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.

We only carry the most popular tops from the best brands and designers around the world.
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.

Our V-Neck Wrap SLV Top by Jayden is uber-popular at Copper Penny and the perfect choice for dressing down or dressing up. The choice is yours!

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.

Who doesn't love a good tank top?! Tank tops are lightweight, versatile, and equally great for lounging in the yard or running errands on weekends. Tank tops lend an air of simplicity to your outfit and can be styled in endless ways. Take our Velvet Heart Victory Tank, for instance.

PORT WENTWORTH, Ga. (WTOC) - One Port Wentworth woman was on the phone with her son when a tree fell onto the home that her son was in.
Julie Crawford, a mother of two, was so excited to be able to say that she officially paid off her home. A home that has now been crushed by a neighboring tree. She is heartbroken, but thankful that no one was hurt.
“The tree is in my kitchen…”
A moment Julie Crawford will remember for a lifetime.
“The next thing I know my son is saying, ‘Mom, Mom, it’s terrible that the wall is gone.’”
Crawford was on the phone with her son when it happened… a tree from the home next door fell onto her house destroying her kitchen.
After getting off the terrifying phone call with her son, Crawford raced home to see what was left of her home.
“Isn’t it awful… all of the stuff out of the cabinets and on the floor.”
Ripping through the side of her home, taking down powerlines, and crushing Christmas presents on the way down.
“Christmas bicycles, my son’s bicycles, my lawn mower...”
But in an isolating time, Julie wasn’t alone.
“I just can’t believe that they are just gonna come… oh here they are… here they come!”
Volunteers she knew from her work with Renegade Paws Rescue came to her rescue.
“I don’t know where to begin, and you guys are all here to help me… thank you so much.”
Shortly after, a crew from Ridgewood Roofing, a father-son excavating team responded to help assess the damage and remove the tree.
“I couldn’t be more thankful, I’m a nervous wreck, I don’t know what the future holds for me right now but all I know is that everyone is safe, and there are people to help me.”
Within a few hours, the tree was out of her house and the crew had covered the roof with a tarp.
Julie says that she and her two sons will be spending the night at a friend’s house.

BRENTWOOD, Tenn. & PORT WENTWORTH, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Interstate Health has opened a new clinic in Port Wentworth, Ga., to provide urgent care, primary care and occupational health services to commercial drivers, community members and the many transport professionals who frequent the region. Company leaders gathered with city officials, the Port Wentworth Chamber of Commerce, and other local leaders this week for a special ribbon cutting celebration to commemorate the grand opening of the clinic.
“Port Wentworth is a vibrant community serving one of the largest and fastest-growing ports in the country,” said Jeff Seraphine, Interstate Health chief executive officer (CEO). “As we continue to evaluate new locations where we can meaningfully bring our mission to life, the Port Fuel Center in Port Wentworth hits the mark. We are eager to serve the many drivers and other transport professionals who frequent the port, as well as the growing local community.”
Interstate Health Port Wentworth is a newly built, 2,100 square-foot clinic located on the Port Fuel Center property on the corner of Grange Road and Georgia Highway 21 near Interstate 95. The total investment in the facility exceeds $1 million and is expected to generate approximately 20 jobs in the community as its services grow.
“When we opened Port Fuel Center, we had a vision to serve our community and those who travel through – especially truck drivers going to and from the port – by creating an accessible option for basic needs like fuel, restrooms and food. When we met the Interstate Health team and heard their mission, there was clear alignment,” said Yash Desai, partner at Port Fuel Center. “We are proud to partner with Interstate Health opening this clinic on the Port Fuel Center property and are eager to watch the impact it makes.”
Interstate Health launched in November 2022 and has since acquired Occupational Health Center in Cookeville, Tenn., and opened a new clinic in Racine, Wis. The Port Wentworth clinic is the company’s first greenfield development and will serve as a model for future locations.
“Our city is growing, and further expanding the healthcare services available to all those in the area is necessary to sustain our growth,” said Port Wentworth Mayor Pro Tem Thomas Barbee. “On behalf of the City of Port Wentworth, we welcome Interstate Health to our community and congratulate them on the opening of this beautiful, state-of-the-art healthcare facility.”
Interstate Health Port Wentworth is now open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET and offers primary care, urgent care and occupational health services. This includes Department of Transportation and pre-employment physicals, preventative care and wellness visits, vaccines, medication management and more. A complete list of services and contact information can be found on Interstate Health’s website.

After a year, the City of Port Wentworth has lifted its industrial rezoning moratorium, once again allowing for applications that request to rezone land to industrial uses, such as for warehouses.
The expiration of the moratorium was contingent upon the city adopting the new zoning ordinance, which underwent a major overhaul for the last year and was approved during Thursday night's council meeting.

Take a look: Port Wentworth's new zoning ordinance
Last summer, the city hired third-party consultants, Horizon Community Planning, to review and revise the city's ordinance, which had received criticism from residents, developers and city staff alike about its inconsistencies and incomprehensibility. The industrial moratorium was enacted to prevent additional parcels of land from being zoned to industrial uses, a grievance echoed by Port Wentworth's residents for decades, while Horizon Community Planning revamped the city's zoning laws.
As part of that process, a steering committee was established last summer to work with Horizon. Also, the city held multiple public workshops, a developer roundtable, and stakeholder meetings along with the required public hearings held before both the Planning Commission and City Council.
The final draft of the new ordinance features greater clarity in terms of readability, a clearer site plan review process, an updated zoning map and other improvements.

More:Auditors question Port Wentworth's planning and zoning practices. Here's how council responded.
Local zoning laws provide standards for four main types of development: residential, agricultural, commercial and industrial (other categories for places like historic districts and major business districts also exist and vary from city to city). Zoning laws are important because they protect the health, safety and welfare of a city; protect property values; balance community goals with private property rights; and support a city’s comprehensive plan.
While local governments regularly amend the zoning ordinance as new developments are proposed, years of changing administrations and stopgap amendments have introduced inconsistencies. For example, guidelines on landscaping and parking designs are missing. Subjective wording such as “be of high quality” and “proper scale” are found throughout the ordinance, too.
For the law to be effective, it should clearly outline specific height and size requirements so that developments that fall under the same categories are consistent and predictable.
One of the major issues the audit pointed out is Port Wentworth's liberal use of planned unit developments (PUD), which allows for variations in established and standard developments. It's created a "know-it-when-we-see-it" approach, according to auditors.

"Since 1989, almost everything has been PUD creating a bunch of different little projects with diff standards. Everything has become their own defacto zoning so you have to go back and look at each plan for the development rather than the zoning ordinance," said City Manager Steve Davis.
Prior to the overhaul, the ordinance hadn't been revisited in three decades, according to Davis.
Port Wentworth's urban planning woes date back just as long to when the city annexed 20 square miles of land that became known as North Port Wentworth. The annexation tripled the size of the city and, with the aim of increasing resident population, experienced a massive development boom, a growth spurt that the city was ill-prepared to handle.
While the expansion was meant to bolster residential and commercial growth to counter industrial pressures from the neighboring Georgia Ports Authority, poor planning resulted in inadequate public services and commercial resources. Industry still subsumed much of Port Wentworth's once-agricultural and residential land.
The zoning overhaul and industrial rezoning moratorium was one of several moves the city has taken to redress the oversights of the past. Ongoing efforts include attracting commercial resources to the city, building recreational facilities such as the sports complex, and preparing for a revision of the comprehensive plan, which guides the municipality's overall vision.
