Globes Without Gowns: Brad talks about his new friendship with Taylor, the desk situation, and the stress of award shows!

Hi everyone.

It's been a year since you last saw us and a lot has happened, and a lot is still the same. I have been promoted from Rachel's Assistant to Associate and I have settled into my position very well. The biggest change has been my relationship with Taylor. After the fight we had in the last episode of season one, we both made an effort to try to work as a team and to communicate more effectively with each other. Things are great ... for the moment. We still have our days, but for the most part we are getting along really well as you can see from tonight's episode.

We are now working in a new studio space, which is incredible. I do miss working out of Rachel's house, but it is nice to have a space that is actually equipped to do fittings (and I also wanted to leave all those bad memories behind).

This brings me to the desk situation. Now, I know that we come across as "bratty" in this instance, but you have to understand that we work in this space every day and have established certain routines that work for us. Neither of us wanted desks - we like the glass table. Taylor has her spot and I have mine. We are creatures of habit, but more importantly, having the desks upstairs is a pain because everything that we need access to is downstairs. We spend the majority of the morning returning and tracking down samples, so to be upstairs means running up and down the stairs every time a request comes in, which happens a lot. We thought it would be funny to set up the desks like an office, not to disrespect Rachel, but to make her laugh about the situation. Well, it didn't make her laugh, but we did get to keep our spot downstairs. We just make sure it is tidy at all times.

There are lots of other important things that you need to focus on, e.g. award shows, fashion week, Rachel's visions, and most of all Brad. Be strong. Life is a test, hopefully you pass each one. By the way, the boyfriend is fabulous.

You all are great and I'm glad to see you and Taylor getting along so much better this season. Of course Rachel is always fab. Good luck to all of you, as you are so much fun and love watching the world of fashion.

LOVE the show, and LOVE LOVE LOVE your style Brad. You really see everything through a totally unique, autonomous lens don't you? I agree with the other comment on here that you should try to branch off into styling men as well. You would do quite well. I always think I'm so much more reserved when it comes to fashion, until I watch this show and find myself gasping and ooohh-ing and aaahh-ing at the things you guys come up with.

Why must you have boyfriend already? You're so talented and so damn cute :) It's just not fair. Rock on Brad and the rest of TRZP!

Rachel was totally off about the need to tighten the tush running up and down those death-trap stairs. Ahem, it is already lovely. BTW, have you considered styling men? You've got a classic style but with a fun edge. I can see you styling some of the big male movie stars like Ben Affleck, Leonardo, etc. Well that is about it for now. Keep up the good work!

I love your style and your attitude above anything else.
It's fantastic that you were promoted and I really enjoy watching you do more on the show. Can't wait to see more of your styling and comments this season.

all the best!

Last season you consistently missed the little details and that drove Taylor and Rachel crazy. I think they have collectively trained you - as women always train their men - to be more attentive to the details both in the workplace and in life. You seem to be paying attention!
