Answers to Questions:
First – Thanks for all the feedback on my new “Sammy” hair cut! I wasn’t planning on a short hair cut when I arrived in the green room to say “hi” to Sammy and discuss our show last week – but Sammy convinced me it was time for a change! I’m still getting used to my new “do” – it’s much easier to style and much cooler to wear in the Florida heat!
For the Heidi Daus Fans – I’m glad to hear you love the idea of a cruise! How fun would that be? I’m not sure if this will happen, but I will let her know you’re on board with the idea!
Malissa in CA asks about a reversible earring from Jay King – great suggestion! I will be sure to get the word to Jay’s buyer….his “dream team” of designers loves getting inspiration for new pieces!
Amy in PA – Hi! There’s no question that having a passion for jewelry is in the DNA….your six year old daughter is proof! I can’t wait to tell Amy Kahn Russell that she has a new young “collector” – A jewelry maven in training! Thanks for sharing and for making my day, Amy! is asking about the carved Lapis Sphinx jewelry. I’m so glad you like it….We will try to bring it back, but it may not be until December or January (takes a long time to source and carve the natural lapis stones). Stay tuned!
Crystal in GA
Melissa in CA is asking about my “black diamond” pave flower ring. This ring will be here on May 17th as part of the 3 hour My Favorite Things jewelry show! I’ve had many requests for this ring….it’s inspired by a genuine black diamond ring that I love – but the simulated version is beautiful and affordable! Hope you can watch!
Elizabeth in FL – Thank you for your sweet message! Sammy from Miami cut my hair – He calls this style a layered bob :-)
Hi Pat in NY! You’re asking about my pave “glam” bracelet….It’s one of my favorites and will be here for Host Pick Day in June (with gorgeous matching stackable eternity bands).
Lois in Illinois – I hear you loud and clear about clip on earrings! I will send the word to our buyers that we need to offer a better assortment of clip on’s. Also, I’m glad you like my new hair….Change is good!
Thank you all for you’re great feedback – I love hearing from you, so let me know what’s on your mind.
Fondly,
Colleen
Colleen, I love your shows. You always bring us such beautiful jewlery and accessories. I love the 1st. prestige dangle earring box you brought us. When are you going to bring that one back? It holds many more earrings than the 2nd one you brought.
I heard you say that you read everything on your blog and on facebook and that you answer our questions. I’m hoping you can tell me what’s happened to Molly Sims. I LOVED her necklaces (which by the way, I keep in your Prestige sunglasses boxes). I try to read the program schedule carefully and have been watching for her, to no avail. Hoping I somehow just missed her. Please don’t tell me she’s left HSN!!! She was my favorite…
Hi Colleen,
I recently ordered, and received the new Prestige Earring Box (#120-665), which is a fantastic update from the prior version/model (which I have as well). I wanted to order additional ones to tuck away for birthdays and possibly even the holidays, but the website says that this item number is not found. Did this item sell out? I do hope that you will bring it back (soon). Can you please advise?
I appreciate all the wonderful things you bring to us!
Thank you Colleen,
Dorrie
Colleen;
Hello, I just wanted to tell you that the my favorite things cupid’s bow tension style absolute ring is BEAUTIFUL. I’ve been looking for this style of ring for years, however I wear a size 5 ring and have small hands, may I suggest offering the ring in 1.5 to 2 caret size stone? I’ve been looking at it and wanting to order it, but a 4 caret stone would look soooooo fake on me. I’m a nurse and wash my hands frequently and would love to wear this ring every day..just smaller. XOXOXO
Hi there! I was out late & missed your show tonight, unfortunately. I’m sure that it was a winner. My sister said that you & Natalie looked great! I was told that there was a top with ruffles, a corset and in purple!! I tried looking for it, but could not locate it. Has it sold out, perchance? Plz advise because, only because I wear most of your fashions & you never let fail to disappoint! Thx!
Hi Colleen: I have watched you for years and you are my favorite hostess. I’m writing to ask if it would be possible to get a Shell Round Case Bracelet Watch, #568158, that I discovered in an HSN Booklet for the month of November (I believe it is 2009)? I had marked the item to buy and just found the book now! Thanks.
Like you, I will collect jewelry for the rest of my life. I would very much like a jewelry armoire that is HUGE, anti-tarnish, and has room for at least 300 rings. Also, it should have 25 or 30 shallow, undivided drawers, a flat top that doesn’t lift, bracelet bars to hold at least 500 bracelets, and storage for a minimum of 500 brooches or earrings. I want ONE piece of furniture, ideally about the size of a clothing armoire. Of course, it should lock.
Your picks on your favorite jewelry is so helpful! I have bought many rings based on your comments or favorite picks! On the Prestige jewelry boxes…I had a brown one last year and ordered another style in brown and found out they were two different colored browns. Anyway you can have the colors the same? Also have enjoyed watching you on various shows throughout the years! You’re a beautiful person – who wouldn’t want to watch you!
ello colleen,,,i have a couple of your prestigue jewelry boxes,,and my daughter-in=law really likes my standing necklace box,,i wanted to order one for her last christmas, but, i could not find one,,and still unable to find one on hsn,,,will this item be back anyway soon? i went ahead and ordered a different styl ande for her this yr…but, hoping perhaps the standing necklace box will be back in time for her birthday in july,,,i truly love these boxes and so happy i ordered mine several yrs.
