I like Matt Evers, he is not as fake as some of the hosts, he is low key, and listens to the vendors. He is calm and I can watch him without cringing or changing channels.
Men can show wigs and at least they are not wearing the woman’s wig in an unflattering color and proclaiming it so wonderful, get two!

Yes, I keep trying and having to send items back because they don’t fit. Or they smell terribly of chemicals used in processing the clothing. I even got a washed and used item from QVC recently. But that is on the customer!

I ordered the black Ponte pants with the silver stitching from Nina Leonard and boy did those look frumpy, like 70’s pants and the stitching was so uneven and poorly done. They didn’t fit anyway so they went back. I also ordered the knit jeans from Nina Leonard and again the smell but I kept them as they fit and were what I needed. Four washes later before wearing, they only smell a little bit. I am returning more than I keep so I have to just stop ordering. The styles on HSN are so familiar and similar to those on QVC. I wonder if the various designers use the same factories and just claim this is their original. I tried a Julianna outfit last fall and it was a winner so I tried some of her jeans this summer and they fit so tight I couldn’t stand it. And smelled terrible, too. One has to really examine the fit on the models before purchasing because you can tell if it fits them right or wrong. Then don’t order it, I guess. And are the hosts or vendors or models truly in the size they say they are wearing? Sometimes I question this plus how tight the clothing is on them.

I had a doctor appointment in the cancer building this week and got there early so I went to the gift shop. I saw all the wigs in the window. They were not as shiny looking as the wigs sold on HSN or QVC. The vendors promote the shiny look at a positive but I think it might look fake in reality.
The wigs in the gift shop looked more real, not highly shiny and may have been real hair. Similar hair cuts to what is shown on HSN and QVC. I used to work with a gal who wore very cheap wigs and they looked like plastic hair.
One thing with wigs besides getting it cut and styled to fit one’s face as Lisa said, is to pick a color that flatters one’s face. You will see the hosts and models being put in some of the blond colors and it is absolutely not flattering to their complexion. Matching skin color/tone to the wig color helps make them look natural or real.
Lastly, research where the natural hair comes from, who grows out their hair and sells it for money to feed their families.

I have no idea but please don’t spray too much because those of us that it gives us a headache really suffer when getting near to someone with too much scent on. Pick something light and just for yourself, applied very lightly. My favorite job banned perfume or cologne and fish at lunch and I started working there after this ban was initiated so I don’t know why but was glad.
Where I live the new thing is young men drenching themselves in cologne and you can smell them a mile away. It is not pleasant. If you have a plumber come, he is wearing a ton of scent. If you go into a store, the guy helping you is wearing a ton of scent. If two of the young men are together, you get a ton of competing scent.
Women were doing thing for a while but now the young men are looking to please, I guess.

I would go to Kmart to get her sweaters long ago. I loved her clothing, probably got her pants line, too. What I don’t like about this modern line of hers on HSN is the polyester fabric. All you say about her classiness, her feminine line of clothing, is correct. One looks polished and pulled together in her line but I just don’t wear polyester dresses or tops if I can help it.

Consumer Reports tested laundry sheets and found they just don’t work as well as regular detergent. You could try double rinsing. Are your clothes causing itching? I have a lot of allergies to perfumes or the petroleum based detergents which is just about anything in a regular grocery or big box store. And so laundry detergent in general, fabric softeners, non-bleach whiteners tend to make me itch. The heavy perfume on other people’s clothing from their detergent that I can smell walking by them gives me a headache. Laundry detergents are really full of yucky petroleum based chemicals and who wants to be emerged in that night and day?

I have found that Old Navy, Target, Kohls, and JC Penney, Dillards, Vermont Country Store, all have faster shipping than HSN which is slow. I have also shopped with Soft Surroundings and Coldwater Creek and they are slower also. What other clothing places are you ordering from that are faster because I get tired of waiting so long myself.

I doubt the complaints and comments on this forum will drive HSN out of business.

It is like the website got hacked. I also have two Access Denied notices on the left of my screen. I had to refresh the page on the website to get into the community.

I have never tried Joy’s leggings because I only wear cotton leggings, not full polyester leggings. I have not seen her make her leggings for winter with fleece. I do wear cotton and polyester fleece leggings from either Lands End or Old Navy (size up). I get cold ankles and feet and knees if I am not dressed warm when it is cold, even in the house.
Let us know what size you got and if it fits well, please. I was thinking of maybe trying Joy’s capri leggings but polyester will make you sweat to death where I live as it is hot hot here, and humid.

I agree on the low quality aspect but it has been getting worse and worse. My beef is the hosts and models tend to squeeze into a size or two too small. The jeans on the models often have those “wrinkles” across the thighs and knees which means too tight. I almost picked up a cotton MarlaWynn shirt for $19.95 and then I remembered how the last MW shirt I bought smelled terribly of chemicals. I look at the DG2 summer jeans and I stop myself because what if they smell that bad again.

And what is up with how awful the dark denim jeans always smell. I have bought several pairs, washed 5-6 times in detergent and laundry borax and they still have an odor. I tried the jeans from Kohls, no odor, and Coldwater Creek, no smell. I really like how the well fitting styles of DG2 fit my long rise but like others have said, one has to guess and try and then send back.

I personally love the fit of DG denim but I hate the smell of these pants. Every pair I own has been washed 5-6 times with laundry borax and detergent to get the smell down to not so bothersome (not gone). I still have one pair left. Had to give away the other two.
So I wonder if the colored denim that is not the blue denim smells as bad?

Today I was ordering from the phone app the Skinn Age Reset Advanced Night Cream and it kept say something like we are sorry there is an error with your order. I thought maybe it was sold out so I tried again and again. I came online to the website and say all these orders went through! Five orders of the cream. I tried to cancel it from the website but still got the we are sorry there is an error with your order.
Then I called HSN Customer Service and did the automated thing to cancel 4 of these orders. It worked that time.
