It is interesting how we all see things differently. Now I have to admit I only "see" the show in the middle of the night with one eye open, but I feel in the beginning Shawn started out mistreating Alina. In fact, I thought about sending Alina a message telling her to stop allowing Shawn to bully her.

I think Alina was nervous about her new show and rather than Shawn showing a compassionate side, she acted like Miranda Priestly. Shawn was frenetic bouncing all over and would leave Alina alone with no idea where she was going.

To my eyes, Shawn has created an ugly persona. I am glad Alina is finally standing up to her.

@magicmoodz I remember Shawn treating her not very nicely and I remember people commenting on it. Totally forgot about that.

I don't recall those posts, but thank you for your validation. Sometimes I feel like I am odd woman out, but I am also confident in knowing I have the ability to read a situation on a different level.

@KittySoftPaws I believe they are friends and just teasing..I have a good friend - she is about 4 months older than me...sanding joke about how old she is compared to me and it is all in good fun.

I must be waaaay behind. I don't know who Alina is and what product does she promote. I don't watch Shawn at all so I guess I'm way behind. I've been watching QVC a long time and I just don't remember an Alina.

I've seen maybe one PLW show with SK and found Alina rather obnoxious, but then guess she's a good pairing with Shawn as so is she!

@luvmybeetle When I saw this thread, I didn't have a clue who Alina was. I kept reading, then I saw "PLW" somewhere and figured it was probably the line of clothes with the writing and slogans on them.

I'm not one to wear anything with sayings or any type of graphic tshirts or sweatshirts. That being said, I recently bought a PLW shirt that had the saying "I woke up happy today". As many of you know, and probably going to roll eyes at me, my youngest daughter is special needs. Anyway, unless she's sick, she wakes up happy every morning. My husband, oldest daughter and I agreed that this shirt was made for her, so I bought it. She's nonverbal and communicates in her own way. I do like Alina and her line of clothing, not all but a lot of it. I feel Alina and Shawn's banter is just their way. 🤷‍♀️

I don't really care for Alina. She is like a modern day Hippie or something. I have never purchased any of her clothing, so I have no idea what the quality is like. Her line does not interest me because of the style, and her, frankly.

Agree. A couple of years ago I purchased a couple pair of PLW cotton drawstring pants which I usually never wear but I kept thinking that some day I'm not going to feel comfortable in shorts and that the pants would be good cover but still cool.

The "deal breaker" for me was when I saw a bright red ridiculous "stitched in bar tag" sticking out like a sore thumb on the bottom of the "BLACK" pant leg! She puts this tag on ALL of her clothing including her SWEATERS! I guess she thinks that she is Tommy Hilfiger whom I also refuse to buy his tagged clothing! I never wore the pants and donated them to charity.
