A Perfectly Tailored Experience

W

hether it’s an engagement or another important milestone, we often choose jewelry to commemorate special times in our lives. At The Diamond Bar in Town and Country, owner Chris Phillips believes the piece itself should be equally as special. He is dedicated to providing a shopping experience unlike any other. Along with providing repair and appraisal services, the store helps clients create one-of-a-kind pieces and offers a unique selection of custom jewelry for them to shop.

For almost two decades, Phillips has been perfecting the craft of jewelry design, so he can create pieces that are unlike those found in most display cases. He enjoys bringing people’s visions to life, so they walk away happy with something completely original and unique to them. “Custom jewelry allows you to design a ring or special piece that only you will have,” he says. “At The Diamond Bar, creating a custom piece doesn’t cost more than purchasing something pre-made. We design each piece per our client’s budget, depending on the stones chosen.”

When designing a custom item at The Diamond Bar, people can bring in their own diamonds and gemstones or choose from the store’s selection of natural diamonds and other stones. Phillips meets with clients one-on-one to discuss ideas and hand sketch the design. Those sketches are then used to create a 3D model in a computer program.

The program allows the

design to be altered, so the final product is exactly as desired. The model is used to create a wax mold, which is cast in the metal of the customer’s choosing. “The final product is hand-set and polished to perfection right here in the shop,” he says.

The Diamond Bar lives up to its name as it includes a fully stocked bar that is complimentary for guests. It is part of Phillips’ unique approach to customer service. One of his major goals is to create a less stressful experience. “We provide a relaxed atmosphere that allows clients to focus on their wants and needs, not what a store is

trying to sell them,” he explains. “Our goal is to find or create something that you fall in love with rather than just another piece that you could find in any jewelry display. Our elevated spirits bar and jewelry bar, helps our clients relax and shop while not feeling overwhelmed.”

The store recently celebrated its two-year anniversary. Phillips says he’s grateful for the support The Diamond Bar has received. “We have been fortunate enough to create hundreds of new pieces for clients,” he notes. “We love to design, and our clients give us the freedom to do so. As we continue, we’re looking forward to becoming St. Louis’ custom jewelry store. We want people to know they don’t have to be afraid of choosing a custom piece. At The Diamond Bar, they have a place where you can get something that is truly one-of-a-kind.”

I CAN’T BELIEVE IT’S ALREADY SEPTEMBER. And by the time you read this, Labor Day will have come and gone. The first day of autumn m​​ay not officially be until Sept. 22, but unofficially, there is no question that summer is over. Now, it’s time to get excited about fall. And honestly, what’s not to love? The crisp air, the chunky sweaters, the beautiful foliage—and pumpkin everything.

To help you prepare for the change in season, we’ve curated a lot of great content. This is our fall fashion issue, so you won’t want to miss the fashion spread (p. 30) featuring some major style inspiration, whether you’re looking for cozy fall vibes or harvest time high fashion. In other style news, you also can learn about the new stores and opportunities popping up at West County Center soon (p. F5).

This issue also includes our Where Our Grads Are Going feature (p. 13). Every year, we share the colleges and universities local high school graduates have chosen to attend. It’s amazing to see the diverse paths St. Louis students are taking. Some have opted to stay close to the StL, others have headed across the country and some made their way to international schools in cities like London and Hong Kong. We wish them all the best of luck and can’t wait to see what they do next!

Not ready to completely let go of summer yet? Don’t worry we’ve got you covered there, too. Check out our interview with Blake Eyres, D.D.S. (p. F6). The local dentist hit the beaches of Maui this spring as part of the cast of Temptation Island. Resident reality TV buff Patty Hannum chats with him about the experience, his love life and, well, oral hygiene.

This year seems to be flying by. Before we know it, we’ll be prepping for Thanksgiving and hanging the holiday lights.

Before that, though, let’s take some to enjoy what fall brings us, whether it’s the excitement of a new school semester or the buzz of drinking dozens of pumpkin spice lattes. Happy fall, St. Louis!

COVER STORY

LET’S CELEBRATE WEST COUNTY CENTER

by stephanie wallace BIRTHDAYS ARE IMPORTANT MILESTONES, and they also should be sources of great happiness. This year, West County Center is turning 19, and on Sept. 10, it’s throwing a special celebration—but the birthday joy doesn’t stop there. The shopping center has partnered with the Foster & Adoptive Care Coalition (FACC) Birthday Buddies program to ensure local children enjoy their special days, too. Shoppers can donate gift cards from West County Center stores to children who could use a birthday surprise.

The Birthday Buddies initiative matches donors with children in foster care who are unlikely to receive any gifts on their birthdays. “Many foster parents have big hearts but not wallets, and birthday gifts often are an extra expense they cannot cover,” explains Shelley Thomas-Benke, FACC director of volunteers. “For these kids, the possibility of shopping at a popular store at West County Center is huge. Sometimes, their birthdays can cause sadness because they aren’t with their biological parents, but receiving a gift through the program makes them feel cared for and special.”

To make a donation, West County shoppers first need to visit the large, decorative birthday cake on Level 1 of the mall near Nordstrom. The cake is decorated with envelopes that contain wish lists created by children with an upcoming birthday. Shoppers can take an envelope, purchase a gift card from the store indicated, and drop the donation inside the cake. They can even include a personal message to the child with the gift. “We’re also asking that guests at our 19th Birthday Celebration bring a gift card for donation,” says Sean Phillips, West County Center’s marketing director. “We’ll have a special table top version of the giant birthday cake, and representatives from FACC will be in attendance to collect the presents.”