Yes, Colleen please tell me what you had on your skin, cleanser, foundation, powder, concealer, everything you use, the EXACT products, please. Your skin looks like BUTTAH!
Thanks!
Colleen what makeup were you wearing Sat. night Jan.16th, plz? It looked beautiful.
Thank you kindly.
I absolutely love the clean simple ring designs for opaque gemstones such as the Barse Turquoise Domed band ring 397-092 and, even better, Jay King’s lapis ring 524-483. Ideally, I’d love to have Jay King’s design in many opaque gemstone colors. Second choice would be the Barse design at the much lower price point. I just thought I’d put that out there. Oh, and absolutely no facets on the gemstone! I don’t like this trend to facet everything. Thanks for listening.
Hi Colleen, This is the first time I have done this but I think your great and the other night, which was Friday Nov 27th, you had on some jeans when you were doing the new electronic’s today special, They look great on you. Do you remember whose jeans you had on? They looked little faded and straight leg they also had crinkled faded lines by the hips. I dont know for sure but it would be great if you could let me know whos brand they were. You looked fantastic. Thanks.
Colleen:
I saw the Abalone shell Round Case Bracelet Watch in the November Jewelry Guide. I love it! I was very disappointed to see last night that your show was on November 8th, and I missed it!
I see from looking in this blog that you also got similar postings in May, 2009, when it was on before. I’m hoping you will bring it back, or I could get on wait list for it.
Also, please pass along to Jay King (I also love his jewelry!), that some of us with smaller hands can’t wear almost 1 inch l
Hi Colleen, Thank you for your beautiful jewelry designs. You can count on me to watch whenever you are on t.v. I like the new longer length necklaces & often double them, but while I have one loop that’s longer & one that’s shorter, after awhile, the shorter ends up
tight against my throat as the longer loop has worked itself longer. Do you have any ideas on
keeping the loops at the length I’d originally selected. I would even buy something to do this.
Thanks. Marilyn
Hi Colleen
love you, but why have you forsaken us short girls..?
and why when microfibers are so fabulous would you give US the most adorable blouse (the scarf one) in silk..you have got to be kidding NO ONE IN FLORIDA WANTS SILK.. I would have ordered at least 2 loved IN SOMETHING I COULD WASH….hope Diane gilman steals your design .. SHE SEEMS TO GET IT..SHAME ON YOU..
Hi Colleen:
I am writing reference to see if you every have small drusy stone? This is one of my mother favorite stone and I know she watches your show to see what you are offering and has bought different jewery pieces.
Thanks

Is that true? Suzanne Somers will no longer be selling her jewelry on HSN? Oh, Colleen I can’t tell you how many years of enjoyment and laughter I have had watching you and Suzanne together. I will be greatly disappointed missing out on you two together. Sometimes I had tears in my eyes from laughing so much.
Hi Colleen,
I was just watching the clearance show with Suzanne Runyan and was extremely disappointed to hear that Suzanne Somers will no longer have her jewelry collection on HSN. Did I misunderstood? Is this true? My mom and I love Suzanne Somers jewelry especially her trilliant bracelets.
Suzanne Somers is now on Shop NBC.com
Colleen, I just love your new hair cut! I tuned it for Diana Venezia’s show last week and noticed how great you look. Diana looked great as well…just love her chic and fashionable style and collection. I just ordered a bracelet online. My husband was kind enough to surprise me with one of her necklaces after the show. He knows how I love her designs. I hope to see Diana back soon. When is the next show?
Colleen,You are my favorite host and I love all your favorite things.I just recently ordered your cropped pants and the Luxe Kimono-Sleeve Top.I can’t wait to receive them.Will you be bringing back the blue denim lace jacket that you had last year 2008.The lace was on the back of the jacket in an upside down triange shape.I would love to see it back in your Colleen Favorite Things.Thank you.
Colleen,
I would love to know the colors of your hair. It is very attractive.I am a teacher and would love before school starts to get my hair done in that shade.By the way, I love your items you sell. Keep up the great work.
Thank you so much, Marlyn
Your jewelry shows on 7/18/09 were GREAT. The products were bold, contemporary and new. You must be proud to work with your son to source the gems. Great job. Jewelry for todays woman. Thanks.
Colleen, I love your jewelry boxes – just 1 request – please bring us a large open jewelry box so i can lay out all my necklaces (or anything else!)
Dear Colleen, thank you for brining us such beautiful things, I really enjoy when you bring us custom pieces. I have one complaint my dear….the tarnish jewelry boxes. I have 3 black and 3 blue. Now I don’t want a circus of colors on my dresser. I’d like to add pieces but I want them to match! I can’t buy the cuff box or the eye glass box because of the colors. I hope this makes sense. Keep the cool stuff coming :-) warm regards, Maria
Colleen, please comment on when you might be getting in more of the jewelry boxes with 28 compartments or better yet–something for earrings. Thanks!
