Style expert owns an empire of spas, salons and boutiques

Tim Gunn will "make it work" for the second season of his reality show with a new fashion accomplice by his side.

Fashion expert, personal stylist and salon/spa owner Gretta Monahan will join the "Project Runway" mentor for the upcoming season of Bravo's "Tim Gunn's Guide to Style." She replaces model Veronica Webb who aided Gunn in his freshman season.

"I've been a fan of Gretta's for awhile now -- she's on the edge of fashion with a fresh approach that resonates well with all types of women," says Gunn. "I'm thrilled to have her as my fashion accomplice."

In each episode, Gunn and Monahan will team up to help the self-proclaimed style-challenged make themselves over using Gunn's rules. Monahan will guide the women's choices on shopping challenges.

Monahan appears as a frequent "buddy" on "The Rachael Ray Show," has contributed to the "Today Show," "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" and "The View" and hosts the "Gretta's Got It" fashion segment on WHDH-TV in Boston.

Her style empire, Gretta Enterprises, comprises Grettacole Salon and Spas, the fashion boutique Gretta Luxe, Grettastyle Studio in New York City and G Spa.
