Another and another Ripka show with a cool little $600+ ring. Give me a break. S*x and the city reruns are looking great!

If I am going to buy high priced sterling silver I prefer to see and hold it etc! The Q has become extremely predictable and I find that sad!

I rarely watch the programming on QVC anymore, but I do watch certain shows...but I really cannot stand these 24 hour events that they seem to have lately....especially fashion and jewelry.

I flipped around looking for something to watch this morning, and went to QVC and low and behold there is JR all snooty and ridiculous trying to explain how the TSV worked....and IMHO way overpriced. WAY overpriced. I guess I just don't get the appeal.

I agree! And when Rick (the ChickenHawk) Duhmeier was showing her "the many ways" to make it work, she was zoning out & no help (during the Noon hour today). In fact she had the 'components' of the necklace/bracelet, and she kept playing with them on the table (overhead shot) UGGHH!

Judith Ripka is to Designer Silver Day what Susan Graver is to Fashion Day. They are both on all day and all night with the same old, same old.

Yes, and why anyone would be interested in the overkill is beyond me.

I almost gagged when I heard her say tonight about a $77 pair of diamonique CLAD earrings that she wears them all the time. Yeah right. She owns a high-priced jewelry store where real earring in 14 k gold are sold and she is wearing low-priced fake jewelry. Boo.

Yes. It's all about selling tons of cheap diamonique. Honestly, she has so much merchandise on QVC is starting to remind me of a bargain basement, only without bargain basement prices. Not appealing to me. I watched Hagit and Michael Dawkins.

I agree. It is Judith Ripka Day. I know there are a lot of people who really like her and Barbara Bixby. They just don't do anything for me. I miss RLM back when he was the premiere designer. I would like to have seen some Carolyn Pollack, and I know she has a TSV sometime this month. These days I enjoy more the Israeli jewelry lines. Some very pretty things are to be found there, although I had to waitlist the heart earrings.

February 21st. I pre-ordered her TSV cuff in the turquoise color and it is beautiful. It's so well-made and flattering that it is definitely a cuff I want in each color. Choices are turquoise, lapis or mother of pearl.

WHAT IS THE ITEM NUMBER?

RLM should sell on QVC the beautiful jewelry he sells at Neiman's. It is 14Kt clad and it looks like all of that classy jewelry he did for Donna Karan. It is the same price point as Ripka, Bixby and Dawkins on QVC. I loved the Sterling Designer Day. It is one of the few times I watch QVC all day. I also save stuff to my wish list. Obviously like most people I cannot buy everything in sight. Some of the jewelry was breathtaking.

Judith Ripka is a talented jewelry designer. I see no reason to put her down personally like some of the previous posts.
