Now that Taylor’s gone, there’s an opening at Rachel Zoe Inc.

We assume Brad’s moved on to first assistant and according to this job listing on Linked in, they’re looking for an Advertising Sales and Business Development executive.

Specifically, they’d like someone to “evangelize The Zoe Report as being a leader in the fashion publication/newsletter space.” They want someone with at least three years experience in ad sales who already lives in LA and has an “entrepreneurial attitude - overcome any obstacle, creative, willing to be an evangelist for a new product.”

We’re not sure what’s up with consistent use of evangelical-related words, but we do think it’d be an amazing job. And while you won’t actually be styling, something’s bound to rub off, right?

Union Jacked: The shredded, Union Jack peek-a-boo jeans Georgia wears in Hudson’s ads? They’re actually for sale. They retail for $297 and we kind of desperately want them. {Hudson}

The Aftermath: Taylor Jacobson says she no longer speaks to anyone in the Rachel Zoe camp. She’s been recruited to talk Twilight fashion with Louise Roe in this video, hates Robert Pattinson’s boots, but loves his Marc Jacobs suit. {E!}

Let Us Count the Ways: We love it when our mascot pops up in the most unexpected places, like on the Lands End website in a striped turtleneck and khakis. We can still hope she walks the Victoria’s Secret runway tomorrow, right? {LandsEnd}

Speaking of VS: Apparently even supermodels have to wait to a year to get their wings. Chanel Iman says she’s not going to be wearing any in her first appearance on the lingerie company’s runway. {InStyle}

Okay, Rachel must be dying, literally, right now.

Her loyal, often sullen, but always, always hard-working styling associate Taylor Jacobson is finally leaving Rachel Zoe Inc. We’ve kind of seen this coming for a while, but the season ender showed Taylor getting a new role (well, sort of) handling aspects of RZ’s growing merchandise business.

But we guess things didn’t get any better. In an email to contacts today, Taylor said: “After four amazing years at Rachel Zoe Corporation, I’m saddened and exhilarated at the same time to announce my departure. After much thought and consideration, I have decided to take the challenging leap to go off and style on my own.”

Who will make Brad and Rach stay focused now? Who will keep Rodg up to speed on Rachel’s vertigo issues? Who will handle all those returns? We hope there’s a season 3 so we can find out.

Whatever happens, we wish Taylor lots of luck in her solo styling career!

I haven’t played Nintendo since the days of Super Mario Brothers and The Legend of Zelda. But, boy, was I into it back then, and not too shabby if I do say so myself.

Today Nintendo DS, the portable one, launches a new fashion-based game called Style Savvy that sounds pretty interesting too. (Rachel Zoe and Dakota Fanning tried it out at the launch in LA.) In it you get to take on the role of boutique owner managing everything from customer questions to budget and inventory.

There are 16 lines with over 10,000 items to stock your store with. And even the customers have different personalities, so you need to treat each one individually in order to get them to come back.

We haven’t actually played the game yet, but it sounds like pretty good practice for the real world. At least you’ll learn more than you would playing Mario or Luigi and throwing mushrooms at random creatures.

Never in life did I think I would be talking about Regis Philbin on Fashionista, but here I am. Don’t get me wrong, I love Reege big time, but you know what I mean.

That all changes today. The Halloween episode this morning featured this fairly hilarious spoof of The Rachel Zoe Project with Regis as Brad!! I loved it so much when he mentioned a dress for Annie. Kelly gets dual roles as Rachel and Taylor, but my second favorite was Gelman’s Rodger, at the ready to make Rachel some toast.

I die. Literally.

Thanks to the magic of television, I’ve seen Rachel Zoe die after Diane von Furstenberg told her “she’d become the woman she’d always wanted to be,” and watched Whitney Port stare blankly as the fashion icon dished out invaluable career and relationship advice. Now, thanks to Teen Vogue’s Fashion University, I’ve heard DVF for myself.

As the program’s keynote speaker, Diane walked out to so many flashbulbs that she had to tell her overly-eager audience to cut it out and listen. Here are some highlights of her lively, inspirational speech.

1. She takes pride in understanding women. Diane believes that clothes should be like close friends: “When you’re standing in front of the closet in the morning, and you feel like shit, you should go for the reliable one that makes you feel good.”

2. She always has a camera with her. Her close-ups of leaves, bark, or anything else she finds beautiful in nature can end up a pattern in one of her collections.

Someone’s started a rumor that Sarah Jessica Parker’ll be the new face of Halston. Let’s count all the reasons we bet on never.

