"Stylista" Finale: Just Where Do You Think You're Going, Miss Megan?!

It's been a long journey, we've had some good times, some bad times.

Now it's down to the final 3: Evil Megan, her hatted henchman Dyshaun and our self-doubting but sweet Rufflesaurus Johanna.

The 3 begin the show by stating their case for winning. Dyshaun says that in his own way he's a trendsetter. Megan says she's done a lot professionally; "People can Google me and articles from Vogue come up." (I guess if we knew her last name.) Johanna says fashion is her passion.

The show takes an "Apprentice-like" turn by having the 3 interview with Elle editor-in-chief Roberta "Robbie" Myers. Robbie walks out to meet them and Megan calls her "impossibly chic." It's true; her mere prescence makes Anne Slowey seem a hausfrau.

"Stylista": Zac Posen Slums

We're down to the Final Four and with Kate gone, the drama is on a low hum.

We begin with Johanna, the ruffle-loving military analyst who speaks fluent Chinese, flaunting her insecurities and Megan encouraging her self-flogging.

Johanna reveals that, because she has no experience in fashion, her true love, she started a fashion blog
so she could have writing clips (there are ruffle photos EVERYWHERE). Sadly, her impressive resume would only get her a yucky job in defense.

"Stylista": Kate's Last Stand

With a week off for a recap clip show, there's a fresh new sense about our potential stylistas.

OK, not really. The week picks off just like always: Kate.

This time, it's Johanna spewing. If you remember, our military analyst had taken on Kate as her project. Everybody hates Kate so I will show that Kate only need a good handler, Johanna thought.

But that didn't work out too well. Kate came out a star and Johanna ended up looking like a loser and breaking down in tears.

This week, Johanna says she thinks Kate should have gone home, instead of Danielle. "I wanted to show I could work for someone difficult and there was no reward for that." Actually sweetie, a good deed is its own reward.

"Stylista": Remember the Bungalow!

Behold Kate's power.

With six contestants left, Dear Sweet Cranky Whiny Kate is ascending.

As we start this episode, she's even got Megan on the defense, wondering how Kate keeps hanging on.

The first task this week is to purchase a thank you gift, worth no more than $250, for the owner of New York hot spot Bungalow 8. Anne will be throwing a party there.

The six get to pick their own team of two. All that matters is that Dyshaun gets Kate. By default, of course.

Johanna and Megan choose a cashmere throw. Anne deems it not a heavy enough gauge.
Megan and Danielle put together a survival kit of items for flying. Anne says it's too low-brow, a goodie bag.
Dyshaun and Kate choose a vintage pin from Chanel. Their pitch is going well, until Kate says that she knows the woman likes art so this piece should impress her. Anne asks Kate what art it reminds her of. Kate says "Uh, you know pictures and stuff." Actually, she just stands there with a dumb look on her face that says that.

 

"Stylista": No experience necessary

Yeah! There was more Danielle on the show!

Danielle is the chubby girl on the show with the cool glasses who quietly shows she has style by her interesting color choices and ability to dress herself properly. Danielle got more of a showcase last night and from the previews it looks like she gets some real airtime next week.

 

 

 

"Stylista": Megan meets her match?

It's the second week of the CW's "Stylista" and it's time to choose sides.

Are you a Meganite or an Ashlienian?

"Stylista": Free Kate's Boobs!

The folks from ANTM gave birth to "Stylista" last night and oh, it was a gorgeous mess.
