I love your jeans. They are true c/w/s. I bought 8 pair. I am an old rocker and now power my way around in an electric wheelchair. I look so cool in your jeans (size 2P)and they are as comfortable as a pair of pajamas. This is true testament to your designs because pants can get very uncomfortable when you sit in a wheelchair all day.I love the boot cut and retro jeans. I bought a number of great tops when you were on earlier this month. Your styles are better than ever.Keep up the great work!!!

Hi Diane, I have about 10 of your jean outfits and love them. Please bring back the turtleneck tunic in the expresso color. It was sold out before I could get to it. Keep on rocking those styles for us

Diane please bring back the skinny jeans with animal print cuffs, especially the Leopard. They sold out before I could get them & have been looking for them for some time. Also how about a glitter snake going up one leg!

Hi Diane! I love your clothes and would be so appreciative if all could be sized for petites in everything, not just the blue jeans. I purchased 3 packs of the leggings and regretably have to send them back, way too long. I do spend quite a bit having things altered. Please consider petites. Thanks!

Dear Dianne: Since I found your bootcut jeans I wear no other. I was wondering whether we will still be wearing bootcuts this Fall. Is there any new look in pants or bottoms, other than tights that you believe will be in style? I don't find your skinny jeans as becoming as the bootcuts, and I wondered whether I will look out of style if I continue to wear them this Fall. Thank you for your assistance.

Diane, Please bring back more Bling!!! That's one reason purchased your clothes. My closet is full of jackets/jeans with bling and so many compliments when I wear them. Would love to see a jacket with Mardi gra bling. Here in Louisiana its so expensive to find a denim jacket with mardi gra on it. Im 51 and in a 1X size so all the new items don't appeal to me at all. I know in August your jean fest is coming so hopefully there will be bling! bling! Thanks Diane !!

Dear Diane, I just received your two pack leggings, and they will be returned to HSN. I believed you when you said that were great for petites, wrong, they are too, too long for me. I am 5'2 and they do not fit well at all. They bunch at the ankle and I have to roll them up to adjust to my height. This will be my last purchse from you. Please be honest with your customers next time!

I just started buying you garments last september and now I can't stop. We have the same figure so I know everything will fit. I keep missing your babydoll solid tunic. It seems that small and medium fly out the window and I can't miss work to catch the presentation, How else will I pay for it! Love all your tops. Is there a way I can get on a list to know when it comes back?

I was watching you on July 20th and you were featuring your croped stretch jeans. One model was wearing a white top with black diaganol strips on one side. It was off one sholder. I loved it but, can't find it in your collection. Any help? Thanks, Bridget

Willeva, IL 07/21/2009
Dianne: I have shopped with you for more than 10 years. My first purchases were the washable silk color-block shirts and pants. Will you ever do them again? They were/are so pretty and flexible, so all purpose. I still have the ensembles that I bought in 1996 or maybe it was 1997. At any rate please do these again. I guaratee you that they will sell, especially if the cut is classic. Trust me on this. I have a good eye and an excellent sense of style. Thanks.

Diane, I hope you get this email. I LOVED your embroidered hoodie with the roses. But I was too slow to order and it was sold out. I tried calling a few months after it aired but the item wasn't available. Please bring this item back! I would even love it if it was in a shorter length. I missed out and I've regretted it ever since. Sincerely, Sheryl

Lauren, AZ 07/19/2009
D-I am 5' petite gal. Everytime I find something that will fit, you run out of stock and don't replenish. Your leggings that are long are made for tall people, and your cropped ones you don't carry white or black especially anymore. Even the bubble dress is too long for a person 5', and we are the type who love things like that. Not one top is for a petite person & cropped jackets do need pockets. TX! Love your clothes, but more PETITES PLEASE!

Cathy, NV 07/18/2009
Diane, I have enjoyed your clothing for many years now, thank you. I do have a question though, it feels as if the knee area of your jeans is much more of a tight fit than before. I am the same size, so I was just wondering what's up? If you could, please give us a bit more room in the knee and right above the knee area - thanks! Blessings, Cathy Chapman

Oh, Diane-I had the BEST time choosing from the CWS line! At first, the long sleeves & color palette surprised me. But the fabric content makes wearing these styles OK. You are so fashion forward! Your Fall prices are great compared to the mall. DRESSES! Love the gray.Blue looks great on everyone,so I got lace insert dress & silk skirted dress,too! Thank you for xs in a length that works for petites! Love watching you on HS & wearing your creations. Pure delight for 15 years!

Diane love the skinny jeans always get comments from my girl friends. Been trying to order a white pair in petite size 4 seems like forever.... when will they be offered again. I apparently need to get in early for this size and color white is the only color I don't have. I have purchased several pair and again I love your jeans.

Hi, Diane Please bring back short sleeve shirts from last year in those beautiful colors of hot pink, yellow, white, blue and green. Please to hide our upper arms. I'm not a fan of Tunics to hide the tummy area, people ask if you are pregnant!!! I don't like tunics, please bring back your classics short and long sleeve shirts w/stretch for people who have a dress code at work. Thank you.

Cindy, NV 07/18/2009
Just clicked this blog to say pretty much what Dianna from Las Vegas said, because I too live in currently hot Las Vegas. I keep checking your clothes on HSN and find literally nothing but long sleeve and sleeveless tops. You are so great at understanding how important it is to make jeans for baby boomers. How about helping out us over-50s with some short-sleeve tops that are both cool and accomodate/hide those pesky upper arms and mid-section. Thanks!

Dianna, NV 07/17/2009
I live in Las Vegas and its HOT HOT HOT here..what happened to the shorter sleeve blouses. I love your clothes, however, I am unable to wear most of them until November or December when it cools way down. Are your going to be bringing lighter clothing in? Again let me say I have 15 pairs of your jeans and 5 pairs of your capris. Can't go wrong with the fit of them DG2.

Gloria, NJ 07/16/2009
I absolutely love your jeans, I presently own four pairs, only one had to be returned because the sizing was inconsistent with the others (6P). The fit is so figure flattering and they hold their shape after many washings...love that stretch. Keep them coming, they are great for the less than perfect figure. Thanx Diane!

Irene, KS 07/16/2009
Are these new leggings, etc meant to be worn in the summer or is this a fall collection? I can't imagin wearing these in the middle of the summer. Might be great for later in the fall. The colors are also drab and not good for transition wear. Again the tops are too expensive.

I'm a 41 y/o stay at home mom of three boys..my mid section will never be the same lol. Thanks to you and your jeans I no longer have to feel shunned by all the other jean companies who have completly forgotton me. With your jeans I can feel some what normal in my new size 12 post children body. With your help I know I will never again have to cry in a store dressing room because none of the jeans fit my waist. Thank you so much please keep them coming! Oh I loved the s/k pink ones!

Diane, I love your jeans! I have only been disappointed one time with a pair of skinny jeans! Please make more petite jeans ! I'm only 5ft. and your jeans always fit perfectly! You are the only person that truly understands that not all ladies are average or tall. I love you girlfriend!!!!

Diane, CA 07/13/2009
Please make more QUANTITIES in size 2. Like the previous person said on the sunkissed jeans your quantities of this size don't accomodate the many people that need this size since your sizing runs larger so more people need size 2, because of this size 2 is a most needed size and always sells out FIRST. Please observe this.
