<p>Let me preface with <strong>&#8220;I love Chris March!&#8221;</strong> from <strong>Project Runway</strong>. I liked him from the onset. His rotund frame and jovial laughter warmed my icy heart. I always knew that <strong>Christian</strong> was going to end up on the final three (talented but cold he is) and I had high hopes for <strong>Jillian.</strong> However here is my two cents on <strong>Rami:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>While I loved loved his first Grecian drapery dress, it got old quick and he seems like a one trick pony!</li>
<li>I started not liking him after that one episode when I felt he was insufferably rude to<strong> Sweet Pea</strong> (whose dress that episode was far superior to his! Karma sucks huh? Ha!)</li>
<li>Lastly, I did not like his looks for the final runway show. While we all <strong>thank god he didn&#8217;t parade a string of Grecian gowns in different colors and fabrics</strong>, I felt the fit was all wrong and it was nothing new or inspiring.</li>
</ul>
<p>Now let&#8217;s talk about Chris March and his use of <a href="http://www.smarter.com/hair-extensions/pl--ch-39--ca-449.html" title="Hair Extensions - Hair Care Products " target="_blank"><strong>HUMAN HAIR EXTENSIONS</strong></a> in his design work!</p>
<p><img src="http://images.smarter.com/blogs/hair%20trimmed%20jacket%20and%20skirt.JPG" alt="Chris March from Project Runway Collection " height="500" width="400" /><br />
So the <strong>collar and trim of the jacket is lined with human hair extensions.</strong>  At first I was a touch repulsed by the idea of human hair collars, but actually I think it was well designed and the idea of combing my jacket and flat ironing my coat kinda tickles me. <img src='http://blogs.smarter.com/beauty/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> I think its high time that <strong>some wit be interjected into the stuffy realm of high fashion!</strong></p>
<p><img src="http://images.smarter.com/blogs/human%20hair%20skirt.JPG" alt="Chris March from Project Runway Collection " height="500" width="400" /></p>
<p>I actually thought this <strong>dress was pretty.</strong> The <a href="http://www.smarter.com/hair-extensions/pl--ch-39--ca-449.html" title="Hair Extensions - Hair Care Products " target="_blank">hair extensions</a> skirt looks nice and silky. More like fine mohair, one would never guess it was made of human hair. Also, I would have a field day at a party wearing this skirt and creating tall tales of how I was able to attain the scalps of hundreds of raven haired women!</p>
<p>If you would like to experiment with hair extensions in your apparel <a href="http://www.smarter.com/hair-extensions/pl--ch-39--ca-449.html" title="Hair Extensions - Hair Care Products " target="_blank">click here</a>, or any of the &#8220;hair extension&#8221; links in the post.</p>
<p>So that&#8217;s my opinion, what&#8217;s yours?</p>
<p><strong>Hair Scare? or  Hair Dare? </strong></p>
