I love the show like daddy loves Shelly (movie line, I digress). I don't care that it's focused on materialism or that it's an hour long commercial for luxury brands. In the world we live in, I could use a break from discussions on politics, oil and war. <BR/><BR/>Awww, Rachel, I would love to be a fly on her wall. Yes, she looks a bit haggard in the face, but I still think she's adorable. She inspires me to want to look my best even if it is just a regular ol' day.<BR/><BR/>Taylor...ok, although I'm sure she knows her shit and exactly what to do when Rach spazzes out, I really wish she could just take the time to explain things to Brad. Seriously, she went on complaining for minutes on how the racks were "horrendous" and "horrific" yet she doesn't explain how they are horrendous or horrific until Brad finally points out that he doesn't know how the clothes should be arranged. How is a person supposed to know how you like things unless you tell them?<BR/><BR/>Oh, but I noticed a discrepancy. In the first episode when Rach is on the phone with Piperlime her fingernail polish is nude. Yet, supposedly after her call Rach goes to speak with Brad and her fingernail polish is now a dark shade of deep purple. What the heck is that?!<BR/><BR/>As far as her husband, I think he's a sweetheart. Most boyfriends/husbands would roll their eyes if their girlfriend/wife was acting like the world was ending just because she can't find the right dress/shoe/jewelry.bevyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04020226301555479470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2961219467141009863.post-1685591866761521312008-09-18T18:14:00.000-07:002008-09-18T18:14:00.000-07:00I wasn't even going to watch this show til I saw y...I wasn't even going to watch this show til I saw your positive recaps--I just figured I would hate Rachel Zoe after things I have read about her in the press.<BR/><BR/>I did watch though, and I found her amazingly disarming and actually...quite nice.<BR/><BR/>Though I like Brad I thought his limp ass reaction to the wet gowns was pretty pathetic, and I am not sure if he's really a worker or just one of those people who creates drama to make it seem as though he's overworked.<BR/><BR/>Taylor for sure acted like a territorial bitch, but....I noticed after several of her most vile outbursts that she had a bit of a self-aware smirk, as though she knows what she is doing...could any of this drama be scripted, or suggested, by Bravo? I hope not, I am so fond of several of their shows. Thanks SGM for turning me onto this one.crabapplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03800390897385938669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2961219467141009863.post-78473800790927968672008-09-15T20:33:00.000-07:002008-09-15T20:33:00.000-07:00Brad -- I'd like to see him play the part of Andre...Brad -- I'd like to see him play the part of Andrea in The Devil Wears Prada.

So, I am usually on the SAME page with all of you on the peeps on the tv we like and don't like. BUT, I like Taylor and (gasp) think that Brad would drive me completely nuts. It drives me crazy when someone cruises in to a new job and cutesies his way in and doesn't do any of the stuff he's supposed to do. Stuff that you were 100% held accountable for figuring out yourself. So meanwhile you get to do twice the workload to make up for it while he sits around and chitchats and brown noses with the boss. It makes me bitchy too. So, Taylor, I understand. He should be proactive, pull his own weight.thismslifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04142653586690320773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2961219467141009863.post-75756125932371848242008-09-11T18:53:00.000-07:002008-09-11T18:53:00.000-07:00Ugh.

Just like "fierce".<BR/><BR/>Brad is a peach, and I really hope he hangs in there. What an awesome opportunity he has! Even though Jeff Lewis is hotter, he is definitely harder on his employees, and if JET can handle Jeff, then I think Brad can handle Tay Tay.<BR/><BR/>The Zoe is so freaking glamorous, that I had to pause in the middle of watching and get up and paint my finger nails.
