    Mary Portas again...

    I have to say I was in stitches watching the mobile phone episode, thanks to recently watching the sitcom Phoneshop - that "H" (and his brother!) would have fitted right into the Sutton branch! And I did let out a little squeak - OMG it's Fiona!!! - when she came on. Hubby was supremely...

    Refunds why so slow

    I had occasion to test QVC, The Jewellery Channel and Gems TV on refunds recently as I had returns going to all three on the same day (not on purpose!) - 4th January. They were posted by different methods so had variable delivery dates but the outcomes were as follows: QVC - five items posted...

    Uri is just plain weird

    Can't stand him, but I was accidentally sent one of his rings by the QVC numpty-elves when I ordered something else and I have to say it was a beautiful item, just rock crystal in gold but really nicely made.

    Leighton Denny TSV 3/2/11

    I don't have high hopes (CC says thank gawd for that lol) - I remember hearing Leighton say that EVERY set has to have a nude in it, and I hate them! I only really buy colours, so any accessories/treatments are of no interest either. The only downer is it's damn hard to find a Leighton colour...

    Rocks is Dead, Long Live Gems?

    Just dropped in to find out why that was myself! Had it on 'puter with sound down, so didn't hear any explanation why Rocks is now Gems...

    Nails Inc TSV - 24/11/10

    Mine arrived today and I'm actually very pleased with it. There are a couple of colours that just aren't me (the nude and the pink) and I can't tell the difference between the green and the Portland Place I already have :( But I reckon I'll just sell those three as all of the others are gorgeous...

    Nails Inc TSV - 24/11/10

    I think it's horrible! Take one expensive glossy nail polish, add matte topcoat, look now your manicure looks like you've taken a scrubbing brush to it without all that effort! I was intrigued about what this "special effect" was going to be - what a disappointment. I thought it might make it...

    Nails Inc TSV - 24/11/10

    I did it I'm afraid. Waited up till midnight too, sad cow! I admit there are a couple of colours I'm not sure about, but most of them are right up my street and I may be pleasantly surprised in the flesh as I was with my last Nails Inc tsv.

    Nails Inc TSV - 24/11/10

    Dammit, at that price with those colours (I love all but one), I need this TSV!

    Nails Inc TSV - 24/11/10

    Grr, I like the look of those! I so shouldn't... Depends on price I guess.

    Lily O'Brien anyone?

    Horrible chocs IMO - and I've seldom met a chocolate I didn't like! Give me Dairy Milk anyday! For nice chocs Thorntons are VERY reasonable, and Hotel Chocolat are sooo scrummy I don't mind the price!

    OPI TSV 21st October

    I think I'd have been suckered into this one if the finances were healthy - but they're not! So I took it as a good excuse to buy two or three individual colours I've been fancying from eBay instead, that £12-£15 will be on ones I know I'll love. I've gone for the blue OPI from the Summer...

    Oooooooo sparkly!

    Wow meesh hun that's a beauty! Doesn't look much static but the video clearly shows why these diamonds stole your heart! Actually, diamonds are IMO the hardest stones to photograph, they thrive on movement I think. Congrats on another fab purchase, enjoy blinging in it!

    Lily O'Brien chocs...

    Someone bought me a box of these a couple of years ago and I'm afraid I thought they tasted cheap and nasty - and believe me, I'm not picky about chocolate, generally I love ALL of it!

    Apatite frenzy - and some other bits...

    OK, moment of truth, here's the biggie! It all started when Rocks TV failed to deliver a couple of apatite rings I wanted as a birthday present. I stalked off to look for alternatives, remembered one of my favourite apatite rings was from tjc, took a look at their website on the offchance...

    A few little blinglets!

    I've been very lazy about posting my purchases in recent months (I say lazy, more like busy and exhausted...), but I 've been prodded by a certain Belle so here are my very few Rocks TV purchases: Sweet little grey/blue pearl bracelet, not stretch style. I like the delicate colour and it was...

    My last clicks pearls

    I promised the lovely Falguni that I'd post up my bling purchases for the last few months, part one is QVC. It's also the easy option, as I've only had one item! This set of 2 bracelets with garnet chips caught my eye while in a weak moment - I'd had a red/white pearl colour scheme in my head...

    frank Usher

    I was really tempted by one of the necklaces, even though I don't usually wear costume jewellery. But the reviews on the website said it was really badly made, with visible glue and stones falling off so I put my CC away again!

    67 grand spare?

    I was gobsmacked when I saw the ad last night, I don't think I could ever in my life justify spending so much on a gemstone - even a euromillions win wouldn't convince me! I'd feel far too guilty about such a frivolous waste of money when there are charities out there who would benefit so much...

    Gold Tarnishing

    I usually buy mine at Past Times if you have one close. Dunno about the retarnishing thing though.