The event will be held outside in the shopping center’s restaurant village and will include live music from the Charles Glenn Group, food and more. Visitors also will get to enjoy the center’s new patio space. “We wanted to create an area for people to spend time outdoors,” Phillips says.

“There are yard games for people to play. It’s a great space to take a break from shopping or have some fun while waiting for a table at one of our restaurants.” As another element of the birthday fun, shoppers at West County Center’s Hallmark store will receive a “Something to Celebrate” box with each purchase of $30 or more while supplies last. The box is a $50 value, containing greeting cards, gift bags, wrapping paper and more.

The Birthday Buddies partnership with West County Center launched this spring, and in just about six months, it has raised more than $8,500 in gift card donations for FACC, according to Thomas-Benke. She notes that one case manager recently shared a story about a boy who cried upon receiving his present. “I asked him what was going on,” the case manager recalls. “He answered that he had never received any birthday presents, and he couldn’t believe that someone who didn’t even know him wanted to acknowledge his birthday. He said it was the best day of his life.” &

Had it up to here with honeysuckle?

Wanna wage war on wintercreeper?

If you’re one of the people intent on helping restore Ruth Park Woods and Nature Trail, 26 acres hugging the northern border of the eponymous golf course, you might refer to the latter invasive plant species as euonymus.

Kathy Freese and other NatureScapers with U City in Bloom didn’t have to call the pesky plant anything as they eagerly ripped it off tree trunks with their gloved hands. They identified it for the benefit of a brown-thumbed reporter as they led him about 1.2 miles along the nature trail, introducing him to a major undertaking the botanical beautification band has begun, grateful for a recent $15,000 cost-share grant from Missouri Department of Conservation. This community-stewardship outlay is not a one-and-done deal. U City in Bloom will have to apply annually for the cost-share arrangement, and the amount will depend on what the group spends on equipment and staff time for reimbursement. Six focus areas have been designated for the multi-year project. Freese and her colleagues pointed out an area near the eastern trail entrance, off the golf course lot, where volunteers—Wash U. law school students, mostly—had cleared away honeysuckle, leaving behind a horticultural hazard: stumps.

Pink ribbons were tied about the trunks of trees and other vegetation that was to be kept. Hackberry, oak, maybe even sassafras. But the Japanese hops had to go, plus, of course, the omnipresent euonymus. If left to their own biology, many invasives are, shall we say, reproductively vigorous: Euonymus can grow two feet a year! U City in Bloom does not have enough staffers to tackle this and other projects on its own.

Volunteers are needed and welcome.

As Freese exclaims, “We need an army of eco-warriors!”

Many 50th anniversaries are coming up for stuff that happened in 1971. Obviously. Well, it’s a little unnerving for me, a man of a certain age, because I have my 50th high school reunion next year. This means that many of the classic LPs I bought back when I was a junior in high school are 50 this year, like What’s Goin’ On by Marvin Gaye. What goes around comes around, I guess, because that fine R&B record is still relevant today. A lot of movies from 1971, on the other hand, just seem hopelessly outdated, cheesy, irrelevant, exploitative— or all of the above. A whole subgenre of film—Shaft, Superfly and their ilk—reared its ugly head during this era: blaxploitation.

Then there were the crime dramas; the Dirty Harry series started about this time. Clint Eastwood never looked so good or seemed so nasty. Which brings us to Klute, Jane Fonda’s Oscar-winning star turn opposite Donald Sutherland. Fonda still looks fantastic (good Hollywood genes, I reckon), but Sutherland has looked much worse for wear pretty much since 1998. Local film aficionado Joseph M. Schuster says Fonda reinvented herself as a new kind of movie star by bringing a nervy audacity and counterculture style to the role of a call girl and aspiring actor who becomes the focal point of a missing-person investigation when detective John Klute (Sutherland) turns up at her door. Critics say Fonda made the film her own, putting an independent woman and escort on-screen with a frankness that had not yet been attempted in Hollywood. Her costuming is almost as outrageous as anything from blaxploitation, because, well, the seventies. Cinema St. Louis is featuring Klute as part of its Golden Anniversary series on Monday, Sept. 13, at 7:30 p.m. The online screening includes an introduction and discussion

If a train could be a rockstar, the Union Pacific Big Boy No. 4014 would be one. It’s the biggest steam locomotive still in operation, and thousands of metro residents acted all kinds of kooky, like groupies backstage at a concert angling for an autograph. I can’t imagine what your Facebook and Instagram feeds looked like Monday, Aug. 30, in the morning when the immense specimen of 20th century rolling stock came rumbling through the metro, but my social media blew up with photos, comments and videos that gave me an inkling of just how big a deal that greasy old choo-choo is to some folks. One of my friends posted a video shot from within a crowd of hundreds gathered alongside the tracks somewhere in Webster Groves, everybody else holding up their cell phones as though Mick Jagger was just about to strut across the stage. Another friend captured similar footage from near the landmark train station in downtown Kirkwood. There was stuff from people I hadn’t heard from on social media in years, even *sniff* on my birthday. I guess I just don’t get it, because my overall reaction was that these folks must not get out much.

I have another friend who’ll drive to the station just to watch the trains come and go, and I’m sure some people still park near the airport to watch planes take off and land. And there’s no nerd like a model railroader. But some of those enthusiasts probably look askance at music freaks in the same way. To each his own, of course. Although I’m sure some hobbyists are more bizarre than others. I mean, I hear some adult men collect baseball cards. Can you just imagine that?

