Wall Street Journal Article on The Weinstein Co. Featuring a Photo of Tim Gunn and Nick Verreos


Nick and Tim...Make a "cameo" in the Wall Street Journal


A very good friend of mine was reading today's edition of the Wall Street Journal and she emailed me saying "Did you see the WSJ today? There's a photo of you and Tim Gunn?" Well, of course, I was intrigued. I asked what was the article about? She said it was regarding The Weinstein Co. and how the Weinstein's are "Tapping into TV" and of course, mentioning a little ol' show called Project Runway. I went online (the new way of reading the newspaper n'est pas?) and yes, there it was, the article and a little photo of Tim Gunn and I circa Season 2 back in (I'm not naming the year kids!) (see left). Fun times...I remember him coming to my table discussing the challenge as if it was yesterday. And yes, I still have that blue plaid Western Shirt; it's packed in my "Project Runway Archive Suitcase", in case you are wondering...

Below is the Wall Street Journal article:

MOVIE MOGULS TAP INTO TELEVISION PRODUCTION

By Lauren A. E. Schuker

The Weinstein brothers are making a renewed play for the small screen.

Harvey and Bob Weinstein are among several Hollywood movie makers ramping up television production this year, with 15 shows in development and a commitment to spend more than $10 million per year on the initiative.

The move signals a comeback of sorts for Weinstein Co., which underwent a major debt restructuring this past summer after producing a string of movies that flopped at the box office and depleted much of the $1.2 billion they raised to start the company in 2005. The restructuring, aimed at placing the studio on firmer financial footing, transferred partial control of its movie library to Goldman Sachs Group.

On the left is another fun photo I found--in my photo archives--of Monsieur Gunn and I--from "back in the day"...

Nick Verreos on TV Guide Network's "2011 Golden Globes Fashion Wrap": Photos from the Set and Full Video of the show!

It's a New Awards Season!!!
The Adams...I Mean "Fashion Wrap"...Family: (Clockwise L to R) Kara Birkenstock, Kim Vo, Nick Verreos, Jen Rade and Lawrence Zarian, 2011 Golden Globes Fashion Wrap

Last Sunday, as y'all (yes, I'm a "Southern Belle" at heart!) know, were the 68Th Annual Golden Globe Awards (Oh Ricky Gervais, you're so cheeky!) and as usual, the following Monday, it was time to give our Fashion "Hits" and "Misses", Best and Not-so-Good, on our TV Guide Network Golden Globes Fashion Wrap.
Early Monday morning, I got to the TV Guide studios--armed with my "cheat sheet" from all the fashion "Who Wore What" homework I had done the night before. Thank goodness, I had my NIKOLAKI--and nickverreos.com blogging partner--David Paul helping me out with HOURS upon HOURS of research.

Lofty: The TV Guide Fashion Wrap set, TV Guide Studios

The new set looked AMAZING, with a sleek black leather couch from one of my favorite furniture showrooms, HD Buttercup, minimalist Mid-Century looking tables, a new plushy rug, and a "view" of the Downtown Los Angeles skyline; it looked very "Downtown LA Loft".

I was excited to re-join my Fashion Team host-with-the-most, Lawrence Zarian, as well as my Fashion Team "girlfriend", Jen Rade who was fresh off of styling the STUNNING Angelina Jolie the night before in that Made-to-Order emerald green sequin paillette Versace Atelier gown. Also joining the "Fashion Wrap" team were Master Colorist to the Stars and Stylist Kim Vo, and the beautiful shoe expert Kara Birkenstock. The show debuted this Monday night and it was as much fun to tape as it was to watch!

In case you missed it, well: You're in luck.
A) You can still catch it on TV Guide Network: Sat Jan 22 11AM, Sun Jan 23 3PM, and Sun Jan 30 2PM, OR...
B) I've got the entire show below. So pour yourself some coffee--or Red Wine--and click away and watch our crazy TV Guide 2011 Golden Globes Fashion Wrap--and let me know if you Agreed or Disagreed, with our comments and/or picks. I promise I won't be offended. That's the great part about fashion, EVERYONE can have an opinion, it's all very subjective--as well as fun!

Denim Heaven: Nick Verreos filming TV Guide Network's "The Fashion Team" at Levi's L.A. Showroom!!!


