The Finale was tonight. I LOVED that Kenley was the first one 'aufed' tonight. I think she finally realized that amazing clothes don't mean anything if you've got a bad attitude. I loved when they showed her backstage when Time Gunn was announced as the final judge. She said something like, "I guess I should have changed my attitude then." No shit. I do really like the clothes she makes, especially the wide skirts, but to quote every lane motivational poster in elementary school "attitude is everything." Korto's collection was pretty stunning too. I really had a hard time picked between Korto and Leanne, but in the end I felt that Leanne was the rightful winner. Props to Korto for making those last minute outfits that look fabulous. Her use of color and beads was awesome. Leanne's use of the simple colors really made me pay attention to the design itself. I agree with Nini Garcia that there were too many petals, but I think with more time and experience we'll see a lot of evolution from Leanne. As much as I do like her, I still think Christian Siriano was the most likely of all the winners to become a big name.


And now for some browsing...Top from Urbanoutfitters.com. I really love this silhoutte. It's not too wide. I also love the pleating and ruffles on the collar. And that one button that probably has no function.

I want some moccasins! I found these on Nordstroms site. They have them in three other colors, but I figure these won't show dirt as much as the others. I want.


These are cute too. I found these same boots on Nordstrom and Urbanoutfitters so I can't go wrong. I figure these are the one I should buy because not only it winter coming, but I will soon be moving to a colder climate. Perfect!


I finally found a coat that I could live with. It's not the plaid I have in mind, but it's close enough. It's got kind of a fuzzy hood (not too much, which is cool). Plus it has finger holes which is ... useful? (nordstrom.com)


I really want to break out my tights this winter, only I'll probably be too much of a wimp. These would be a perfect dress for that if I did though. The colors are awesome(Urbanoutfitters.com)




I am constantly breaking my sunglasses (the ones I'm using now aren't even 6 months old and they're missing a screw and chipping and it's just so tragic because they're just so awesome and massive). I'm always on the lookout for new glasses because I know eventually I will need them. These are pretty awesome. I like the boldness of them. (Urbanoutfitters.com)
