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.

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.

As of March 2024, the average solar panel system costs $2.68/W including installation in Wake Forest, NC. For a 5 kW installation, this comes out to about $13,407 before incentives, though prices range from $11,396 to $15,418.

As of March 2024, the average solar panel system costs $2.68/W including installation in Wake Forest, NC. For a 5 kW installation, this comes out to about $13,407 before incentives, though prices range from $11,396 to $15,418. After the federal tax credit, the average price drops by 30%.
You'll probably pay even less than what we show here. It doesn't include the federal ITC or Wake Forest, NC state incentives, which will lower this price by at least a few thousand dollars.
It may seem obvious but larger solar panel systems cost more money. We use cost per watt ($/W) so you can easily compare quotes, controlling for slight variations in system size.
While a 5 kW system will only cost you $13,407 in Wake Forest, NC, doubling the system size effectively doubles the price, so you'll pay about twice that for a 10 kW system. The higher the price tag, though, the more you'll get back as a credit towards your federal tax bill.
Solar panels are worth it in most areas, including Wake Forest, NC. Certain factors, including the cost of electricity, incentives, climate, and the angle at which the sun hits your roof impact how quickly you break even on your investment relative to other areas around the U.S.
If you pay for your system with cash, you'll save about $17,947 over 20 years on electricity costs with a 5 kW system in Wake Forest, NC. We generate this estimate based on real solar quote data from our Marketplace. It considers your system's cost, the federal tax credit, and inflation rates.
If you can't shell out $13,407 in cash to pay for solar, don't sweat it. You can choose to finance your system with a loan instead. Some companies even offer $0-down loans so you can start saving on day one if your loan payments are less than your current electric bills. Just keep in mind that your long-term savings will be lower with a loan due to interest rates.
The numbers we're showing are averages. The price you'll pay for solar depends on many factors unique to you and your home:
If you're looking for solar companies in NC, here are some popular suggestions:
Solar is a major purchase, but you can get the price tag to come down a bit by being an educated shopper. Taking advantage of incentives and rebates and shopping around for quotes can bring down your cost of solar in Wake Forest, NC.
As long as your federal tax bill is high enough, you can take advantage of the federal tax credit in Wake Forest, NC. This incentive allows you to apply 30% of your solar installation and equipment costs toward your federal tax bill. If the amount exceeds your tax bill, you can roll over the remaining credit to the following year. Many states also offer great local incentives and rebates.
Comparing multiple solar quotes can save you money through competition and transparency. Each additional quote you receive for solar will help you find the right solar panel system at the right price.
This is where EnergySage can help. With funding from the Department of Energy’s SunShot Prize, EnergySage opened the country’s first (and now the largest) marketplace for home solar panel installations. We gather custom solar quotes from local installers on your behalf and put them in an easy-to-compare format. When you compare quotes for solar panels on the EnergySage Marketplace, you can expect to see prices up to 20% lower than if you work with a single solar company.