WHAT IS A COST-SHARE GRANT FROM MISSOURI DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION?

LAST ISSUE’S Q&A What game was banned in Scotland in the mid-15th century, and why?

Golf was banned in the mid-15th century in Scotland because, you see, able-bodied men didn’t have leisure time for perfecting their swing.

They had pressing worries, like enemy invasions and stuff. Therefore, Scotsmen were required to practice archery to improve their aim, the better to defend your realm or to invade somebody else’s.

downtown There was a quip about The Lou way back in the day before one of our town’s major-league baseball teams really started making a name for itself: “First in shoes, first in brews and last in the American League.” That would be referring to the St. Louis Browns, the AL team that became the Baltimore Orioles following the 1953 season.

For several seasons here, the Browns actually sold more tickets than our beloved Redbirds. Meanwhile, Griesedieck Bros. sold a popular brew that competed with a lager produced on Pestalozzi Street—Budweiser. And that completes the baseball and beer part of our presentation. What about those shoes? Well, a delightful new book from Reedy Press by Valerie Battle Kienzle will tell you more than you’d ever thought there was to know. Many readers surely have heard of International Shoe Co., with world headquarters on Washington Avenue downtown; its vintage office is now occupied by the City Museum. But Kienzle’s beautiful, coffee table tome Ready to Wear: A History of the Footwear and Garment Industries in St. Louis highlights more sewing going on than simply leather to leather, lasts to soles. Many garments were made in literal sweatshops, writes Kienzle. Whenever they took a water break, workers were encouraged to also take a salt tablet. “Most of both industries were built on the backs of women,” she laments.

Women came from small ... THE SHOE AND towns in Missouri and Illinois GARMENT INDUSTRIES ... for low-wage jobs in the city.

Although the garment district HERE WERE SECOND ONLY downtown was humming TO THOSE IN NEW YORK. during the late 19th century and well into the 20th, the tide turned here as it did in many industrial cities in the mid-20th century. Today, Saint Louis Fashion Fund is making inroads via hosting designers for stints in its incubator, “and the ones who are here are really making an impact,” Kienzle says. “But it will never be what it once was.” Even the Fashion Fund has moved from the erstwhile district, meanwhile having been the prime mover in establishing Evolution St. Louis, a 32,000-square-foot high-tech knitting concern. Back when Washington Avenue was known as The Street, or Shoe Street, the shoe and garment industries that were burgeoning here were second only to those in New York. But that’s only a little bit about now and not a whole lot about then. Kienzle writes that our fair city began in 1764 on the banks of the Mississippi River just south of the confluence with the Missouri River—as a fur trading village. So, we came by high-fashion, workaday apparel and shoes honestly. As did Kienzle herself, by marriage. “My husband is a shoe man,” she notes. But why write? “I’m a lifelong history nerd.”

A journalist who went to ‘J’ school at Mizzou, she cut her teeth at the now-defunct Nashville Banner and moved from ‘The Athens of the South’ to the Gateway City in 1980. She and her husband live in Weldon Spring, and you can wear out shoe leather with her next book, on walking tours in and around St. Charles. Meanwhile, Kienzle is paying it forward: 25% of her book’s proceeds is earmarked for the Fashion Fund. Visit stlfashionbook.com

PATTY by patty hannum

I DON’T KNOW if you have been following the drama surrounding the replacement of the late Alex Trebek as host of Jeopardy!, but I have— half-heartedly. I like Jeopardy!, but it’s not ‘must-see’ TV the way Married at First Sight or The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills are. I do like a good scandal, and it seems that the new host of Jeopardy!, who has resigned, said some offensive things in the past, and it caught up with him. So, the search continues, or it does as of this writing.

Jeopardy! is a game that humbles people.

I consider myself above average in intelligence until I sit down and watch the show. Then, I begin to question every single educational institution I attended. Who are these people who know all this stuff? And more importantly, why don’t I know it too? Was my education lacking? Did I sleep during critical classes? I excel at Wheel of Fortune and Family Feud. The only time I am a worthy opponent on Jeopardy! is the dumb-downed version they have for celebrities each year.

So, how could I win at Jeopardy!? These would have to be my categories.

Serial Killers – I would kill in this category (sorry for the pun). Given my weird obsession with crime, I am pretty darn familiar with the various serial killers across the world. From Jack the Ripper to Ted Bundy to the BTK Killer, I’ve read about all of them. And yes, I did this on my own time and of my own free will.

Reality TV – Sad but true. I consume more reality TV than scripted. I just really like watching other people misbehave. I now watch reality TV shows from Australia on Acorn TV. Somehow, bad behavior seems more acceptable when it is committed with a lovely Aussie accent.

Religious Cults – Here’s another weird obsession of mine. A few years back, I wanted to learn about different world religions. I did. But off the path I went and became immersed in reading about cults!

From Warren Jeffs and the FLDS to Jim Jones and the Netflix documentary Wild Wild Country, I feel my knowledge of the odd is oddly superior.

☛

U.S. Presidents – I like often overlooked facts about Presidents like the names of their various Chiefs of Staff and pets and which ones had badly behaved brothers (nearly all—my favorite though was Jimmy Carter’s brother Billy. Anyone remember Billy Beer?).

Medical Mysteries – As a hypochondriac, I’ve had every possible disease—all imagined of course.

But whenever I read the New York Times medical diagnosis column, I am shocked how often I get them correct. Give me any bits of obscure information, and I will be able to tell you if you have dengue fever, malaria or just the flu.

