Joe Carter Classic Recap in a Word—AWESOME!

Yes, one word sums it up. The fourth annual Joe Carter Golf Classic was nothing less than totally and completely awesome! And we have been thrilled to be a part of such a fun event that raises funds and awareness for the Children's Aid Foundation since the very beginning. While we've got stories galore, sometimes pictures can say it all. So, without further ado, here is the Lug photo recap of the Joe Carter Classic Gold Tournament.

The Stretch Clinic: Dr. Nat and Gary (the massage therapist we once brought into the office) were providing warm-up stretches and massages. Kinda makes you want one right now, no?

What's Hot For Summer? Sunset Orange!



With the winter weather fully behind us, summer and its warmth are in sight. Time to re-evaluate our closets, pull on some brighter pieces, and add some fun back into our wardrobes. Here at Lug® our color of the month is Sunset Orange, so let's start there! We are thrilled about the impending season and this sprightly hue. What color says summer more than orange? 
Sunshine, bonfires, and popsicles are what come to mind! Orange expresses energy, exudes warmth, enthusiasm and excitement. It is no coincidence that variations of this color have been popping up in trends - both on the runway and in the home - for the last few seasons. Nectarine  (PANTONE® 16 – 1360 TCX), which is a sister hue to Lug®’s Sunset Orange, has been chosen as …drum roll please...one of the top ten colors for Spring/Summer 2013!
Orange and Lug® are synonymous. This color is featured not only in our Logo, website and catalogs, but it is also exhibited on accent walls throughout our office! We feel quite comfortable with this daring hue, but we also understand the apprehension that comes along with it. Try pairing Orange with neutrals like Grey, Navy & White. These anchor colors provide balance and allow the accent to take center stage.
Lug® offers a variety of options to help you navigate the waters of Sunset Orange. Some might prefer to start small and incorporate accessories like the Clipper & Flipper. Our cross body bags, such as the Skipper or Flutter will add a pop to your wardrobe when you are on the go, or dive right in and grab one of our larger pieces like the Puddle Jumper to really make a splash. 
There are no rules with Orange - Whatever zest is your pleasure! So whether you choose to incorporate this trend in subtle way, or go all out making a bold declaration, have fun and live your life in color!
How do you incorporate Orange into your daily life? Will you be buying a piece for the summer to incorporate the trend?

Getting Excited for the Joe Carter Classic!

We sent a couple of lovely Luggers (Hi, Julia and Gen!) to the Joe Carter Sponsor Appreciation BBQ on Monday. It was at G98.7FM, and the ladies got a little tour of the radio station and had a meet and greet with Mr. Joe Carter himself! As if we weren't already excited about the Joe Carter Classic, now we can hardly contain ourselves! Check out the event details here
