Stylista: The Gift That Keeps on Giving

Okay, let's get back to it. What else happened? Oh, right. They had another shopping competition. Yawn.

At least this was more in line with something an assistant would be asked to do: buy a thank you gift to give for a client or associate.


And the winner is: the only team that seemed to know what the hell the challenge entailed.


"You got $250. I'm not working with a lot. It's cashmere. Give it to the girl. Let's move on."

Yep. That about sums it up.


Being fussy queens, we were appalled at the presentation, though. Seriously, they couldn't tie a ribbon or something around that? Slip it in a bag and stuff some raffia in there? Work with us here, people.


The boobs leading the boob.


Pretentious and too intimate for a business gift. Clueless students.

And speaking of clueless students...

"Our strategy was to grab anything that we liked and we knew we could afford."


What the hell kind of sorority group gift is this crap? Are there little candy penises in there that she can suck on when she wants to feel naughty?

Onward to editorial....

All things considered, this team worked together fairly well.


And while the page wasn't a complete winner, it did have a couple things going for it.


For one, they chose a theme: leather at the party, and that was a smart choice. They also came up with a fairly clever title. A little too precious but it works.


The problem was that the layout was dull as dishwater and too busy at the same time.


And once again Dyshaun makes an egregious editing error by misspelling someone's name. How many of these mistakes have his fingerprints on them? The switched captions, the missing shopping information...how many times is this gonna happen before he gets singled out? We don't know, but the tension is exciting, yes? Who knows WHAT will happen next on Stylista!

Not us, that's for sure!
