Was it just me or did Albany wear something  today that was just a little risqué for daytime home shopping? I also think she was flirting alot with Liam from Vionic.

I guess I'll just say it's a matter of opinion and it does not really matter what the viewer's opinions are.  QVC does not seem to have a dress code for their hosts.

I don't think the outfit in and of itself was risque, but I do think there's an emotional overlay for a dress like that one.  Thus, unless a child has been taught what that dress "means"  whatever it means to a particular person - it will just be a dress.

 

For me, it's not risque so I wouldn't be teaching anyone Albany was poorly dressed for the role she was playing.   She's not selling money or medical advice or representing me legally.   She's on a shopping channel and being a bit edgy fits my idea of proper dress.

Re: Albany s outfit

[ Edited ]

Albany is always over the top in my opinion.....do not ever watch her when she's trying to host a show......

I agree with this. Albany is always appropriately dressed.

I did not care for it. If she likes it that's all that matters. It did look like it was missing something??? Maybe sleeves??? Hate the boots.

I enjoy watching Albany.  Yes, slightly flirty, as usual.  Liam was 'cracking up' (in his words).  I do believe that he enjoys those shows.  'It's always better to laugh'.  (Kathy Levine quote, more or less)

'More or less', 'Right or wrong', 'In general', and 'Just thinking out loud ' (as usual).

I cannot watch Albany any longer and IMO she doesn't belong on the Q as a host.  Her clothing attire is usually very tight, short or revealing and has no problem showing off, turning around with her backside to the camera, as she did the other night in her tight white jeans.  Who styles this woman?

 

I am in no way a prude, but I don't watch the Q to see her "act" and how inappropriate she is with all the male vendors, especially Liam.  One time when I wanted to watch a Vionic show, she was so overly flirty with him and then was giggling like a schoolgirl, I just had to change the channel.  I could see how embarrassed he was because he turned so red and then put his head down, but Liam being Liam he smiled, then just shook his head and said 'I can see how this show is going to go".  Being a married woman with children, you would think that she would dress and act with some class.

I think Albany takes very good care of herself so why not wear that dress to show off her figure.  Normally, I don't see many of her shows.  Today I just watched because it was Vionic and Liam.

Why show off her figure while working as a host on a shopping channel?  How she dresses or acts on her private time is one thing but she should think she's representing QVC on TV, which is in millions of homes. Many hosts have good figures but they don't dress, flirt or act the way she does.