Advertising Jingles – I cannot leave the past behind. Even if a brand has changed their advertising promotion, I still will sing “Pop, pop, fizz, fizz” every time I see Alka Seltzer and “I’d like to teach the world to sing” for Coca-Cola.

Clearly, I will never be a contestant on Jeopardy!, but I am the person to go to for useless information!

Peace my Peeps.

PHENOMENAL FAMILIES WHEN WE SEE IGNITED, successful people, we don’t often think about what growing up was like for them. But if you tuned into the Olympics this summer, then you probably saw footage of parents, grandparents, siblings and other relatives cheering on their Olympian. I was moved by the direct connection between these athletes and their families. It’s not often we get to see the people alongside the superstars they raised.

You have to admire parents who inspire their kids to greatness.

Raising one outstandingly accomplished child is a feat, but some families churn out multiple phenoms. Let’s look at a few of these families.

After reaching the pinnacles of success, Venus and Serena Williams cited specific ways their parents prepared them to go the distance. They say that their parents instilled in them the values of competition and resilience that would lead them to become two of the most successful tennis players of all time. They credit their mother with teaching them to be strong women and their father is considered by many to be one of the best self-taught tennis coaches in history. Their parents started working on this dream early on—deciding before the Williams sisters were even born that they would be tennis champions.

Another famous sibling duo, the Wright brothers, also were raised by inspiring parents who cultivated their skills and innovative spirits long before their groundbreaking inventions. Orville Wright once said, “We were lucky enough to grow up in an environment where there was always encouragement to investigate whatever aroused our curiosity.” Their mother was an inventor herself and solved household problems by designing and building her own appliances. Always committed to developing her sons’ creative minds, she allowed them to take days off of school when they were engaged in stimulating projects.

In business, Denise and Maggie Sullivan have knocked it out of the park. While you may not have heard of the Sullivan sisters, they were the CEOs of Campbell’s Soup Company and Frontier Communications—collectively managing more than $13 billion in earnings and employing more than 37,000 people. Growing up, their mother taught them to embrace ambition, and their father took them to work long before it was in vogue. From the start, their parents assumed the girls would become successful business leaders, and in turn, almost every single Sullivan childhood touchpoint was handled with an eye toward developing skills and traits they would one day rely upon when leading major endeavors.

Obviously, we can’t all raise back-to-back superstars and Olympians—especially when just getting the kids to bed feels like a Herculean feat. And, frankly, we don’t all need to be raising business tycoons and famous inventors (although, I give kudos to the ones that do), but we do have the chance to inspire the next generation to pursue their passions and believe in themselves. You can set an intention or set aside a little time to support those around you by highlighting their strengths (children or otherwise). We can’t see ourselves without the help of others, so one of the best ways you can encourage people is by expressing the ways they add value and what they do well. Igniting creativity, passion, innovation and a lifelong commitment can begin with a small spark of sincere and specific encouragement.

IN FOCUS

PARENT TRAP

by dr. tim jordan

HOMEWORK IS HERE

A NEW SCHOOL YEAR means a fresh round of battles over

homework. I find many parents resort to nagging, cajoling, bribing, rewarding, punishing, overpowering or throwing in the towel and doing it for their kids. Sound familiar? How about this school year you change course and do it differently? Here’s how.

Instead of lecturing or laying out your expectations for this school year, start by asking your child what their intentions are for their learning. Notice that I didn’t say grades on purpose.

Our hyper focus on grades and earning A’s has been the cause of many young people losing their intrinsic love of learning.

Kids are born curious, and their brains are wired to discover.

They love to learn unless we distract them with rewards and punishments. Ask which of their classes are their favorites, what they want to achieve and why. We rarely ask kids why, so they aren’t accustomed to looking inward for their motivation.

Instead of micromanaging them, agree to check in every one to two weeks and with any report cards. Have them show you their work, how they plan to improve and what support they need from you.

I’d also ask about any intentions they have about their social life. Do they want to deepen current friendships, attract better ones or develop friends in different groups? Sydney, a girl I counseled last fall, bravely decided to leave her friend group because of inappropriate behavior. It meant she had to go through a period of loneliness until she found a new group. But the result was friends who matched her values and increased her self confidence. I encourage the girls I counsel to make a list of the qualities of an ideal BFF and then observe their peers at school to see who matches that list. Those who do are the ones she can start to connect with.

Ask your child what are the activities they’ve done in the past that they want to continue and why they love doing them.

Are they interested in trying new ones? How can they do that?

Finally, ask their intentions for personal growth this year.

How can they stretch out of their comfort zone, branch out, take risks and grow? This could look like joining new clubs, sitting with different kids at lunch, raising their hand more in class, not comparing themselves to their peers as much and showing up as their true self instead of a version made to fit in.

Giving kids more autonomy helps them become more self motivated, which leads to higher engagement in whatever they’re doing. This results in them being more willing to persevere when challenged. The effect of all of this is that they will own the results of their efforts and experience greater fulfillment.

The time to let go of the responsibility for homework is now.

They may falter at first because they are used to you jumping to the rescue. Be patient. When they come to you with problems, listen, commiserate and then ask, “What will you do?” They’ve got to learn to solve their own problems before they leave the nest and fly off to college. & TIM JORDAN, M.D., IS A BEHAVIORAL PEDIATRICIAN WHO WORKS WITH GIRLS IN GRADE SCHOOL THROUGH COLLEGE.

STUDENT STANDOUTS by stephanie wallace

SIENNA YAZDI OF UNIVERSITY CITY HIGH SCHOOL SIENNA YAZDI BELIEVES ACCESS TO AND UNDERSTANDING TECHNOLOGY shouldn’t be limited by things like age or gender.

