C Wonder was an affordable stylish clothing line started by Tory Burch’s ex-husband, Christopher. Xcel got it through bankruptcy and hired Christian Siriano as it’s creative director. It’s now basically a stylish affordable private label brand only for HSN. Perhaps, Christian is focusing his creative efforts his designer and couture lines and that is why they hired Ken Dowling as the line’s director and on air representative for C Wonder. Ken is very respected in the industry and I really enjoy his on air styling and restyling of the models in real time. He spruces them up and gives us ideas that the production stylists cannot.

I have noticed the line has been trending to bigger and more ornate. I prefer more delicate and understated, but there is always a market for bold jewelry, so perhaps they are trying to attract a different customer.

Love Kenya! Was so happy to see Winnetka, too!

Thank you, jmc1365. I did go ahead and order it. Fingers crossed!

Oh no! That’s terrible. It is kind of you to warn the rest of us. It should stop now that you have stopped using the products. I had an issue with Wen, completely clogged my follicles and I lost hair. It is scary and sad. I hope your hair recovers quickly from the damage. 🙏

Winnetka came up from Florida and Bobbie made sure to mention she came from Florida. I think most of the models on HSN and the Q do a nice job. Whether or not they move around is decided by the stage manager, not the models. Seems like a production issue, not a talent issue. Just sayin’.

If they wanted QVC to have the more traditional green/red holiday decor, they could have had HSN have something different, but tasteful. Think silver and gold, midnight blue, burgundy, crystals. Modern but glam (like Elton John showed from his home selling Slatkin candles) Law library chic, if that’s a thing?! 😉 Instead, it’s fuschia and pink with aqua curtains and cheap ivory laminate counters like it’s a tacky ’80’s fern bar. Makes me cringe.

I have in the past, purchased two different colors of this one (EFAN, I believe) and the fabric feel and sizing was so different between the two colors. One was soft, one felt like it had a coating on it. So much crazy lint in the dryer! I’ve pretty much given up on Amazon from China clothing, too many quality and size variations. If you’re going to spend $25-$50 for a warm sweatshirt, I would suggest Land’s End. Helpful American Midwest customer service, garment measurement and size chart accuracy, quality fabrics that wash up well. Just a thought….

I wasn’t able to see Lynn’s farewell show. I hope they did something nice for her. She spent her whole career at HSN, so it is probably so hard for her to leave. She will always be a favorite for me. Her shows years ago with Perlier and all the laughs with Skip! Her special rapport with Heidi Daus! Just this week, her Chaco Canyon and other jewelry shows reminded me of how professional and pleasant she is on air and how much I always enjoy watching the shows she hosts. I will definitely miss her presence on HSN. It would be nice if she ended up a product line rep. like some of the former Q hosts have done. I would welcome that, but hope she does well and is happy in whatever she does in the future. Thank you, Lynn!!!!

Beautiful sentiment. Thank you for your positivity.

Here’s to John Williams, Giorgio Moroder, Ennio M., Hans Z. Just to name a few. Film scores so enhance our enrichment and enjoyment! Thanks for posting about this today!

Absolutely, ennui. It is even more noticeable with lab rubies and sapphires. They look perfect, but even though, not fake, the color perfection and brilliance seem strange or sterile compared to Mother Nature’s gems. That said, I understand lab grown fans are considering how much more bang or bling they get for their budgets. Also, no need to certify “cruelty free” when lab grown.

Thanks for that gentle reminder, Sheba! We need reminders to be kind to ourselves and each other! Enjoy your evening!

Agreed, mssilver!

They were really fun to watch. I agree, jude645!
