LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

We all know that February can be a dreary month in the St. Louis metro area, but never fear – the Ladue News team is here to help.

On p. 30, LN fashion contributor Katie Yeadon provides fun and flirty outfit inspiration that’ll make you ready to pop the champagne and seize the day.

What lifts a mood more than a story about rescue animals, I ask you? On p. 17, LN assistant editor Emily Standlee shares a behind-the-scenes look at R&R Ranch Miniature Horse Sanctuary and talks with the people holding the reins.

Personally, nothing makes me feel better than beautiful works of art. On p. 52, LN associate editor Charlotte Renner interviews the leaders behind Opera Theatre of Saint Louis’ new inclusive program redefining modern opera in the metro area.

Speaking of modern innovation, LN contributing reporter Connie Mitchell speaks with the locally based architectural design collaborative that is reimagining office space in the age of hybrid and remote employment on p. 16.

Wishing you a brighter February ahead.
