Before venturing out into entrepreneurship, many tried and true methods of preparation are available on the road to owning a business. You can gain experience as an employee or gain an MBA. But one path to becoming the boss flies stealthily under the radar: the United States military.
For this month’s fashion shoot, we asked our local boutiques to send an outfit that a southern gal could wear to an oyster roast or fall festival. As the weather turns cooler in the Lowcountry, the focus is on layers and thoughtful accessories.

It’s funny how the same thing can seem wildly different to different people. To some, cilantro adds a flourish of herbaceousness to Mexican street food. To others, it tastes like soap. It’s much the same with pickleball.

When you think about all the games we played to pass the time as kids, it doesn’t take long at all to rattle off a list. Of course, this was long before the smartphone changed everything. Heck, I am even talking pre-cable TV and remote controls. Can you imagine our kids living through such a time?

Bartending isn’t just about pouring drinks. If it were the extent of their craft, anyone could do it. Right now, there are robots out there mixing mudslides and piña coladas. But that’s not bartending; that’s just mixing drinks.
And that’s the easy part. What makes a good bartender isn’t how they masterfully blend ingredients into a toast-worthy cocktail; it’s how they blend personalities. It’s how they can be your closest confidante on a day when you just need to vent over a stiff one. It’s how they can tame a whole bar full of unruly tourists with just a few words. It’s how they will toast your best days with your favorite drink, prepared before you’ve even asked for it.
A robot can mix you a drink. But a bartender will be your therapist, your cheerleader, and if necessary, your babysitter. And that’s why we’re thankful they’ll always be there.