1. Halston is a disaster. Though we’re sure Marios Schwab will end its curse and do something brilliant, a brand can’t have a face for a collection that doesn’t exist (yet).

2. Last time Harvey chose a face, Rachel Zoe, to be associated with a brand, it failed. It really, really failed.

3. As if fashion wasn’t sick enough of celebrity, whatever comes down Lindsay Lohan’s runway for Ungaro this week will probably put off even the most celeb-friendly of the fashion world for a moment.

4. It’d be silly to pay Sarah Jessica Parker to be the face of a brand when Carrie Bradshaw’s been photographed wearing it all over Manhattan, for free, and will be seen on every screen in the same dresses come May.

What’d we miss?

We love Rachel Zoe.

What? You didn’t know?

And we’ve been searching for the perfect faux fur vest for some time now. Though they appear to be everywhere, finding the right one is easier said than done. There are lots of options, but I haven’t come across many cute ones for less than a $100 (and let’s face it, this isn’t something I know I’ll want to wear next year). In fact, the best one I’ve found thus far happens to be from Rachel’s collection for QVC - and it’s only $79.

Unfortunately, the smaller sizes are sold out, so I’m kicking myself for not buying it sooner. I was initially worried about the quality of a $79 faux fur vest, but it’s practically gone and dozens of commenters appear to love it.

Georgia Peach: Just in case you don’t have as massive a crush on Georgia May Jagger as we do, which is kind of inconceivable, here’s a mini-portfolio from Vanity Fair. We like to say we knew her when. {VanityFair}

Herm-Asprey?: Maybe Hermès thought no one would notice if they bought Asprey’s massive New Bond Street store since the whole fashion world’s on a plane to Paris. But they did, and now word is they’re not just buying the store, but maybe the whole company. Interesting…{VogueUK}

Kane Control: From the second I left Heathrow, I was bombarded with Christopher Kane for Topshop. For every fifteen pieces, an original ape popped up, but for the most part with was crocodiles (alligators?) everywhere you looked, as captured here. {Streetpeeper}

I trekked to the Upper East Side for Oscar De La Renta’s show yesterday, because really where else could he have it?

Pre-show, Oscar mingled through the front row which held Vanity Fair’s Graydon Carter, Anna (and almost the whole Vogue masthead), Aerin Lauder and Zac Posen while I finally met Rachel Zoe’s Brad, who scolded me for forgetting my pants.

When the lights dimmed I landed in my seat and watched the collection, which can best be described as decadent fashion dessert, parade by on the elevated runway. Caroline, Iris, Karlie, Sasha, Arlenis and co. wore classically beautiful dresses made of lace, sequins, feathers, brocade and any other lush fabric you can think of. The man’s got you covered for a handful of occasions: an African safari, an English tea party, a Spanish funeral - whatever event calls for a floor length gown and maybe even a lace veil.

Most of us probably won’t end up at that occasion, but if you do, you’ll be the prettiest one there.

Usually clowns freak me the F out, but I was totally digging them at the Temperley presentation last night at MILK. Alice noted that 20s and 30s clowns were the inspiration behind S/S 2010 and you could see it in the black and white prints, the stripes, the tailored jackets, and of course the top hats.

There was everything from super fancy long gowns to day wear. And I’m pretty sure a bunch of those cocktail dresses are going to wind up on a red carpet (Rachel Zoe, take note: I’m seeing definite Jen Garner potential here. She always looks banging in Temperley London.) The bags and the belts were also pretty ridiculous, in a good way. Loving the purple and loving the hardware.

Plus there was the whole beautiful and intricate zoetrope thing happening in the middle of the room that was flashing digital images of models onto one of the walls so quickly that it looks like a film.

Now this is the kind of clown/circus action that I can get into.

I got to Marc at 7:45 - the earliest I’ve ever been in my entire life.

There was a line for ticket holders and a line for not ticket holders. I’m not sure what happened to the latter because my ticket was turned over, flipped upside down and the beefy security guard even read the serial number. Once inside the boiling hot white box I was told a) the girls were painted white and b) Lady Gaga was definitely coming.

I stationed myself behind Katie Grand, Juergen Teller and Jefferson Hack (down the row from Rachel Zoe and across from Anna and Bee) and soaked in all their British (and I guess German) brilliance. At 8:03, Perez Hilton was still by his lonesome and the two conspicuously empty seats were filled with Madonna and Jesus. PR’s panicked, “Lorenzo swore he’d take care of it!”

