Are You Shocked Katie Is Still in the Running For Stylista?

If there is such a thing as luck, then Katie on Stylista has it. Even though all the stronger contestants have been wanting her out since day one, she made it to the top five last night. The first challenge asked them to purchase a present that Anne can give to nightlife-queen-turned-actress Amy Sacco. Team Megan and Ashlie prevailed. Then they had to memorize the names of 90 industry insiders Read more

Are You on Team Katie or Team Cologne?

I bet when they signed up to be on Stylista, the contestants did not expect to plan a 10-year-old's birthday party. And not just any 10-year-old: Anne Slowey's diva niece, Erin. Do kids like that really exist? Like any other challenge, some hopefuls went above and beyond, while others fell behind. Johanna's party idea — fashion show and an illusionist — claimed Erin's interest, so she won the Read more

TV Tonight: Stylista

OK, I have to know: Is anyone enjoying the CW's Stylista as much as I am? Yes, it's insubstantial fluff, but sometimes that's exactly what I need — and the show's filling the cattiness void left behind by this past season of Project Runway quite nicely. The show can be a little overdramatic (last week's hospital trip, anyone?), but I'm actually pleasantly surprised by how much the tasks Read more

You may have been snickering when the contestants on episode two of Stylista couldn't define some fashion terms, but do you know the meanings? We'll find out. But before we move on to the style glossary quiz, let's quickly discuss the episode. I thought The Hills was dramatic, but this show takes the cake. Fashion causing panic attacks?

Reminder! Stylista Premieres Tonight

While Buzz can give you the complete lowdown, I'm here to remind you to simply watch. Stylista premieres tonight on the CW at 9 p.m. We got a too-short taste of fashion television via The Rachel Zoe Project, and Project Runway has concluded, so there's room for a new guilty pleasure, yes? I've watched the first couple episodes, and though it's a bit melodramatic, it is entertaining. P.S. What I Read more

TV Tonight: Stylista

Maybe it's a little bit of wish fulfillment or just my journalist nerdiness coming out, but I'll watch pretty much any show having to do with work at a newspaper or magazine. So when I first heard about Stylista, the new Tyra Banks-produced reality show that premieres on the CW tonight, I had a sense it might be right up my alley. Stylista pits 11 aspiring magazine editors against each other as Read more

The fun rolled on this weekend at the TCAs! After the panels on Saturday and Sunday, came last night's big party. The crowd included old favorites from The Office, new all-stars like the cast of Kath and Kim, and a few select Heroes, including Hayden and Milo, who kept their distance. The Bravo reality stars kept us laughing all night at the soiree. Another special treat was the beautiful Bar Read more
