Inspiration Takes Over

Dear Friends,

I wanna be just like her when I grow up: Alicia Florrick, played by Julianna Margulies in The Good Wife. She is smart, independent, fiercely protective of her children, and much more than just a good wife.

She excels at keeping a cool exterior. She is rarely ruffled and almost always thinks before she speaks, choosing her words for maximum impact or sting. She exudes style and class.

Of course, she's also a fictional character. Nobody's perfect. But I love watching the way she and other characters dress on this television series. Inspirational!

Inspired in part by, mm-hmm, impeccably dressed fictional characters on television, AND your generous response to our 40% off sale (Thank you very much!) the store was getting a little bare. On a whim I flew to the exciting city of Los Angeles to freshen up Renee's.

Comfortable and colorful

Yesterday, some (almost) instant gratification arrived in the form of dresses, scarves and jewelry that I found on the trip. Just in time to don a dress for your Valentine's date, daytime dresses and cocktail attire is now showing at Renee's.

The trip to LA, along with these dress discoveries, have renewed my spirit and enthusiasm. Are you attending any weddings soon? Visit Renee's to dress you for your special events.

What about wearing a dress to work once in awhile? Would you consider that?

It's easy to wear a dress. You don't need to put much thought into it. Just remember to accessorize. Wear a fabulous scarf or some beautiful jewelry. Slip into a pair of leggings and pull on a pair of boots. You'll be ready for whatever your day holds without having to put much thought into getting ready.
