She looks nice. Jill's one of my faves.Their on air clothes items are probably just part of the job maybe tax deductible.We have no way to know what or if they pay for them.


I don't care what they pay - they earn, they pay. That's true whether they work at QVC or the supermarket.

But, tax deductible. No for that leather top, but yes, if they had to wear a QVC uniform. Check the tax requirements for clothing. I don't think they've changed in the years since I retired, but clothing you would wear other than to work was never deductible.

I did not care for it. It seemed to me to be a very mature style, merely executed in leather. If done in knit, I would have guessed it was a Bob Mackie design.

I had relatives who worked at QVC. One was a model. There was a time hosts' wardrobes were tax-deductible but they could only wear their clothing in house or for QVC related activities. It was a big no-no to use something you wore on air for personal use.

I remember way back when people who had to wear suits and things for work used to tax deduct them as a uniform cost as well along with dry cleaning bills.

I loved the polish also and would like to know what it is! Without sounding stammering (lol) I can say I was a little mesmerized. I was trying to keep a pic of it in my head so I would hopefully remember it if I saw it!

She said it was "Shellac", but sorry I can't remember the name of the color. It may be in the video of the show. She said she knew she would be asked so she said the brand and exact name of the color. Very pretty. Nice of her to give that information.


It's Tango Passion.

Thanks to you both!!!! Awesome!

I know you can deduct uniforms but clothing and cleaning bills??? That takes the cake!

I've seen Jill look much nicer, I didn't care for that top one bit, thought it looked odd.
