Project Runway Winners: Where Are They Now?

project-runway.jpgAs the 5th season of Project Runway draws nearer (next week! Yessss!), I can’t contain my excitement. I have spent the past week watching all the season marathons (one of the perks of workin’ at home!) and I have even been doin’ a little runway walking everywhere I go. Yes, that is a true story.

In honor of the big event (it will be the last good season of the show before it moves to Lifetime…ew), I decided to take a trip down PR Memory Lane. Where are the big winners now and, more importantly, where can I buy their sh*t?

Jay McCarroll:

We haven’t seen much of Jay since his big win on the first season of Project Runway. Well, I saw him once doing some weird thing where he sat in a window front in some store in NY and talked about all the people walking by. But in terms of designing – the reason he won the freaking show – there has been, well, nothing. It has been years since Jay walked that delicious line down the runway and…nothing. Not a peep. Not a single stitch.

Don’t Eat This Chocolate Gold!

chocolate goldI don’t know about you guys, but when I hear about “Chocolate Gold” I picture sticky fingers and coins wrapped in gold tin foil. And as much as I like getting a little mesh baggie full of milk chocolate currency around Christmas time, this kind of chocolate gold sounds even more delicious.

According to fasshonburu.com, “Apparently there is a special process called PVD (for physical vaporization and deposition), during which rose gold is bombarded electronically, which makes the metal change color to a molten brown.

Think brown gold is ugly? It’s not! It looks more like antique jewelry…which I think is goregous.

Hey, if anything, you can tell a white lie and say Grandma gave you that stunning ring.

The contrast between the dark gold and the sparkling diamonds is especially beautful…not to mention really unusual. Read More »
