Field Report from Ramona Singer's Wine Event on May 24th

2011-05-27T06:46:00.000-07:00

Bravo Fan and Champion Field Reporter, Trish O'Shea met Ramona at a "Wine Signing" in New Jersey. Thank you Trish!

On Tuesday, I got home from school and sat down to watch the "second to last" Oprah episode! While surfing through Twitter, I notice that Ramona Singer (from Real Housewives of New York City) "tweeted", "On my way to my wine bottle signing at Total Wine in River Edge, NJ. Really? Ten minutes away from me (and a store that I drive past every day coming home from work??) Sign me up!

I headed down there a few minutes after 5 p.m. and arrived to see Ramona sitting at a table right near the door. I walked over, introduced myself and told me that I might be posting pictures for Blogging Bravo. She told me that that was fine and thanked me for asking in advance!

Ramona is just like she is on the show; demanding ("Zoom out and be sure to get all the bottles in the picture!"), somewhat pushy ("I'm marketing my wine, my skin care, my jewelry which I am wearing!") and friendly - all at the same time! It was like talking to an old friend!

I asked about the show and the upcoming episodes in Morocco. She said that even though the trip airs in the three parts, the visit was only about 6 days. And she was not worried about seeing the episodes, "They're fine, the show is fine."

The store wasn't filled to capacity, but there were some "Housewives" fans on hand to show their love for Ramona. The very friendly staff was also offering samples of the Pinot Grigio, but I never made it over to that side of the table! However, those who did sample the wine really seemed to enjoy it!

Out of every elimination this season, I think this week's was most surprising. It seemed like a foregone conclusion that Cesar would be competing in the finale. He has been a strong designer all season, strong and confident, and his final collection reflected these elements of his personality. Ultimately, it came down to one of his looks not being bad necessarily but merely being less-good than Jeffrey's.

Cesar, we're heartbroken to see you leave before showing us nine more looks in a finale collection and wish you nothing but happiness and success in your future.

Rachel Zoe Reveals She is Having a Boy

2011-01-12T06:20:00.001-08:00

Rachel Zoe and her husband, Rodger Berman are expecting a boy in April. This has hardly slowed down the Bravo star's busy schedule. Click here for the full story from The Hollywood Reporter.

Congratulations, Jeffrey Williams!

2011-01-12T05:30:00.001-08:00

This week's challenge was to produce a pair of eccentric looks based on accessories hand-picked for each designer by Barney's Simon Doonan. Jeffrey received a pair of quite fabulous chandelier earrings and an amazing feathered capelet for which he created two chic-yet-avant garde ivory looks that were perfect matches.

Originally, he had paired the pants with the earrings and the gown with the cape, but in the end switched them. And they were still perfect.

Congrats, Jeffrey, on your second win, and we're looking forward to seeing what you do next week.

Wow - I think it's pretty safe to say that a lot of us didn't see this elimination coming. After all, Eduardo had won three prior challenges. His work in the past was all extremely well-executed and quite lovely; unfortunately the judges thought it was a bit repetitive with ruffled cocktail dresses week after week after week.

Personally, I like ruffled cocktail dresses.

Eduardo, you should be very proud of your accomplishments on The Fashion Show and we at Blogging Bravo are excited to see what you produce in the future.

BRAVO'S The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Thursday 1/6 @ 10/9c: Taylor's marriage problems continue to weigh on her mind as her husband leaves her alone at a party. Will confiding in Kyle help Taylor work through her issues or is it going to take some serious counseling to get back on the right track? Speaking of rocky marriages, when Camille invites some of the ladies and their husbands over for a game of tennis, Camille doesn't seem to mind that Kelsey is out of the town and gets a little too up close and personal with the male attendees. Will this stir up more trouble between Kyle and Camille or are the two finally putting the past behind them?

This week Cindy was paired with Calvin for a wedding challenge. While the two designers were definitely not a match made in heaven, it was Cindy's construction that was ultimately her downfall. The suit she created for her groom was interesting and had potential, but it did not make the cut.

It was heartening to see Iman give Cindy such a nice pep talk and hug at the elimination...you know if Iman can see the greatness within, Cindy can definitely go places in the future. Our best to her.

Congratulations, Dominique Pearl David!

2011-01-05T05:30:00.000-08:00

With this week's win, Dominique has scored two in a row! Although immunity could have led her to go a little crazy and try something unconventional, she used her simple and elegant design sensibility to turn out a linen wedding dress that pleased her customer and the judges as well.

We can't wait to see what Dominique will turn out next week. Congratulations to her!

BRAVO's The Millionaire Matchmaker 4, Tuesday January 4 – This week Patti deals with one very superficial client and another client with serious commitment issues. Robin, a successful woman in her 30's has very specific physical requests (Hello Mathew McConaughey!) but Patti isn't afraid to call her out on trying to snag a guy out of her league. John, on the other hand, is looking for a real relationship but will have to move out of his comfort zone and face his commitment issues head on. Will Patti straighten these two out and find them love or will their on-going issues cause more matchmaking drama?

Just because you are a millionaire, it doesn't mean you know how to use that money to dress right. Patti brings in the big guns, her favorite image consultant to help her client Matt look the part of a successful and interesting man as opposed to quirky and uptight. Also struggling with appropriate style, Patti's millionairess of the week Elena, doesn't mind showing a little (or rather, a LOT) of skin. Will Matt and Elena agree to play by Patti's rules and attract the right kind of date or will the two clients stick with the looks that have failed them in the past? Find out this Tuesday 12/28 @9/8c on BRAVO's The Millionaire Matchmaker 4.

Will the ladies give it yet another try at friendship or will their drama ruin Taylor's big event? Find out this Thursday 12/23 @10/9c on BRAVO's The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

This week's challenge was particularly difficult in that it involved re-purposing clothes from the Lost and Found into a coherent collection. While David had lots of good ideas in using the various print fabrics he found, the judges were not thrilled with his over-accessorizing.

Poor David - he just admitted he had feelings for fellow contestant Dominique, and now he has to wait to see her again.

David - good luck with your future endeavors. You have talent and you have the potential to go far in the fashion world.

Although this challenge may have been difficult, Dominique really stepped up and used great imagination in re-purposing an umbrella and making a cute dress. The trench coat alterations completed the look and impressed the judges. Dominique's winning design was head and shoulders above the rest of her competition and even among her team-mates.

It was only a matter of time that we would see this young designer win a challenge. With immunity next week, it will be interesting to see how she keeps her promise to show us a different side of Dominique.

The House of Emerald has struggled throughout this competition, and this week was no different. Although the concept of pale and golden-hued fabrics was perfect for the OC Housewives, some of the gowns suffered in execution. Unfortunately, Golnessa's was one of them. She had issues with fit after her housewife left her Spanx at home, and her dress turned out too tight. But the judges' least favorite part was the attached mermaid flounce at the bottom.

Golnessa, we're sorry to see you go and we at Blogging Bravo wish you nothing but success in your future.

Congratulations yet again to designer Eduardo de las Casas who has been setting the House on fire with his designs. This makes three wins for Eduardo, and I'm betting we're probably going to see at least one more before the show is over.

His gown for New Jersey Housewife Dina was gorgeous, it fit her perfectly and showed off her body in all the right ways. Anyone would be proud to wear it on the red carpet.
