setting up for spring 09 trunk show

well...it's that time again...hard to believe sometimes...this is when i notice how time flies...
didn't i just do this for winter 08?

for those of you unaware of what i do...part of the time...are my trunk shows...
four times a year...i set up in my home...basically a boutique shop...of about 400 pieces of clothing...and then i have appointments set up with women...one on one...to help them find the perfect outfits...

the great part is that these clothes...designed by a designer out of new york...are exclusive...in that...you will not find them in any boutiques or malls anywhere...women love the uniqueness of the clothing as well as the quality...

as much as the set-up takes out of me...i really enjoy the set-up of the trunk shows...

it starts by fed-ex dropping off anywhere from nine to eleven 50 lb boxes at my doorstep...i then proceed to unpack and setup the store...it is an all day back breaking event...

but the final product...well...it is pretty spectacular...the women that have come to prior shows are amazed that my home...once a living room...is now truly...a boutique shop...and it has to be...to make it "pretty" for the women to look at the clothing...

for a full year now...i joined forces with a good friend of mine...a...which has made the set-up a little easier...because now there are two of us...and...i have someone to talk to...during the set-up...

last year...we used my home...and this year...we are switching it up...and using her home...and we have added a new component to our shows...which is an educational piece...to hopefully get some new clients in...and be true consultants to them....

our first educational event will be a champagne fashion-ar (think seminar) with a color consultant teaching them all about color...and what works for each of them with their skin tone eye & hair color...we already are at standing room only for this event...so that is pretty exciting!

it was definately a good decision on our part to implement this...we also have created some nice goodie bags for the ladies...which i think they will be pleasantly surprised with...

and hello...did someone say bubbly??

if you would like to view the collection... feel free...there is actually a runway fashion show you are able to view...there are still some spots open for appointments...so feel free to let me know if you are interested...we are showing through march 4th...
