Resort Shop: El says maybe that wasn't such a good idea?


Ad-Free Blog 
It's been a very busy Spring season at the Resort Shop in the lower level of Vickie's Vintage. EL, the Assitant Manager,  is making having photos taken for the website! 

EL: This would be a great opening shot, clothes equipment, swimsuits and lots of color.

Ian (photographer): EL, you are so short, maybe we should stand you on a box. 

EL: Thanks, I know I'm short. I think I have a better idea!

EL: These heeled skates will give me almost four inches. I'll just slip them on!

EL: Hey just take the video!  Hi, I'm EL here in the Resort Shop at Vickie's Vintage on the near northside of Chicago.

EL: (zips across the floor and twirl turns to face the camera)....WHOOOPSEY!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Ian: ARE YOU OKAY? (laughing)

EL: I suppose you got that on camera. Dang, maybe this isn't such a good idea!

Ian: Well, compose yourself, and I'll sort through the footage and see what we need.

EL: Well, that was humiliating!


barbieoldnewgreenredo

EL: I'll just put these back on the shelf.

Ian: Okay, how about a comment on skating?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

EL: Scowling...how about we call skating done! 

Ian: (Pans the camera) Give me a wrap up line...!

barbieoldnewgreenredo

EL:"It's always great shopping at Vickie's Resort Shop! Phone and website orders are welcome, too. But
Come on down for the best selections for SUMMER 
NOW to Vickie's on the Near Northside.


EL: You better edit out my bare feet! 

Ian: Well, I for sure need to edit out that scowl.  Um, how about dinner.

EL: Sure, see you at eight. And, I won't be wearing skates.

LATER:  EL readies the shop for closing.

Russ: Say, EL, are you still open?

barbieoldnewgreenredo

EL: Sure, Mr. Pittman. What can I help you with. (rubbing her sore bum)

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Russ: I'm on a mission, I'm looking for some extra work boots. It's been so wet, I have three pair drying out...nothin's worse than wet boots.

barbieoldnewgreenredo

EL: What size? 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Russ: Yea, here's the hard part...14E. 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

EL: Not  here, but let me check with Vickie tomorrow. She's been working on the warehouse and I know we packed away lots of boots from winter. 

ELL: Just give me your information and I'll get back to you tomorrow. Vickie's gone for the day. So, any color or style? 

barbieoldnewgreenredo

Russ: Just dry...and no, I'm not particular when it comes to working in concrete or mud. (Chuckles) Thanks, EL. Just let me know, soon if you can. We have rain tomorrow again, but we have to work in it.

Barbie Movie is EVERYWHERE and all the Goodies!

Still Ad-Free 

This morning on GMA, they did a video from Chicago of the Pop-Up Barbie Cafe, downtown on Fulton St. and lots of clips and info about the current Barbie Mania and the Movie taking over Social Media.

ABC Good Morning America

GMA VIDEO HERE: Barbie Buzz Good Morning America 7/5/23. definitely a fun watch!

ABC Good Morning America

Mark did a great job at the pop-up Cafe and the entire piece was colorful, fun, as well as informative.

ABC Good Morning America


I guess I'm just going to have to get used to the PINK for awhile. There is actually a shortage of Barbie Pink paint across the nation...that is a phenomena!

ABC Good Morning America

I did a few screen shots ---all from ABC and the noted above video.

ABC Good Morning America

At the Cafe some Roller Skaters did some great tricks all dressed with some pink!

ABC Good Morning America

A few clips from the GMA piece were of the trailers of the movie....they are so funny!

ABC Good Morning America

This shot came out months ago and cracks me up every time I see it! Barbie and Ken rollerblading in the real world of 2023...but they are still jammed up in the 1980's...LOL


ABC Good Morning America

"I Never go anywhere without them!" LOL
Ryan Gosling really is the perfect KEN--I'm going to try and duplicate his hair on the movie guy I ordered...it just needs that bit on the forehead!

ABC Good Morning America

The Barbie house B&B in California, where else could really handle all this. Apparently Christy Teigan and family stayed recently...so over the top!

ABC Good Morning America

Of course merchandising is everywhere---! Seems Mattel really got their YOUNG crew going on social media and cross-merchandising! 

It's fun and well, YOUTHFUL!
