These dresses are made to fit your waist and then gradually flare out towards the hem. A-line dresses are excellent for minimizing thighs, hips, and midsections while pulling the eyes to your bust. This style of dress is a great fit for almost any body type. There's a reason why so many brides settle on A-Line dresses for their big day! With plenty of varieties, this is a kind of dress that you can wear again and again.

Like the A-Line style, empire dresses are made to fit through your bust. Rather than creating a distinctly angular shape like the A-Line, the Empire style flows from the bust down. This is another kind of dress that fits many body types. From curvy to apple body shapes, the Empire draws focus to your bust and minimizes everything else. For lovely ladies on the shorter side, this style defines your silhouette, especially if you choose a maxi length dress.

A throwback to the roaring 20's style flapper dresses, Drop Waist dresses look best on lean, athletic bodies that don't have too many curves in the hip area. The key to pulling off a Drop Waist style dress is to ensure that it's not hugging you. This dress is best worn when it is able to hang freely on your body.

Sometimes called broadcloth tops, poplins have classic characteristics and are often woven with an over/under weave. This kind of weave gives more substance to your top while also giving you room to breathe. Poplin shirts are typically soft and smooth, and are great for everyday business attire, some formal occasions, and for certain ceremonies. Sweet and feminine, our Bruna poplin eyelet bib top features ruffles at the sleeves and an eyelet lace yoke at the front. Pair your poplin with your favorite pair of shorts or jeans for a contemporary, relaxed look.

For a dose of feminine fashion, be sure you add an off-the-shoulder top to your everyday wardrobe. A casual, sexy choice, off-the-shoulder tops have unique necklines that cut across your upper arms and chest, leaving your shoulders bare. The result is a flirty flash of skin, which elongates your neck and gives a relaxed, "daytime casual" look. Our Nola off-the-shoulder top pairs perfectly with shorts or even a flowy skirt and is hand-woven in Spain using Jacquard fabric.

North Mount Pleasant, S.C. (WCBD) – A plan to expand Highway 41 is moving forward after a grant was approved on Wednesday that would give additional funding to the Highway 41 corridor improvement project.
Congestion on major Highway 41 intersections has folks eager to see the busy road expanded. Meanwhile, there are others who live along the highway who are concerned about the expansion’s impacts on their community.
Many drivers say they’re happy about the recent approval to fund an expansion project to reduce congestion. However, some who live along the corridor are worried the highway will infringe on their properties.
“I don’t stay here but my grandmother does and other family members, so I think for them it would not be good. I think they would love the other side of things like everybody else, ‘woo no traffic,’” said Tyler Blasingame, a local along Highway 41.
On the other side of the highway near the popular shopping center, there are others like Sheila RIx who struggle to deal with the continuous traffic and hope to see changes.
“It has to be done, it’s a nightmare in the morning. You can be 45 minutes on that road, and it shouldn’t be, it’s 10 minutes,” said Rix.
The Highway 41 corridor improvement project includes plans to create a new two-lane parkway with changes to many intersections. The project also aims to improve US 17 and pedestrian bike lanes along the major roads. The president of the Phillips Community Association, Richard Habersham, said he knows a change needs to be made, but hopes they don’t go too far.
“So they got enough space to put that third lane like I said we want some changes, we do want some changes, but we don’t want that five-lane,” said Habersham
As planning for the project continues, a public hearing for property owners will be held on July 18th at the Charleston County Council Chambers to discuss rezoning. Habersham said as more milestones are met for the improvement project, he is concerned about the protection of property.
“So, they say they’re not going to take anyone’s house but if you’re walking up to your door and you’re walking right into the road, that’s the same thing,” said Habersham.
MOUNT PLEASANT, S.C. (WCBD)- A handful of businesses in The Bend at Carolina Park are open with locals responding well to one in particular.“It was incredibility busy our first week.

MOUNT PLEASANT, S.C. (WCBD)- A handful of businesses in The Bend at Carolina Park are open with locals responding well to one in particular.
“It was incredibility busy our first week. We’ve seen wonderful numbers. Literally our first week we had lines out the door,” said Webb Cheshire, the owner of The Front Porch Coffeehouse and Creamery.
Neighbors are thankful for the new shopping center which features several local businesses.
“It’s been wonderful to have things close by. We had Costco first. We’ve had the hospital here. We did get different amenities like the CVS Pharmacy down there. But we’ve not had individual small businesses,” said Tina Kaiser, who has lived in Carolina Park since 2017.
“I think it’s much needed. My wife and I came down here a year ago to see where we wanted to live. We love Mount Pleasant,” said Chad Anderson, who moved his family to Carolina Park in 2021.
The development comes as more homes are built along Faison Road in Carolina Park. Mount Pleasant Mayor Will Haynie says that the town’s job is to zone and promote the area.
“The free market will decide which things go where, what is needed and what the demand is for that area,” said Haynie.
Haynie says that a business that is good for the town provides jobs, a needed good or service and better livability for neighbors. Another consideration for the town is how to balance growth and environmental impact.
“Town Council doesn’t sit there and decide winners and losers. If somebody has the zoning to build something they go ahead and build it,” said Haynie. “As you saw with the vote about where hotels should go that’s how we make sure that the feel and the livability of Mount Pleasant stays where it is.”
The positive of new businesses that has neighbors talking is not having to drive down Highway 17 to find local options to shop and dine.
“I think we’re able to find more things closer to Carolina Park,” said Kaiser.
“I think all these stores like The Front Porch in this plaza is much needed in this area,” said Anderson. “I definitely appreciate the small business.”

The Sewee Indians had previously inhabited Mount Pleasant when the first European settlers under Captain Florentia O'Sullivan left England on July 6, 1680. The 2,340 acres that Captain O'Sullivan received contained both the island bearing his name and the land that would eventually become Mount Pleasant. This region was labeled "North Point" on the earliest maps available at the time. Mount Pleasant was essential in the Revolutionary War's first significant military victory. The area was formally constituted as the town of Mount Pleasant in 1837. After the Civil War, numerous freed slaves moved to the region. Robert Scanlon, one of them, went on to develop and lead Charleston Land Company.
