Well, after our usual crazy April, which was made even crazier by all that snow, we opened on May 9. April is fun because that’s when our new merchandise starts coming in. It’s like Christmas every day as we open the boxes and remember all those orders, some dating all the way back to the previous October. There were lots of oohs and aahs in the warehouse, and coming from our staff who has seen it all, I take that as a sign that we have some great new goodies.
Some of our new clothing lines include Jag jeans, Paradiso resort wear, Sun Moda resort wear, Nickky tops, Nic and Zoe fashion wear, Baggaline bags and lots more! We paid special attention to finding some really good looking plus size clothing whenever we could - in lines like David Brooks, Produce, and Alex Evening. They’re mixed in with the other clothing, so be sure to ask for help if you’re looking for something in particular in your sizes.
We have tons of new lines in home, garden and gift items. Some favorites are Mario Batelli’s high quality cookware in great colors, a new line of spicy foods called Scorned Women (that gives you a clue to just how spicy) and some fabulous heart shaped massage tools that are so easy you can give them to a child and get a GREAT back massage (I’m putting my sons to work on that).
I’ll post some photos next time to share some of our great looking displays.
