The Bachelor: As told by A.

Outfit styled by Tara Brooke c/o Tai Pan Trading

Last year (doesn't that sound like forever ago? *wink) I had the opportunity to model some looks for Tai Pan Trading. The outfits were put together by my savvy stylista friend, Tara Brooke, who has such a keen eye for fashion! I fell in love with this sleeveless cardigan that I'm wearing because of the adorable print and how long and flowy it is! Also, I wish I could've snagged that olive green purse.

Sooooooo, did any of you catch the premiere of The Bachelor last night?
Aaaaaaahhhhhhh
I'm so excited for this season.

I'm dying to see what happens next week and what Ms. Sore Loser has to say to Chris in her last chance effort to be saved. But then again, in true Bachelor TV fashion, she'll probably simply ask him to reconsider, he'll say sorry I've made my choice, and she'll go home for real quietly, all within the first 2 minutes of the show. Isn't it crazy what editing can do to make a non-dramatic scene seem over the top dramatic? It's mind blowing.

Here's a little bit of my thoughts on last night's episode and the overall season:

GIRLS WHO SHOULD HAVE STAYED:

Amanda. she had legit crazy eyes up the yin yang but I ended up liking her towards the end for some reason. She wasn't catty with any of the girls and she seemed pretty genuine with Chris. Also, her crazy eyes would have been good TV.
Michelle. Only because she was from Provo and I'm bummed we didn't get to know her as well.


GIRLS WHO SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN THE BOOT:

Ashley. I couldn't tell if she was on drugs, intoxicated, or just straight up psychotic. Let's be real, this was a flat out producers choice for good TV--she'll stick around for another episode or two to serve her purpose then she'll be roseless. I cannot wait.
Kaitlyn. How is someone who said "you can plow the ---- out of my field any day," wife material? Don't know what's going on in that head of yours, Chris.
Tara. HOW. IS. SHE. STILL. HERE. and yet, I'M. SO. EXCITED. THAT. SHE. IS. STILL. HERE.

MY FAVORITES TO WIN:

Britt. This is actually the girl who is made to look like she will win (and still could) but probably won't. Obviously she is the only one Chris had an instant connection with but first impression rose recipients often don't go that far in the show. Telling by the previews, she'll probably get super offended by something Chris says or does, be too overwhelmed, then choose to go home. But then again, who knows!
Jade. There is something genuine about her that I'm getting a good vibe about...
Tracy. Another girl who seems genuine. We will see though as the season goes on...
Tandra. She appears very down to early and her dress was stunning. Go Utah!
Kelsey. On the fence about this one. Her story is very touching and I liked her just going off of the first episode...but the previews made it seem like she's a wild card. I guess we will just have to wait and see!

aaaaand there you go!
The Bachelor, as told by me :)
Let's just pray that Prince Farming won't be as much as a train wreck as Juan Pablo was.

I'm dying to know your thoughts in the comments below!
Let me know who your favorites are, your predictions, and if you think I should do something like this every week!

Also a friendly reminder,

PRETTY LITTLE LIARS RETURNS TONIGHT!
Let's get ready for another season that tells us absolutely nothing!
HURRAYYYYY!!!

  2. I'm nervous about Ashley as well. Something is NOT right with that girl.

  3. haha, I have that same love/hate relationship with PLL! So frustrating, but so interesting at the same time, how is that possible?! I think you should recap the Bachelor, I don't have time to watch every week, but I like reading the recaps of other bloggers who do, so I feel like I know what's going on, so I can swoop in and watch the finale.
