First Annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade Fashion Awards

Okay, okay. So, instead of packing for our trip tomorrow, we just could not help ourselves from doing one last post. And so we present the First Annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade Fashion Awards. The envelope please...

Christmas Shopping Season Kick Off

And so, dear hearts, I must now disappear for a few more days, as I will be doing a bit of Turkey Day traveling. However, don't forget to go shopping this weekend. Or, at the very least, do a little window shopping.

The Fashion Show Ultimate Collection: Swashbucklers Unite!

NEW YORK - NOVEMBER 02: Model Iman attends the Women's Wear Daily 100 Anniversary Gala at Cipriani 42nd Street on November 2, 2010 in New York City. (Photo by Bryan Bedder/Getty Images)Everyone on Team Nami is pissed and terrified that Calvin is on their team (we don't blame them). Even Cal knows it: "The way I've been behaving the past two weeks. Hell I don't think they like me very much." After the bitching dies down, everyone scurries along to meet Iman.



1. The Challenge. Woah. Iman is in a tin foil jumpsuit. Fabulous. Mata Hari, vampires... The challenge this week is to create night time looks inspired by the femme fatale. Fun! The other twist is that the Fashion Show will be tomorrow, meaning they will only have 24 hours to complete their looks.

2. The Workroom. Now that Cesar is in the House of Emerald, he gets to work bossing his new team around and pretty immediately tells Tamara that her fabric doesn't fit in, that she should stop working on her outfit and come help the rest of the team out with the mood board. Of course, when Isaac comes in to check out the mood board, he's not too impressed and also adds "Cal's on the other team now, so you kind of have to beat them." Ha! Team Emerald continues to struggle.Golnessa finds her fabric uncooperative and Tammy and Cesar continue to bicker.


Team Nami, on the other hand, seems to be doing just fine, even with Calvin. They've decided to go with a purple and black 1940s vampire theme. Isaac likes the idea very much. Nami then gets to work, and aside from Rolando seeking help from Cesar (and Cesar actually helps him!), nothing too controversial happens. Of course, Cesar's not the only one consorting with the enemy. Calvin and Tammy are BFFs.
