<span style="color: #666666;">Hello again! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">May has arrived and is almost over, which means as each day comes and go, we are moving into the colder time of the year which got me thinking.... Catalogues and Coffee. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">Hang with me here... i tend to have a Grass Hopper Brain. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">Is there anything better then sitting in the sun on a cold winters day flicking through a catalogue and soaking up some real good Vitamin D.... Which now led me to.. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #a64d79; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: x-large;">WHY DOESN'T RHUBARB DO A CATALOGUE... </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">As the shopper for Rhubarb i am continuously searching for those unique, outrageous, different, FANTASTIC or just down right AWESOME products. I surely come across some weird and wonderful things and doing it all from home online, i tend to end up all over the world! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">Which now led me to another thought! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">It's impossible for me to provide you access to all these brilliant items i discover on my "window shopping" experiences, so i have come up with a FLIPPING good idea.. Flipping.. literally.. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">I feel like i almost need a drum roll here................. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">Each MONTH i will pick a supplier and create a catalogue to showcase all the great products they have to offer. Each MONTH this catalogue will be distributed a number of different ways. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">Our first catalogue showcases everything you may desire to display in your home. Picture Frames to Towel Racks to Antique Genuine Leather Bags to Glass etc etc. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-size: large;">It's all there! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">Being the owner, shopper, and the brains behind Rhubarb Boutique i tend to hold a great responsibility not to provide or offer you any products that i don't personally believe in. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">As much as i discover products from all over the globe, i tend to stick with an Australian Supplier. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">This Supplier is 1 of my favourites and i regularly stocked the shop with their products. Christmas, Birthday, or just making your house into a home. Their products are fantastic! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">I find that they are very well priced and brilliant quality! </span></div>

<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">Creating this catalogue got me thinking..... </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">Rhubarb is a small private owned business in a huge retail world. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">We compete with over sized, under priced and overseas business every day. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">It's not something i personally believe we will ever beat, but i do believe i can offer you all something different. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;">Personal service... which made me think... </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #999999;">If you are anything like me, you have a slight obsession with scarves and wearing them. Summer, Autumn, Spring but especially Winter! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #999999;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #999999;">Summer, i tend to do loose knots with light weight scarves. Winter i tend to wear more thick cotton scarves wrapped around so they become quite snuggly and warming.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #999999;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #c27ba0;">- Its amazing how warm a scarf can be, it all depends on how you wear it! - </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #c27ba0;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #999999;"><span style="background-color: white;">I have put together a few snap shots on different ways that i tend to wear my scarves. The scarf i used for these pictures can be purchased from <a href="http://www.rhubarbboutique.com.au/" target="_blank">Rhubarb Boutique</a>. The scarf is a silk scarf, i chose this type so it was easy to see the knots, twists and turns. </span></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #999999;">When it comes to your scarves, get creative. There is never a right or wrong way on how you should wear them, and this is why i love to have a collection! They dress any "basic" casual outfit up, and often just exactly what the outfit needs to give it that finished look. </span></div>

<span style="color: #999999;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #999999;">You will notice, that i added some flowers to accessorise a basic knot, or give the braid a tad more flare! If you don't have an oversized flower, perhaps a nice brooch, or use a costume ring to gather it together. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999; font-size: small;">Christmas is exactly </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #bf9000; font-size: large;">14</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999; font-size: small;"> days away. I would expect business to be booming, however sadly its quite the opposite. As a Small Business owner, in a small remote rural town i am feeling the major impacts of online shopping and the effects it is having on my own business. </span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999; font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999;">Don't get me wrong, i don't condone ALL online shopping, Rhubarb does online trade, however we are a small business and the profits go towards our bills in store and to provide new stock, not to mention our income. I am all for supporting Australian Businesses whether it is online or in store. </span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999;">I am as guilty as the next for purchasing online from a major organisation such as Amazon etc, however i could count on 1 hand how many times i have and it was most likely because i couldn't get it elsewhere. I am the type of person "I want it and i want it yesterday" which makes it hard living in a remote town which is 2.5 hours away from a major city, so again there is another reason to do online shopping. When did we become so impatient and lazy? </span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999;">I posted a status on our <a href="http://www.facebook.com/rhubarbboutique" target="_blank">Facebook </a>page yesterday about this and had such great response and feedback. A particular lady stated that she is 100% guilty of doing her Christmas shopping online this year but simply because she had a toddler that was near impossible to face it in the shopping centre which she lives 2 hours from and would have to do a round trip in the day. I totally get that and understand why she would go that way, however this is what is starting to kill the small businesses. She didn't state if she purchased from Australian Businesses or major organisation, but she did also state that is was simply and purely because it was easier and less hassle to do so and she did her shopping in Rockhampton throughout the year. </span></div>

