Omg, yes.  I've been buying jewelry from them for 4 years now.  I just bought another big jewelry box from them because it's like an addiction.  I can't stop myself.  The quality excellent, superior to what I used to buy from QVC and HSN.  I do think Evine still has the best jewelry but it can be expensive.  At my age, I am buying pretty jewelry but I am not investing in jewelry.  I love that ShopLC silver jewelry is platinum plated and that all the rings are nicely finished with under galleries.  They also sell some, not much, vermeil jewelry.  Which is far superior to the gold over silver that the other shopping channels sell.  The prices just amazing.  I'm building my AA and AAA Tanzanite collection and also my Sleeping Beauty collection.  However, as with most things, you get what you pay for.  I don't watch or buy anything from the under $10 Friday shows even though mush of it silver with real gemstones.  Today is Emerald day and I am only watching a off and on because I don't want to be tempted.

We’re. Not getting the same quality CZ stones here that we used to get. Different formula  and composition of the CZs in the last three years.  I’m wondering how nice and realistic Shop LC CZ are.

The new CZ line Lustro Stella is using 4A quality stones. That is as good as it gets. One of the LC hosts mentioned that the sparkle from a 4A CZ comes very close to that of a Moissanite. Also mentioned was the cutting of their stones being top notch and that is really what is most important when it comes to making a stone sparkle.

I'm sorry that I didn't buy more items from the line a few days ago. The inventory right now is very low and many things are sold out. I hope they restock and bring in new stuff. Unfortunately that's the way it is with the LC. When you see something you like then don't hesitate because it will be gone and may never come back.

Re: Interesting stone setting.

SilleeMee, did you buy these earrings? They're really pretty.

I bought a ring from JTV that has an invisable setting in the middle. It looks like 1 ct emerald diamond. It's a pave setting. I love it. It does worry me that if I hit it wrong all those diamonds will go flying. I think they do a good job though. I would think you would have to be a master cutter to be able to set all these diamonds, or CZ's, together.

Yes, I did buy those 'flower' earrings. Waiting for them to arrive!Smiley Happy

Those stones are tension-set and are 3mm each stone. So the studs are not big, which I was looking for.

I like that the flower earrings have only 6 prongs and that they are solid on the sides, not a basket-style setting but more like a bezel. Very low profile.

I watched the debut show and saw these. They are very pretty. I like the ring they have in the same style. The designs in this brand were very nice and extremely affordable. Their stones are 4A grade quality. JTV and the Q's are 3A. I ordered this ring because I wanted to see how it compares to Diamonique.

Re: Interesting stone setting.

@SilleeMee  I'm sorry to say that I will be sending the ring back. The ring itself is beautiful and very sparkly. I took a close look under a bright light and the main center stone has a dimple in it. I will try again when they have another presentation. I hope you have better luck with your earrings.

Oh that's too bad! I'm sorry you got one with a flawed stone. I guess that can happen sometimes. Smiley SadMy earrings should be here on Friday. I hope they are okay. I'll let you know.
