I’m posting recaps from Thanksgiving Week belatedly since I was out of town, with apologies to all the contestants whose episodes I missed!
Cris Pannullo
Cris had some time to shop for new clothes, but it looks like he is sticking with what worked for him so far! This is the 5th time he’s worn this maroon sweater (3x with this lavender-ish shirt, 2x with a white shirt.) I respect commitment to the brand but wouldn’t mind if he added one new sweater for variety.
David Stiasny
Dr. Dave gave me a preview of his outfit when he taped, and I wholeheartedly approved of his pink shirt, tie, and lapel pin. I always appreciate a colorful dress shirt!
He also talked in his anecdote about modeling “ugly Christmas sweaters” and I’d be remiss if I didn’t give my review of these.
First, he looks like Elijah Wood here. Second, I am 100% here for the kitsch factor, but I have to admit I object slightly to the juxtaposition of the craft-store-chic vest with the polo shirt and hat. I get that “regular guy doing regular things but lol he’s wearing a funny vest” was the intended aesthetic, but I feel like layering it over something solid-colored & long-sleeved could have improved the effect.
Poinsettias and Batman, name a more iconic duo.
Etienne Lepine
Beautiful rust color blouse and I LOVE this silhouette with the gathered empire waist (one of my favorite styles to wear!)
Ken Jennings
Ken looks nice in 3 different shades of blue!
