@TheMemphisVette - Since Courtney had so much trouble with this word, do the hosts not review anything prior to presenting? She acted like she had never seen the word before.

Actually Amy Stran said it incorrectly first; Courtney did a little better. The person speaking in their ear probably had no idea either; haha. They are all too young! Amy actually said Cor Do Vin which had me chuckling! .

@Imaoldhippie . Thank you for reminding me of the Bass Weejuns. I was trying to remember the name of the laofers that were so popular in the 60's. I had a pair.

I have some of their boots I cannot let go of. Such nice items!

Seems that was their signature color for so many things.

I still have a pair of Bass tassel loafers that I wear now and then...without socks, of course.

That was the shoe of choice for me in my teens often paired with anything in a Madras plaid.

Still love both!

I've never understood the idea that they must speak for a living, but cannot pronounce a word.

Write it out phonetically if necessary, but get it right.

I had to speak and write for a living and this was an unspoken/unbroken rule. Don't stumble over your words!

No excuse for it.

Anyone that really knows fashion would easily know how to pronounce that word.🥺

Some of the hosts appear to spend more time on their makeup and nails than they have a clue about what they are about to sell. 😳

Love that cordovan color in leather goods!

Cordovan is one of the most beautiful colors of leather. Can't believe some people have never heard of it. In the '60s I had an Etienne Aigner shoulder bag that I carried every day until I finally grew tired of it, although it looked brand new, I gave it away for $10 bucks & later regretted it.
