Seriously?

Just heard the host memtion "you could go Apple picking in this" it's a simple Denim & Co tee. It's so ridiculous I can't watch. I guess they think that's what people do on a regular basis or like, NEVER! But that's what's going to make me buy those tee shirts. No wonder they are constantly laughing, even they can't keep a straight face saying this stuff.

Agree. Lame. And unrealistic.

I have always been amazed with the phrase "you can wear this to the boardwalk"... Just how MANY people in this country have one nearby???

Yeah, seriously. You're late to the party if this is the first you've heard this referenced. They use it every fall to sell shoes, sneakers, jackets, you name it.

BUT, saying that phrase --certainly paints a picture in your mind, and truly captures your attention! And isn't that what effective advertising is supposed to do?

It's almost time for pumpkin picking! (I've never done that either!)

@QVCkitty1

More realistically for me, "you can wear this to change your husband's Depends and clean him up for the PT lady."

So sorry--even though QVC is a national/international company, it is also based here in PA near Philly, and only an hour and a half from beaches and boardwalks.

And yes, the hosts all live in this area, and that is the way they and all of us enjoy Summer, because we East coast states take ocean access for granted.

The East coast is also a HUGE shopping market.

I certainly do not wear ranch clothes (cowboy boots, etc.) , although I am sure they are quite popular in other states.

The other night a host was showing a tote that was about $149.00 and she said it was big enough for her to go pumpkin picking and put the pumpkin in the tote. Sorry, but I cant imagine putting a dirty pumpkin (or a clean one) in an expensive tote. A wagon, perhaps.........

Yes, we go to the local boardwalk here on the WEST coast, southern California. I also go to the pumpkin patch every year, especially now that we have grandkids to take. We have a really cool one with Yes, you guessed it, hayrides, corn mazes, food and games. And for apple picking? Yep, but not every year but I do like it and we pick our own strawberries in the strawberry fields of Carlsbad every July. However, what I don't do is wear Denim & Co attire. Just not my style.

Let the hosts put a fun image in your head just for the fun of it. I see no harm.

They could say "you can wear this to the mall" but there aren't many of those left either. Probably best to stick to activities - like to the movies, to church, or out to dinner.

I am in a midwestern location where we have corn mazes, a sweet corn festival, apple picking, hayrides, and pumpking fashion. Our local apple orchard has hayrides, a food store, etc. Community members enjoy these activities and you can generations in one family partaking. The corn festivals are great. They offer activities that are "wholesome" and they are relatively safe. D & Co. clothing is the type that would be perfect for these activities.

@FancyPhillyshopper You poor deprived thing with no ranch clothes. I plan to wear my tees for hog calling out here in the sticks, in my boots.
