I think WNTW is like teaching a man to fish, they learn HOW to shop - so they can apply it to their real life. Ok I'm off my soap box...I need to go scour the streets for Stacey so she can help me out haha. oh, I totally aggree. But for me watching, I think I get more out of how do I look. For the person being made over, what not to wear is def. better!
Yeah, I strongly prefer WNTW and the "fish" thing is so true - it's more of an immersion program - the person has to confront a lot of things they do wrong, from shopping to what they currently own, etc. HDIL ... eh. But mainly because Finola Hughes gives me hives. I can't get past the incredibly awkward red-carpet coverage she did at the Oscars (or something) a few years ago... she was just SO fawning that I was embarrassed for her. And the awkward silences. Ugh. Poor thing.

I KNOW, I saw them (T&S) on the Oprah show a couple months back, and they were talking about their book, I think I ordered it the next day - I LOVE that book, I have two of their books at home, will probably get more. LOL That's pretty cool about Stacy and Clinton - I think they're great. LOL

Random story: I went to a wedding where Stacy and Clinton were guests (my friend works for TLC). Oh my God, Clinton is even funnier and cuter in person. I accosted him and we talked fashion while Stacy got loaded. She is super-cute too, and about 5 pounds soaking wet. Anyway, love the show because of the friend connection, but I love Trinny and Susannah too. I love when they are on Oprah.-- Edited by jj at 15:49, 2005-08-23
