I watch the Q frequently, love lots of hosts and guests but there are some phrases that the Q should consider having folks use a bit less. “Run Don’t Walk” is at the top of the list especially during some Kim Gravel shows. Just my opinion.

I don't like the word smart. lol when referring to the way one dresses.  To me that means conventional.   Lol I think the current trend of using the word denotes a dress code.  Now they have 

smart business

smart casual

smart formal

etc....

usually a tidy, suit ish look.  I wonder if they have smart Boho???

I can't stand when they keep mentioning "the only order for the year."  What they don't say is they ordered 5 million of the said item and it will be around forever. LOL.

I'd rather hear the word smart than when Shawn says something is "sick".  How is that good?

Absolutely!  What goes quickly is XS.  You blink and it's gone.  Leaving only black and darkest blue. Positively the first gone in colors like the rose/magenta, burgundy, etc.  I rember trying to buy Martha's jeans with cuffs on them.  I wasn't fast enough to grab the size 2.  

 

When you have to look for leftovers (like today)  the smaller size are gone

While I am not a betting man per se, I'd bet every last cent the hosts are given certain phrases and words to use when presenting items. Lately I've noticed the word "elevated" as one of the new go-to words.

As soon as fall is on the horizon they start with pumpkin patch and apple picking, it's so tiring.  Tne in the spring it's whit jeans, so over done.

So true, and another one I get tired of is "this time of year with all the family photos" when talking about pretty much anything.
