What would the world look like if you could open up the best closets in town and enjoy the treasures within? It would look like Feminine Fashions Consignment in Fort Worth and Rerun Consignment Boutique in Arlington.

Technically speaking, consignment occurs when independent women in our community offer their closets to be scrutinized by trained professionals who accept only the ultimate fashions. In turn, those items are offered to women like you for over 80% off their retail value. At heart, consignment is the opportunity for you to get the most value for the latest fashions with the greatest satisfaction.

Here are 5 THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT CONSIGNMENT:

1. CONSIGNMENT MEANS CONFIDENCE. We sell high fashion for real women like you. When a woman looks good, she feels good – because she expresses what is inside. Why not reflect your inner beauty? Intimidated? The cost seems too high? Consignment offers the best value for the caliber of clothing. Our professional staff is trained to help you put outfits together, to accent your cur-rent wardrobe and educate you on how to take “the runway” to “the everyday”.

2. CONSIGNMENT MEANS CONNECTION. Consignment is your cure for large impersonal department stores. Consignment is your cure for lifeless online shopping experiences. If you shop with us you will be welcomed by a smiling staff ready to meet your needs – ready to get to know you and adapt to your shop-ping style. Connection means discounts

and connection means community. Con-signment provides both.

3. CONSIGNMENT MEANS QUAL-ITY. Our brand of consignment conquers the resale, thrift and competing consign-ment concepts you may have encoun-tered. Our staff works diligently keeping up with the latest styles, fashions - both high fashion and local trends. Trained professionals work hard each day, ac-cepting only the best, the cleanest, the most desired pieces from our consignors. We reject anything that doesn’t meet your strict standards. No more fishing for bargains. In our boutiques, every item is a treasure worth finding.

4. CONSIGNMENT MEANS CREDIBILITY. Simply put, you can trust us. You can trust our selection. You can trust our staff. You can trust our policies. If you don’t look good in something, we will be gracious and honest. You can feel safe that we value your appearance more than your wallet. You can trust that how you walk out of our boutiques not only reflects your own reputation, but reflects our integrity as well.

5. CONSIGNMENT MEANS COMMAND. Take command of your wal-let, your shopping satisfaction and your confidence – shop consignment TODAY!

Fort Worth, TX - BOLD Fort Worth is presenting a day of focusing on mother-friendly childbirth choices on September 25, 2010. Theatre goers will gather to see the DFW premiere of Birth, a play by Karen Brody, and a Birth Fair will offer new, expectant and future mothers access to professionals and companies who follow the Mother-Friendly Childbirth Initiative. All proceeds from ticket sales and sponsorships will benefit the Tarrant Coun-ty Birth Network. The event is part of BOLD (Birth on Labor Day), a global arts-based movement aspiring to create childbirth choices for mothers around the world.

“Childbirth today is a human rights issue for low-risk pregnant mothers,” states author Brody, who spent a year interview-ing over 100 low risk women before writing her play. “Choices in childbirth have been severely restricted for this large population of pregnant women despite strong evi-dence-based research supporting a wide variety of birth choices.”

Brody founded BOLD in 2006 with the intention to use her play to raise aware-ness and money that promotes childbirth choices that work for mothers. As Brody ex-plains, “Pregnancy today is typically viewed as an illness and emergency. BOLD uses theatre to raise people’s consciousness that childbirth is normal. Once this is recog-nized people will start demanding a child-birth model of care that is compassionate, evidence-based and puts the mother at the center of her birth experience.”

Producer Shannon Blackwell became interested in the play after the birth of her second child in 2009.

“My two different births and the care I received during my pregnancies from my

providers showed me the huge difference in experience a woman can have,” she states. “Being educated and knowing your options are significant factors in walking away from a birth feeling empowered. It is a milestone in a woman’s life and we should celebrate that.”

Blackwell recruited Christi Moore-Murphy, an established theatre director and long time friend, to direct “Birth” after Moore-Murphy delivered her second child via emergency c-section earlier this year.

“We have an amazing group of actors, an unbelievably talented director and a fabulous group of volunteers who are com-ing together for one day to change the way Fort Worth views birth,” Blackwell contin-ues. “And the best part is that our advocacy efforts will continue through the funds we raise for the Birth Network.”

Since 2006 nearly 100 BOLD locations have raised over $130,000 for childbirth organizations. Tickets are available online at www.boldfortworth.org. The play is PG-13 and not recommended for younger children.

The Tarrant County Birth Network is a community organization, with national roots, whose mission is to provide informa-tion about, and advocacy for, evidence-based, Mother-Friendly care for expectant Tarrant County families seeking a healthy, informed, and enjoyable pregnancy and birth.
