Charleston Visit ~ Bravo Stops Charleston Visit ~ Bravo Stops
Southern Charm

I visited Charleston this weekend and visited Sewing Down South, Republic, and NICO. I didn’t see anyone from the Bravoverse but it was still so cool to see these places!

SDS - I did not run into Craig, but the store was PACKED with bachelorette parties exploring. It’s so cute in there and they had great merch!

Republic - We went during the day and it was so much fun! Definitely Instagram worthy. I imagined it to be much larger but it is so trendy and the drinks are tasty. This is essentially across the street from SDS!

NICO - The oysters were tasty and the environment was chic. It’s gorgeous - especially outside patio!

I wish I had time to make more stops!













Jax was transparent with Brittany (don't come for me!) Jax was transparent with Brittany (don't come for me!)
Vanderpump Rules

Jax is a piece of shit, always has been always will be. First and foremost that's a fact!

However, and I don't doubt he was an ultra love-bomber and we all know in times of struggle he just told people what they wanted to hear, but from the day she drove out from Kentucky he said in multiple multiple ways that it was moving too fast, he was overwhelmed, and then showed a lot of destructive behavior because he didn't know how to cope.

Yes, he shouldn't have love bombed this woman in the first place, because clearly she thought he fully wanted this relationship and wanted her to move there for him, but almost immediately he started acting up and disrespecting her! And EVEN IF off camera he is showering her with all the love in the world, she still watched the damn show afterward and saw all the shit he said about her (flirting and telling Lala he wanted to F her and then openly lying about it knowing B would see it!) and he said from the jump that he felt rushed and needed space. And this is just from her first season on the show!!

Fast forward to his cheating with Faith...do we even hear or see him ASK for forgiveness from Brittany? Does he even express that he wants her to take him back? He always "feels bad" after these cheating scandals, but we literally never see him say "please don't leave me let's be together I love you and I'm sorry." Not that it didn't happen, but the Bravo-told story only shows him saying over and over and over that he isn't in a good place, he wants to be out of this situation, he doesn't know who he is or who he wants to be, he feels trapped and it's super clear to the audience he is completely melting down and incapable of being a good person for his girlfriend. But yet, the focus goes solely to a sad Brittany, and the angry mob of the Witches of WeHo, and certainly his bad behavior gets mildly overshadowed by the STUPID MEN supporting him through his self made tragedy.

FINALLY, at the end of season 6, hough he goes about it all wrong, he finally finds the words to tell Brittany he can't be the person she deserves, he has a true moment of vulnerability and truth, and breaks up with her in their bed after a whole summer of trying and failing to get this initial point across "I'm not a good person, I need to be alone and work on myself, you deserve better." and yet this is overshadowed by the very shitty fact that he had already had sexy with her that day (such a scumbag) and had been pretending he was growing and changing with the reiki and stuff, but in actuality he was growing and learning-about himself. Brittany, the friends and the audience are hoping he is working on himself to be better for Brittany, but in all we've learned in life is that you can't be happy with anyone if you're not happy with yourself.

He told Brittany, in a thousand different ways. He even cheated knowing she would find out because he'd rather be the same kind of dirtbag he's always been, then have to be vulnerable and emotional, and break up with her himself.

Again, please don't come for me ? I just think it should have been recognized more that IN ADDITION to being a piece of shit, he's also just a human who suffers from a lot of his own struggles and hasn't yet figured out how to combat that in a healthy manner.

All of these VPR women have had shitty partners, but I'd like to see some more accountability from the women on their choices to continue stand by these shit men after that show you who they are time and time and time again. (I'm aware of emotional abuse in relationships and all the horror stories of women who couldn't leave etc. We know this isn't the case with these women. Stassi is the prime example! She left her shit men almost immediately. Except Patrick but he was more of a douche than an actual emotional abuser.)




what if episodes came out during filming what if episodes came out during filming

these days, i no longer look forward to new seasons. there’s a ton of hype on social about things that allegedly are happening but it ends up being disappointing. why not give us the content right away? i think it’d lead to a lot less “trying to control the story line” by both cast and producers, and more organic, interesting stuff.

i am also curious as someone not in the industry - how hard would this be? like obviously there’s a ton of editing and interviews are driven by threads that they pick up during filming. wondering what else would be challenging.
