It all starts at the waist:
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.

Unless you're feeling extra sassy, chances are you're wearing a top at this very moment. Tops are garments that cover the top half of your body. At Copper Penny, we have an endless selection of tops in a wide range of styles - from basic tees to blouses and everything in between.

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.

Great for wearing solo or layered over a camisole or tank top, wrap tops are lightweight, versatile, and great for many different occasions.

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.

PICKENS COUNTY, S.C. (WSPA) – A landfill site in Pickens County is expanding.
While the site’s director said more space is needed, at least one member of county council said there may be a better option.
The vote to expand the landfill, located on Old Liberty Road, off Highway 93, passed in council with a vote of 4-2.
Surveys show the Pickens County C&D Landfill is running out of space. The expansion will add nearly 69 acres.
The site’s director, Steve Raines, said this will give the county about 25-30 years of new space.
“So far we have spent about $15 million,” said Pickens County Councilman Alex Saitta.
County leaders said in 2015 the site ran out of space and closing it was going to cost millions of dollars.
The county tried to contract with a private company for another site, but they then learned the company was going to dump coal ash they shut down that plan, leading to a battle in court.
County government then settled with the private company for $7 million for them to finish the landfill.
“The plan was they were going to take all the waste that we have and truck it to Greenville,” Saitta said. “We spent oodles of money on trucks and trailers and loading stations. We did that about two years, county administration comes to council and says this is way too expensive, we need a new plan.”
A few months later, Saitta said the county went back to their original plan: to spend millions of dollars resuscitating the old landfill.
“By having our landfill here and our fate in our own hands, we have reduced our trucking cost,” said Pickens County Director of Solid Waste Steve Raines. “We have reduced our manpower costs. We are recovering metals that used to go into the ground and now we are sending those off to recycling centers. So, we are doing better things for the environment as well as saving money for the taxpayer.”
Saitta voted no on the expansion, hoping the county would buy new landfill.
Raines, however, said expanding the original site is the best option, and benefits taxpayers as the site is working to cut costs from almost $69/ton to less than $10.
Raines said he and his crew are working as hard as they can to make the space last as long as possible.
“Our numbers have gone up drastically over the last three years,” Raines said. “I have been here for 3.5 years now, and I have seen our numbers go up almost 350% with what’s coming in.”
The permitting process is expected to take up to 18 months.
Raines urged the public to buy more items that are multi-use or reusable to help combat the problem.

South Carolina Highway 183 in Pickens and Greenville County is considered one of the most dangerous thoroughfares in the state.
It is busy, crowded and caters to a growing population. Local and state authorities say new funding will make the road safer.
Earlier this week, the South Carolina State Infrastructure Bank (SIB) granted $44.7 million to improve S.C. Highway 183.
The funding will aid two projects aimed at extending and widening two separate sections of the highway. Local authorities in Pickens County will shepherd a project that will widen S.C. 183 into four lanes in Pickens County. Greenville-Pickens Area Transportation Study will oversee another project that will fund the construction costs of improving the S.C. 153 extension to S.C. 183. The projects are expected to have a 10-year timeline.
Five-year crash data, per the S.C. Dept. of Transportation, showed the six-mile stretch of S.C. 183 in Pickens County was a site for 288 crashes, 84 injuries and seven fatalities. A traffic study also showed the highway was expected to see a 113% increase in traffic from 2010 to 2035. Meanwhile, the S.C. 153 extension saw 62 crashes and 18 injuries in the last five years.
Easley lawmaker Neal Collins said the $44.7 million funding was crucial to improve the highway as the total project is slated to cost $104.7 million, as per the SIB application.
SC politics:Here's how the state budget could boost Greenville, Spartanburg downtowns.
Local authorities and state lawmakers had been eyeing SIB funding since 2016. A previous funding application in 2018 was denied as the bank required an adequate funding match from local authorities.
"They basically told us we needed to have a better package," Collins said. "The more money the local authorities could match, the better."
To fix that issue, the Pickens County Council issued a $12.7 million bond to fund the costs of expansion in addition to a $10 million allocation in the state budget this year. Meanwhile, the Greenville-Pickens Area Transportation Study, which covers portions of Greenville, Pickens as well as Anderson, Laurens, and Spartanburg counties, is on track to provide $28 million.
Put together a combination of state and local government effort will bring in about $95 million to improve the highway.
"The collective effort on this was amazing," Collins continued.