Iris Strubegger opened in a charcoal coat belted over something cream with a very white face and very Geisha shoes. Ruffles followed on suits, dresses, skirts, bags, scrunchies, they came in tulle and wool and cotton and anything else. Karlie wore a military coat, Stam rocked a black cut-out jacket and Vlada had her bra on the outside. The show ended with a series of beautiful dresses, hand beaded white over nude tulle and cream ruffles edged in black all over slightly loose nude mesh leggings.

Lorenzo and Gaga did show up about twenty looks in. Photographers went nuts, do we photograph the clothes? Madonna? Gaga?

Clothes please.

Marc has instilled such fear in me that I still insist on being punctual to shows even though I always (90% of the time) end up waiting 45 minutes.

So with coffee in hand I sat and watched Mark Ronson DJ for a good fifteen minutes until Rachel Zoe arrived and I could stare at her equally gorgeous nude Alaia wedges. Then I pondered Anna Wintour’s security guard. Has she always had him? Does she need him now that’s she’s a movie star? Was it for the mega necklace she was wearing over her beige dress? Bee sat next to her and I wanted to ask if she made it home with as much random candy as a I did post-Courtney Love. Olivier Zahm ended up on the floor next to Genevieve Jones, but after last night’s debaucherous Purple party I’m kind of impressed he made it at all.

We sat on pink chairs, like last season’s LV shows, in a salon set up while the models walked down a plush pink carpet. A retro, sexy stewardess look kicked everything off - including see-through plastic trenches and maribou furs before Zac went for disco with long pleated dresses and vibrant prints. Rachel Zoe was on, “I die” repeat in my head. That J. Alexander was backstage instructing the girls was clear - they pranced down the carpet with hands in the air stopping and twirling twice before hitting the pit.

It was the best Monday morning I’ve ever had.

Prabal Gurung showed his second eponymous collection yesterday, to a full house including Vogue-ettes, Peter Som, LSD, Rachel Zoe & Brad, Derek Blasberg, Elettra Rossellini Wiedemann, buyers from Barneys and Bergdorf Goodman and a bevy of other impeccably dressed admirers who squeezed into a tiny square of a room high above Chelsea.

The clothes were asking for a major scene on Rachel’s show - they ranged from cocktail appropriate to Oscar perfect, including a pretty major red dress with giant black bows and a skinny white tux with a sheer white blouse underneath; the white Grecian goddess-like dress was our favorite.

Prabal was the best part though - the adorable designer bopped around with the biggest smile on his face. Guess that’s what happens when you manage to create the newest and most major buzz at New York Fashion Week.

Fashion Week unofficially kicked off last night in a small screening room at Norwood packed with Vogue-ettes, socialites, Rachel & Rodger & Brad, Lorenzo, Nathalie Rykiel, Jack, Lazaro, Leighton Meester, Patrick McMullan and the Trainas.

Sundance Channel screened the first episode of The Day Before, the documentary style show that follows designers for the thirty-six mad hours leading up to their runway show. It was, as past fashion documentaries have proven, hilarious, stressful and fun to watch - there’s even a bit with a dog.

Before the screening Jack swore, “We never fight,” with a twinkle in his eye.

Lazaro jumped in to clarify, “In the end, if he sees a black collection and I see white, it’ll be gray.”

Temperley London is once again doing a digital installation for their Spring/Summer 2010 collection, this time at the cool kids locale, Milk Studios. And they just announced a pretty sweet contest, if you’re flexible with your travels schedule next week.

Enter here to win an all-expenses paid trip that includes two plane tickets, a two night stay at the Thompson LES (that would be where Rachel Zoe stayed last season, if you’ve been watching season 2 of the RZP), a meal at Shang, and of course tickets to the presentation. Oh and lest we forget, you’ll also get a private consultation at the Soho store and $1000 to spend.

Um, sounds like something totally worth missing classes or a few days of work for right? If you win, be sure to say hi to me and Britt at Milk. Good luck!

Rachel Zoe is probably dying a little over the news that Marchesa is launching bags at their presentation at the Chelsea Art Museum on September 16th. (The stylist oohed and aahed her way around Georgina and Keren’s studio on last night’s episode of The Rachel Zoe Project. Though did we notice that they misspelled Keren’s name?)

Georgina told WWD that they decided to “approach it the way we approach a dress.” Translation: draping, beading, and of course, rosettes. Because is it really Marchesa without some rosettes? We think not. And they were all designed to hold an evening’s necessities—makeup, Blackberry, and keys.

The line’s prices will range from $995-$5000 (for the exotic skins.) So we’ll just be checking them out on the red carpet for the time being—because you know Harvey Weinstein will have the ladies of Nine working those things right and left come press junket time.
