Rachel, Rachel, Rachel.....what a hot mess you created by not being the boss  
Sorry - I agree with Brad, it was a set-up for failure. Taylor didn't want to come out and tell Brad what to do and now she can play the martyr
The more I look at Rachel, the scarier she is  She gets an "A" plus for styling herself not look hideous. Can a girlfriend help a husband out? Style the poor man for the event.
How many items of jewelry can one person have

A strong business woman needs to be able to be an authority figure with her employees or they do not respect her. That really was a head game she played with leaving it up to Taylor and Brad to figure out who was going to France and who was not. I felt bad for Taylor not choosing to go, she really should have been the one to go.
That was nice that Rachel decided to finally part with some of her jewelry for a good cause.
I crack up though at how Rachel doesn't ever change her expression no matter if she is really upset, sick, or in pain, she is so controlled.

I know eh? She has one facial expression-one.
Her sister is pretty and their mom is/was gorgeous.
Rachel-she's an awful business person. How could she not know there were clients needing things prior to planning the Paris trip. If they came up suddenly why didn't she just say no???
I think Taylor gave the trip up to Brad because she is going to quit.
I think all of them don't know what real work entails. I get sick of hearing how stressful their work is. Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze......................I'll go pick out clothes,jewelry,shoes,etc for celebrities with more $$$$ than sense. While Rachel,Brad,Taylor and people like them go flip burgers.
Also-what was with Rachel's doctor? I mean for real--hellllllllllo--she needed to educate Rachel on the fact that not eating and not eating properly causes serious health issues. Medical class 101

The reason Rachel did not say that Taylor needed to go to Paris, is because she does not like Taylor too much. She would have rather Brad went, that is why she did not make a decion. I like it that Brad did not bow to Taylor.
I love this show, and find it to be amusing that people spend so much time obsessing over what color of shoes to wear with what dress. That it is a career for these people makes it even more amazing to me. I would be horrible at this job, I just grab anything, whatever.

I spend most of my time laughing my azz off while watching these fake azz people. They are so out of touch with reality. Rachel's voice does set my nerves on end though. If any of these people who get so freakin stressed out to the point of almost having a heart attack over fashion ever had to do an honest days work they would kill themselves.

LOL!!! I love all the comments on the show's "stress levels"  They are out of touch with reality - and that's why I watch. It's like a train wreck and you can't advert your eyes
Taylor should have gone to Paris period. (do you add a period after period  ) I know that Brad is more fun - but Taylor had seniority and was really looking forward to it. Besides, the drama that is about to come down the pipe could have been avoided.
I would hate their job of moving clothes from one rack to another rack and then shipping everything back  I would have taken the tape dispenser and hung someone to the walls by now and told them to shut up  Yes - RZ's voice is starting to grate on my nerves. How much more clothes can any one person purchase

I gotta say I think RZ is the worst manager of people I've ever encountered and I've had some bad ones! She just doesn't know how to delegate, she gives bad information or NO information at all, she expects people to do a job without any training and then blames them when things go wrong and they get upset or frustrated. Right from the get-go she should've sat down with Taylor and Brad and very specifically told each one what their job was and what tasks they were assigned. I'm not surprised Taylor is fed up and I won't be surprised if both of them quit before the next series starts shooting. This show is NOT making RZ look good.

In the last few episodes that I have seen, it appears that Taylor is on oxy or something. Heavy, slow, almost slurred speech at certain times. Maybe she will get her own show- "they want me to go to rehab and I said Zoe, Zoe, Zoe."
These shows are like candy corn for me. Doesn't taste that great, but I can't stay away from it.
Rachel does look mid-40s, even when she is looking good. I like the way she described the collections during fashion week. She is good at what she does, IMO, and seems to love her work.
She so kisses up to folks- makes politicians look like amateurs. And I have to ask- what is up with complimenting someone's work and saying "I'd die for you"? Is it going to be the next big saying?
I can't figure Rachel's husband out. He seems like such a nice guy and she is so superficial and self-centered. Maybe he has dominant mommy issues.
What do you all think is up with her medical problems?

I think she needs a nutritionist. I refuse to say she has an eating disorder--I won't go that route because I've never seen her eat nor seen her not eat.
I just think she's a bit too thin and some of her symptoms seemed like they could be handled with the proper nutrition,vitamins, proteins,etc
I don't know if they didn't show everything her doctor said or if that was even a real doctor they showed because (A) I don't think a real doctor should ever allow a camera in their office and (B) I think it is med school 101 to ask about a patient's eating habits before moving on to something as abstract as Vertigo.

This article from Aug 2009 says she is 37, I thought she was older.
For Rachel Zoe, fashion is much more than a business - USATODAY.com
