Side-eye Erin

Have I mentioned how much I am loving Erin on The City? Allegedly the youngest Director of PR for Elle magazine ever, Erin Kaplan seems to be the only person on the cast who's ever had to work for a living and act professionally in an office environment.

The poor thing has been given the task of filming scenes with the formerly interesting, now increasingly bonkers Olivia Palermo, who routinely walks out on conversations, misses appointments and otherwise undermines the efforts of those around her. In so doing, Erin appears to have absolutely no control of her facial expressions, which include variations on enraged, puzzled, flummoxed, vindicated and shocked.

Even when Erin purposefully brings Olivia down a notch or two, you root for her, because she seems to be the only one with any sense on the show. Except for Kelly Cutrone, that is.

Side eye, mouth open, furrow brow, frown. Love it. All of it.