One Can Never Have Too Many Jeans...

Align CenterI Want That Pillow: Nick Verreos filming TV Guide Network's "The Fashion Team" Show, Levi's Showroom Los Angeles

This past week we filmed our latest--the first of 2011!-TV Guide Network "The Fashion Team" show, on location from the Levi's Showroom in Los Angeles. The Showroom is located in West Hollywood North of Sunset Blvd., in a fabulous Craftsman-style home. When you walk in it's like you're in DENIM HEAVEN!!!!

Denim Comes In Three: Lawrence Zarian, Jen rade and Nick Verreos, Levi's Showroom Los Angeles

And I was--along with my "Fashion Team" cohorts--stylist Jen Rade and host Lawrence Zarian. It wasn't very difficult to style myself the morning of the shoot while at home, since I basically have a entire section in my Walk-In Closet devoted to Levi's: I own SO MANY Levi's it's kind of RIDICULOUS:

Italian Levi's: Nick Verreos and fellow Project Runway Alumna, Season 6's Althea Harper while in Florence Italy Summer 2010 at the Polimoda Institute, wearing Levi's Super Skinny 510 jeans

Levi's Angels: Nick Verreos Hosts a Fashion Institute of Design & merchandising/FIDM event at their San Diego Campus, wearing Levi's Capital E Matchstick Slim Straight jeans

I have about TEN pairs--black, regular denim, Tiffany Blue (I know: Shut Up!) and... even a Kelly Green pair (Hello! What part of "Nick Loves Color" did you not understand?), plus, of course, several Levi's shirts and jackets. So, for the shoot, I got my zip-up band-collar Levi's Jacket out and my black Super Skinny 510's (My Fave!) and called it a day! (I threw in a Marc Jacobs dress shirt and an old Urban Outfitters knit tie for balance).

Looks Like My Closet: Neatly folded jeans at the Levi's Showroom Los Angeles

It was great fun being at the Levi's Showroom and PS: Those Showroom reps are SOOO CUTE!!! (sorry guys!). I also loved that they had their own Embroidery Machine (at first I thought it was some sort of a super-duper overlock/serger machine) and a steam/iron set-up right in the middle of the Showroom. Custom, well-pressed jeans possibly?

The Episode--in which we give our "Fashion Two Cents" on what celebs wore on New Year's Eve, as well as the first week of the new year--- premiered on Friday but you can still catch it:
Monday Jan 10 1:30PM, Wednesday Jan 12 1PM, and Friday Jan 14 6PM

Nick Verreos on Style Network's "Style Star" TV Show: Debuts TONIGHT!!


Angelina, Kate and Nick???

On The Style Set: Nick Verreos on the set of Style Network's "Style Star" TV Show

I'm so excited that TONIGHT on The Style Network, the new Season of "Style Star" will debut--and yours truly has been called in to be one of the panel of commentating experts--for the ENTIRE SEASON!!! The show airs EVERY Saturday night and of course repeats throughout the week.

In case you might be out of the "Style Star" loop--the show highlights Famous A-List celebs and what makes them STYLE STARS! Every week style and celeb experts including America's Next Top Model Judge, Photographer Nigel Barker, former Rachel Zoe assistant, stylist Taylor Jacobson and my good friend, Marcellas Reynolds--will go through and "enlighten" the viewer on what makes Charlize Theron or Penelope Cruz or Kim Kardashian ROCK...in terms of style. Are they just born with it? Or is it because of fabulous and intelligent style guidance via stylists and beauty handlers...

For the first show tonight, it's all about the one and only SUPER-actress Angelina Jolie and the Brit-gorgeous Kate Beckinsale. We dissect all their red carpet looks from their early days (Yes Angelina, we're talking about that blood vial) to Kate and that OUTRAGEOUS Mermaid of a gown...

Hope you guys enjoy the season of "Style Star"--there's LOTS more Style Celebs to come---

Click HERE for the rundown of all the airing dates of the show--

But for this first one (in case you missed the Debut tonight): You can still catch it tomorrow--Sunday at 12:00 AM, 12:30PM and 10:30PM and through the rest of the upcoming week--check your local Style Network Cable Listings.
