Strong and confident. Fashions this season are all about mak ing up your mind and sticking to it! We love these two looks from Erin Paparella who considers personal style the ultimate expression of character and personality.
Two looks that say HELLO, GORGEOUS
Rouze, located in downtown Naples, is a one-stop contemporary women's bou tique offering carefully curated clothing and accessories from both established and emerging designers.

Rouze was born from the word "rouse"to awaken, to stir up, to excite. Their goal is to help women discover their edge and personality through cloth ing, so they are able to live every day in confidence and style. We asked Erin about these two fab looks.
Erin Paparella 494 5th Street South ShopRouze.com
Bright White: The patent leather Saint Laurent platforms added the perfect amount of edge to this elegant Ronny Kobo lace suit. When I style, I always pair bolder accessories with feminine styles to elevate the entire look.
Boots for Miles: When dressing on trend for the season in our warmer climate, I try to pick clothing styles that are cool in temperature and complemented by sea sonal accessories. The Balenciaga boots work so well here with this neutral Ser.oy.a dress because of the bright, neon color. When choosing fall accessories in Florida, lighten up your look by choosing brighter tones over dark and heavier options.

Rickey LamitieRickey Lamitie came to Naples 10 years ago from Aspen to outfit members of exclusive golf clubs. His custom golf slacks were offered as the Tee Prize at Old Collier Golf Club and his team measured more than 100 men for custom slacks. “My 10-day trip turned into five months and then I opened the retail store at 281 Broad Ave. S. in 2012. We just celebrated our tenth year in Naples and we extended our lease for another 10 years,” says Rickey. He now spends five summer months in Aspen. “I enjoy dressing our clients appropriately for the different settings of their lives."

The future of non-profit and cause-driven organization fundraising is changing. It’s becoming harder and harder to find large amount single donors or local, private sectorDevelopmentbenefactors. directors have been forced to get more creative in the ways they generate support. "Traditional classic fundraisers like golf tournaments and galas will always have a place, but often aren’t enough. New crowd-sourcing fundraisers have become more popular," says Tim Chew of Amplifier Fundraising.

"We’re seeing more retailers offering customers the choice to 'round up' transac tions, with that amount donated to a local charity," he notes.
And of course, the granddaddy of all micro-donation fundraising is The Salvation Army Kettles. A staple of the holiday season, the kettle drives raised over $150 million last season alone with the majority of donations at $5 or less.
The power of the crowd is becoming more evident in the world of causedriven fundraising and it will be exciting to see what new innovations the future holds. AmplifierFundraising.org

"Online contests, sweepstakes, and social media engagements that allow a larger number of people to donate smaller amounts are becoming more successful." Politics aside, Barack Obama’s presiden tial campaigns raised more than $85 million with donations of $20 or less.
"It was incred ibly eye-opening to see the possibilities of micro-donations and the impact they can have on causes," says Tim.

ARTICLE BY SUE G. COLLINS AT MORAYA BAY, TRULY THOUGHTFUL INTERIORS WITH RESORT-STYLE LIVING
Here in Naples, we are swimming in stunning homes with panoramic water views and luxury amenities to make even the most worldly traveler swoon. This penthouse, however, made us stop and take notice, with its private elevator, wide-plank wood floors throughout (bye-bye tile), a dreamy main suite with a walk-in closet and custom built-in cabinetry, and design by Naples’ own Renee Gaddis Interiors. Balconies (more wood flooring!) with front row beachfront views that hug the condo at Moraya Bay and a perfectly scaled chef’s kitchen make this three bedroom, three-and-ahalf bath 11th floor home a rare bird.

And, Mid-American Coaches, a tour agency out of Washington, Missouri, was also purchased by the Hoffmanns, operating a trolley that transports guests between wineries in Augusta and Washington.
Before Napa, there was Missouri, the home to the country’s first designated AVA. An American Viticultural Area (AVA) is a des ignated wine grape-growing region in the United States distin guishable by geographic features, with boundaries defined by the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB). The Hoffmanns are honoring this unique destination around their investments in four wineries, six vineyards, more than a dozen small-town busi nesses, a five-star hotel, luxury riverboat, amphitheater, and golf course. Combined with their other business ventures there, the Hoffmanns expect to one day employ as many as 2,000 employees in the Augusta and Washington market. When the Hoffmanns set their goals, these wineries were collec tively doing about 650,000 bottles a year in sales. Last year, that number climbed to about a million, with a plan to bottle about 2 million bottles a year and plant about 50 acres of new grape vine yards each year. One of the larger projects in the new portfolio is an amphitheater that will hold up to 500 guests. Construction is expected to be completed soon and the venue will host events and concerts, featuring well-known artists, an important slice of the pie to the Hoffmanns, bringing a well-roundedness to the destination.
Next up are plans for a 100-acre resort including a five-star hotel on 100 acres with 53 rooms and seven suites. Other ameni ties will include conference and meeting room space, a wedding venue, spa, gym, yoga studio, indoor and outdoor pool, walking paths, a lounge, and a restaurant.
David and Jerri Hoffmann have a vision. We know The Hoffmann Family of Companies for their success in helping strengthen the commercial skyline of Naples, and now the couple is returning to their Missouri roots to help energize the region as an agri-tourism destination.
Missouri is home to the country’s first designated AVA, a designated wine grape-growing region distinguishable by geographic features
A former seminary campus will be renovated to house a second hotel to accommodate what will surely be an influx of visitors from Naples and around the country.

When settlers established the first 60 wineries in the area in the 1850s, they couldn’t have dreamed of what the rolling landscape would look like 170 years later. And, when Italian immigrants established vineyards in the St. James area of Missouri, their wine industry thrived at the turn of the century, with about 100 wineries throughout the state. Wine connoisseurs enjoyed 2 million gallons of Missouri wine each year. Missouri wines began winning international awards and acclaim. It is this rich history that the Hoffmanns are build ing on. And, to that, we say CHEERS!

One of the company’s most recent businesses is the Augusta Clothing Co., a fashion boutique that is the creation of Jerri Hoffmann and 105-foot luxury yacht named "Miss Augusta" —offering daytime excursions and private events. The entire regional investment by the Hoffmanns tallies at least $150 million.

“Our jumping-off point was the area rug, which we selected first from Naples Designer Rugs Center, paired with a neutral sofa from Arhaus. We wanted a casual coastal vibe to create a calming design, inspired by the color blue, my client's favorite color.” says Sandra, whose eponymous firm is based in Naples. “The rug's dramatic play of colors worked perfectly with their existing trav ertineSandrafloors.”Asdourian Interiors specializes in biophilic coastal contemporary designs. Biophilic design is the practice of connecting people and nature within our built environments and communities. Sandra believes the meaning of luxury is comfort. “When your home feels comfortable, it affects your mood and your health,” she notes. Next up on this project, Sandra’s vision included mix ing metals and a calm color palette with the swivel chairs and nickel chandelier. The warm saddle tone of the custom leather cocktail ottoman and brass tables com plement the pillows and throw that then add a soft layer of color. The coastal-inspired lamp by Regina Andrew adds a bit of texture. The cool colors bring brightness to the space, and the warmth balances with the gold seen on the floors. Finally, the Left Bank artwork pulls all the design's colors together. The icing on the cake!
