| - Bumpin' desigual to five stars because of outstanding service. I am definitely recognized by some of the sales associates as I pounce in - "back for more? we DID just get new stuff in since you were last here..."
The reason I came in today was different. Desigual has an amigo card where you earn points for purchases (free to have, like a loyalty card) and twice a year, they offer friends and family nights 20% discount on full-priced items in the new collection. They are currently running a $5 off per item promotion for non-amigo holders, but given this is pricier Spanish fashion, I knew this discount was too good to pass up.
I was bummed to see it was only offered in Vegas on the holiest day of the year for me, though different cities have different friends and family nights. I popped into the store prior to the date to discuss with the store manager getting an alternate time to use the discount. She told me she had to investigate with her manager in Spain, but promised to contact me. We kept in touch via e-mail and she called me - it took almost 2 weeks, but she was able to work with me. I told her the date I could come in and she promised the assistant manager would expect me today.
I walked in and shook his hand, and tried on tons of stuff before selecting a skirt from the new La Croix line (high-waisted poofy pencil skirt), plus a grey and red skirt, then an angled zipper multicolored sweater.
Shopping here is fun in this colorful, dark fashion sanctuary. I give props to manager Ranza for making this possible and I am glad I have found a great spot to find clothes that fit my bright, colorful, and fun personality!
