A Compliment a Day Keeps the Doctor Away

I got a compliment from a customer today. She visited our shop together with her husband, because he needed some pants, a shirt and a sweater. 
Like always, I was trying my best to satisfy their needs and out of the blue, she complimented me. She said I was a very nice person and that I was very good at my job. She said that it was very hard to find people with patience and enthusiasm for the customer.
I turned red.

Men are Easy

Men are sooooo easy to dress. They come in, say what they want and won't leave without it, because they HATE shopping. I love them, they make my day!

Back in Business

People would call me crazy for this, but during my holiday from my full time job I'm helping out at the shop I worked for when I was a student. 
Portobello is a clothing store for men and I always loved working here! Suits, shirts, sweaters, you name it! I will sell it to you!
After 2,5 years, I'm back! I worked my first day and it feels like I just went on a looong vacation. I have truly missed this! I'm so happy right now, although my feet hurt from a long day of running around for customers.

Shawl Collar

My boyfriend and I went shopping. Because of the Autumn Shopping Days, a lot of stores were opened. 

We went to Portobello, a men's clothing shop at Leuven where I worked in my student days. 

My boyfriend is a very easy person when it comes to clothing. So easy, that it's hard for me to dress him sometimes...

He likes: black, grey and blue. I like: bright colors.

He likes: standard fits. I like: something different and original. 

Do you see why it's hard? I sometimes think he's dressed too boring. 

Anyway, when we were at the store I found him a beautiful shawl collar from PME Legend. He didn't want to try it on, but I made him do it. He was looking soooo sexy, but I couldn't convince him. After every shirt he tried on I asked him if he was sure he didn't want the sweater. He tried it on four times. 

He bought four shirts (two colorful), a chino pants 

and the shawl collar :-)

VICTORY!