The University City High sophomore’s interest in coding and computer science grew out of helping her grandparents make FaceTime calls. Now, she’s founded a Girls Who Code chapter at her school and offers free technology tutoring to residents at a local senior living community.

Where did your interest in technology come from?

One of my aunt’s friends works for Kode with Klossy, and she told me about the summer camp. I applied and was accepted. I learned to code in CSS and JavaScript and worked with a great group of girls. It was awesome to have a supportive environment and community. Tech and computer science can be a little intimidating because they are such male dominated fields. It was nice to be surrounded by other girls who were facing similar issues How did you get involved with helping seniors with technology?

I started when I was young, just helping my grandparents. It was sometimes difficult to communicate with them because they live in Florida. I helped them learn to use their phone for things like FaceTime. With the pandemic, I realized that other older adults might be struggling to connect with loved ones through technology.

I reached out to a senior living community to see if they were looking for volunteers to help residents become more comfortable with their electronics. For the past couple months, I’ve been working with a woman once a week. We practice starting Zoom meetings, and I’ve set up an email for her. She’s learning really quickly!

When did you establish the Girls Who Code chapter at your school?

I started the club last year because I knew I was very lucky to have gotten to experience Kode with Klossy. A lot of kids at my school don’t have access to programs like that. I wanted to create a place where girls could have a space to express themselves through code. It’s been going great. Last year, we met over Zoom, and I’ve been working with the club’s adviser to figure out how we can meet this year safely.

What do you enjoy about coding?

I love expressing myself through computer science. It’s like a magical world. When I put my time and effort into writing code, I can create something amazing. It’s really rewarding. I’m taking a computer science class at school this year, and I’m looking forward to diving deeper into the subject.

What do you enjoy doing in your free time?

I’m on my school’s tennis team. It’s a great group of girls, and we’re all really close, which makes practice much more fun. I’ve started taking glass blowing lessons. I’m not really great yet, but I look forward to doing that more this year. I also love to bake with my younger brother.

It’s really fun, and we can create desserts to share with our family.

A LONG HISTORY HUMANE SOCIETY OF MISSOURI

by stephanie wallace WHEN IT WAS FOUNDED IN 1870, the Humane Society of Missouri dedicated

itself to helping the abused and neglected. Now, more than 150 years later, it provides important care for animals in need. Along with being the largest provider of adoptable pets in Missouri, it is committed to ending the cycle of abuse and overpopulation through rescue efforts, spay and neuter programs, and educational classes.

While the Humane Society is known for its rescue and adoption efforts today, those services weren’t always a part of its objectives. “We started with the mission to help draft horses that were abused and neglected in the 1870s,” president Kathy Warnick explains. “One of our first big projects was installing water troughs throughout the city to ensure they could have adequate hydration.” At the turn of the century, the nonprofit started advocating for dogs, cats and other small animals. It also worked to help children, a necessity due to the lack of orphanages and other institutions to support them at the time. While the children’s services ended in the 1930s, the broader focus on animals remained and evolved into the programs offered today.

In the 1960s, the Humane Society Animal Cruelty Task Force was founded. The task force responds to more than 18,000 reports of abuse and neglect annually. The public can file reports online or by calling 314.647.4400. In 1988, Longmeadow Rescue Ranch was created as a haven for horses and farm animals. Another ongoing initiative the organization is proud of is SNIP, the Spay/Neuter Incentive Program, which launched in 2001. Since the nonprofit began tracking procedures, animal intake in local shelters has decreased by 40%. “We’re very proud of that statistic because it means we’re making real progress regarding pet overpopulation,” Warnick says. “Our history means we can focus on the most important elements of animal welfare, and we have the track record to show it.”

The Humane Society is independently funded, so donations and fundraising are integral to its survival. To make its mission possible and celebrate its anniversary, the nonprofit is hosting its 150 Years & Counting Gala on Nov. 6 at The Ritz-Carlton. Guests will get the opportunity to meet Barn Buddies from Longmeadow Rescue Ranch as well

HELP & HOPE:

SUICIDE PREVENTION AWARENESS MONTH by stephanie wallace

September is Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, a time to shed light on a topic that is too often stigmatized.

According to the National Institute for Mental Health, suicide is the 10th leading cause of death in the United States.

While it may be difficult to discuss, it is important to remember that with compassion and the proper support, suicide is preventable. We reached out to two local nonprofits dedicated to providing access to mental health services to discuss the work they do and the issues they’re facing.

PROVIDENT BEHAVIORAL HEALTH Provident Behavioral Health is dedicated to making quality behavioral health services accessible to all. Associate director of counseling Brianna Massey notes that suicide prevention is a cause that should be important to the state of Missouri as a whole. “Every state is given a rank for its suicide rate, with 50 being highest,” she explains. “Missouri ranks 39th and has a higher suicide rate than the national average. Statistics show that people in rural areas are more at risk, which is likely because they encounter more barriers to mental health services.”

Provident’s crisis intervention measures include its 24/7 hotline (314.647.4357). “We’re part of the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline’s network of crisis centers, and we answer around 4,000 calls a month from people actively contemplating suicide,” Massey notes. “The hotline is an important tool for reaching people who wish to remain anonymous and may not otherwise receive services.” Provident also offers counseling and psychiatric services, creating a comprehensive approach to mental health.

