WILL YOU D.I.E FOR Z.O.E.??? THE RACHEL ZOE COLLECTION REVIEW

So any fashionista who has ever aspired to be a stylist in America...operative word America...knows who Rachel Zoe is...I'm sure the lovelies across the pond do as well...but uberstylist Rachel Zoe is known to all of those who have ever dreamed of styling celebs. As most fashionistas aspire- Rachel Zoe has decided to create her own collection and I just had to check out if any pieces caught my attention. I will say while she has the eye- I was a bit unimpressed by all she provided. While these pieces are pretty FABULOUS they are definitely not for the frugal and there were only a few that I would as she would say D.I.E. for and I'll tell you why and then you can check for yourself

Issue 1: Rachel showcased a few pieces on her hit Bravo TV show- the Rachel Zoe project- one being a fully fabulous 70's style revival of the scrunched ankle jumpsuit in a craving of the color camel I would kill over-only to not release it in any of the major stores...ummm yeah DISAPPOINTED and then also Nordstrom's showcases this scintillating sequins oversized black and white blazer in its advertisement but not available for sale- WHAT THE FCUK???? yep

Issue 2: While I understand fashion repeats itself- with someone of her plethora of knowledge and skill I expected a little more innovative for the price point. Meaning she hit us with a faux fur vest which we all know RZ loves, a Chanel remake cardigan (duh) and coordinating chain bag which was made with calfhair which I will admit was a nice touch and then her remake of the coveted BIRKIN...hmmm

But like I said take a look and tell me what you think I could be wrong. By the way, RZC can be found at Neiman Marcus, Bloomingdales, Nordstrom, ShopStyle.com, Bergdorf's ...helll at any luxury retailer I'm sure
