The Latest @ Coeur

We saw a great quote recently.  It said there is a big difference between the first day of spring and the first spring day! Now we may not know when it is going to warm up but one thing we do know is that, regardless of the weather, in 28 days Boston is going to be the place to be!

 

Can you believe that it is mid-March already? That means, spring is (theoretically) just around the corner. We also think it means that someone needs to let Mother Nature know that she can release her icy grip on a good bit of the country.

True story. When I was in grade school, we had to memorize two passages and recite them every other Thursday in class. The first time we did this, I stayed up the night before and practiced.

We may have mentioned this, but we absolutely love sharing news about Coeur’s customers, ambassadors, pros, and friends. Oh, and just to be clear, “friends” is not a mutually exclusive category.

Sometimes people use the two terms Fashion and Style interchangeably but I think there is a distinct difference between the two. Yves Saint Laurent said it best when he said “Fashions fade, style is eternal”. At Coeur, we try very hard to bring an element of style to our gear.

I really can’t stay. But Baby, it’s cold outside. I’ve got to go away. But Baby, it’s cold outside.

Do you remember that song? It’s been around for a long time and has been sung as a duet by everyone from Esther Williams & Ricardo Montalban to Seth McFarlane & Sara Bareilles.

We had a terrifically interesting debate at Coeur prior to rolling out our 2015 Line of Triathlon Clothing. We set out to create the highest quality and cutest triathlon suits in the market period.

Once, a very wise individual told me that more often than not, people made decisions based on emotion and then they looked for the facts to justify their position. He tried his dead level best to make sure I knew that "People are emotional beings." 

That’s part of the reason we’re so excited about our new designs for 2015. We’re pleased to have four new beautiful designs that provide a range of options across the color palate. 

 

Recently, we had company strategy meeting and spent time discussing what we stood for as a company. We’ve tried to be fairly vocal about our desire to encourage people to live a lifestyle of health and fitness and we think we talk and blog about it a lot (hopefully, we’re not over doing it).

Happy Tuesday everyone! We hope you all had a great holiday weekend. As a small business, we end up working most of the weekends but it’s not a chore because we did go for a run on Sunday morning. Plus, the atmosphere in the office is decidedly more relaxed than during the week