During the pandemic, Massey says the nonprofit’s services have seen an increase in demand. “People are more stressed and feeling lonely, so they may be struggling with anxiety and depression,” she notes. “We’re seeing that more people are opting not to discontinue therapy, so our counselors are starting to develop waitlists.” Provident is hiring more staff to meet the increased demand, and at its Access Center in downtown St. Louis, people can schedule appointments on short notice with student therapists for $5 a session.

“We never want to turn anyone away,” Massey says. “If someone reaches out, we’re going to do our best to help them access the support they need.”

INDEPENDENCE CENTER “Access to mental health care is truly a matter of life and death,” says Eve Kincaid, a community support supervisor at Independence Center. “It’s estimated that more than 12 million people have serious suicidal thoughts, and there are around 1 million suicide attempts annually in the U.S, but the proper support and treatment can save lives.” Independence Center works to provide a full spectrum of services to adults with severe and persistent mental illness using a clubhouse model, a type of psychosocial rehabilitation that focuses on strengthening an individual’s abilities.

The organization’s services include employment programs; organized community support; psychiatric care and counseling in partnership with Washington University; housing, including 24-hour monitored care; and health care that focuses on all dimensions of wellness. “We offer a holistic approach to improve people’s quality of life,” Kincaid explains. “Mental health and suicide prevention cannot be handled in a vaccuum. If you just focus on one facet of the issue, such as access to medication, suicidal ideation can reoccur due to other factors and stressors.”

Independence Center is working with the Zero Suicide initiative, a program dedicated to transforming health and behavioral health care systems to move toward safer suicide care. “We’re implementing practices with the aspirational goal of making suicide an event that never occurs in our community,” Kincaid says. This month, the nonprofit also will release an episode of its mental health podcast, “Let’s Rethink This,” on suicide prevention.

To listen to the podcast and get more information about Independence Center, visit independencecenter.org. & FOR IMMEDIATE ASSISTANCE WITH SUICIDAL THOUGHTS, YOU CAN REACH OUT TO THE NATIONAL SUICIDE PREVENTION LIFELINE AT 800.273.TALK (8255) OR TEXT HOME TO 741741 TO CONNECT WITH THE CRISIS TEXT LINE FROM ANYWHERE IN THE U.S.

COVER STORY

SHOW YOUR LOVE WEST COUNTY CENTER

by stephanie wallace

PHOTO: COLIN MILLER OF STRAUSS PEYTON PHOTOGRAPHY

WHEN YOU THINK OF WEST COUNTY CENTER, its iconic dove immediately comes to mind. The symbol dates back to the center’s grand opening in 1969, when Famous-Barr released the birds in celebration. “The dove became a landmark for West County Center,” marketing director Sean Phillips explains. “It points toward the west because in the late 1960s the metropolitan area was expanding in that direction.

It represents peace and hope for St. Louis’ growth.” Now, the symbol is at the heart of a new initiative to celebrate the community’s connection with the center.

The Dove Love program lets shoppers show their love for West County Center by putting a heart-shaped magnet on their cars. Through Nov. 24, shoppers with magnets have the opportunity to win more than $1,000 in prizes, including gift cards and merchandise. There’s also the chance to win a $100 gift card to the West County store of your choice by posting a selfie with #ihavedovelove to Facebook or Instagram with your car magnet or in front of the Dove Love flower wall in the restaurant village at the center. “We started the Dove Love initiative last year with an art display and continued it this spring with the Birthday Buddies program,” Phillips says. “This is part three, and we wanted to take the opportunity to give prizes to people who love the center.”

Dove Love magnets can be picked up for free at seating areas throughout the mall or participating stores, including Things Remembered, Attic Salt, J. Jill and Hallmark.

Eric Tschannen, one of the new owner’s of West County’s Hallmark, is excited about what the program represents. “It’s really about building community and continuing to strengthen that bond,” he says. “At Hallmark, we’re all about helping people connect with others, so Dove Love is right in line with our values. We hope people participate and enjoy it.”

With Tschannen and his partners taking over management of Hallmark at West County, the store now is locally owned. He notes the local ownership comes with benefits, including a better understanding of the St. Louis market and faster fulfillment thanks to their warehouse in Illinois. “We’re closer to our community than someone making decisions in a boardroom states away,” he says. “We really like being at West County Center. It’s a beautiful location full of great businesses.” He adds that

WEST COUNTY CENTER MARKETING DIRECTOR SEAN PHILLIPS AT THE DOVE LOVE WALL

people can look forward to a lot from Hallmark as the holiday season approaches, including its ornament launch in October and an open house in November.

Hallmark isn’t the only recent addition of local ownership at West County Center.

Pure Perfection Candles specializes in all-natural home fragrance and self care items alongside on-site candle making. In addition, the center recently welcomed sports memorabilia shop Chesterfield Baseball Cards. Opening later this fall, Amerinkas will offer Native American inspired gifts, decor and apparel, and shoppers will be able to explore a wide selection of home decor at Home Sweet Home. “Guests are always looking for unique items, and our new stores offer a wide range of merchandise,” Phillips says. “And these only scratch the surface of what’s new at West County Center, including the reopening of the Starbucks kiosk just in time for pumpkin spice latte season. We hope people will come out and see all we have to offer.” &

Reality Check

BY PATTY HANNUM

Who in their right mind would take their dad to Burning Man? More importantly, who would agree to appear on the reality TV show Temptation Island when you are a good-looking guy with a thriving dental practice? That would be Blake Eyres, D.D.S., a St. Louisian looking for love, marriage and, eventually, kids.

