I have not been shopping for a while.Decided today was the day. I was in drab with panties under my pants. First stop, Fashion Bug. Greeted by SA, she said "just ask if you need help." Picked out Black Cuffed Capris and a print top. Next stop, J Jill. Again greeted by SA, but no other interaction. Picked out a pair of Grey Slacks and a sheer black blouse. At both stores I did not have the courage to ask if I could try on. Next stop, The Avenue. With large feet, shoes are a problems. Had seen the Sara pumps on their website. Walked in found my size paid and walked out. Decided it was lunch time. At lunch I decided that I could not consider it a successful day unless I had the courage to ask if I could try on.
Next stop, NY and Company. Walked in, two SA's talking and folding blouses. Walked over said hello. Told them that I was looking for an outfit that "I" could wear for work, thought to myself "not that I ever would." They said no problem. They asked what I was looking for, we talked a little about pants and capris and size. I then asked if each would pick out two outfits they liked. The went to work each picking out several pairs of slacks and tops.
They asked what shoes I would be wearing. With an arm load of cloths off to the fitting room I went. As I was trying on they
each continued to pass more items into the room. I decided on a pair of black wide leg slacks and a baby doll top. I handed the outfit to one of the SA's. As we were walking to the register, I spotted a skirt that caught my eye. I asked the SA if I could try it on. She said certainly and proceeded to find my size. She picked out another one and a couple of tops. Back to the fitting room. Tired on the first skirt that I liked . It did nothing for me, however the other one was fantastic. Black and White polka dots. Very soft and flowing. Matched it with a black sweater and white cami. When I left the fitting room, the SA had jewelry waiting for each outfit. Told her I decided on the skirt. She showed me how the jewelry would look. Made my purchases, thanked them and walked into the mall.
This ended up being a great day. I walked in asked for help, got great service and was treated with respect. I encourage all of you to give this a try. Get help from the SA's, thats what they are there for.

P.S. I did send an email to NY & Company to praise the SA's .
