Re: Albany In Italy

[ Edited ]

@cosmic1 I do see your point. The difference here is that Albany is helping promote a competitor by filming with her, promoting her jewelry and interacting with her Tribe. I haven’t her once mention the line she is repping for Evine. JMHO.

Even though some of LR's "treasures" seem like "same old, same old", her "tribe" loves her and she appears to be very successful since leaving the Q.  I received her "Resurrection Plus" serum and, since I've tried many, many  lotions, potions, serums and moisturizers from high-end to the lower-end drugstore brands, this is amazing, amazing. The results are coming in and it has rave reviews!

Albany is representing the jewelry - as a vendor.  She does not work directly for Evine.

Unfortunately, I had to watch the vids and I didn't see any behavior from Albany that looked like it would be in conflict with what she is doing for Evine.  It was low key and seemed to be like something a friend would do.

 

I am sure that Evine is not quaking in their shoes over LR's business and her taking business away from them.  Didn't her filing say something like her business makes $36 K a year, net profit?  Compared to the millions that Evine probably makes?

Where did you learn that LR nets 36K annually?

I just wonder what’s with  the new BFF Italian Style. Albany must certainly have her own fan base to chat with.

Makes me wonder if Lisa is hedging toward an Evine endeavor of some kind.  It’s got to be getting to her having her home always in disarray ( that dining room lined up with trees! )  and having to present from a tiny table in her family room.

There is a business page that are publicly updated by the owner. I cannot remember the name. Her company is Smarter Luxury, LLC. It is a public record.

Albany appears to have moved on.  Good for her.   Give her kudos for doing what she thought was best for her/her family.

@CalminHeart- Was it her choice to move on or was her contract not renwed?

I think she left to "pursue other career opportunities" and "spend time with her family"

@Sheilaray, Albany is no longer a wife.  That's why it seemed so odd that as that took place, she claimed to be leaving QVC to spend more time with her family.  At that point you would think Albany needed a job.  People can say what they want but someone leaving QVC on his/her own doesn't make an announcement on social media after their last show has occurred.

 

I also don't believe Albany was just having a girl time vacay in Italy with LR.  I think Albany was already researching and learning for her new job as a vendor on Evine but she couldn't announce it yet.  I think posters here jumped to the conclusion that Albany was working for Lisa. 

 

I haven't paid much attention to what LR or Albany are doing in Italy.  I saw that they "caught up" for dinner.    Albany did post some things on Instagram early on where she was getting ready for a photo shoot in Italy, she was meeting with various people including a design day where she insinuated she was helping design some pieces.  She also posted about being a part of the Innocos Summit coming up in Miami and said it was a great place to discover new beauty and trends and that it was a great opportunity for beauty start ups.  She is going to be part of an expert panel.
