Sales Stylist Profile | Jordan Ugalde

If you have ever come into our P.O.S.H.® showroom or called the office you were probably greeted by one of a few people.  And one of those people was most likely our Inside Sales Manager, Jordan!  She sits front and center and is always here to greet you with a smile as soon as you walk through the door. 

With a knack for what she does, it is apparent that Jordan makes the P.O.S.H.® experience enjoyable and seamless for our clients.  In the midst of a busy season, she took a few minutes to sit down to describe her style and some things to get to know her better!

What are your favorite pieces at P.O.S.H.®? I am a huge animal print lover, so the leopard print is my classic go-to pattern.  My second favorite pattern is the Exotic Bird by Charles Sadek.  It pairs well with pretty much any tabletop look!

What event that you have helped with is your favorite to date?: The Powers wedding at the Shady Oaks Country Club!  Beautiful floral, amazing tabletop and wonderful vendors!

Favorite part of your job?: My favorite part of my job is making people smile!  Helping my clients achieve the tabletop look they envision is most rewarding.

What trends are you seeing clients lean toward?: Rustic chic and why not! It is a class look.  Pair our new cross back chairs with any of the assorted vintage china or glassware and you are set!

Any tips for clients before they come to the showroom?: I love pictures or Pinterest boards!  Feel free to bring those in.  Swatches of linens you have selected or even swatches of bridesmaids’ dresses help as well!

PERSONAL

What is your personal style?: Although my desk is a mess (haha), I love a simple but elegant tabletop look!  Nothing speaks more to me than clean, crisp edges and simplified elegance.

Three things we don’t know about you:

1.       I graduated from the University of North Texas with a degree in criminal justice

Trends You Need To Know Translated Into Tabletop

Recently we stumbled across an article on MSN News under the Living and Home Décor section that read “The home décor trends you need to know” and while browsing through the pictures we couldn’t help but notice how relatable these trends are to a lot of our pieces here at P.O.S.H.®.

Since our day-to-day lives pretty much revolve around a few select things, P.O.S.H.® is definitely one of them.  We love to translate trends that we see on the runway, in home décor, and all around us into tabletop designs.  This is where we draw our inspiration from daily and why we love to share our ideas with you as well!  When we specifically saw this article, our minds wandered off to a few select pieces that we offer…

Stripes seem to constantly be in season and are very transitional.  Whether you implement them with your napkins, linens, china, or glassware; stripes are a great accent or main pattern to design around.

Florals are a really big statement this season.  There is something so fabulous about a great floral pattern that can really make a piece standout.  We suggest using a floral linen or china pattern and building around those pieces with solid colors.

A cane pattern can be very intricate and is very bold if we do say so ourselves.  Even though the pattern is bold, it is very do-able!  Because the pattern is bold, we say why not do it big.  We mean do the print in a bold color or accompanied by bold colors.

A very appropriate way to welcome spring is with birds.  When we think spring, we think of chirping birds in the background and there is no better way than to use a bird pattern or print when designing your table.

A graphic print makes us think of a 3D design, which it somewhat resembles after all.  Going with bold patterns can be a bold move, but one worth taking if you ask us!

This pattern is definitely a classic, whether it be the main focus or just an accent.  It is very similar to a lattice pattern and makes us think of the very preppy Palm Beach style.

Fish scales can be misinterpreted and make you think mermaid right off the bat.  But, there are a lot of ways that fish scales or the appearance of fish scales have seemed to make their way into design.
