Just not my particular taste. To each their own, that way.
However, I am astounded at the prices of her stuff. There is NO WAY I would pay that much for Diamonique and other synthetic stones.
I don't even watch her shows anymore.
I know we can all be very different in what appeals to us in jewelry.
But, I find her prices outrageous, and would just NOT buy it.

BTW, she looks like she's had a LOT of work done. I don't normally notice such things but my sister mentioned it recently; I took a look and yes, she does look like she's had her face worked on, especially her nose. That nose! -- what a mistake.
The Sam Clubs in my area phased out her jewelry, cutting the prices to the bones. I posted my awesome finds a few weeks back.

Well, I can't afford those particular pieces, but I ordered her TSV bangle bracelet last week. I just received it and it is gorgeous and weighty. I am happy I don't feel ripped off with the few pieces that I have.

If people stop paying the ridiculous prices on the Q, maybe she'll be phased out there as well, just like other designers/vendors. Really, how many pieces of her jewelry do people need or just have to have because it's a Ripka? If another vendor, not so known, brought those pieces with those outrageous prices to the Q, I guarantee people wouldn't be buying and the line would be gone.On 3/16/2015 Stella Dallas said:On 3/16/2015 child prodigy said: Also, Sam's (the Walmart big box store that sells huge packages of toilet paper, etc.) sells Judith Ripka.Yes, I heard about that and I've heard it speculated that's one reason why some higher end outlets don't carry Judith Ripka any more.

Overpriced? Yes, but what isn't? I surely don't intend to spend my money on it , and that is my business , just as it is none of my business what you spend your $$ for. I pay no attention to what other's pay for anything as it is their funds - with the exception if they find a good bargain , I want them to share !
Why begrudge others enjoyment ? Move on to a different brand / item if the style /price isn't for you.
