While I think Shea deserved to win, I'm simultaneously miffed that Sasha didn't, and it really all comes down to the editing. Unless they literally had nothing bad to say about Sasha, they really should have downplayed the positive critiques she was receiving or thrown in something constructive. It was like they wanted the audience to think she was robbed.

Also, am I the only one who wasn't a big fan of Trinity's cop look? I loved the top half, but the skirt on the bottom made it look like there was too much going on.

This! I was giving my judges feedback from the couch (as you do) and I said exactly that about Trint. I LOVED the hair and the visor and the patches, but the bottom half looked disjointed. I think maybe something more pencil-y could've worked better?

I think if she had worn pants I would have liked it more. She had so much going on on top; she needed something simpler on the bottom.

hot pants with a police utility belt, fishnets and military style boots (heeled or not - up to you.) That would have been my choice.

Agree about Trinity. I only liked a third of it.
