Hyacinth would of course buy the periwinkle coloured one to match her Royal Doulton with the hand painted periwinklesI was watching a Michele Hope outlet yesterday 'cause there was nothing else on and I could do with a bit of a laugh, when they were showing those awful "laces" in garish colours - I think Lola's already bought 3 of the buggers and she says she'll wear them as beach cover ups when she's on holiday. Anyway the BA/Kabler were going through how versatile they were, great with jeans, dressed up, dressed down, beach cover up etc etc. Now I know I probably shouldn't be putting ideas into their heads, but what a money spinner this would be "Lola, one of our lovely ladies over on Qurio, has bought three 'cause she said they'll be great as a cover up on the beach", or "Hyacinth has bought these nail polishes 'cause there's a colour for every occasion, and she's gonna be wearing the gold one when our CEO comes round to tea". Something like that would skyrocket the competition over there, not only that it would attract a lot more subscribers too!
I think they call it a floordrobe, piles of clothes and noi space to store them!These people who buy all those clothes must have enormous wardrobes. (Or a real problem)
Sheād not let me near her Royal Doulton, far too crack handedā¦.Iād be getting my tea in a beaker, like Elizabeth; whilst Hyacinth is busy refusing orders for the Chinese takeaway on her āwhite slimline telephoneā.Hyacinth would of course buy the periwinkle coloured one to match her Royal Doulton with the hand painted periwinkles
Maybe putting all last year's tat in the loft? Got to make way for the new things.Lolaās vanished I hope she has come to her senses.
.....and this is exactly why that forum is not the hub and community of friendship they try and tell us it is! Unless you're up and spending and showing off everything you've bought, they don't wanna know, and even if they did there's no way of conveying any sense of concern - Where's the community there?Lolaās vanished I hope she has come to her senses.
Iām beginning to think she has come across this forum as well ,it certainly made me think twice about ordering stuff off qvc just for the sake of it which I have done in the past it can be very addictive especially on easy pays but this forum is great itās straight to the point and makes you realise how you can get sucked in by the sales pitch,I still dab in Q now and then but will only order something I need or really want thank you to all the (lovely ladies)excuse the pun on this qurio forum for opening my eyes to this shopping channel and for the laughsMaybe she googled Qurio and came across this forum and recognised herself, although they rarely do, and either decided to go AWOL or has come to her senses and is busy packing up as many returns before the 30\60 mbg runs out
Good question! I really don't think I could tell you. I bought a couple of her shirts, a skirt and a couple of camis some years ago, I would've been in my late 30's/early 40's I would have guessed and I can't tell you what possessed me. Perhaps I thought they looked a bit "different". I remember the skirt. It consisted of a poo brown coloured polyester lining covered in a longer layer of patterned lace with all manner of garish coloured splodges of bright yellows, acid greens and purples. The cami/lace blouse I bought was ice cream green and went with absolutely nothing in my wardrobe, it even looked a bit iffy with a pair of plain blue jeans, and boy did it make me sweat buckets! The other item was a blouse with skinny sleeves and big flouncy cuffs. It was a splodgy design of pinks, purples, white and black...again very sweaty and the dangly sleeves got in the way of everything. I think at the time I was "in the zone" and believed all the $hit they told you in the demos.Hyacinth would of course buy the periwinkle coloured one to match her Royal Doulton with the hand painted periwinkles
Not keen on Michele Hopeless, looks dated on any age, lurid colours and no way is is stylish. Who is her demographic I wonder?
I think the same, it is very odd that she has stopped appearing, although I do hope she is not unwell.Maybe she googled Qurio and came across this forum and recognised herself, although they rarely do, and either decided to go AWOL or has come to her senses and is busy packing up as many returns before the 30\60 mbg runs out
I have bought a few things from Kim in the past and bar a couple of "mistakes" they've been absolutely lovely. I had two or three tube skirts with a small slit at the back so you could walk properly, I only culled those because they were heavily patterned and didn't fit in with my streamlined wardrobe. I still have two of her dresses and I love both of them. The other Kim dress I had was my absolute favourite, it was slimline shimmer plisse slash necked evening dress and it was stunning. It was a dark wine colour with a black shimmer. I reluctantly got rid of it when it started to wear thin, and I discovered a patch of the wine colour had rubbed off showing a blob of black - It wasn't obvious, but it was to me, so it had to go! I got many years of wear out of it. From what I can see, her offerings have gone right downhill, she's not in Michele Hope territory just yet, but she's getting there!Qurio, a sense of community, yeah, care in the community more like!
I can't say why but I once bought from Michele Hope's range. Again I too was in the zone and got carried away. Blddy awful cami and cardigan in chiffon (polyester of course). Put it on and it fit, so put it away for Christmas time, 2 years ago now. I wore it on New Year's day and it was sooo sweatty. I never wore it again. Reading this thread has remind me to get it out of the storage nox and get rid. Coming soon to a charity shop near me (laundered of course) LOL xx