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (AP) —
North Carolina State (6-3, 3-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) at Wake Forest (4-5, 1-5), Saturday at 2 p.m. ET (The CW)
Line: N.C. State by 2 1-2, according to FanDuel Sportsbook.
Series record: N.C. State leads 68-42-6.
N.C. State has corrected its trajectory coming out of an open date and pushed to bowl eligibility with two straight wins. Wake Forest is trying to get to that six-win mark in what has been a frustrating season for a team that played for the ACC title two years ago.
N.C. State’s defense against Wake Forest’s offense. The Wolfpack’s defense has been a multi-year strength and has been vital to the past two wins against Clemson and Miami. The effort against the Tigers included a pick-6 while the unit forced turnovers and turned away every push by the Hurricanes. That group faces a Wake Forest offense that has struggled all year while averaging just 22.1 points to rank 13th in the 14-team ACC.
N.C. State: LB Payton Wilson. Wilson is coming off two huge performances, starting with the 15-yard interception return for a touchdown against Clemson and a season-high 16 tackles against Miami.
Wake Forest: QB Mitch Griffis. Griffis is coming off his most accurate passing day (16 of 19, 84.2%) against Duke, though his late interception proved costly.
This has been a troublesome spot for the Wolfpack with just one win in Winston-Salem in the past two decades. The last came in 2015, while the team lost in 2021 in a shootout that largely swung the division title to the Demon Deacons. ... The teams have met every season since 1910 for the longest continuous series in the ACC and second-longest nationally, trailing Minnesota-Wisconsin meeting every year since 1906. ... Wilson is fifth nationally by averaging 11.7 tackles per game. ... Another league loss would give Wake Forest its highest total in ACC play since losing seven in 2015. ... N.C. State has gotten fast development from receiver Kevin “KC” Concepcion, who is the first true freshman in school history to have two 100-yard games in a season and have six TD catches in a season. ... N.C. State hasn’t allowed a touchdown in nearly five full quarters going back to the 14:57 mark of the Clemson win. ... The Demon Deacons have lost four of five since a 3-1 start, with the lone winning coming in a comeback win against Pittsburgh behind third-string quarterback Santino Marucci on Oct. 21.

NC State football will kick off its last road stretch of the season when it takes on Wake Forest Saturday, Nov. 11.
Currently the second longest continuously played rivalry in all of college football, this will mark the 117th meeting between the two programs. NC State currently holds a 68-42-6 advantage over the Demon Deacons.
Despite the all-time series being tilted in favor of NC State, Winston-Salem, North Carolina has not been kind to the Pack in recent years. Since 2000, the Pack has a dismal 2-9 record when it faces the Deacons on the road.
This season, Wake Forest has not enjoyed the success that head coach Dave Clawson has delivered the program over the past few seasons. After losing its all-time passing leader in Sam Hartman, the program has had to undergo several changes this season. However, the Demon Deacons got off to a quick 3-0 start to the season, including a convincing road win at Vanderbilt.
Despite the early momentum, Wake Forest lost its stride against Georgia Tech, falling by double digits. This started a skid of losses that also included Clemson and Virginia Tech. The Demon Deacons temporarily halted their losing streak with a nail-biting win over Pittsburgh to snag their first ACC win. The following week, they took on No. 4 Florida State in a matchup that was a mismatch in almost every facet of the game, leading to a blowout loss.
Wake Forest had a chance at a marquee win last week as it visited Duke. Outperforming the Blue Devils in many areas of the game, it appeared as if the Deacons had played one of their most complete games of the season. However, a critical interception late in the fourth quarter allowed Duke to march down the field and kick the game-winning field goal.
For NC State, it is fresh off another large win at home in which it was an underdog. In its 20-6 win over Miami, the Pack once again mustered just enough offensive strength while the defense played an instrumental role in securing the win. Despite being outgained in total yards from scrimmage, NC State made enough clutch plays to pull away.
The Pack will look to pull off another quality defensive effort. Last week, the defense headed by graduate linebacker Payton Wilson stalled one of the best offenses in the ACC, limiting Miami to only two field goals. This week, it looks to capitalize on a Wake Forest offense that has had its fair share of ups and downs this season.
Perhaps the most improved aspect of the Pack’s game, its passing defense, has continued to make strides throughout the season. Last week, the unit made a major breakthrough holding one of the best quarterbacks in the conference to under 200 yards and forcing three interceptions. This week, NC State will take on a passing threat that averages only 205.7 yards through the air. The unit is led by quarterback Mitch Griffis, who has 1,534 passing yards, nine touchdowns and seven interceptions this season.
A large factor in Griffis’ success this season has been the presence of a solid receiving core. The group is headed by wide receiver Jahmal Banks, who has 528 receiving yards and three touchdowns. He is complemented by fellow pass-catchers Taylor Morin and Ke’Shawn Williams. The pair pose an additional threat for opposing secondaries, combining for a total of 786 receiving yards. If the Pack wants to continue its success in defending the pass, finding an answer to Wake’s receiving weapons will be key.
Despite a very impressive defensive effort last week, the Pack showed some cracks; Miami totalled 115 rushing yards from its top running back. This week, the Pack will face a back field that includes running backs Demond Claiborne and Justice Ellison, who have just over 1,000 combined rushing yards on the season. Claiborne currently leads the team with five rushing scores on the season.
This week, sophomore quarterback MJ Morris will have an opportunity to have a more complete offensive showing. NC State will face a passing defense that currently allows 237.6 yards — a number much higher than the 187.8 yard average for the Wolfpack. Morris will need to keep an eye out for defensive back DaShawn Jones, who has tallied three interceptions on the season.
The Pack’s game against Miami showed glimpses of the potential in its running game. Even though the unit has struggled for the most part this season, graduate quarterback Brennan Armstrong showed his ability to use his legs last week, and it seems NC State has a reliable force to help move the ball on the ground.
Rushers will have to keep an eye out for linebacker Jacob Roberts, who has amassed 62 total tackles on the year with nine tackles for a loss. He is paired with fellow linebacker Dylan Hazen, who has put forth 51 tackles.
Kickoff between the Wolfpack and Demon Deacons will be at 2 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 11 in Winston-Salem. The game will be televised on the CW Network.

