I seldom watch DF now, because of the self promotion and the dreaded Ipad. I can't believe that she was one of my favourites her first time around.
Me Too!
I saw (and heard) Debbie on a show earlier in the day when she alluded to her telling her personal stories and said she'd have to stop or she'd get told off... finished with a laugh. No doubt knowing perfectly well that she can do pretty much as she pleases.
I don't think she realises (or maybe just doesn't care) that what this constant self-promotion reveals is a monstrous ego, joined with an equally massive level of insecurity.
Debbie does QVC and herself a great disservice with the way she conducts herself nowadays, unfortunately. As long as she continues to pull in the sales, which I am sure she does, it will not change.
I must also add, that while on mute (as she always is these days) on the Join show - as well as every other show I've seen recently - Debbie looked simply dire. Of course it's going to be no-contest for most presenters next to Evie, but even so I don't think much thought went into the outfit. The white, peep-toe, wedges have been retired and replaced with a horrible pair of boots which are neither stylish nor flattering... I know that Debbie has very broad hands and feet, but surely something better is available to wear than either of her normal footwear choices? In both footware choices, they look like they are well looked-after, but still worn-to-death.
Mostly Debbie seems to have adopted those horrible Slim n Lift "jeans" style leggings and wears them regardless of the colour of the top she puts with them... and I know they say you can wear anything with jeans, but they don't look like jeans - they actually look like sheer blue tights... so she ends up looking like a pantomime lead male (always played by a female)... is that seriously the look she wants to project?
So not only does QVC turn a blind eye to her relentless self-promotion (and cronyism with her mates on social media always getting name-checks on air, and in some cases more off-air) but they allow her to put together outfits which make her look terrible, and the clothes unsaleable. Unless it's a secret challenge to assemble the most awful outfits from QVC's rails? Thing is, I'm pretty sure it's how Debbie dresses anyway...
To be constructive now: if it were down to me, I would get her into a nice fitted dress (she used to look much nicer when she didn't dress like she was lounging around at home), probably in a royal blue. Said dress would finish at the knee. I would put her in an enclosed, nude, heeled shoe. She would look both taller and slimmer, in my opinion, than in what we see here wearing show after show.
Sorry, I am finding Debbie particularly annoying at present... and it seems I'm not alone. Rant over.
