Hello, hello! Today, on a Monday after a magnificent sunny weekend, it's a day to celebrate! Let's have a little chat here on my blog. Today, everything is dedicated to the store's anniversary.
Well then, girls, first and foremost, thank you, thank you, and thank you for everything, for the affection in the messages sent, for the gifts that arrived at the store by mail from dear customers, and also from a supplier who, despite being new, showed a kindness that deeply touched me. Her name is Helena, from a brand that we will have next winter. I'll take this opportunity to advertise her; "Vilagalo," yesterday, out of nowhere, sent a giant bouquet to the store; it seems like she doesn't see anything, but every now and then she comments on my posts, and yesterday she made this gesture. I've been working with suppliers for over 21 years, and no one has ever made such a gesture. She, who is so new, showed this kindness, thank you, Helena!
The physical store had good foot traffic, although we didn't have as big a party as last year, because at 20 years old it was the logo change, and at 21 it was the rebirth of the "Phoenix" from the ashes after such a confusing, unstable last semester, but as the old saying goes: what doesn't kill us only makes us stronger, and so it will be!
These days, those dear people who never forget us always show up, even if they're not buying right now. I'm always moved by so many gestures of affection! The family also stopped by: mother, sister, brother-in-law, daughter-in-law, granddaughters, and, of course, my faithful husband (right and left hand), and the best DJ, my André (thank you, family).
The girls were happy, the energy was very good, and I want to thank them for all their support and dedication, because as you know, for stores like mine, with so many years, it's complicated to make such a complete team change, but the feedback has been so, so positive that I can only thank them for their commitment and effort in winning the affection and attention of the customers.
If you are reading the blog, please leave your feedback about them (those who have already been to the store).
This week is also marked by the change in temperature, finally! People immediately feel more positive about everything, they are happier and, of course, they also buy more; it's an incredible difference in everything, in attitude, joy is immediately etched on their faces.
This week I'm going to try to photograph the cooler items and start a strict diet. Girls, I've been eating so much lately that the only salvation is really knowing how to dress myself, because it's getting complicated; I'm so hungry (which isn't good) and I have a sweet tooth, then there are certain customers who pamper us with irresistible chocolates, conclusion: this is not easy!
Now with the heat, having to show some skin is not easy, lol. I have to get some sun to look healthier and hide the imperfections here (there are almost 50).
I want to end this blog but not before mentioning that this week's TikTok surpassed all previous ones and we already have over 130 thousand views, incredible! We are going to apply ourselves to making different and more professional things for you too.
To all of you, I can only wish you an excellent week and thank you once again for all the shared affection.
A kiss to your hearts, with love.
Carla Valente
