“Making it Work” with Tim Gunn at BlogHer

There were lots of amazing fashions to be seen at BlogHer ‘09 this past weekend, and this week I’ll be posting on them!  But today  I just had to tell you about a very exciting fashion moment I had!  I was wearing gorgeous outfits from my sponsor, Lands’ End all weekend and I felt very stylish.  On Saturday evening I was thrilled to be invited by Tide to a party they had where I got to meet Tim Gunn of Project Runway.  Of course, I was VERY nervous about what he would say about my outfit! It was one of my more casual evening outfits – two Lands’ End layering tanks (orange-red and light pink), a darker pink cotton modal skirt, some fabulous shoes, and a scarf to dress it up. Here’s Tim and I together:

Tim Gunn liked my outfit. SCORE!

And here is what he said to me about my Lands’ End outfit (before I could even ask him what he thought!): “I love what you’re doing with the red and the pink!” He also said that it “takes guts” to wear a color combo like that and that I was totally “making it work”! Woohoo! A fashion icon likes my outfit! Score! After that, I got my courage up to ask him how he liked my shoes. I was wearing these Lands’ End shoes, which I ADORE. But I wasn’t sure what Tim Gunn would think of something so different.

My Lovely Lands End shoes!

Tim’s verdict?  He said the shoes were “great”!  I said, “You wouldn’t lie to me would you?”  He assured me he would not.

So there you have it! My Lands’ End outfit was Tim Gunn-approved!  I think this should pretty much solidify my style street cred!

    I love him. Truly. I can’t say how jealous I am about you, getting a photo with him, let alone his approval. Lucky Duck!
