Must Have - Sexy Back

This is one of our newest items in the store. Basically, it is a strapless bra that has a lace back to it. The point being if you have a low backed shirt, a strapless dress or even something sheer in the back, any onlooker will see the girly lace of your Sexy Back bra instead of a regular back of a bra. All of us at the store are dying for one! They really are the coolest, so come check them out!

Quote of the Day

When the going gets tough, the tough go shopping!

Happy Earth Day!!!

Happy Earth Day to everyone! Come into the store at Lexington Green today and get a free seedling with a purchase of any item. The seedlings are Eastern Redbuds and Flowering Dogwoods. So, come on in and help us celebrate!

Lets Celebrate!

In celebration of Earth Day tomorrow...here are a few facts about the Earth that we think our interesting and good to know!

- Recycling one aluminum can saves enough energy to watch a TV for three hours -it's equivalent to half a gallon of gasoline.
- If every newspaper was recycled, we could save about 250,000 trees each year. Unfortunately only 27% of all American newspapers are recycled.
- April 22 is the first official day of Spring in the Northern Hemisphere and of Fall in the Southern hemisphere and was chosen to be Earth Day for this reason.

For a full list of facts about Earth Day, visit here.

The September Issue

Last night, I watched an entertaining and interesting documentary on Vogue's Editor in Chief, Anna Wintour. This documentary explored the interworkings of Vogue and showed just a glimpse of the fashion world. From the runways of Paris to photo shoots in Rome, this film was both exciting and fascinating. It was interesting to see the fashion world through the eyes of Anna Wintour and another editor, Grace Coddington. If you are in to high fashion, models and magazines, check it out! I will tell you one thing, I would not want to get on Anna Wintour's bad side!
