The irony of Peace Love World

Bubbas Mommy — Thu, 28 Dec 2017 02:46:57 GMT

I saw a previous thread about the Peace Love World vendor Alina Villasante, and I was unable to reply to TuesdayTaylor's post, but I am in complete agreement with her. Villasante has been with QVC long enough to know better than to say the things she does, yet she remains just as rude, insenstive, and arrogant as she was from her first appearance. Tonight she even suggested her palazzo pants be paired with "wife beaters" (slang for men's undershirt). Not cool, Alina. Not cool, QVC. She obviously won't alter her behavior, so I wish QVC would step up and step in. The brand name that she espouses is contrary to her attitude toward the hosts and loyal viewers.

Doris Dalton referred to a "wife beater" once and many board participants nearly came unglued. The Peace, Love vendor is very loud and over the top in her demeanor. I turned the channel after 3 minutes of her.

The brand reminds me of junior high school clothing. Just don't get it. Especially at those prices. Go to a thrift shop instead.

Does that mean they really beat their wives? I'm not familiar with this term at all.

How old is that Vendor ?

I did read up a little about her but did not get anything I felt useful to me. I've purchased a top of this brand as I like a funky/worn loose look...and zippers.

I had a hard time following the show tonight with her and the host. They seemed lost in their own odd world of ??..... I think it was about love or the printed version of it anyway.....shrugs shoulders.

eta:: Did not buy anything.

Can't watch her at all.

like you stated, it's a slang word. Honestly if you find her offensive as you say, don't watch her. I watched the entire show and didn't hear her say that. I didn't find her rude, insensitive or arrogant. I like her clothing. It's pretty cool and well made.

I am not comfortable wearing most of her affirmations on the outside of my clothing as, although I may be having a good mood and good day, many of the people I pass on the street are struggling to just have a decent day. All the same, i do not find the vendor offensive or arrogant. I like her pieces that are more subtle in their affirmations and have raw seams etc. The clothes are fun and lighthearted.

I Would not ever buy plain, over priced high school clothing. Actions are what create Peace and Love in the world.

She is obnoxious, I watched for about 5 minutes then snapped out of it quickly & changed the channel. I felt sorry for Jennifer having to work with her and be bullied around by her. It's ironic all right

Re: The irony of Peace Love World

LindaSal — Thu, 28 Dec 2017 14:38:40 GMT

Not interested in her line at all. As OP stated, silly, childish clothing. IMO

Found this on Wikipedia ~

Giving back is one of Alina’s core values. Peace Love World remains true to its name, spreading peace and love through endeavors like its support of Zanmi Beni, a shelter for abandoned and disabled children in Haiti, and collaborations with special partners in breast cancer, autism and multiple sclerosis. “I have always wanted to do something like this, to tell a story, to make a difference in the world,” Alina says. Peace Love World is about experiencing fashion via the soul – mind, body and spirit.

Peace Love World contributes to social causes through sales and donations. Such projects include "T's 4 Tots," which gives one shirt to a child for every tee sold.Villasante also created the "One World One Love" Campaign. In November 2010 and January 2011, Peace Love World traveled to Haiti with non-profit health organization Partners in Health to aid in post-earthquake relief. The brand continues to support its Haiti efforts by donating to Partners in Health.

@SusieQ_2 I read that too.....but I'm a bit confused.. if she in fact does this it's fantastic but I never hear on air, anyone speak of this 'love'....of giving...

Thanks for bringing the quote here. I personally do not believe words written alone are enough or worthy but real love by actions and walking your talk... so I do hope she does this...

I see she is trying to help women in Peru with that t shirt on here but we never see nor hear about it or the women.....(unless I'm missing all the shows)

Money is a strange thing...it can create greed and do much harm...so I am cautious of all these 'givers, helpers, etc.' - I'd like to see the good and love really created for those poor/health stricken ppl..and children....

@Skyegirl21 I see you've mentioned this also....I agree.

If the line becomes a staple on QVC, they may eventually get a vendor rep. I don't understand why anyone would watch if they don't care for the clothing, but with the lousy programming on TV these days (IMO), QVC is sometimes the best choice to watch, LOL.
