Please welcome Chloé Harris, SFist's new Style Editor. Why Harris, you ask? Because she has an awesome wardrobe, isn't a slave to flats, and doesn't dress like a 25-year-old Missionite who looks like she's on the school playground. And that's good enough for us. Also, she's a bit of a do-gooder who, along with her spouse Frankie Frankeny, co-founded JustMarried.us, a lifestyle campaign for marriage equality. more ›

This just in: Project Runway winner Christian Siriano (author of Fierce Style: How to Be Your Most Fabulous Self) has canceled his Litquake event tonight in Corte Madera. Why? Because, sadly, he "won't cross the Golden Gate bridge in the bad weather." . more ›

Let's start with "Project Runway," even though the buzz has died down by now, and it really wasn't a surprising ending at all. By this point, you have hopefully seen all the designs in the Fashion Week show, but if not, feel free to rate them yourself! more ›

Let's check in on local girl Marvita, and her quest to become "America's Next Top Model." After arriving in New York, the girls moved into their loft, which, while nice, wasn't exactly posh, what with the bunk beds in one room, and one giant bed in another. Regardless, it was a step up for Marvita, who talked about being homeless, without parents, at the age of 18. Also in the loft: No smoking! And an inspirational quote from Cycle 1 model Robin!? more ›

We're starting with "Survivor: Micronesia - Fans vs. Favorites" again this week because it was a heart breaker. more ›

First up is "Survivor," because nothing much happened in regards to Yau-Man this week. His team won the immunity challenge, and they went off to be their super-favorite selves for most of the episode. more ›

We've got another local to root for on reality TV, as Yau-Man Chan has returned to "Survivor"-land in a new season called "Fans Vs. Favorites." Now, there's little doubt that Yau-Man is a definite favorite. He played the hell out of the game, especially being an old guy, and most importantly, he wasn't a douche bag, unlike so many other "Survivor" contestants. Contestants like Jonny Fairplay, who, for some inexplicable reason, was also cast as one of the "favorites" this time around. Luckily, Yau-Man was able to pretty much put that schmuck in his place by slamming his head into the side of a boat within five minutes of getting on to the island. (Seeing Jonny Fairplay getting his head smashed in is something that never gets old.) Yau-Man also managed to make fire with his eyeglasses, and as you know, fire represents life on "Survivor." In all, it was a great first episode. Yau-Man kicked butt, and Fairplay was sent home. What could be more perfect? more ›

We had a little San Francisco Polyphony of our own on our way to the SF Symphony concert yesterday night to see Gyorgy Ligeti's shimmerily-dissonant orchestral piece of the same name -- the driver of our MUNI bus finally got fed up with people sneaking in through the back door, stopped the bus smack dab on Mission Street, and announced that the cops were coming to bust all the fare jumpers when we got to Van Ness. Alas, we got to Davies Symphony Hall before we could see if he'd made good on the threat. more ›

We found it difficult to tear ourselves away from the "Puppy Bowl" and turn the channel to the Superbowl, but since we were going to skip through all that boring game stuff and just watch the commercials, we figured it wouldn't be too painful. Keep in mind, though, that since we've got TiVo, this is about the only time during the year we actually do watch commercials. Because of that we might not be able to tell whether these Superbowl ads were actually any better or worse than what's on TV on a nightly basis. But we'll still feel free to criticize nonetheless. more ›

Omigod people! A genuine Christmas miracle happened on the latest "Project Runway"!? Didja see it? Wasn't it awesome? Let's discuss. more ›

Sorry for the day late post, but it was a hectic weekend, and we just couldn't bear having to recount the tragedy that was this week's "Project Runway" without at least one good night's sleep behind us. more ›

Previously on "Project Runway" the models were forced to kowtow to the fashion whims of a celebrity. Thank god THAT'S over with! more ›

-- Why, it's our very own SFist Rita kicking it in the comfy confines (and breaking down the latest season of Project Runway) over at SFGate. Awesome. [Culture Blog] more ›

The loss of Simone in last week's episode of "Project Runway" leaves us with one local left to root for. (Although as Rita pointed out in her recap of the show, Jack went to U.C. Berkeley, so that kind of counts. But we'll see how well Chris does before we set our sights on him...) more ›

In Los Angeles, LAist most definitely celebrated Thanksgiving like no other. After all, one has to keep up all the energy to keep on walking the line at the Writers Strike and fighting the unfortunate return of the wildfires in Malibu, which single handedly destroyed over fifty homes within the first 24 hours. National outlets may be covering the fires, but CNN also found it is easier to buy a gun than fruit and veggies in South Central. On the entertainment front, the Red Hot Chili Peppers are suing Showtime over the show titled Californication and Rami Kashou of Project Runway chatted with LAist about his Palestinian heritage and, of course, designing beauty. more ›

The only locals we're following right now are on the fabulous "Project Runway," but after last week's episode, we're going to have to get rid of that 's' in "locals." Read on. more ›

If you're a fan of "Project Runway" you probably know that season four premieres tonight on Bravo at 10 p.m. (And if you're not a fan, what is wrong with you!) We'd be watching not matter what, but we are doubly excited about this season because there are two--TWO!--designers from San Francisco competing this time around. more ›

Last week's winner, the East Bay Express. The man who invented the suction-cup Garfield was defrauded by a friend. A civilly-disobedient city of Walnut Creek refuses to sign a California state loyalty oath, and can't get paid. Cover article: Michael Savage. The title "Savage Hate" is pretty good. Cat show this weekend. SF Jewish Film Fest. I Like Eating satisfies as always, at the second brewpub in California, and the new food critic checks out new restaurant 900 Grayson that's gotten its evening hours permit tied up in Berkeley city politics. Dave Grohl played an unfortunately-named "a-foo-stic" set last week. And Dan, not Michael, Savage tries advising people to enter marital counseling for a change. more ›
