Recently my boyfriend and I went to my best friend`s wedding. I knew it was going to be a grand affair as soon as I saw the Wedding Invitation. So much time and care had been spent on the Wedding Invitation. It was beautifully worded and illustrated and showed the attention to detail of the bride and groom. They got married in a stately home which they had hired for the day and we were really intrigued and looking forward to seeing the house. However, it was a very long drive for us and, although the address was on the Wedding Invitation, we managed to get lost. Goodness, it was so stressful! At one point I really thought that we were not going to make the wedding at all. Eventually though the stately home came into view and we both gasped at the sheer splendour of the place. The wedding itself was absolutely amazing and the bride looked absolutely stunning. Afterwards, we all milled in the grounds of the stately home sipping champagne and I must say I felt like royalty. I have got to say it was the most sophisticated wedding I have ever been to.

As a small retailer one of the most important sides of my business is my shop window. I notice the interest and sales increase as soon as I change the mannequins in the window. I like to have a range of mannequins because although I sell largely lingerie I also do offer some lovely nightwear and swim wear. My window needs to reflect the range I stock as it brings in a different customer base. I started off using two mannequins in the window and dressing them once every ten days but have noticed that using three mannequins has increased sales. I keep the third mannequin dressed in night wear to ensure that even if the lingerie doesn`t appeal to everyone that they are aware of the full extent of my stock. I probably do still dress the mannequins every ten days and try to have them complement each other colour wise I think that having three mannequins has been a great business decision.
