Make ME Work

I never get over the glorious irony of me being totally consumed with Project Runway. I love this show, and it is the only "reality"/game show that I watch religiously. I usually enjoy the judges more than the contestants. Nina being a total b-word, Michael Kors saying "chic" every four seconds, and especially Heidi. I love how unforgiving and harsh Heidi gets when a designer has half-assed a look. Her eyes go black and the German accent becomes more pronounced. She is so cute and dainty, but she will cut your heart out and eat it in front of you with saurkraut if you send some sloppy shorts down the runway.

However, the hero of this show will always be Tim Gunn. He is an overnight success! Ladies and gay gentlemen around the country have embraced Tim as a fashion guru and life coach of sorts. Last year Tim made an appearance at the Rosedale Macy's and for a $50 purchase you could actually talk to him. The crowd was crazy.

Tim had a show called "Tim Gunn's Guide to Style" where he made house calls to fashion disasters and helped them become a fashionable version of themselves. Unlike most of those type of shows, where the bitchy experts faint everytime they see cotton, Tim was actually positive and helpful. What a champion. He still threw away all the awful fauz pas pieces, but at least he was upbeat about upgrading the situation. At the end of the day all he had done was brainwash the lady of the week into his views of flawless taste.

I would like to extend a challenge of sorts to Tim Gunn. We all know that you have impeccable taste. We all know that you sleep in a suit (like Barney Stinson!). We all know that you are morally opposed to the "casualization" of American culture and want sweatpants banned forever. What I would like to know is: can Tim Gunn "make it work" within the comfort zone of one of his distasters?

I want to watch a show where Tim Gunn comes to my house and has to build me a wardrobe that follows MY guide to style, not his, and still makes me look presentable and, what the hell, chic! I have three guidelines that he needs to follow:
1) My body needs to be covered at all times at the very least by the equivelant of a t-shirt and shorts.
2) No itchy or clingy fabrics
3) No uncomfortable or elevated shoes

wait, four guidelines...
4) Factor in the fact that the first thing I do when I get home everyday is put on gym shorts or sweatpants, depending on the season. What are you going to do about it, TG?

Good luck, you dapper bastard. Make me work!
