She wears her hair the way she likes it. I’m sure you do the same.

 

A personal comment about her “wig” adds nothing of value.

Wow!  Major plastic surgery.  Didn't even recognize her.

It seemed to me that this Sunday's show, Sandra was basically presenting the regular QVC stuff, not her own line. It was as though she took the last hour of ITKWD.  But this coming Sunday her own line will be presented, she said.
If people want to know more about her background etc. you can google her and read her Wiki page. I found the charitable work and contributions portion nice. So I'm more than willing to see what she will be showing the next two weeks.
As a cancer patient, cancer becomes a part of who you are. So I understood why she mentioned it. From reading her WIki page, it sounded like it was all-consuming. 
I wish her well.

I had no idea who she was. Certainly not interested in a decorating show.

I remember her show. I think it was about cooking shortcuts. She a lovely lady who has lived through hard times. Good for her for still doing what she loves. I hope she does well.

I'm curious about that jazzy red velvet top she has on.

 

I have an occasion where this might be just the thing. 

 

I don't see it mentioned on her page there today.  Anyone have any ideas what it might be?

Did anyone else find today's show very, very awkward and difficult to watch at times? It truly seemed like neither Sandra nor David was comfortable throughout most of the show, and it was surprising to see how unprepared and amateurish they appeared as they walked in front of the camera multiple times, weren't ready for presentations or where they should be on set, and didn't play to the camera well. More than a couple of times, the camera panned to David and he was squinting because he was too far from the monitor or almost scowling when he wasn't part of the presentation, not looking like he was enjoying himself at all. Fortunately, the vendor guests did a nice job overall, but the TSV presentation went on forever (as usual).

 

Last week's show was just a weird smorgasbord of QVC items with Sandra hosting, and even with the addition of her new items this week for her to highlight, the show just wasn't worth watching. I won't be tuning in for the finale next week, but I hope that if they keep bringing Sandra back in the future, someone can consult with her and whomever else she hosts with to improve things.

I watched and it just goes to show hosting is not as easy as it looks. 😉


And I think Alberti would have been the better choice to pair with Sandra. David just didn’t have the enthusiasm needed for Sandra’s home decorating show. 🤗🤗🤗

It looked like the 11/17 presentation was thrown together at the last minute.  At one point a crew member took the table Sandra and David were using and moved it in the middle of their demonstration. 

There was also an awkward moment when Sandra tasted one of David's Cookies.  The vendor asked Sandra what she thought of the cookie and Sandra took a long time before she finally not-so-convincingly said in a quiet voice "Pretty darn good" to which David said, "Really?"

I also found Sandra to be visually distracting.  She looked like she was wearing a blanket with a belt around it and also an inordinate amount of jewelry.
