there was nothing special there 

stuff you could find anywhere

@jackthebear I disagree about Idina Menzels' line.  I loved it!  But I can see why it didn't last here.

 

She had fairly common items, but put more modern approaches to them, at least modern when compared to the typical QVC items.

 

For example, QVC is so afraid to do v-neck tops or wider neck tops.  They have to always reassure that the "V" is not too low.   So QVC's v-necks are usually so high it can be aging looking.  Idina made true v-neck t-shirts, and I have all colors offered.  I also have one of her mock neck sweaters which is fantastic.  

 

But I think designs like that, and QVC pricing them through the roof with that "celebrity-premium" price-tag  is what did her in here.  

 

It's why I only make about 10% of my clothing purchases on QVC.

Haven't seen any Barbara Bixby or Black Hills Gold jewelry lately.
