Style Session : Copper Penny Boutique

For this week’s Livin’ Upstate Style Session, we took a short trip down the street to Copper Penny Greenville—a boutique that transforms into pure holiday magic this time of year. If you have a special lady on your list, need a festive outfit for an upcoming party, or want a quick, thoughtful stocking stuffer, Elizabeth Hughes and her team at Copper Penny are ready to help.

The moment you walk through the door, you’re greeted by the unmistakable scent of Christmas. Elizabeth shared that their holiday candle collection has been flying off the shelves—and for good reason. The warm, cozy fragrance of Frasier Fir, along with other seasonal scents, fills the entire boutique and instantly puts you in the holiday spirit. These candles make the perfect hostess gift, mother-in-law present, or last-minute grab-and-go item right before a party.

But it’s not just the smell of the season that steals the show. Copper Penny looks like a holiday celebration brought to life—full of sparkle, shine, textures, and statement pieces.

This Season’s Trends: Sparkle, Fur & Statement Prints

Elizabeth walked us through some of the biggest holiday trends, and this year, it’s all about having fun:

✨ Sequins & sparkle — A must for holiday parties
💎 Jewel tones — Rich, bold colors that always shine this time of year
🐆 Animal prints — Leopard and cheetah prints are everywhere and add flair to any outfit
🧥 Fur accents — Fur vests, shrugs, and toppers are back and pair beautifully with dresses

The holidays offer the perfect opportunity to show personality—mix patterns, layer textures, and put on those brighter colors and bold jewelry pieces you don’t get to wear every day.

Styling Help for Every Shopper

If you’re unsure how to mix patterns, match colors, or choose the right accessories, Elizabeth and her team are more than happy to help. They can put together a full look from head to toe or help elevate something you already own with the right shoes, jewelry, or finishing touches.

Guys, Take Note: Gift Cards Are a Lifesaver

If you’re not sure what to get the women in your life, Copper Penny makes gifting easy. They offer:

🎁 Gift cards
💍 Jewelry add-ons
👜 Fun gift items paired with the card

And they’re open all the way up until Christmas Eve—perfect for last-minute shoppers.
