Vanity's
After her conversation with Lisa, Sandra diverts her attention to the files in front of her. There's the magazine issue, she needs to look down before the publishing. There are also bunch of photos she needs to approve before putting them in the next issue. Meetings are non-stop. Lots of advertising deals and proposals are all piled up on her desk. And she needs to go over each, so she could choose the best for the magazines. As the Editor in chief, everything needs to pass by her. She's very careful with the selection of every fashion collection. Every detail is important to her.
"Ma'am sorry to interrupt you, but the board needs your approval for the 2015 summer collection po. And you have two consecutive meetings to attend this morning."
Her secretary, Andrea, gets her attention when she reminds her about the schedule. She is holding a little pad, ready to take down notes in case Sandra begins ranting stuffs.
"Tell them to get ready. I'll be there in five minutes"

Sandra is all up for the rendezvous and heads to the meeting room. Not in the mood to greet the board, she takes her seat and gives them the approval to start already.
She's not in a good mood, and basically employees are not quite happy with it. Everyone would be all messed up after the day. They knew it. She would be hard on them, and that makes the staff delirious and frightened. Nobody wants to see Sandra Carino angry. And nobody shouldn't mess with her. If you did, then you're dead.
(The designer presenting his designs)
Sandra: No. And I've seen all this before. (disappointed about the presentation)
Lisa: Jacob is trying to reinvent the drop waist, so--
Sandra: Where are all the other dresses?
Jacob: We have some right here (the designer abruptly gets the dresses nervously)
Lisa: It's very interesting, I believe.
Sandra: No. No, I just- It's just baffling to me. Why is it so impossible to put together a decent run-through? You people have had hours and hours to prepare. It's just so confusing to me. Where are the advertisers? (She takes a look at them and she's not liking it)
Jacob: We have some pieces from Le Chateau
Lisa: How about the Club Monaco?
Sandra: We need more, don't we? Oh. This is- This might be- What do you think of... (She sees a dress that is quite appealing to her)
Lisa: Yeah. Well, you know me. Give me a full ballerina skirt and a hint of saloon and I'm on board. (Lisa seconds the motion)
Sandra: Where are the belts for this dre- Why is no one ready? (Irritated and so the staff jump out of their seats and uneasily search for the belts)
Jacob: Here. It's a tough call. They're so different.
Sandra: And this layout for the Winter Wonderland spread. Not wonderful yet. (frown face)
Sandra: What about Testino? Where are we on that? (rather intimidating)
Lisa: Gwyneth Northon's doing some very sculptural suits. So I suggested that, uh, Nick shoot them at the Fort Santiago.
Sandra: Perfect. Thank God somebody came to work today. (relieved)
She leaves her seat and has decided not to continue with the presentation. "Lisa, I leave the work for you here. I just need to attend my next
meeting."
