I've noticed on more than one occassion that Valerie Parr HIll will say "if your budget allows" when talking about maybe pairing a few items together.  With the tough economic times and rampant inflation hampering buying power, it's very classy of Valerie to do that.

 

Such a nice change of pace from people like Alberti and Jen, who are nonstop "buy more than one" no matter the price of the original item..

She has over priced items that you can find at Michaels for less.

I agree, inflation is staggering here, and with electric heat the bills have been horrendous for that alone. 

I don't watch much QVC but I constantly hear 'look how this top color matches the other, you can wear both at the same time' to boost purchases. And then show a jacket that goes with the whole set. Then it's the '3 or 5 easy pays'.

I've read that gas prices may be jumping yet again, so I am certainly not going to be layering clothes! Lol

A few years ago I purchased something of hers.   Shortly after I was in Tuesday Morning and saw her exact item at a much lower price.

What makes people visit a complementary thread just to post, "I hate him\her\that item. They are so awful..." Of course, we all have opinions, and many are very helpful, but some comments seem to passive-agressively insult the poster.

I dont watch any beauty, but it never occured to me to jump into and say, "<the rep> is such a fake, and the products are awful." Or: "Those products are junk, but yay for you if you enjoy them."
