Animal Emergency Critical Care

animal_critical_careIf your child gets injured I am sure you know exactly where to go. You know where the nearest hospital is, you know exactly how to get there, and you even know how long it will take you to drive there. But what if your beloved pet is the one in need of emergency care? Do you know who to call, where to go? What if it is after hours and your vet’s office is closed?

Animal Emergency Critical Care, a partner practice of the LifeCentre, is Loudoun County’s only full-service veterinary 24 hr emergency, critical care, and specialty service. We had the privilege to tour their facility across from the Leesburg Corner Premium Outlets and were very impressed with what they have to offer. In the event of a sudden pet emergency, illness or trauma, you can turn to them for superior and comprehensive care, diagnostics, monitoring and therapy 24 hours a day, every single day of the year. Your pet’s health and comfort is their number one priority.

Urban Retreat

urban_retreatAFTER SIX SUCCESSFUL years in business, Urban Retreat owner Cynthia Schneider finds herself taking more time to enjoy the color gray, admire streamlined furniture styles and better cater to her legion of devoted customers and store fans.

It was 5:00 pm'ish somewhere in Southern California as Urban Retreat chic furniture store owner Cynthia Schneider pulled over to take my call. "I'm so sorry to do this (interview) over the phone while in the car," Schneider lamented. “No apologies required,” I shared. I was grateful for the time to connect and believed Schneider's own customers would be just as grateful to know she spent most of her day furniture shopping on the West coast exclusively with them in mind. Based in Reston, Urban Retreat is a "wholesale retail furniture warehouse offering low-cost, custom made residential furniture."

BEST CLOTHING BOUTIQUE: Misguided Angels

misguidedangels2ONCE FELLOW CO-WORKERS, boutique owners Carol White and Kim Hutchings spent years trying to find the perfect job. Their search for career utopia ended with the launch of their Brambleton-based, fashion-forward women’s clothing store aptly named Misguided Angels.

Ever heard of the Fashion District in Los Angeles? Nikki B., an Ashburn-based Yelp.com reviewer, reports that the Brambleton-based Misguided Angels boutique reminds her of just that. “I’m not a fan of boutiques, but I have to admit this one grows on me,” states Nikki about the shop. “This store is definitely on the edgy and trendier side. It reminds me of the LA Garment District.”
