A Day in the Life of the Breezies Girls

Winter time at the Breezies office brings back many frigid memories.  We spent two winters working in a renovated barn with nests of newborn mice and a snake dangling over the printer.  We would huddle and fight over time spent in front of space heaters, and although we are now working in offices with heat, we still battle over prime real estate in front of the fireplace.

A normal day starts at 9AM.  We usually have 15-20 minutes of catch up time on the couches, which surprisingly for seeing each other for at least 12 hours a day/6 days a week, we manage to come up with plenty to discuss.  Then we all disperse to our computers where we start going through the overnight emails from overseas, along with QVC’s day beginning.  We are usually waiting impatiently for UPS to deliver fit samples, color approvals, TOP’s, or prototypes for presentation; this will arrive right before we start taking lunch orders at 10:30. 


Lunch is often one of the biggest challenges throughout the day.  Whenever we can all decide on one place to order from it is considered a miracle.  We all gather around the “Round Table” with our take out orders of Chinese, Diner, Italian, or sandwiches and have our best ideas and discussions of the day.
