tiki!

I haven't been able to bring myself to leave the apartment at all today. It's just been one of those days. Actually, I sense it's going to be one of those weekends. And so I've been alternating between napping, catching up on tv and watching football.

This week's Project Runway featured making an outfit for Tiki Barber! The man has has crazy shiny white teeth, btw. Most of the contestants didn't have a clue who he was and Tim Gunn trying to explain that he used to play football for the NY Giants didn't really help much. This challenge turns out to be somewhat of a debacle since many of the designers have never done menswear before, and this is the first time there's ever been a menswear challenge on this show. The further into the task it gets, the more of a trainwreck some of the designers' creations are. Tiki's wife Ginny shows up to give some critique and advice, and I find her personality to be just a tad underwhelming, but who am I to judge - she's married to Tiki Barber.

Jack ends up creating the winning look, a nicely done contrasting striped shirt with pinstripe pants. Supposedly Tiki agrees to wear this winning outfit on the Today Show. I'll have to investigate that one.























In the bottom three are Sweet P, who creates a super messy looking shirt because she couldn't quite get the proportions right in her patterns, Ricky, who makes a very boring suit that is not only dull, but unfinished as well and has pins hanging everywhere, and Carmen, whose outfit doesn't have a shirt! No joke, she ends up taking the fabric that was supposed to be the shirt and draping it around his neck. What a disaster, and alas, it's bye bye to Carmen. What did she think she was doing, trying to put this outfit on Tiki?!

How embarrassing.
