POV: You own a boutique and it’s the J months. 😂☀️
June…July……AND August!!
Otherwise known as… “Is everyone on vacation?” season 👀😂
Real talk… the summer months can be TOUGH in boutique retail. While everyone else is soaking up summer, we’re over here pondering…
🫠 “Should I mark this down?”
🫠 “Do I need to order more summer?”
🫠 “Why am I shopping for sweaters when it’s 95° outside?” 😂
🫠 “Christmas buying starts WHEN?!”
A few things nobody tells you about owning a boutique:
✨You’re buying for the next season while everyone is still enjoying the current one.
✨ A “quick” store reset is NEVER quick.
✨ New arrivals mean steaming, tagging, pricing, organizing, photographing and posting… before they ever hit the floor.
✨ A slow sales day doesn’t mean a slow work day.
✨ Your brain is basically running 47 tabs at all times. 😂
But here’s the good news…
THE J MONTHS DON’T LAST FOREVER! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
And you know what? FALL is when we opened our store and it holds a special place in our hearts! 🍂🤎
We’re already working behind the scenes getting ready for new colors, textures, denim, sweaters, layers and ALL the cozy fall vibes!
Fall is coming to Blush + Velvet, and we are SO excited! 🤗
Stay tuned for NEW FALL ARRIVALS + our upcoming store reset. We can’t wait to show you what’s coming!
To all our fellow small business owners…
WE made it through another summer season! 😅You know! 😂❤️
AND to our customers…Thank you for supporting Blush + Velvet through every season. Shopping small truly makes a difference and we are so grateful! 🫶🫶🫶
