Yeah! I should have asked her if she's brought some! Damn! Why didn't I think of that?

I was tempted to ask her how many of their customers were men buying stuff for themselves, but the discussion went in other directions and it wouldn't have been appropriate to refocus it.

What was she wearing?

What was she wearing?

Well, she didn't reveal her lingerie :), but she was fashionably, if very conservatively, dressed. She is, after all, the CEO of a multi-million dollar company.

She was dressed all in black, with a black blouse and a black scarf. A very tasteful outfit.

She said that someone at a different dinner asked her if she got to work with the models and she said that she certainly did, that she was always working with profit models, marketing models, strategic growth models, oh, yeah, and the catalog models.

She probably does wear FOH. I'm sure she gets the employee discount.

She said that VS and FOH were very different types of businesses. That VS is essentially a branded department store while FOH is intended to be more like a boutique.
