City Manager’s Monthly Update

Sponsored by T Wilson

I am excited to share updates on our ongoing roadway projects, demonstrating our commitment to enhancing safety and connectivity for all residents. These projects, funded through city, county, developer, and state partnerships, are crucial for our city’s growth.

This summer, the southern extension of Leonard Avenue was completed, and the East Foster Crossing developer project is advancing on schedule, targeting substantial completion by the end of 2024.The south extension of Ferguson Parkway, a major city initiative with an 80/20 NCTCOG funding match and TxDOT oversight, is through its environmental clearance phase.

We’ve incorporated valuable public feedback into the design and right-of-way acquisition is the next step. We’re also making headway on the Finley Boulevard Widening, which is expected to be completed by the end of September, enhancing traffic flow and safety.

Our Downtown Streets Project is transforming the downtown hub with concrete streets and on-street parking and phase II of the project will include a pedestrian street at North Interurban Street.

Looking forward, on the horizon include the widening of Rosamond Parkway, which will involve constructing southern lanes through the Buddy Hayes intersection, and the extension of Buddy Hayes Blvd., both north and south of Rosamond Parkway. These improvements will ensure robust infrastructure to support increased traffic at the Anna Town Center shopping district and enhance transportation efficiency in the area.

We remain dedicated to minimizing construction disruptions and ensuring these projects meet our community’s needs.

Thank you for your continued support and patience as we work to create a safer, more connected Anna. Stay informed about these projects by visiting our website. Together, we’re building a brighter future for Anna.

In addition, style is an art form, a personal narrative told through fabric, color, and silhouette. A reflection of our inner selves, our values, and our creativity. It has the power to transform, to empower, and to inspire.

Whether you seek to refine your look, understand the nuances of color coordinate draw inspiration from the elegance around you, this issue is crafted to ignite your creativity. We delve into the world of timeless elegance and versatility with a special feature on the Little Black Dress (LBD). A garment that has transcended decades of fashion trends, remains an essential piece in every woman’s wardrobe, embodying sophistication, simplicity, and an enduring sense of style. We also immerse ourselves in the free-spirited and eclectic world of Boho style which is a free-spirited and eclectic fashion trend characterized by its use of vibrant colors, intricate patterns, and flowing relaxed silhouettes, often inspired by bohemian and hippie influences.

Thank you for joining us on this exploration of style. May you find inspiration within these pages and embrace the power of style in your everyday life.

• 1 Lime

• ½ Navel Orange

• ½ Sparkling Water

Step 4. Fill the glasses with ice and add the tequila mixture (leave some room for the sparkling water).

Step 5. Add the sparkling water, a few slices of jalapeno, and the cucumber slices to the glass and enjoy!

IS NEVER OVER OR UNDRESSED WITH A LITTLE BLACK DRESS” - KARL LAGEFIELD

The concept of the Little Black Dress became iconic due to its association with the fashion designer Coco Chanel, who introduced the idea of a simple, elegant, and accessible garment that could be worn for various occasions.

Discovering Boho Chic

ARTICLE AND PHOTOGRAPHY BY SHANNON ROBERTS

COLORFUL, ECLECTIC & FUN VIBE

““Walk like a Queen, Love like a Hippie, Travel like a Gypsy, Work like a warrior”

Boho Chic, short for bohemian chic, is a fashion style that draws inspiration from bohemian and hippie influences. It is characterized by a relaxed, free-spirited, and eclectic vibe that celebrates individuality and creativity. Although Boho Chic for women has its roots in the counterculture movements of the 1960s and 70s, it has evolved over the years to become a popular and enduring fashion trend.

Flowy Silhouettes with maxi dresses, peasant blouses, loose-fitting tops, and billowy skirts are staples of Boho Chic. These silhouettes offer comfort and freedom of movement, reflecting the bohemian attitude of embracing natural shapes and relaxed fits.

Incorporating vintage-inspired prints such as paisley, florals, tie-dye, and ethnic patterns including tribal motifs, these prints add a touch of bohemian flair and visual interest to outfits.

