Wow, what a busy and exciting year it’s been for us!  You inspired all of us in our Albuquerque design and production studio to create over 300 new designs to share with you on QVC this year. On top of that we participated in February’s New York Fashion Week and gathered for a fabulous girls’ weekend at the Gaylord Texan Resort, home to one of our beautiful CP galleries.

Two Hours of Fun: American West Style!

In Jewelry Talk, Hosts & Personalities, Carolyn Pollack

We’re so excited to be back on QVC just over a month after our last visit!  Have you noticed how American West style seems to be popping up all over the place right now?  During New York Fashion Week, we saw one top American designer pair the romance of Spanish style with bright Southwestern colors and top it off with the intricate Western style details that we love so much.  And equestrian influences are everywhere!  Fashion magazines have embraced this as a top trend for fall and winter, but our collectors have known all along that nothing beats the styles of the We...

Fall, the Season of Friendship!

Last Reply by q-girl 1348684704.07 | in Jewelry Talk, Hosts & Personalities, Carolyn Pollack

Fall has forever been my favorite season.  My Mom was always perplexed when I would tell her that.  After all, it meant Minnesota winter was right around the corner!  But to me, fall meant looking forward to seeing all of my friends at school, the beginning of tennis season, Friday night football games, bonfires, and of course, layers of rich warm colors of fall fashion!  As it turns out, fall still brings joy to me for so many of the same reasons. Friendship remains my number one fall celebration, and this 2012 fall season has already warmed my soul like a wool blanket wr... Continue Reading

That means you!   The spirit and style of the American woman never ceases to inspire me.  I love the freedom that we have to express ourselves through bold, individual style.  As I travel across this wonderful country of ours,   I love to soak in not only the natural beauty of the American landscape, but also the culture and traditions that inspire unique and diverse American lifestyles.   Growing up in Minnesota, I passionately embraced the preppy trend in the 80’s, while interning at Disney World,  I loved all things Mickey,  my move to...

Jill Bauer Claims I Bleed Red, White and Blue!

I’ll take that as a compliment!  I love this amazing country of ours, and look forward to celebrating all that is wonderful about America each July 4th!   As a matter of fact, this is one of the many things Bill and I have in common.  That’s why we chose to be married over the Fourth of July weekend.   Bill also likes the fact that this way he never forgets our anniversary!  Maybe if I keep doing my P90X work-outs I’ll be able to get back into this wedding dress for my 18th Anniversary!  What began as a wonderful celebration with our...

All I can say is “Wow”!

On Day 3 of our California experience we rise early and head toward Yosemite National Park.  Along the way we are treated to lush rolling hills, orchards, ranches and wind farms before settling in to Sonora.   Bill and I had never witnessed this part of California, and it just simply took our breath away!  As we entered the 760,000 acre majesty that is Yosemite National Park, we were speechless.  A visit to our treasured protected lands always has this effect on me. As I sit in wonder of the vast beauty, I am reminded of those who had the foresight and diligence before... Continue Reading

A Sterling Day in Napa Valley!

Last Reply by Cloud7 1305773525.167 | in Jewelry Talk, Hosts & Personalities, Carolyn Pollack

Hi Sisters, On Day 2 of our California trip, we headed up to the Calistoga area for a very special visit to the iconic Sterling Vineyards.   I had been told by many that Sterling is one of Napa Valley’s most beautiful wineries, and from the moment we drove into the tree lined entrance I was convinced.   As we glided over the treetops in the Vineyards’ aerial tram, we enjoyed breathtaking views of the valley.  Once we reached the top we were greeted with our first glass of wine and the gracious hospitality of Sterling’s spokeswoman Pip and Winemaker A...

Hi Sisters, Bill and I just returned from a fabulous trip to Northern California with our favorite QVC production crew!  I have so many wonderful memories to share, so I think I will start a little travel-blog, and post every other day with a special story from the road.  Of course, there will be videos for you to check out on You Tube and Facebook too. Day 1- Napa Valley:  We spent a picture perfect day cycling through the vineyards with Brad from Napa Valley Bike Tours.  He reminded us that we would not be drinking wine, but tasting wine, a very important distinction ...

Love is in the Air!

Cheers from London, Sisters! No, I am not crashing the wedding, I will actually be on QVC UK, and will sneak out of the madness just in time to be back on air in the US on Sunday, May 1st from 4-7am!  Wow, jetlag combined with three wee hours in the morning with Nancy Hornback could get a little crazy, we’ll see!  I hope you will too…..we have some special things planned! But back to love for a moment.  I think it is wonderful that an entire country, and much of the world, is transfixed by this royal love story.  With so much turmoil in our world, it is refre...

What a wonderful way to celebrate Easter, together!

Last Reply by madeinamerica 1303863525.097 | in Jewelry Talk, Hosts & Personalities, Carolyn Pollack

Hello Sisters, I am always so honored to be a part of QVC’s Sterling Designer Gallery shows, and this Saturday night, April 23rd at 8:00pm, will be extra special! While I was at the Tucson Gem and Mineral Show in February, my buyer called to ask if I was discovering anything that I had never been able to bring to QVC before.  Something new, rare and wonderful that would be a piece to feature in a limited quantity for the April Sterling Designer Gallery show.  Much to my delight, I was standing in front of a table featuring a stone with a color so glorious that I purchased all ...

Flat Stanley is here!

Last Reply by azcougar 1345175923.527 | in Hosts & Personalities, Carolyn Pollack

Our dear Sincerely Sister Libby sent Flat Stanley to my gallery in Albuquerque this past week.  I am so excited!!   I think Flat Stanley has a way of bringing out the best in everyone! A visit from Stanley inspires us to get out and experience all that we love about life in New Mexico. We plan to teach him a thing or two about designing and creating jewelry, treat him to some of our famous food, take him to our favorite cultural and scenic attractions, and of course do a little shopping!  Stanley tells me there is a certain person back home in Atlanta who can’t seem t...
