yes…a good deal of my job is spent in client closets…and another big part is spent in departments stores, boutiques…malls…so it is important for me to know what is in stores…pretty frequently…and while i make a habit of perusing the stores…usually by myself…it is a whole lot funner when it is with a group of like-minded women…
the aici (association of image consultants) san francisco chapter will occasionally put together what we call a “walk-about”…where a different location is chosen each time…and we have a little guided tour set-up for us…this last week…we had such a walk-about in santana row – san jose…
and let me tell you…there are some nice perks that come along with this already fun day…many of the stores that choose to participate will offer up presentations for us…discounts…discounts for clients…and other fun goodie bags…
here is our group from last week…surrounded by…well…kate spade handbags…can you think of anything better? it was a fun day to catch up…brainstorm…and of course…shop!

and when a boutique welcomes us with champagne & macaroons…well…i am pretty much all ears… =) as anne fontaine did for us…yes…i had a glass…and one macaroon…pistachio…

we ended the day at an outdoor mexican restaurant…chips & margaritas…more laughter…and lots of chit chat…all in all…a hard day’s work…after all…i’m just doing my job…
It’s a tough job but someone has to do it! It was a great day – and you’re right, so much more fun when you’re in a group!
yes!
