Transitions

People always ask what kind of clothes do you I carry.  What is the demographic of the Style Truck? It’s not really an age group.  Style Truck carries brands that are about style, comfort, quality and about flexibility.  We like clothes that can go from day to night by just making a few adjustments.  So, for that matter, many of our items can be worn in all seasons. Layering or mixing and matching pieces makes this possible.  Simple, right?  Some people always say “I can’t put pieces together” or “I would have never thought of pairing these two things together” but it really doesn’t have to be difficult. You can always wear heavier pants/skirt or leggings (oh that’s a hot topic, for another blog) and wear with a tank or lighter weight tunic and keep your sweater/poncho/wrap close by!  Instead of wearing a heavy scarf, throw on a summer scarf.  We love our new ones!

          

One reason I love dresses – no creative juices needed.  Throw it on! It can be as simple as wearing it with tights and boots and a cardigan or blazer to wearing it with sandals and a lighter wrap and different jewelry.  I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard a customer say that they don’t wear dresses.  Maybe it goes back to childhood that a dress was for special occasions but in reality, it’s one of the easiest pieces for all ages and body shapes.  I really wish more people would try.  Style Truck has only had a few events with the new Spring/Summer options and there are a couple of pieces that were sold to me as tunics but customers have seen them as dresses!  Whatever works!  As long as the length is proper – work it!

Is it a dress? Is it a tunic? Yes!

So…….don’t pack up your tights or cardigans or light weight boots (wear them without tights for a springish style) quite yet.  Splash it up with a color as a base and your set.

On that note, I think I will go get a Pedi just in case I want to ditch the boots later today!

 

PS. I wrote this before this past weekend where I had three events.  One I was a drowned rat, a second one where there was sleet and I had a chill I couldn’t shake, and the third one was a typical (is there such a thing in Pittsburgh?) spring day.  I wasn’t dressed appropriately for any of them – go figure!

Girl’s Night Out

girls nights out bannerA Girls’ Night Out (GNO) is defined as an evening spent outside of the home by a group of women, yet ironically, when I suggest a GNO I mean for the girls to stay home!  What? Well, our version of a GNO means staying in with your besties and shopping in style – in Style Truck that is!

Having the Style Truck pull up to your house can ease the stress of planning an event.  It really can elevate your typical Home Party. There isn’t a cost associated with it; all I ask is for you to have a minimum of five gal pals.  Style Truck will come to you, a bottle of wine in hand, and within an hour, you’ll have a specialty boutique at your door!

Every GNO is different.  The Truck can pull in your driveway and set up there, roll racks in your garage, game room, and patio or carry things inside.  We’ve dealt with rain, sleet, snow, and wind! We are most flexible so no worries there.  Some hosts use this night as a way of catching up with long lost friends with fashion, style and sales being the bond that ties the guests together.  It is always fun to see friends make selections for others in the group.  “This looks just like you” or “this looks something you’d wear” are often heard.  Often times it gets the non shopper out of their shell.  It gets you to try something you might not typically look at and can totally change a perspective.  It is almost reminiscent of a slumber party – the original Home Party!

So if you’re within 25 miles of Pittsburgh, we can truck to your party. If more than that, we will just charge for gas for the extra miles.  AND, we haven’t mentioned the benefit of hosting!  As a hostess, you receive a discount of 10% of the total sales – meaning you get a great deal on some really great fashions.

The Style Truck is available for you! We can assist with the invitations and promotions with an email or Facebook promotion. All you have to do is complete the form found on our website: http://style.btosandbox.com/find-the-truck/or call 412. 204.6101 to reserve your date with the Truck and host your very own Girls’ Night Out!
