are some stills from the show – I can’t wait! And, don’t you think Lee Min Ho looks super sharp in a suit?

She’s such a darling!

Two of my favourite actors in the same show – this is gonna be fun!

Fash-Asia: Take Care of Young Lady

Published on September 29, 2009 in Asian, Celebrity, Korea and TV. 8 Comments Tags: Balmain, Lady Castle, Take Care of Young Lady, Yoon Eun-Hye.

Five Reasons Why “Take Care of Young Lady” Rocks

1. Balmain. Balmain. Balmain.

Confession: I’m still hooked on K-dramas. For some reasons, I think K-dramas are much better ‘styled’ than J-dramas. Here’s why: “Take Care of Young Lady” featuring the adorable Yoon Eun Hye as ‘Lady Castle’ – a rich, bratty heiress with a sharp sense of style. I mean, the Balmain jackets defines the character’s authoritative but chic personality. Doesn’t she look fierce or what?

2. Chic Anytime, Anywhere

Her character as Hye Na has amazing clothes and impeccable accessories! Very high-fashion. It’s like watching Vogue ‘live’ on screen. It’s amazing. You won’t be disappointed.

Scooping up chicken poop? Dress in black, wear cool biker fingerless gloves and tie your hair messy messy. I love her chunky diamante and chain bracelets. Sweet!

Time to shoot some ‘fake’ birdies. I think she must be having a blast playing dress up in this show as compared to her old role in “Coffee Prince”.

3. Bizarre Clothing! The Crazier, The Better

Yoon Eun Hye wears some strange stuff on the show which makes it more interesting to watch! Her choice for cycling gear? A long tutu skirt. I’m not kidding, but it was really cute if you ask me!

Bunny Ears ala Louis Vuitton?

Too much drama? Wait till you catch the series!

4. Good Looking Cast

Well, you gotta have the entire motley crew right? And it’s a major plus if they are good looking? (yes, shallow shallow me). Check them out

5. Who doesn’t love BUTLERS!?

YES, a major fantasy of mine – BUTLERS. I want my own Butler! Now, don’t you have dirty thoughts. I already have one at home (without his knowledge!). Hee.

I want one for Christmas Thank you, Santa!

P.S. The show is still on-going!

Gossip Girl is back! YAY! Time to feed on my TV addiction (as if I’m not spending enough time with the idiot box!). Thanks to iTunes Store (best. invention. ever.) – I’m able to get my weekly episodes of GG. The first episode wasn’t a disappointment although I’m not sure about this ‘Carter’ character. I will not spoil it for you – let’s check out what’s in style in ‘Reversals of Fortune’:

Fash-Asia: Coffee Prince

Published on September 12, 2009 in Celebrity, Fash-Asia, Korea and TV. 6 Comments Tags: Chae Jung Ahn, Coffee Prince, Gong Yoo, Lee Sun Gyun, Yoon Eun-Hye.

I spy with my little eye… Korean fashion has been catching my recent attention. It all started with K-drama. I just finished watching ‘Coffee Prince‘ starring Yoon Eun-Hye and the very hot Gong Yoo. A must-see! It’s funny seeing Yoon Eun-Hye cross-dress as a *eh-hem* boy but she was totally convincing. Gong Yoo – I wanna keep you! It’s a fun drama but more importantly, I was captivated by the styling of the set and the costumes. This drama is definitely made for young adults. The styling was tastefully done without being too over-the-top (think ‘Full House‘, eww). I wish I could show more pictures but it seems almost impossible to hunt them down via Google. Well, it seems like you can’t Google everything.

The cast are styled in super chic clothes (except for Eun Chan). Even the set looks awesome.

Han Kyul dresses to kill – well, he carries a playboy persona. Enough said.

Yoo Joo (right) is possibly the best dressed. I could do a whole post on her style.

Ooh, wedding ideas!

I’m shallow. I like dramas with good looking men! Han Sung goes for the geek-cute look.

wait for it

Fash-TV: The Rachel Zoe Project S2

It’s no secret that I’m a big fan of celebrity stylist Rachel Zoe I’m totally bananas over The Rachel Zoe Project – and yes, Season 2 premiered three weeks ago! I got myself a Season Pass on iTunes store (possibly the best online media store to date). I’ve seen two episodes so far and I’ve to say that I’m still hooked. I feel the adrenaline whenever I see stylish & creative people doing their best at work. I love people who are excellent at their jobs. Plus, you get some style tips here and there. If you want to see the behind-the-scenes of Rachel’s world, please catch this show – because I love it. I may be bias but I want to convert like the entire universe into Zoe fans. Let me tempt you with some stills from this season:
