This Road.

We are getting lost, our GPS is being overused, our sense of direction is lacking. 

It's the awkward time of somewhere new.

Where is the closest...this or that?

So much as been happening this week/ has happened this week. It's been exactly one week that we have been UT residents. It's been a hard but great week all at the same time.

 I'm starting to realize that I need to relax and enjoy the scenery of this journey we are on. 

AND that it's A-okay to be lost once in awhile. 

Remember:

It's important to do something today that your future self will thank you for.  

My Boutique Sale Review.

So the top 5 things I learned from having my own "shop" for 2 weekends.

1. People are cheap.

2. People don't know how to shop.

3. People care about $4.

4. People don't know what looks good.

5. People aren't creative.

OKAY these might sound harsh, maybe very harsh, 

BUT let me explain before you start thinking I am some meanie.

1. People are cheap- people want used clothes for 99 cents, they think if it's "used" that means that they deserve it for almost nothing. Have you been to Goodwill...yeah um nothing there is cheap and that stuff is crap...okay SOMETIMES you can find something that's rarely been used.

2. People don't know how to shop- people don't dig, don't search, don't try. I would watch so many people just gaze at the clothes. I guess I am the only person that goes rack to rack searching and digging and trying on everything. To me it's like a treasure hunt, you never know what your going to find.

3. People care about $4- I had three boxes of $5 bins, people actually thought twice about getting stuff in the $5 box... contemplating on whether they should get it...IT'S FIVE DOLLARS...it's LUNCH, it's a smoothie, it's NOTHING. I guess $5 is a lot to the public.

4. People don't know what looks good- people think things look bad on them, or they can't pull it off. OKAY people REALLY you can't pull it off because you haven't tried. People need to think outside the box and go for it.

5. People aren't creative- this goes with #4, people aren't creative enough to think about what could go with an item. I would say this is cute, they would say BUT where will I wear that with...I'm like um everything...and then list about a thousand different looks AND then after all those ideas they would say um don't think so. WOW.

I love people, I really do BUT it comes to a point where people say they want to be more "hip" or "stylish" BUT they are not willing to work for it. I guess for the first time I realized being a good shopper is a skill and only few are born with the gift...haha. I thought for a long time that I was cursed with some kind of shopping syndrome BUT I know now I should be grateful for it.

Doing a sale is a lot of work, thank goodness I had extra time on my hands to pull it off. 

So glad so many were able to make it. 

Now that it's all cleaned up and clothes are boxed away

 I am wondering if I will ever do another one of these again after the hours and hours spent pricing.

Boutique SALE.

Three years ago I had a boutique sale, which consisted of items from my closet. I have been asked by many who attended when and if I will be having another sale. 

I'm happy to announce that I am having another HUGE sale this MONTH! 

Coats, jeans, dresses, boots, heels, tops, sweaters, scarfs, hair products! 

Designer clothes for 50-75% off retail, what's not to love? 

Some of the brands I will be selling: Jcrew, Anthropologie, French Connection, Free People, Frye.
There will be a range of sizes, not kidding, xs, s, m, l, xl. There will be something for everybody. 

Everything will be priced, so no awkward negotiation needed. 

Of course I will have cider and treats to make your shopping experience tasty. 

Mark your calendars for October 26 & 27!!!!  

Hope you can join in on the fun and deals.
