FabSugar News: Rachel Zoe Project on Bravo!
In reading my daily dose of FabSugar this afternoon, I was stoked to find out Rachel Zoe will soon have her own show on Bravo TV based on her life as a celebrity stylist. Zoe dresses A-list clients Nicole Richie, Lindsay Lohan, and Kate Hudson to name a few. Airing date is TBD, but I’ll keep you posted!

25% off J Brand Jeans Until Sunday
Good timing for anyone looking to get their hands on a pair of J Brand Lovestory jeans. Active Endeavors is offering 25% off all J Brand jeans through Sunday, January 13.
Still in love with J Brand Lovestory Jeans
The J Brand Lovestory Bell jean first caught my eye when Kate Moss was photographed wearing them last Spring. After finally getting a pair in the Ink color a few months ago, I can honestly say they are the most flattering jeans I’ve ever owned (by the way, designer jeans are my weakness).

Retailing for about $178, J Brand offers the Lovestory in several colors. Though Ink and Dark Vintage seem to be the most popular, last week they started shipping a new color, Miner (my stylish friend Shel bought them last Wednesday and she’s obsessed!). A few months ago, J Brand began offering a lightweight version of the Lovestory which I find to be just as flattering and incredibly comfortable.
The fit:
Though J Brand usually runs true to size and sometimes a size big, you may want to go up a size in the Lovestory given they run narrow through the thighs.
- 2″ waist band slims out the hips
- Lower pockets lift the butt and elongate the legs
- 2″ cuffed bell bottom looks stunning with boots and pumps
- Stretchy jeans that actually keep their shape
Where to buy:
Revolve Clothing: Use code tbyearend07 or revolveh07 for 20% off. They also offer free 2-3 day shipping both ways on every order.
Active Endeavors: Use code jbrand through January 13 for 25% off. After the 13th, use code grechen for 20% off.

Zac Posen Sweetens up Project Runway
Project Runway, Candy, and Zac Posen–what’s not to like?!
This week (Season 4, Episode 6) designers were challenged to create sweet confections out of Hershey goodies they gathered from the Hershey store in Times Square.
Though Hershey ate up some of the spotlight in the beginning, the judging brought forth another sweet treat when Zac Posen appeared on the right of Nina Garcia, Michael Kors, and Heidi Klum!
Though he wasn’t highlighted in the top 3, Christian’s peanut butter cup wrapper dress gave meaning to the Episode’s title, “Eye Candy.” In the end, Elise’s paper bag-esk attempt at Grettle sent her packing back to the vegan ginger bread house she probably lives in.
So far, my fav’s are Christian, Kit, Kevin and Rami.
