Yes sir may I help today? I asked a costumerYes please, I have a business party to attend this weekend and I don't want to dress in my normal! He said pointing to his clothes he was wearing. Which was some gray slacks and a white down with a tie pretty plain.
Any looks you wanna try? I asked
Something more urban chic i wanna impress someone. I really like her and this will be our first time hang out outside of the office. He said
Well let me put something together for you, I'll be right back I told him.
I walked off doing my thing. I first guess his age he look like his in his early 30s. He's a clean cut kind of guy. He wants to look different. I wonder if he wants to do slacks or jeans?
Excuse me sir, were you going for slacks or jeans kind of look?
Slacks please, he told me
Ok great I have some ideas. I walked around until I found the perfect outfit. I walked back over to where I left him and asked him to try this on.
8 minutes later a very different man came outta that dressing room.
Wow Ms. You really out did yourself! He said
You look very nice. He was a slim build very tall white male. So I went with a pair of fitted navy blue slacks that cuffed at the ankles with a light blue button down, blue graphic design suspenders, a blue stripped white and tan bow tie and a navy blue blazer. I pair it with a tan all around short brim hat and some matching tan suede tie up slip on shoes. I did some minor adjustment to the finishing look and he was perfect.
Once he went back inside I told him I'll meet him at the register. He came out and I rung him up.
Your Total is $250 sir!
Here you are, he said while handing me 3 crisp hundred dollar bills.
Here's your change sir! I said handing him a fifty.
That's for you to keep sweet heart. Thanks for the help! He told me grabbing his bags!
Oh no, I can't take this! This is my job I'm suppose to help. I told him handing him the money back.
I will not take it, treat yourself to something nice! Niesha I'll be seeing you soon! I think you have yourself a personal shopper! He said walking outta my department. Wow this is the second one this week!
I've been working here for 3 weeks now. I like it here a lot it's alway busy. Unlike my store back home it's be busy sometimes. Here it's busy all the time. I'm doing so good here they asked me to open my schedule up more. I'm here 6 days a week Monday Thru Saturday 8am - 6pm. Most days I'm here until closing. I don't mind though I don't be doing nothing at Rah's. Shes either at work or at her new boyfriends house. The guy she was dancing with that night we went out. Robert, they have been dating every since.
Every time I think of that night it gives me goose bumps. It was 3 dudes murdered that night and 4 people injured. I haven't heard from black since no one has I don't even know if he's one of those people they found dead or not. I've called him twice and he haven't answered. I just prayed for him and kept it moving.
When I am off I've been chilling with Mercedes, Bels and Erick! They're really cool peoples. We all hang at Erick Loft in upper east side of Manhattan. I even say at his house some nights when I leave work late. Exactly most nights, I have extra clothes there and everything. His husband Richard is a old white man. But she's so queer it's not even funny! Lol but I love him he shows us so much respect. He wants me to work at his company designing manikin. I would love to do it but it's more of a permanent thing. So school would have to be put on the back burner. It's a lot of traveling involve. He said with my style I could do fashion with out a degree. He might be right but I gotta get these papers for my momma. I know she'll kill me if I don't! Lol
