A brief hiatus

Friday, June 19th, 2009

Well folks, I have been ordered by my doctor to cease and desist all work until my son arrives in August. Not that I can’t update my blog from a horizontal position, but with no connection to work – husband has disconnected my emails and all access to basically everything work related – it will be hard to keep you informed about what is happening at LIV!

I may post from time to time, but if you want to know the latest at LIV, you’ll have to check it out in person!
See you in August!

-xo, Joanna

LIV’s birthday bash a smashing success!

Saturday, June 6th, 2009

First, my apologies for not having posted in…can’t even remember how long. My excuse is being seven and a half months pregnant and perpetually exhausted at night. We’ve also been crazy busy preparing for our big birthday event, which happened today.
The weather was glorious, the vibe even better, and we had tons of people all day! The change rooms were still full at 6pm. It was so exciting to feel that momentum, especially after all our hard work transforming the store.
Kudos to Julie, my right hand girl, who worked her butt off through the excruciating pain of having her wisdom teeth out only last week. With a mouth full of cloves and cotton balls, she put her heart into the entire event, sometimes crying through the pain! I am so blessed to have her, and all my fantastic staff. What a team…
So here is a look at some of the new summer merchandising at LIV and some snippets from the day:

Great job, Jule! What a trooper
