Shopping channel snark

Just checked Lisa R’s FB page to see what she’s up to. She said she’s in Charleston SC, visiting her sisters.

She posted her 2011 YouTube video where she sang “Baby It’s Cold Outside” with [former QVC host] Dave King. I had never watched the video before, and was surprised to see that she sang quite well. She looked nicer then too – she had a normal, flattering hair style, a short pony tail. Better shoes too. In 2011, six-inch platform heels had not come into style yet; she was wearing classic black pumps with heels of about 3 inches. But I did see traces of today’s Lisa: I swear I saw her notorious dark lip liner in one of the closeups.

I love irony.

The migration to this forum was sparked in part by heavy-handed rulings elsewhere forbidding discussion of former hosts.

But now that I’m here? I’ve already read more about her than I ever needed to in this lifetime, and I just don’t give a shit about what Lisa Robertson’s doing now, where she’s living, or what she did in the past.

OTOH I like that it’s OK here for people to discuss her all they want.

Carry on.

This isn’t at all snarky, but it’s the Holiday season so I think I should get a pass. :slight_smile:

I sincerely hope all of you nice folks have a happy, joyous, healthy, warm and blessed Christmas.

You as well, stillownedbysetters

I really can’t wait for it to be over. :frowning:

No self tanner, normal clothes, jewelry and hair, just a few years ago! What happened? She really became weird.

Me too.

Happy Holidays

To everyone going through tough times I hope 2015 treats us all a lot better.

Which host closed out the Q’s live programming for the day?

The elf of course with her offspring

Here in Canada, the Taya white clay and dragons blood snake oil, ahem ‘products’ are heavily promoted. White clay is ‘clinically proven to volumize’ your hair. The before and after pix are hilarious. On the left a mousy blonde, and on the right, the same mouse with a blond tornado on her head.

My hubby says he’d be ashamed to be caught hawking this stuff. Amen, brother.

Those B&A photos are so stupid. My hair looks like the "before’ when I’ve just blown it dry. Then it looks like the “after” when I’ve curled it. What nitwit believes this stuff?

And she also posted a picture of herself with that obscenely large teddy bear. If you zoom in on the photo, you can see she is exceptionally heavy handed with the lip liner, and she is looking every bit her 49 years.

Probably the same people that believe the B&A pictures for shapewear. (IMO, that’s a euphemism for girdles.) In the before picture, the model stands slumped over. That will make your stomach puff out. In the after picture she’ll stand up straight and the tummy looks flat. The posture makes more of a difference than the shapewear.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everybody here! Maybe we can have a B&A for 2014 and 2015, and everything will be better in 2015.

Just a heads up for you shoe lovers. I was just on the Q site looking at Marc Fisher shoes (he has a show tomorrow). There is a really cute pair of ballet flats for $24.15. They were part of the FFANY sale, and are now on clearance.

Shape wear is so uncomfortable! As a curvy gal, I find it rolls down, creeps up, pinches and makes me miserable. Who buys this? Oh, wait, gals who don’t need it, right…

I quit buying shapewear. I’m not curvy, but have some ab and thigh flab. (Is that what they call “skinnyfat”? LOL.) I found that it was much more comfortable to just buy clothes in a bigger size than to struggle with shapewear.

Why does Susan use 7 foot tall models to show her pants? Every pair looks like they’re highwater pants. :rolleyes:

Dotty already getting so frantic she’s actually becoming breathless. “Idesigntoflatterawoman’sfigurethat’swhatI’mknownforwomenlovemyclothesIsawthisinParisandsaid"HeyIcandothis"lookhowfabulousKatialooksinitohmygodit’sgorgeouslovelovelove…” Sandra does not look amused by the hyper, out-of-control fool.

If you ask me, QVC’s “exclusive designer” needs to be put on meds.

In the minute I watched…a minute too long…Sandra actually sounded a bit terse, slightly raising her voice as she attempted to take control of the presentation. Of course, SG prattled on non-stop, oblivious.

Hee - I rather enjoy the thought of Sandra being tortured by Grater’s blathering. LOL

Well, it seems the always sweet and perky Clarks Amy isn’t always so sweet and perky. Somewhere in the middle of her usual patter, I suddenly heard:

This shoe is so light that if you get mad and throw it at somebody, it won’t hurt them…

Huh wha? LOL
