FROM THE editor’s desk
Did you see all of those amazing women on the cover? Each one of them is featured in this month’s Women in Business issue, along with so many others. We need a bigger cover!
Normally for this edition we host one big cover shoot at
a local casino resort and we invite all of our Women in Business to attend. This year, however, things had to go a little differently. Seeing as we couldn’t gather in large groups, we got a little (or a lot) creative with this year’s cover, showcasing these talented ladies as individual shots on a roll of film.
Though different, this one may be my favorite yet! It’s
fitting because this issue is a snapshot in time, highlighting
the accomplishments each of these women have achieved and acknowledging the experience it took to get there. Next year, we’ll look back and see how far we’ve all come. And, hopefully, we’ll be able to celebrate these women in person once again!
Also in this issue, we sat down with Whitney Dubuisson whom many of you may recognize from Panache Apparel & Accessories. When she’s not behind the counter or modeling the latest trends online, Whitney can be found turning barrels on her horse Blue Jeans – the epitome of “cowgirl chic.”
In other fashion news, we sat down with Crystal Cagle of Moxie Shop in Ocean Springs to learn all about curvy girl style. Think you can only rock all-black looks and stay far away from horizontal stripes? Think again! Fashion is all-inclusive and there are no rules.
If revving engines are more your thing, check out the Cruisin’ the Coast special section. Here you’ll find this year’s schedule and information on health and safety measures being taken. Keep a half a car apart, y’all!
