Looking towards the Fall!

Obvious from our dates, it has been quite sometime since we have posted on our Blog. Things have been busy around here as we try to make some big moves towards expansion and product development. There are some pretty exciting things in the works, but I don't want to give away too much before it happens! You will be the first to know after we decide everything is a go!

First on the agenda is our new Fall line, which we will be launching soon. Although many other companies are already populating their websites with Fall apparel, we think it is better to wait until it is actually....FALL. Crazy, I know. But, starting in September you will see the new products showing up on the site.

Secondly, for many of our customers as of late, we want to issue a very public apology! We know we have been slow getting products out and that is because of some growing pains we are experiencing. We never expected so many people to like what we are doing! Its fantastic, but it sometimes comes with negative impacts. We hope that you will come back and shop with us as we feel like we are finally through the storm.

And finally in today's post we wanted to point out a few of our favorite things about the Fall season. Some of them are a little bias (we are in Raleigh after all!)

#1 Football Season! We are all excited about football season. No matter what team you cheer for, it is something we all look forward to. Here at Lumina, we may have a bias towards Red and White....and Carter Finley, but that doesn't mean you can't like someone else!

#2 Drinks at Boylan Bridge! If you are in Raleigh and like beer, don't miss a chance to grab a pint at the Boylan Bridge Brew Pub. Great bar food (especially the engineer's club) and great beer. Plus, they quite possibly have one of the best views of Raleigh!

#3 Throwing on your Bean boots with some Jeans! In NC its rainy this time of year, and there is no better way to keep dry than a pair of bean boots! (They look great with a plaid tie...fall line?)

#4 Cord Blazers. They make a great addition to a casual night out, plus, you can't always wear your navy blazer...

#5 Labor Day Weekend. Not really Fall you might say. We would agree, but for us, labor day marks the end of summer and the beginning of the great season of Fall! AND its such a great vacation weekend! Don't forget to throw on a piece of Lumina Neckwear for the last parties of the summer season.

Keep checking back on our blog as we will try to post more frequently and we might just keep counting down some of our favorite fall moments!

Cheers, The Lumina CC Team
