Bachelorette Week 6 Recap

Next stop on Des’ journey…Barcelona, Spain!

Before I even get into this episode, let me say how gorgeous those beaches look…WOW! I am adding Barcelona to my must visit list.

Desiree wears a sold-out Juliette Jake Sweater as she strolls through Barcelona. I found some similar sweaters from Urban Outfitters including one from BB Dakota ($99) and BDG ($59):

Right off the bat Michael brings up the tension between James and the group. At this point I wish he would just give it a rest, I cannot stand him, he is so annoying. He has decided that someone is going to have to tell Desiree about the secret conversation James had about possibly becoming the next Bachelor.

Chris Harrison welcomes them to Barcelona and tells us that there will be one group date and two individual dates. There won’t be a cocktail party this week so the guys need to make sure to maximize their time with Desiree.

Drew gets the first individual date card which reads: “Drew, let’s build a foundation for love. Desiree.”

Drew and Desiree get to explore Barcelona on their date. During the date Drew really opens up to Desiree and tells her things (on national television) that he’s never told anyone else. Does anyone else find that strange? Drew tells Des that his father is a recovering alchoholic and that he’s really turned his life around now. Also, that he has cancer, but he hasn’t let that stop him. He seems to stay really positive and Desiree likes him.

During the date, Desiree wears a Leather Scuba Jacket by Vince ($995), Ava Earrings by Brooklyn Designs ($49), Avalon Crescent Necklace from Stella & Dot ($39) and the Barcelona Delight ring by Kiki Designs ($98):

While I couldn’t find her light blue scarf, I did find a similar one from David & Young ($18) in a variety of colors:

For the evening portion of the date, Desiree and Drew stroll through the city to their dinner. Des wears the L.A.M.B. CIA Pumps ($89.99). They are only available in a few sizes, but you can still search for your size on eBay.

They have a great dinner and you can really tell that this is where Drew falls in love with Desiree. He takes her outside, shoves her up against the wall and they have a pretty hot and heavy kiss. Wow…who knew Drew had it in him? I think up until this point Desiree liked Drew, but the chemistry wasn’t totally there. This kiss made her see him in a different light.When she makes out with Drew you can see the Robyn Rhodes Anut ring ($76) that she is wearing:

Back at the hotel, the group date card arrives for Brooks, Chris, Kasey, Michael, James and Juan Pablo. It says “Looooooooooove. Desiree.” Inside the “O’s” are a bunch of little soccer balls, which Juan Pablo was very excited about.

After Drew secures his rose, he decides to tell Desiree about James’ secret conversation. She was really surprised to hear this about James.

It’s time for the group soccer date, and Desiree decides to give James the benefit of the doubt for today. She wears the Ruched Half-Zip Jacket from Victoria’s Secret in Green Flash (on sale for $29.99) she wore the neon pink one on the dodgeball date in week 3:

The boys have to play a professional women’s soccer team as part of the date. Who knew these guys were such trash talkers. The girls kicked their butts, which wasn’t too surprising. During the evening portion of the date Desiree wears the Lady Confuscia ring ($89) from Kiki Designs as seen in week 4:

Des gets to spend some one-on-one time with Chris and she wrote him a poem. She also has some nice one-on-one time with Brooks and they seem really natural together. The rest of the guys still have their panties in a bunch about James. Seriously, they sound like a bunch of gossipy girls. Enough already! Kasey decides to confront James, which isn’t really his place. It’s for Desiree to decide what she wants to do. Ugh…fast forward please.

Kasey forces Desiree to confront this situation with James head on. They end up screwing themselves as Desiree decides not to hand out the rose and kicks all of them out so she can talk to James. They are certain that she is going to send him home. I think he did an okay job of digging himself out of the hole. If I were her I would have gotten rid of Kasey or Michael over James. She ultimately decides to sleep on it for the night. I loved the look on all of their faces when James strolled back into the hotel, ha!

Since Zak wasn’t chosen for the group date, we know that he has the next one-on-one date with Desiree. As she prepares for the date she wears a cute coral leather jacket. I found a similar leather jacket from Jessica Simpson ($59.96). She also wears the On the Mark Necklace from Stella & Dot ($59) and the Jasper necklace from Kiki Designs ($149):

Desiree decides that she will take Zak on an artistic date. She takes him to an art class and he was a really good sport. They seemed to have a great time with a lot of laughs. Then in comes a nude male model for them to draw. Again, Zak was a great sport. He decides to come in and pose for her in his underwear, which wasn’t too hard on the eyes.

For the evening portion of the date they get to visit a winery and explore the cave below. Desiree wears the sold out BCBGMaxAzria Guy Stripe Tuxedo Jacket ($119). I found one on eBay, so keep checking and hopefully someone will sell your size soon.

Unfortunately, I think Des gave him the kiss of death when she said they had a great friendship that was growing into a romance. We will see what develops, but it doesn’t sound like she is as into him as some of the other guys. She ultimately gives him the rose and he confesses to us that he is completely in love with her. He tells her that she means everything to him.

Fast forward through Drew and James being total girls, blah, blah, blah…

Desiree pays the guys a visit at their hotel and asks to speak to James outside. She wears the Seychelles Chandeliers from Stella & Dot ($44):

The guys get all excited that James will get sent home, but he is really sincere towards Desiree. At this point I think that she should focus on her relationships and not all of this drama. She seems to do that and really starts to warm up to James again. He goes back to the hotel which really gets the remaining guys riled up. That was the funniest part of the whole episode.

During the rose ceremony she sends Kasey, Juan Pablo and James home. The men are finally vindicated so now they will hopefully stop talking about James. I still don’t know why she is keeping Michael – I can’t stand him. Desiree wore the Diane von Furstenberg Lace Zarita Dress ($325):
