Just a quick note..
It's been awhile since I've posted to this blog. I guess it's time for an update. First, business is a little slow right now, so we are doing 20% off all items at Bob Ellis through Sunday. I've been taking my days off to take some time with my mom during her knee replacement and recovery. So, if you don't see me, please ask for me I can use your patronage. Also, I'm trying a new blog http://shoetrends.blogspot.com/ to talk about shoes and shoe issues. Take a gander. Hope to see you guys before Sunday.

Updates Posted
I've tired to post some updates to my site. I've added any new merchandise that may have some in, but to be upfront and honest fall is almost finished. Most importantly, i've tried to show what is sold out and what shoes we have only one size left in. Since there are so many shoes that are sold out to only 2 or three pair, I can't show them on my site. However; I can show items that are sold out or down to the single pair. Take a good look and think what you might want before it's gone. Oh yeah, 2 announcements. (1) - I've started a new blog where you guys can comment http://shoetrends.blogspot.com/ please stop by, comment and sign up (2) I've decided to be more business like on this site and have a new personal site I've created for my personal feeling and thoughts - the address is available by request. Again, please ask for me and I look forward to serving you !!

Today starts a new week
Well, last week was very strange. I worked 2 days and had no sales and made no money. But I did work both my days off and those days help make up for those $0 dollar days. People are already starting to get upset with me because my sizes in boots are so bad. I try to explain that we only get one per size or that it's getting late in the season, but they don't want to hear that, they want their boots. Sorry, these days it's less inventory and more need for urgency on the part of the buyer. I'm sure that the department stores still have sizes in there quantity boots that everyone has and gets, but we are already getting low in the speciality, unique styles. But, come on by and see if we still have your favorite.

So, we are going to give 20% off all handbags (except Stuart Weitzman) and remember Charlotte Store Only. Please drop by, ask for me and let me show you some great handbags. Let's see how they look in person and look on you.

What a week..
I'll tell you with the markets ups and downs this week, my sales have suffered. The long time employees have many more customers than I do and they are doing pretty good, but personally I'm struggling. I know a lot of us are in the same boat. Being on straight commission is hard right now. Heck, I worked 6 days last week and 2 of them I didn't make any money at all. I'm sure as consumer confidence begins to rise, so will my sales and the influx of new customers. That's my main reason to have you ask for me. I'm working 6 to 7 days a week to make up for sluggish sale so I'm there a lot more. Come by and see me and let's try on some new items and have some fun.

New arrivals and a new designer

Remember, this week is 20% off all boots and booties over $600.00. This sale ends Sunday and I want everyone to take advantage of our unusual situation (Early sale at Bob Ellis). We have gotten on some new Henry Beguelin, Henry Cuir and Berny Demore (a new designer - see below). Don't let this sale pass by please... Also, please,, please ask for me even if you don't see me. Honestly, times are tough and if you are going to buy, please let me get the credit and help you. thanks....
Who or What is Berny Demore ?

Nicolas Berny and Alain Demore both met each other in Paris sometime during the late 90's when they were both involved in fashion footwear. Since they were from different worlds, their friendship was born around those differences. Since opposites often attract, the clash of ideas and influences from each designer brings out such a surprising and unique fashion attitude that they decided to team up.

They start designing and consulting for several fashion houses such as Jean-Paul Gaultier, Bruno Frisoni and Celine. Finally they launched their own collection called "Walk the Walk". After being fashion rebels for three years they were finally asked to sign their collection with their real names, so "Walk the Walk" is now Berny Demore.

Each collection is based on a starting point, a picture, a film, a slice of life or even a witty anecdote. Each collection mixes elegant tradition and novelty, aristocracy and steelculture, sport and seduction creating a world of everyday luxury.

The idea that opposite attract generates unseen ideas and lines, which all come to life with some of the most astonishing craftmanship available in Italy. See the astonishing end result.

Back to work Thursday
Well, we were closed Tuesday and Wednesday for Rosh Hashanah. Come Thursday morning it's back to the grind. I hope that you guys will drop by soon, say hello and shop around. I've been so bored and praying for you guys to come by to wake me up. I think with the upcoming cold mornings, I'll be seeing some change in needs and wants. I predict lots of boots and booties sold, so-please come by soon.