North Carolina sports betting is almost here, with a March 11 scheduled start. However, sports bettors don’t have to wait to start taking advantage of the value that the best sports betting sites are offering. By taking advantage of pre-live offers such as the one from BetMGM Sportsbook North Carolina, they can begin adding extra value to their accounts. They can then use these bonus bets in a variety of ways, including on Wake Forest odds as the Demon Deacons try to secure a berth among March Madness odds.
The BetMGM pre-live offer delivers $200 in bonus bets.
Read on to learn how to cash in on these sign-up bonuses.
21+ only. NC only. New Customer Offer. Subject to eligibility requirements. Gambling problem? Call 877-718-5543 or visit morethanagame.nc.gov.
Starting on March 1, customers can pre-register for BetMGM North Carolina. To get started, click on the link above and follow the prompts to pre-register your account.
BetMGM will then notify you when they’ve prepped enough for launch that it’s time to make your account. You’ll need some key personal info handy when signing up in order to pass ID verification.
Sports betting in North Carolina goes live on Monday, March 11. If you don’t take advantage of the BetMGM pre-live offer well before then, you’ve missed out for good.
Once your account actually opens, you should receive the pre-live bonuses as well as the profit boosts.
Note that the bonus bets you receive are not equivalent to real money. They work a little differently from cash bets, in that you won’t get to keep the stake, only the winnings.
Here’s how that breaks down. Let’s say you make a wager on Wake Forest odds against Virginia Tech, using spread betting. The bet risks $55 to win $50. When using cash, if Wake Forest covers, you’ll win $105 — $50 in winnings plus your original stake. When using bonus bets, if Wake Forest covers, you’ll win $50. Only the winnings from the bet return to your account.
Speaking of $50 bets, that’s exactly how BetMGM will divvy up the bonus offering — four $50 bets equal to $200 in total bonuses.
Make sure you look over the terms and conditions of the bonus bets for full details, as different North Carolina sports betting apps have different rules.
Fans in North Carolina can use the BetMGM pre-live bonuses on Wake Forest odds if they so choose. The Demon Deacons are in the midst of a nail-biting finish to the season, as it looks likely they’ll have to sweat out Selection Sunday unless they make a deep run in the ACC Tournament.
Wake Forest carries an 18-10 record into its final few games and boasts a top-25 KenPom rating. However, aside from beating Florida, they have not racked up the quality wins necessary to secure an at-large bid for certain. A huge (and controversial) win over Duke certainly rates to help.
As of Feb. 28, ESPN has Wake Forest as among the last eight teams in.
