Canyon Retreat

The representative for Canyon Retreat is a real go-getter! She is on with Courtney and literally drowning her out. She wants to be the lead in this preentation and that's for sure. I've never seen her before tonight except remotely and she comes off quite differently from there. Energy plus!.

I've seen her once before. She's the brand ambassador and is selling the line.

Tess has been a fashion expert for a while in the South and online. I don't know whether or not she still does that since she has been working for QVC.

If I were to purchase this dress I would probably go for the navy paisley one, very pretty print.

"Go-getter"? I find her obnoxious.

As someone who lives in the SW, I would have preferred a presenter from the West or SW. Really - the South? Someone like Jacqui Gonzalez from "the Old Days " would have been perfect.

I like some of the patterns, colors and styles. I did not warm up to the brand rep at all and found her too hard to watch. I also really didn't like the hat she chose to wear, something I've personally seen as "typical" of the southwest "style" e v e r y w h e r e. Just not a hat style I like on mostly everyone I've seen wear it.

Basically I like this brand, but honestly, can't we please have presenters/vendors tone down the presentation? No need to be aggressive, loud, pushy or entertain us with song, dance or the cute stuff the kids did during the week? Just talking out loud.....

Everytime I see this brand I want to retreat to the canyon. Just adding names on brands to try to get more interest to buy. I think if you are small like Courtney, it will look good. This dress is not for everyone.

@elated
Hilarious post! 😅
They have managed to design a dress that looks equally horrible on every single body type. No shape, weird ruffle or tier at the bottom, added trim that emphasizes the wrong part of the arm and the most depressing and uninspired prints I've seen this year. The dress just looks dowdy and sad and dated, even with a pair of cowboy boots and a hat.
Move over in that canyon please, I'm comin' with ya. Drinks on me! 💜

@MarnieRez3

You're calling the 1850s look "dated"?!?!?!?

I feel like contributor "Elated" that this style of dress is not for everyone. I like the Boho look but this dress seems a bit "young" for a 71 year old.

Ladies, I don't mean to be disrespectful just my opinion. If I was younger and still a redhead I'd buy the rust and maybe the wine color. Like it with boots.

I'm still interested in seeing what they come up with, but I agree, I'm after "the look" with an updated style. Without it, the pieces just look kinda old.....and tired. I can get that with some of the pieces I alreadty own and stuck in the back of my closet 30 years ago....

At least she doesn't use a loud whistle during her presentations as CHUNKY does with the Gravel Wednesday A.M. shows with Kim G. and Mary.

I cannot use ear buds in my ears listening to those three ... that whistle and loud canned-applause throughout the entire show is ridiculous...and unprofessional.
