my daily notebook

weekly flower post:



I keep a collection of notes in a hable construction journal. This is my 2nd journal which is jammed with postcards, logos cut from shopping bags, business cards, post-its that inspire me. I write out lists of SKUs that need to be printed for new merchandise arriving that week, take down messages from friends or editors, and in the back of notebook are business cards/contact info from recent acquaintances that have walked into the shop etc... I have numbered them and have 66 "friends/networking" contacts so far...

I love the ease of this outfit. It was worn by a customer who reminded me a bit of Bobbi Brown, the make-up artist. She was wearing a fabulous collection of rings and bracelets, silver birkenstocks (which she swears by), wide-legged jeans, and a top by Lulu Lemon (pronounced Le-mond) bought in L.A.

The difference between having a conversation with eb and with me:
eb: you will have a good time. It's all about the customer
mk: we will trade information and network. I will have commented on something you are wearing or that you look familiar etc...
