Shopping with my Sister April 27, 2009
I am so proud of my team. I have to share with you. My little sister, Amy, was in from Minnesota and asked if I would take her shopping. She deams herself a hard fit because she carries her weight in her lower body…a blessing from my dad. I had on the agenda to bring her to Leigh’s on Saturday. In the morning she informed me that I probably couldn’t fit her and that we should look at a local department store. So, begrudgingly, I take her to a local department store….remember…I never shop anywhere but Leigh’s, so this is killing me. After 30 pairs of pants, gobs of tops, we walk out with two pairs of pants and a few shirts. Amy then tells me that she needs to get more of the perfume that I gave her for Christmas…Trish McEvoy Sexy 9…and can we go to Leigh’s. I, of course, am most agreeable. We get to Leigh’s and we start out in cosmetics. Carol and Riese suggest to Amy that for summer she should try a lighter fragrance such as Trish’s Sexy 4. Amy smells a sample and loves it and appreciates the suggestion. While she’s over in cosmetics having fun, I share with Gail and Pat my frustration at the department store. Not one person helped us and I’m not even thrilled with the fit of the items we did get. They then suggest that Amy tries Tribal and Not Your Daughter’s Jeans (NYDJ). We take 4 pairs of pants into the fitting. Amy puts on the NYDJ….oh my word….she looks hot! I told her she has a Beyonce’ butt. These jeans make her curves look great! She is just thrilled! Then we try on a pair of capri’s from Tribal. Now, Amy does not own a pair of capri’s because she thinks they make her legs look thick. Well, not these capri’s, they are a perfect fit. We then start looking at some great little jackets to pair up with her new pants. We make sure things are interchangable, so she can have several different looks. It was such amazing service. Amy was having fun and finding looks that really flattered her figure. And my team was having fun. My mom called me later to tell me that Amy had the best time ever, most fun shopping ever and that she was made to feel so special. Kudos to my team. I am so proud of them!
PS: We did make a stop on the way home to the local department store to return the items we purchased there earlier in the day.

This week has been crazy great and way too much fun! Claudio Riaz was in on Tuesday and Wednesday with his brush line….amazing! He used YSL for all of his applications. Our customers loved him and he gave the best lessons on using his brushes to create that perfect look we have all been trying to achieve in our make-up. We had Yolanta in from Nutura Bisse’ on Tuesday, so we tried to keep the volume down while she was giving facials. Her facials are even better than those I’ve received at the Golden Door Spa. Today, we had Michelle in from Trish McEvoy and her chair hasn’t been empty. Everyone wants the latest and greatest from Trish. And we have trunk shows. Bruno (love the French accent) and Lisa are here from the Globe Showroom in NYC and Mary is in from Cole Haan footwear. It is a great week – high energy, familiar faces, new faces and a bright start to the spring season!