Temptation Island features four couples who aren’t quite sure if their relationships are solid, so they head to a tropical location (Maui, this season) where they are thrown together with a bunch of beautiful eligible men and women to see what happens. Blake actually was recruited to be one of the show’s sexy singles. A casting director reached out to him via Instagram to see if he might be interested in participating in a different show. Blake vetted the casting director to make sure he was legit, but the first show didn’t work out.

The casting director then reached out with an offer to be on Temptation Island. Since it was the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic, the timing was finally right for Blake to step away from his practice.

For the two weeks Blake was in quarantine, he watched season two of the show. This gave him a pretty good idea of how the game was played. He knew he was unlikely to find love but wanted to do this for the experience and adventure. While he did make it to the final bonfire, he told his potential love interest ahead of time that he would not be pursuing anything after the show.

What the show doesn’t let audiences in on is the boredom that many of the contestants feel. They are cut off from family and friends for five weeks. No books are allowed; there is no gym for workouts; it’s just a lot of hurry up and wait. I wanted lots more details, but sadly, Blake can’t talk about everything.

Still, he was a good sport and willing to play a quick round of fast questions/answers.

Mark L. Wahlberg is the host. Were you disappointed it wasn’t Marky Mark?

Initially. But Mark was my favorite person, really the nicest guy.

Do they make you take your shirt off?

No, but it is really hot in Maui.

How did your patients react?

They loved it.

Did your friends make fun of you?

Yes. Every Tuesday was like a panic attack about what they were going to watch.

How many women slide into your DMs? Too many to count. I wish I could have made a coffee table book out of them.

What is the best toothpaste?

Crest or Colgate. Anything with the ADA seal.

I will be honest, during our entire interview, I kept waiting for Blake to say something that brought some reality TV drama. Nothing. Just a nice, smart guy. So, I offered my services to set him up with a few women. Well, he currently is seeing someone. I asked if she was the one. ‘No comment’. I can confirm he has not yet been to a jewelry store! You can follow him on Instagram @dr.blakeeyres. &

Caring for Kids with Cancer by julia m. johnson

With September designated as National Childhood Cancer Awareness Month,

it’s an important time to remember the serious impact of pediatric cancers on families and communities. Dr. Amy Armstrong, a Washington University oncologist with Siteman Kids at St. Louis Children’s Hospital, says childhood cancer cure rates have increased significantly due to treatment advancements, but it’s still important for parents to educate themselves and be alert for possible signs of disease.

LEARNING YOUR SON OR DAUGHTER HAS CANCER CAN BE overwhelming ...

“Improved cure rates are driven largely by our success in treating leukemia, the most common childhood cancer diagnosis,” Armstrong says. “In leukemia, abnormal white blood cells take over the body’s bone marrow production, and good blood components like hemoglobin and platelets are not made in sufficient quantities. We explain to children that it’s like an auto factory making all the wrong kinds of cars.”

Armstrong says parents should be aware of possible leukemia symptoms including skin paleness, abnormal bruising, and bleeding from the nose, mouth or gums. Tiredness, weakness and pain in the legs, ankles and other joints are other warning signs. “If your child cuts herself and the bleeding doesn’t stop, that can be a sign of low platelets,” Armstrong notes.

“Less commonly, there may be blood in the urine or stool.”

Treatment for the condition depends on the subtype of leukemia, according to Armstrong.

“Chemotherapy is generally the cornerstone, and very rarely is radiation needed,” she says.

“In some more difficult cases, stem cell transplants may be considered.”

Brain and spinal cord tumors make up the second most common group of childhood cancers.

Possible symptoms include persistent headaches, nausea, vomiting, vision changes and loss of balance or coordination. “For these cancers, we tend to think about multidisciplinary care,” Armstrong says. “We, as oncologists, are well versed in chemotherapy and treatments to target cancer cells, but we also have colleagues with expertise in the surgical removal of tumors, and radiation oncologists to provide additional therapy.”

Armstrong points out that, in cases where a child’s cancer relapses or there are other complications, enrolling the child in a clinical trial may be a good option. “Learning your son or daughter has cancer can be overwhelming,” she says. “You have a seemingly healthy child at one moment, and the next, you’re getting a life-changing diagnosis.” Participating in a clinical trial can offer new treatment opportunities while benefiting future cancer patients as well, she says.

“If your child seems out of sorts or is not acting normally, it’s always a good idea to visit your pediatrician, even if you’re not sure there is a problem,” Armstrong advises. “We would much rather err on the side of caution in these cases. As doctors, we know that parents’ intuition is invaluable, because they spend the most time with the child and understand his or her usual behavior the best.”

▶ About 10,500 U.S. children under the age of 15 will be diagnosed with cancer this year. ▶ Cancer is the second most common cause of death in children ages 1 to 14, while the most common is accident-related injury. ▶ In the mid-1970s, the five-year survival rate for children with cancer was about 58%. Today, because of major treatment advances, it is 84%.

September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month After Eleanor was diagnosed with leukemia, she began an innovative combination of therapies through Siteman Kids at St. Louis Children’s — the region’s top pediatric cancer center. Her team of experts created a personalized care plan to successfully fight the disease, and in June, Eleanor rang the bell to celebrate the end of treatment. She is now home, happy and taking her first steps.

HIGH-END FINISHES ADD A TIMELESS QUALITY TO THE HOME’S MODERN, OPEN FLOOR PLAN.” – JULIE LANE

8300 KINGSBURY BLVD., CLAYTON by julia m. johnson

LISTING PRICE | $2,350,000 LISTING AGENT | JULIE LANE AGENCY | JANET MCAFEE REAL ESTATE PHONE | 314.303.6504 Agent Julie Lane says one of the most striking features of this lovely home is its many sets of French doors that allow indoor and outdoor spaces to be enjoyed simultaneously.

