Boots, boots and more boots

We have had boots coming in like crazy. The fall is definitely the season for them. Western is still popular this year, however we have recieved no metallic boots this year, so I don’t know if that is on the way out or not. There is always the classic pointed toe, high heel, high shaft leather boot (a favorite of mine). Suede is makes for a popular boot, but there is more uptake for maintanence on it. UGG boots are back again as well, no matter what you think of the look they’ll keep those piggies warm. Good luck with any boot decisions!

possible change?

To all of my readers:

I am debating on altering the ‘attitude’ of this blog, as I feel that my attempt at comedy, may just be coming across as complaining. I don’t hate my job, like I sure it seems. It was suggested to me, to maybe also include fashion trends, brands, etc.. information, as well as an occasional story. Any suggestions or comments?

Can they not dress themselves?

One thing that really drives me crazy is when the mother gets to the department before the daughter and has you go get shoes for the daughter. You got retrieve the 6 pairs she think the daughter will like, and inevitably about that time the daughter shows up, hating all of them. Then, the daughter has you go pull another 5 pair. Once you bring those out, the mother, having not seen them, says “No, no, those won’t do at all.” Now you have pulled out 11 pairs, for no reason, and you get to hear a spoiled teeny booper argue with her crazy mother. Wasn’t that fun?

man…what a day

I am going to share a story with you, this is 100% true, believe it or not. This event took place about a month ago and is probably the craziest shoe story that has happened to me personally:

I am working in the back and a co-worker says I have a phone call, or at least they think it is for me. The person on the other end of the line gave a description, and I was the closest match, being of the same height, size, ethnicity etc… It was a man on the other end and he asked me first off if I had ever told a woman she had nice legs. I said no, I wouldn’t say that to a customer, then he went on to say that someone had told his wife that she had nice legs. For a minute, I was afraid someone was going to come beat the crap out of me, but then he said she had liked the comment and wondered if I would be willing to say it to her if she came in again. He said it was her birthday and he wanted her to be in a good mood. ..Now if it stopped here, that would be fine.  He went on to also ask, and I will try and be discreet to make comments on her undergarments, lack there of, and things I would like to try with her (yes, in that way, and he was very descriptive). By now my jaw is on the ground and I am appauled. I managed to say that I couldn’t do that and quickly wrapped up the call, but I was so amazed someone would ask that and I couldn’t even think of a response like “Are you nuts?”