Favoring natural fabrics like cotton, linen, silk, and suede for their softness, breathability, and earthly feel brings the laid-back and organic aesthetic to this style. Think warm, earthy color pallets like auburn, chestnut-colored, burgundy, turquoise, and creamy neutrals.

Layering, mixing, and matching different textures, patterns, and lengths add depth and dimension to outfits, creating a relaxed and effortlessly cool look.

Accessories play a vital role in completing a boho chic outfit. Widebrimmed hats, fringed bags, statement jewelry, oversized sunglasses, chunky belts, scarves, and sandals.

Boho Chic self-expression, creativity, and a carefree spirit. Boho Chic allows you to infuse your style with a touch of whimsy and individuality.

bohemian inspirational quotes

“I’m going to make everything around me beautiful – that will be my life.”

“She was gypsy at heart, her hair was messy, her eyes were wild, and her soul free.”

“She’s a wandering, roaming bohemian woman with hair that flows and eyes that know.”

CALM YOUR SPACE, calm your mind

A few changes in your bedroom and bathroom will provide you with the peaceful mindset to conquer the next busy day’s demands. By incorporating these tips and creating a spa-like experience at home will promote a healthier lifestyle filled with relaxation, rejuvenation, and self-care.

Reduce visual noise, by decluttering your spaces. Choose a color palette that promotes relaxation and tranquility. Soft, neutral tones like light blues, greens, and pastels create a tranquil atmosphere. Comfortable, soft, breathable bedding like cotton or linen with layers of cozy blankets and throws create a warm and inviting bed. Lighting plays a crucial role in setting the mood in your bedroom. Incorporate dimmable, soft, warm lighting on bedside tables.

Creating that spa-like experience in your bathroom begins with creating a relaxing oasis. By incorporating elements of tranquility and luxury your bathroom can provide a sanctuary for relaxation, rejuvenation, and selfcare. Introduce soft lighting through candles or installing a dimmer. Elevate your sense of calm through use of soothing scents, such as lavender with candles, bath salts, or bath oil. Soft, luxurious, oversized towels and a fluffy bathrobe will heighten your sense of being pampered.

Disconnect from technology and create a screen-free zone during your home spa experience. Fully immerse yourself in the relaxation and selfcare rituals. Use this time to unwind, de-stress, and recharge both your body and mind.

INTERIOR STYLING

ARTICLE BY LEANN PARKER

Have you ever pieced together an outfit for a special event or placed a collection of items on a shelf and then stood back and found that the pieces you pulled together totally worked or completely did not work? I used to think that I either needed a whole lot of talent or a bit of luck when it came to styling something beautifully. Turns out, there is no talent or luck about it at all. It all starts with a math formula. This formula is known as The Golden Ratio of 1.618. Discovered in the ancient world by mathematicians, this pattern can be found all over in the world of nature. This ratio creates patterns that can be found on the spines of a pinecone, seeds on a sunflower head, spirals on seashells, even the human form, to name only a few. And our eyes love to see it. Why our eyes like this particular pattern may remain a mystery but how to achieve it is no mystery at all. Fashion designers, interior designers, architects, photographers and artists have all been using this formula for centuries in order to achieve visually appealing compositions. And so can you!

LET’S MAKE A VIGNETTE!

In interior styling, a vignette is a small, curated collection of objects grouped together to create a smaller picture within a larger space in a room. Chances are, at some point you’ve put together a vignette without knowing it was one. What makes the difference between a purposefully styled vignette and a cluttered collection is all in the composition. The composition is most appealing when this amazing Golden Ratio is applied.

To get started on styling a vignette, first decide on the space you’ll place it. It could be an empty shelf, bedside table, or coffee table. Next, collect a few of your very favorite things that could be styled there. These objects could be a few books, a vase with flowers, a candle, a small clock, a plant, a few apples, the list is endless. Now that you have your space and objects to style, it’s time to assemble your vignette.

GET IN LINE!

Where To Place Objects

In grid form, the Golden Ratio shows designers exactly where to place the most important objects in the composition for the greatest visual appeal. Known as Phi, this grid splits the space that you’re working with into thirds vertically and horizontally. To apply to your vignette, place the most important objects on the correlation grid lines. Even better, place on the points where the lines intersect. This will be more appealing to the eye than if the important objects are in the center of the frame or far to the sides.