I spent the weekend in Rockhampton and i remember 4 or 5 years ago it was absolute CHAOS to go to Rocky from about November onwards to do the shopping, and every year we would say "i am going to be much more organised next year and do shopping earlier or throughout the year" and every year we would face the major crowds. Sadly this year was no different then any other weekend in Rocky, well that i noticed. Malls, Shopping Centres and Shops were all sadly quiet. I spoke to a few owners as i was purchasing my Christmas Gifts and we discussed how quiet the trade was and how scary it is. Without them knowing i was also a small business owner they would comment that they are finding people are doing a lot more online trade.</span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999;">As a business owner, i don't completely blame people for wanting to avoid the Christmas rush and Chaos in the stores, so we as the owners need to think what we can do to get the customers back in our doors and how to make it easier for them. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #741b47; font-size: large;">So i ask you if you have any feedback please comment and let us know. ALL feedback is welcome! </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999; font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999; font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">As the manager of this fashion store, i love seeing every human body create their own style in "fashion". We each have a different understanding what is fashionable and whats not. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999; font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">As ladies reach a certain age, we tend to be more fragile about their body, what they wear and what is shown. "One persons long is one persons short". I giggle quote often when a customer comes in looking for a certain something and they inform me they don't like anything shorter then here or they have to hide this and that. Its funny what we all become self conscious of. When i say i giggle, i giggle in a way that we all have bits we think that should be hidden from the world and i know for a fact, some of those bits you are hiding, someone would love to have to show!Some Ladies prefer to have knee length dresses, sleeves, or pants. Its what we feel comfortable in that we wear with pride and confidence.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999; font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I am guilty of it as well and I'm only 23! When it comes time to order the stock for the NEXT season, i sometimes struggle with the upcoming fashion. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999; font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I am a size 10 sometimes an 8 and this often works against me. In the store that is, i tend to find people don't quite take me serious when I'm giving advise on a size 14-16 and what looks good. I actually admire how clothing looks on a healthy size 14 /16 and i personally prefer some of today's fashion pieces on these ladies.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999; font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I don't get to head down to the label showings and trade fairs as often as i would like or need to, so i find myself always ordering out of a catalogue or any form of images sent to me from my supplier.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"> Its so very hard to pic and choose what to purchase from these images for a number of reasons.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><i>Whats it feel like? </i></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><i>How does it really sit if your not posing? </i></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><i>Looks great on a size 8 6ft model but what about a 5ft size 14?</i></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"> Most of my customers are sizes 10-16, so i often struggle with this and trying to figure out what is going to sell and compliment all body shapes! I sometimes get it wrong, and don't order enough or too much!</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I often comment that if i was to too a designing degree in fashion, i would design a plus size range and in the mid $$ range. I am constantly on the look out for a great plus size range that isn't too mature or too expensive. </span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999;">As you probably read in my last post </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #741b47;"><a href="http://rhubarbboutique.blogspot.com.au/2012/09/my-mr-rhubarb-right.html" target="_blank">My Mr Rhubarb Right</a>,</span> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999;">that i am a Bride to Be, and this means we must locate a Mother of the Bride and Mother of the Groom outfit. Again this has started to become a challenge, everything is either too old, far too expensive or overseas. Now i am a very big believe in you buy cheap you buy twice, so when i say far too expensive I'm talking $800 - $1000. Again we each have a different opinion on what "look" the MOB or MOG is. </span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999; font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Rhubarb Boutique likes to stock a mid range market in store, and this is simply my personal choice. From owning Rhubarb i see so many customers walk away because they can't justify spending the money (and that is fine, as we are all in a financial position we don't really like to be in)</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;"> <i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">but ladies if there is 1 piece of advice i can give you when you are shopping for your outfit, stay true to you and spend a little bit more for the quality. You will find it washes so much better and last so much longer. If you can't afford to purchase today's fashion pieces, purchase neutral items and splurge on accessories every now and then.</span></i></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><i> </i></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999;">Accessories are a great additive to an outfit. You don't have to spend a lot of money on them, but not only that, when we accessorise that's when we tend to put our own </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;">YOUnique</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999;"> style to the outfit. </span></span><br />

It's such a great time. It gives Rhubarb a chance to tell her story and explain a little more about the products we sell. We have also been very privileged to attend Fundraising events, Community events and Sporting events such as Campdrafts etc. </span><br />
