Style Rules with Rachel Zoe



If you follow me on Twitter, you may have seen a few tweets going back and forth alluding to a certain Rachel Zoe video. Well, no April Fool's joke here -- just a couple of short weeks ago, my good friend Heather of Heather in a Candy Shop and I were chosen to compete in Rachel Zoe's Style Rules competition, presented by LG Marquee.

The concept was simple -- a styling challenge to be completed under 90 minutes, with a budget of $200. But when you have a film crew following you as you frantically run around San Francisco in heels, trying to abide by Rachel's styling criteria AND worry if you have lipstick on your teeth -- the challenge was anything but simple!

All in all though, I had a blast hanging with an amazing film crew, getting to chat with Rachel Zoe (!!!) a few times on the phone and, of course, goofing around with Heather! Enough of me blabbing away though, right? On to the show! Hope you enjoy the video!

    Krystal, I really enjoyed watching this video. You are so clearly a stylish, calm, courteous and most importantly, I think, decent person. Your blog is an inspiration to me. I learn every single time I visit you here to see what you're wearing. I cannot tell you enough how much your sweet character shone through during the challenge of this video. Enjoy a safe New Year!
