© Deborah J. Nelson/Satin Stitches Ltd. I tuned it for the finals, wondering what Brooke was going to wear this week, and was under-whelmed to see that she was wearing a long gown made out of silver squiggled, mini-sequins on white fabric. This fabric was a great performance fabric, but not really a refined, glamorous [...]

© Deborah J. Nelson/Satin Stitches Ltd. I just have to say that I LOVE Kenny Mayne, Len Goodman, and Jerry Rice in their ridiculous adventures at “Dance Center”! Their silly skits are so off-the-wall-I laugh every time! I love the getups that they wear, and the ‘interesting’ (referring to the ‘Minnesota-talk’ – as in – [...]

Monday’s dress was [...]

And Monday night, our local television station pushed Dancing With the Stars until 1:05 in the morning, so we could enjoy our Minnesota Vikings lose miserably to the New York Jets. Hmm. So, I stayed up late for the [...]

© Deborah J. Nelson/Satin Stitches Ltd. It was Story Night, this week on Dancing With The Stars. The real story was The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly, last night. Thankfully mostly GOOD, some BAD, and not much UGLY. I LOVED several costumes and I HATED some. And of course there were some that were [...]

© Deborah J. Nelson/Satin Stitches Ltd. Brooke opened the show in either a black or dark midnight navy gown. Yes, it showed off her front-and-center attributes, but was classy, sophisticated, yet young and fun. For the elimination show, she wore another tasteful gown of a gunmetal or dusty orchid color. It is sometimes difficult to [...]
