Darling David Chum, of Selahdor, is in the mix and we will definitely be cheering him on. We hope all of our Smashing Darling fans will too! GO watch his casting video, house visit, and closet tour here, and to our Twitter friends: Tweet #PR9David to vote for David as your Fan Favorite. Support a Darling! Go back to this past December and read our interview with him, right here. The new season of the show kicks off July 28th at 9PM/8C – congratulations to all the designers who made the cut!

For the past six months Darling Angela Johnson has been busy coordinating the opener for Scottsdale Fashion Week. 120 designers (plus 120 models, and then of course all of the stylists) are involved in tonight’s kickoff event, Community Night, featuring local fashion and presented by FIDM. Besides coordinating tonight’s show, she’ll also be showing her own new collection, Haute For Teacher, Friday night. Of course we would love to be there to see the show, but really we would rather be her two right-hand-darlings, helping with whatever she needs to make sure the evening is a success…it’s way more fun to be behind-the-scenes. Angela, consider us there in spirit! Read more about Angela in Arizona Foothills Magazine, and take a second to vote for her while you are there.
