Out About Town: She's Got the Look!

Are you watching Season 2 of She's Got the Look, TV Land's modeling competition for fabulous women over 35? You should be! The adorable Robert Verdi, stylist to the stars, is one of the celebrity judges. Not only is he talented...

...he's also super sweet! In early June, I attended the Robert Verdi and Friends sale at the thrift store mecca, Housing Works NYC. Besides scooping up some fabulous 60's era clip on earrings, a necklace that spells out "MEOW" in CZ's, and a Himalayan purse (totaling $16!), I also met Robert, who quickly grabbed my camera and declared himself the "master" at taking self-portraits like the one above.

During the event, Robert was filming for his upcoming series, The Robert Verdi Show Starring Robert Verdi, coming soon to a television near you. But I digress. This post is all about She's Got the Look!

Besides meeting Mr. Verdi, just last week I met Hope Toliver who competed on Season 1 of the show, at a birthday party at 1OAK. Her slim white suit definitely stood out in the crowd, and I remembered how inspired I was watching her and her castmates; gorgeous women of a certain age following their model dreams!

Lucky for us, She's Got the Look is back for Season 2. Check it out on TV Land, Thursdays at 9 PM/8 Central!
