your shoes. Where did you get them from?” Chloe said to the girl looking through the racks in Sabriya’s boutique.
“Oh, thank you. I got them from Macy’s. On sale for one hundred and five dollars.” The girl said looking at her 5-inch Tomato red Jessica Simpson shoes.
“What! I need to go check Macy’s out. I haven’t been there in so long.”
“Yes girl, when it comes to shoes, I can shop. I wish I could say the same about dresses,” the girl sighed while picking up one of Sabriya’s summer release dresses.
“Do you want help? I’m great when it comes to dressing and if you don’t like my style, my girl Shanice can always help.”
“Thank you. That should be good because I don’t know where to start,” the girl smiled.
“First off, summer time already passed so we need to get out of this section unless you’re trying to shop for next summer.”
“That is so true.”
“So what’s the occasion? Anything special?”
“My boyfriend is taking me to his friend’s birthday party.”
“Well I have some good choices for you, let me introduce you to my friends.
Chloe walked the unknown girl over to the counter where Shanice and Sabriya stood laughing. Shanice seen Chloe walking with the girl first and then tapped Sabriya to announce their arrival.
“Briya and Sha, I want y’all to meet somebody.”
“Hey, my name is Samara.”
“I’m Shanice, nice to meet you.”
“Sabriya. I love the shoes.”
“Thank you, nice to meet you too,” Samara said to Shanice and Chloe.
“Samara is looking for a dress to wear to her boyfriend’s friend party.”
“Do you know what kind of dress you want?”
“Nothing too fancy, nothing simple. Get where I’m going?” Sabriya asked.
“I’m not sure. I think he said next Saturday or Sunday.”
“Well I just got a shipment of my new designs if you want to try it out,” Sabriya offered.
“Oh my god. You’re the owner of Styles by S,” Samara said putting two and two together.
“Last time I checked,” Sabriya laughed.
“I love your clothes. I would love to try it out,” Samara smiled.
“Okay, give me a second to go in the back. Sha come help me pick out some options.”
Sabriya and Sha came back out with a handful of clothes after spending time looking in the back for some options for Samara to try on. There were around nine dresses each with different styles. Samara chose her favorite three dresses out of the bunch that Sabriya showed her. She instantly fell in love with the unique black dress that was long in the back and short in the front. Right in the middle of the back of the dress, there was a heart shape cut out surrounded by diamonds. She also loved the long sleeve plain blue dress. She figured either one of them dresses could be the perfect dress to wear on her outing with Kiyan until she seen a typical short turquoise party dress with three-fourth quarter sleeves. She knew she had the perfect shoes to go with each of the dresses but she just bought the cutest black bootie heels to go with the turquoise dress.
After spending around two hours in Styles by S boutique with the girls, Samara was satisfied with her purchases but she secretly wished she had friends like Shanice, Chloe and Sabriya. She wasted no time telling the girls how she felt.
“Y’all were cool to hang around,” Samara turned back to the girls.
“You were cool too because to be honest I can’t stand too many females,” Chloe spoke up.
“You look really familiar. Like I seen you somewhere before,” Samara said to Shanice.
“Really? I know I haven’t seen you before because I never forget a face.” Shanice responded.
“Yeah, I don’t know right now but you do look familiar.”
“I don’t get that too much unless it’s from a dude trying to spit game,” Sha laughed.
“I don’t know where I’ve seen you before but I’ll probably figure it out.”
Here take down my number just in case you need more dresses sometimes. I style people too.” Sabriya said before reciting her number for Samara.
“That’s awesome. I will definitely give you a call. I would love to hang out with y’all again.” Samara said.
“That’s cool. It’s two more people included in this crazy bunch, but they slept in this morning so you’ll get to meet them whenever we decide to go out.” Chloe said.
“Okay. Y’all can get my number from Sabriya and we can set something up. It was really nice to meet y’all.” Samara said.
“It was nice meeting you too. Come again.” Sabriya said