FOLLOW THE FLOWERS

How many objects to use

In number form, the Golden Ratio helps us to know how many items to use when styling a vignette. This form is known as the Fibonacci Sequence (0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, etc.). The sequence grows as it adds together the prior two numbers to get a new number (for example, 3+5=8 and 5+8=13, etc) and repeats. Amazingly, all the numbers that you achieve by doing this are the exact same numbers of petals that are found on flowers. How amazing is that! To apply to styling a vignette, choose a number in the Fibonacci Sequence for the number of items you will use to style. Typically 3 or 5 objects work great for small vignettes.

STEP DOWN OR TRIANGLE

What shape to create

The eye loves to see odd numbers. Odd numbers stop our brain from categorizing items into pairs which are less visually interesting. When styling a vignette, build a triangle shape of 3 points with the objects you are styling. To achieve this, vary the heights of objects to make a stepping down effect. If your items are of similar height then use books or a small object to lift one higher so that it appears taller than the others. To start, place the tallest piece in the back, medium piece in front and slightly to the side of the tall piece, then the smallest piece in front to create a stepping down effect. The Golden Triangle has angles of 72 and 36 degrees but any triangle here will do!

LAYERS UPON LAYERS

How to place objects

Avoid straight lines when styling a vignette. Three objects placed side by side is far less interesting than if they are slightly overlapped (literally or visually). Layer objects in order to give them a sense of belonging together, as random of a collection as they may be. Layering can also be achieved by mixing textures (woven basket, shiny glass and organic leaf).

TO MIX OR TO MATCH

How to choose objects

Decide ahead of time if your vignette will be a mixture of items or a single themed collection. If you’re mixing (such as using a vase, a plant, and a candle) then make sure your objects all have a commonality either of color, texture or form. If you’re going with matched items (such as all white candles) then take extra care to use odd numbers and varying heights for visual interest.

I hope you have fun creating your vignette and share them with me over on IG @SilvertoothHome . You can also visit me at my website SilvertoothHome.com I’m excited for you to check it out and learn more with me there!

ELEVATE YOUR CLOSET

Every woman dreams of an organized and beautiful closet space, but it often comes last on the list of places that get their time and attention. Follow our nine tips for transforming and elevating your closet. How you organize your closet will of course differ based on the size of your space, the size of your wardrobe, and the kind of life you lead. But applying these guidelines will result in a much more organized and aesthetically pleasing space.

FACE CLOTHES THE SAME DIRECTION

It may seem silly, but when dealing with a small space, little things count. Hanging all clothes the same direction is a no-brainer for continuity in your closet.

USE REAL ESTATE WISELY

Reserve the front and middle of the closet for clothes worn most often. For someone who gets dressed for work each morning at 6 a.m., work clothes should be at the front of the closet. Store lesser-worn items like formal wear and out-of-season clothes toward the back and on the upper shelves. A large mirror and counter with chair provides the perfect spot to select jewelry and finalize finishing outfit touches. While every closet is different, the key here is everything has a home.

MAKE A STATEMENT

Why use an armchair when you have room for a sofa? Slide up a stool and colorful area rug to complete the look. If you have excessive wall space, consider a mini gallery wall or a statement wall with wallpaper to polish things off.

HIDDEN STORAGE

Hidden storage is a game changer in keeping a closet visually clean. Tuck folded clothes behind closed cabinet doors if the space is multipurpose. The floor-toceiling built-ins in Keri’s closet contain folded clothes, athleisure and other items she needs as she gets ready each day. Tuck away the least-used items: Use hidden storage and the very top of the closet for out-of-season items and stuff only worn a few times a year.

ORGANIZE BY KIND AND COLOR

Group clothes by kind first and color second. This ensures quick location of that favorite shirt when it’s needed. Bonus - it’s easy on the eye. Group like with like: Gather belts, sweaters, long-sleeve shirts, work pants, dresses, button-down shirts, jeans, shorts, etc., and decide the best place to store each item as a group (e.g., hang pants in the closet, fold and stack sweaters in a bureau). Working with groupings will help you figure out how much space you need and the best way to store each type of item.
