As our father would tell us right before our softball games, go hard or go home. And last night, all three finalists -- Kenley, Korto, and Leanne -- stepped up their game and left everything on the Bryant Park runway. Our girl Kenley, as usual, didn't disappoint with her bad attitude and otherwise rude comments. She was especially nasty last night, telling the judging panel when he asked why she, well, straight up jacked the easily recognizable designs of Alexander McQueen and Balenciaga and pretended as if she was their original brain child: "Well, maybe I need to do some research." No, duh.

Not surprisingly, the judges sent her home packing (and crying) first. Once it was down to just Korto and Leanne, we knew this contest was over. Leanne -- the one with the timid personality, greasy hair, and charming designs -- was the champion this season. Yay! Her immaculately tailored collection of folded (har!) pastel dresses, jackets, tops, and skirts made everyone smile in the front row.

In our gallery, swoon over our favorite pieces from Leanne's oh so lovely spring line. Yes, people. We think a star has been born!

Guess what? Tomorrow night is the finale of the fifth season of Project Runway! Eek! For the first time in the show's history, all three finalists are women. Girl power! If we had to guess who was going to take home the grand prize, our finger points towards Leanne. Her designs, for the most part, have been the best executed and her ultra feminine aesthetic is bound to attract many a fashionista, which is great when you're trying to build a brand and attract buyers.

We think everyone can unanimously agree that last week's premiere episode of the fifth season of Project Runway was a tad bit on the boring side. We're not sure if it was because of the fact that the challenge had been done before (and better) or because the contestants didn't seem that interesting, but it took everything within us not to turn the channel after the first ten minutes.

However, we've never been known to quit something we've only recently just started. So we're hoping tonight's episode of Project Runway will be exponentially greater than last week's. And we have a strange feeling (wink) it just might.

Eco-friendly cheerleader, Natalie Portman, will be guest judging tonight's episode. Cool, right? We imagine the contestants will have to incorporate Natalie's vegan shoes into their looks. Anyways, as we all wait in suspense, check out this clip of a preview of tonight's episode. Tim Gunn's "Holla at ya boy" is priceless.
