Mistresses “Odd Couples” Recap

This week on Mistresses, Joss (Jess Macallan) makes a new friend in Calista (Jennifer Esposito) and April (Rachelle Aytes) has to deal with the fallout from Paul’s scandal.

April finds out that she has to pay the insurance company back for Paul’s death benefit so she needs a lawyer to help fight the case. As Savi is out of the country and Dom is unavailable, Toni (Rebeka Montoya) fills in. She wore a blue sheath dress. I found this Nine West Cap-Sleeve Ruched Sheath ($49.98) to recreate the look:

Karen (Yunjin Kim) goes through her donation procedure but doesn’t realize how much energy it will take out out of her. She is struggling the next day, but her doctor, and Vivian’s husband Alec (Ed Quinn) makes a house call to take care of her. Karen feels better the next day and heads off to work in a sold out sleeveless H&M dress. This Adrianna Papell Floral and Line Printed Pleated Sheath Dress ($140) is similar:

April is dealing with roommate issues now that Mark (Rob Mayes) is living with her. They seem to work their problems out, except for having to pay back the insurance company. Unfortunately, none of this helps her with Lucy (Corinne Massiah) who is entering the teenage angst phase a little early. April wore the Joie Cantoria Blouse ($195). This Adrianna Papell Floral-Print Crossover Front Hi-Low Top ($99) is similar:

Joss experiences a roller coaster of emotions this episode, with a Calista meltdown and suspicions of Harry (Brett Tucker) showing interest in someone else. That seems to make her more interested because at the end of the episode she pays him a booty call visit wearing the sold out JCrew Foil Striped Tank Top. This Gold Trim Khaki Vest Trim ($35) is similar:

If you missed it, you can still watch it on iTunes.

Mistresses “I’ll Be Watching You” Recap

As we kick off this episode Karen (Yunjin Kim) is learning all of the benefits of living with Joss (Jess Macallan) including her lack of cleanliness. Karen is wearing the Elie Tahari Isabella Dress ($199.99). This Marc New York by Andrew Marc Floral Printed Shift Dress ($59) is similar:

Joss meets our new mistress Calista Raines (Jennifer Esposito) when she steals Joss’ parking spot. Joss wore the Dad’s Shirt by Lacausa ($110). This We The Free Dreamer Tank ($49.95) is similar:

April (Rochelle Aytes) is having a fun time adjusting to Marc (Rob Mayes) and Scotty’s lifestyle. She unfairly judges him and has to go to his trailer to apologize and offer her help. She wore the Free People Raw Linen Drapey Jacket ($82.99):

All throughout the episode Karen keeps getting stood up, first by April then by Joss, so she decides to spend some time with Vivian (Sonja Bennett) during her treatments. Karen wore the sold out Alejandra Snakeskin Print Split Back Silk Blouse by Elie Tahari. This Elie Tahari Kaylee Printed Zip-Front Blouse ($92.26):

Joss teams up with our new mistress Calista to try and catch her husband in the act. Joss doesn’t end up getting the picture because she thought Savi was calling her. Calista tries to help her get past this and learn to let go and live without Savi. Joss is having a hard time with everything especially since she isn’t with Harry (Brett Tucker) at the moment. Joss wore the La Lune Foiled Muscle Tee ($29) while talking on the phone to Harry.

April finally decides to let Scotty and Mark move in with her and Lucy (Corinne Massiah) in hopes that Lucy will finally come around. Everyone is excited, but it doesn’t get Lucy to warm up to her at all.

April and Joss meet Karen for church and I can’t believe Joss tries to eat fried chicken in church!

We end the episode with Calista introducing herself to Harry in sort of questionable way…not sure what she is doing here.

Episode two with no Savi and I think so far so good. What did you think so far?

If you missed it, you can still watch it on iTunes or Hulu.
