Approximately five days a week I am fortunate enough to call the little pink box on the far north end of Scottsdale Fashion Square my home. What is this magical place where tulle is heavy and moods are light? Well, it's my "Taffetopia" and my place of work, the Betsey Johnson store.
It may occasionally smell like pizza, and our back room may be the size of a small mouse hole, but over the last 10 months it has become one of my most favorite places to be. Maybe even a sanctuary of sorts. Working at Betsey has made me realize (even more so) that I must work in the fashion industry. I can't exactly describe the feeling that I get when I go to work every day. Ok, maybe there's a day here and there that I'd rather be snuggled up in my bed watching Gilmore Girls, but for the most part I feel a total sense of calm when I walk in those glass doors. To put it simply: I know that it is exactly where I belong at this time in my life.
Please don't misunderstand me, I am by no means saying that being a pink lady is easy. We have goals, and chores, and duties that aren't nearly as glamorous as trying on our newest $500 gown. But we do have a lot of fun, and one of the most fun and exciting things that we get to do are our theme days every Saturday.
Each Saturday one of us Betsey babes chooses a theme and everybody working dresses accordingly, it's very simple but also not. We must wear predominately Betsey merchandise, and we must go all out- but that's what makes it fun anyway! Here are a few of my favorite themes we've had so far. Let me know what you think, and please add us on Facebook so you can see the new themes every week!
XOX,
