This last week I was in Oregon and we got the chance to blitz a couple of the Gear shops. As this product assortment continues to grow, it is important that we keep evolving the shop to ensure the correct product/categories are staying together and that the overall flow of the shop makes sense on the floor. Here are a few little tips to help when you are working in your Gear Shops:
This week we had our NW Holiday Planning meeting, and not only did we learn a ton about our new trim but we also got the chance to have a little fun in the form of a painting party! The basic set up is that everyone gets their own canvas/brushes/paints, and you can chose to either follow the instructor and do the painting he does or you can branch off and paint whatever you want. As you can see from the pictures we had a great mix of both, and some people even did portraits of other people that were in the room :) A huge thank you to Cory and Tim for planning such a fun night for us!!!!! I am always on the hunt for new DIY inspiration, and now that we are entering into the rainy season I am ready to tackle some new projects. Here are a few things I might be working on in the next couple of weeks. I will make sure to share the final product with you...if they turn out half way decent ;) If you are looking for more ideas, check out my DIY Projects board on Pinterest

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XAD29QRr0oo The Vancouver store opening was definitely a new experience for me for many reasons. First, it was a flagship opening so everything was definitely elevated from visual elements, product assortment, and events. Second, I wasn't working in all of my usual areas. I supported the Kids division, but I also worked in Handbags and Women's/BP shoes. I learned A LOT about riser recipes these past weeks :) Words cannot describe how beautiful this store is, I seriously could have spent an entire day taking pictures of all the amazing moments. Unfortunately we did not have time to do that, so here is just a sampling of some of my favorite moments from the areas I support. Enjoy! Those of you who have been in the NW region for a while will probably remember the wonderful Christina Lonsdale. She worked in both the Southern Cal and NW region as a brilliant stylist and was the NW BP/Kids Regional Stylist Trainer. Like many people in the visual world her creativity extended beyond the work at the store, and a couple of years ago she left the Nordstrom visual world and went after her passion full time.
That is when she started Radiant Human. A roving, fully adaptable aura photography laboratory that captures your aura in a polaroid photograph. She is still based out of Portland, Oregon but travels with her aura laboratory all over the nation. She has gained quite a following in a short time and has been featured on Huffington Post as well as Gwyneth Paltrow's website Goop, and just recently in a fun turn of events has ended up back in the fashion world. This past weekend she was featured in the October Harper's Bazaar photographing some of fashions biggest names from Alexander Wang to DVF. When you get a chance check out her website and definitely take a look at her article in Harper's Bazaar. http://www.radianthuman.com |
