Sunny Days

Memorial Day Weekend was so beautiful and relaxing! My cousin Kristen came into town and we went out on the boat with my aunt and uncle for a huge air show they have at Jones Beach! It was gorgeous out and the show was awesome!
This week at work I've done a great mix of things! Tuesday I did a bunch of stuff around the office and actually made a trip to Bloomingdales on 59th with Jamie, one of the retail coordinators. That Bloomingdales= UNBELIEVABLE. It was like 8 floors and had soooo many amazing designers. She walked me around and explained all about what she does and I got to meet the Joes Specialist in the Men's denim and he was so cool and the visuals were set up like none other (he apparently has doubled what he should be selling!) and we went to the women's area, the specialist wasn't there, and reorganized and she talked me through all of the fits. She gave me a lot good info and I learned all about Joes fits. Joes has specific fits for a woman's (and man's) body which I didn't know! Things like...the provocateur is a petite fit for girls with shorter legs and the honey is for 'curvier girls' (this does not mean you're fat) aka if you got a donk b/c it has a contour waistband which comes higher in the back so your crack doesn't hang out when you bend down...a plus! Anyways I got done at like 4:30 and walked around for a bit and couldn't even handle how huge that store was and so I decided to come back on an earlier train!

Wednesday I did a lot with the sample sale, tons of reorganizing which I was loving (I'm such an organizational freak) and uploading a bunch of pictures for one of the reps. I also got to create a newsblast that they might potentially send to clients on the Bachelorette. Apparently she was wearing Joes in the first scene of the latest episode so I got to create a little ad sort of thing which was exciting.
Today I actually didn't go into the showroom, and instead, met Jamie in some stores on Long Island. First she did a seminar at a Bloomingdales for the salespeople to learn about the Joes products that they're selling in their store. I got a ton of background info on Joe himself too which was cool and additional info about the jeans themselves. All the work is done in the US and all of the details on the top part of the jean are hand-done and each jean goes through an intense wash process, etc. We went to a Saks, Nordstrom, and another Bloomies to see how everything was going, set up, sales, etc which was fun and she let me go when we were done so i was done at 2!

This week has flown by! Hopefully I'll have some interesting stuff to do tomorrow and finger's crossed for beach weather for the weekend! PS Just found out that I'm going to see the American Ballet Theater perform at the Met on Monday with my Aunt! Freaking out!!!!!!!! Never seen the ballet in NY and I literally stopped the car and was speechless when I found out!