“The dining room, library/den and family room all have beautifully crafted sets of doors,” she notes. “You often see homes with French doors that are meant to be decorative, but in this house, they really are functional. You can leave them open and get a wonderful breeze throughout the house because they are a few steps up from the ground, many with Juliet balconies. And when you are entertaining, they create a wonderful sense of openness and flow.”

What else about the home is geared for entertaining?

There is a large dining room at the front of the house, and the beautiful foyer, sitting room, den and library with fireplace are great spaces for welcoming friends and family as well. The kitchen and family room area is large and light-filled, with an open floor plan that allows plenty of room for guests. All of the ceiling heights are at least 10 feet, creating a very expansive feel.

What is the home’s history like?

It was built in 2017, and the original owners bought it while it was under construction, so they were able to choose all of the custom finishes they wanted. They spent about nine months working with the builder, making sure every detail of the home was just right. It’s perfect for that family who would like a new house without having to go through the process of building one.

What are some of the home’s most convenient features?

It offers a good deal of storage, including spacious custom closets and a huge garage with extra room for equipment and supplies. Unfinished areas of the basement can be used for storage, and there is an elevator with access to all floors.

Describe the landscaping.

It’s really lush and beautiful. The original owners lived all over the world, and they had very cosmopolitan tastes, but they also chose native Missouri plants to make the home’s exterior interesting and attractive.

Is the neighborhood walkable and family-friendly?

Yes, it’s perfect for residents who like to be active. You’ll see people out walking all the time, including families with young children and babies in strollers. There is a great mix of neighbors, and it’s easy to walk to Clayton shops and restaurants without having to cross busy streets.

What else makes the property appealing?

This house checks all of the boxes for buyers who want a home that is adaptable. Its large, open spaces, beautiful floors, attractive moldings and other features provide the perfect canvas for modern or traditional decorating tastes.

FROM THE

BLOG OF… DECORATING WITH VINTAGE-STYLE ART Choosing art for your home can be a difficult process, but it doesn’t have to be! Select a style that will always be chic: vintage. Whether it’s a small oil painting or a larger pastel piece, we’re rounding up our favorite vintage-style art pieces and showing you how we love to style them.

What is Vintage-Style Art? Vintage-style art is classical, simple and lovely. It’s inspired by the small-scale romantic oil paintings and the Impressionist movement of the 19th century. Our favorite pieces feature beautiful pastoral scenes and capture the simple moments of everyday life. Colors can be lush or muted, and the art is often framed in gold or silver tones How to Decorate with Vintage-Style Art Vintage-style art will bring a classic feel to your interiors, which in turn will make the space feel cozy, warm and inviting. We recommend hanging two pieces together, whether that is side by side or stacked.

This allows you to make a bigger impact with smaller artwork. You also can include vintage-style art in a gallery wall to fill in space and color where it might be missing.

We love the trend of using small-scale pieces in the kitchen. A little landscape looks so charming against your backsplash or on an open shelf. If you are struggling to fill your open shelving, add one or two framed vintage-style art pieces to bring in some color.

Be sure to keep art away from your oven or sink.

Don’t limit yourself to styling small-scale artwork on your kitchen counter. It also looks incredible on open shelving in the living room or an office. Pair it with your favorite books, vases, candles or styling beads for the ultimate impact.

How to Pair Pieces of Vintage-Style Art Pairing art isn’t as hard as you might think! If you have a lot of contemporary or modern art, don’t worry about vintage-style pieces clashing. You can style works with similar colors and tones together. Mixing art styles creates a story of your interests and will have your home looking like a beautifully curated art gallery.

When putting two vintage-style art pieces together, select items from the same collections or with similar subjects to create cohesion.

HOMEWORK

DEAR HOMEWORK,

Your ideas on our Webster Groves home were so helpful that our son would like to pick your brain on his recently purchased 70-year-old ranch.

What can he do to give it a fresher, more modern feel?

Sincerely, —MEANWHILE …

BACK AT THE RANCH.

DEAR MEANWHILE …

BACK AT THE RANCH,

When I first looked at this, I wanted to add a front facing gable over the living room window and front door to give it some vertical counterpoint to the very horizontal facade, but that started to feel too elaborate. Then, I thought about painting the brick a charcoal gray and the window frames black for a more mid-century feel, but without an additional stone garden wall or an entry pergola, it looked a little dull and not very “fresh.”

Instead, I decided to whitewash the brick so it blends better with the stone. The trim stays white except for a few slate green accents. Wider shutters, some brackets and a window box add some space-filling details The new landscape adds the biggest impact. Two groupings of staggered, upright evergreens give the vertical accent the long facade needs. A large urn and flower bed help draw one’s eyes toward the corner entry and echoes the salmon pink on the front door. The existing beds of ground cover are retained.

The overall new look isn’t exactly modern, but it is fresher and has a more up-to-date feeling.

Hope this is helpful, —HOMEWORK

THE BEST OF… Ladue by julia m. johnson

THE CITY OF LADUE CAME TO BE more than eight decades ago when the villages of LaDue, Deer Creek and McKnight merged into one. Original 19th-century farming families such as the Conways, Warsons, Litzsingers and Prices left a permanent mark on the area in the form of street and place names. Today, Ladue is known for luxurious neighborhoods, avenues dotted with mature trees, and famous local residents like the Busches and Bucks.
