Revenge wears prada: The devil wears returns


Nope, this isn't some false advertisement or some wish-upon-a-star, but in fact news!

The juicy(couture) mouth-watering and entertaining novel-then-movie had our hearts and laughter struck back in 2006, and thankfully our enjoyment continues!

Bestselling Author; Laura Weisburger has some tantalizing plans for this 360 page babe of a book and those look into a sequel. And by tantalizing, I mean we'll have to wait one more year! This is in fact the worst for me as I am VERY impatient...waiting for the hunger games trilogy to come out as a movie was barely survivable and I do not know how I will get over this major elevator ride either.

Enough of my life crisis, I am relieved to see Laura has not left us astray.

"Revenge Wears Prada picks up eight years after Andy parted ways with Miranda on bad terms. Andy is now editing The Plunge, the hottest bridal magazine around, alongside Emily, her one-time Runway nemesis turned current BFF. While Andy is planning her own wedding to Max, a handsome media scion, she remains haunted by her impeccably heeled former boss — and the magazine world being as small as it is, it’s only a matter of time before she hears the dreaded syllables “Ahn-dre-ah!” again."    -Entertainment Weekly

Well I need to know MORE! And if you know me personally, you'll realize I cant sleep at night without knowing the full story. So I guess, Ill have to add 365 more sleepless nights until I get hands on this crown jewel...

Reading the summary leaves a bittersweet taste in my mouth though, for the following reasons:
  • -Thank GOD she left her other boyfriend, he was one of the least supportive creature to ever walk on this earth along with her friends.
  • -Okay I thought she wanted to be a serious writer?? And  didn't she end up in that Newspaper as a journalist??? How did she end up in a bridal magazine?!
  • -It would have been more dazzling if Revenge wears Prada could have changed to Revenge wears Rodarte, or Vengeance wears Versace.
Regardless, I'm super stoked for the arrival, and fingers crossed it's a big success, because I'd LOVE to see another big screen adaption!

What are your thoughts on this news? Do you think Hollywood is plunging this book or continuing its success? Would love to read your comments!


I'd like to end this off by saying...

  2. I find it completely dreadful and I hope neither Anna Hathaway nor Meryl Streep agree to join this project. The Devil Wears Prada was an inspiring project that showed the dedication and the time that is put into a fashion magazine (adorned with a happy ending and humorous quotes and it was just perfect. I am tired of Hollywood wanting to explode beautiful stories just for the gold. A sequel would be a disaster and I wouldn't want to see it.

  3. @Nikhol sure girl, just grab a pillow and we can be on our way ;)

    @Jennifer I understand your perspective and agree with you on some terms. It's kinda relatable to Mean Girls, one of, -if not- the BEST movie of our time. Sadly, people decided to exploit it in a sad attempt to milk the fame with mean girls 2. Which, ended up a complete failure...and was SO not fetch!

    I fear this will happen with this series, I cross my fingers everything is a success, and hopefully it doesn't die off painfully.
