Bountique Pic Info</image:title><image:caption>Courtney Hughes adjusts clothes on a rack in her store, Plush Boutique, Friday, June 22, 2018 in Charleston, Il.

Charleston is a small town full of many local businesses. One that stands out for their constant success is Plush Boutique. The owner, Courtney Hughes, is constantly busy running her trendy shop, which results in her staying later than her shifts requires. She adores running her business in a small town because it enables her to build relationships with her customers. When she's not running her boutique, she's traveling to places ike Los Angeles and Las Vegas to consult with fashion designers. Usually, at the end of these meetings, the designers leave being inspired by Hughes. It's no wonder people keep coming back.</image:caption></image:image><lastmod>2018-06-23T20:11:02+00:00</lastmod><changefreq>monthly</changefreq></url><url><loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/2018/06/23/jordan-landeck-takes-over-as-president-and-ceo-at-charleston-chamber-of-commerce/</loc><image:image><image:loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/jordan-pic1.jpg</image:loc><image:title>Jordan Chamber of Commerce pic</image:title></image:image><lastmod>2018-06-23T20:10:12+00:00</lastmod><changefreq>monthly</changefreq></url><url><loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/2018/06/23/charleston-residents-assemble-40000-piece-puzzle/</loc><lastmod>2018-06-23T20:08:46+00:00</lastmod><changefreq>monthly</changefreq></url><url><loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/2018/06/23/grand-ball-costumes-ships-to-theater-productions-across-u-s/</loc><image:image><image:loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/img_6682.jpg</image:loc><image:title>IMG_6682</image:title></image:image><lastmod>2018-06-23T20:06:50+00:00</lastmod><changefreq>monthly</changefreq></url><url><loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/2018/06/23/woman-in-charleston-brings-pet-lizard-everywhere/</loc><image:image><image:loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/img_1873.jpg</image:loc><image:title>IMG_1873</image:title></image:image><image:image><image:loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/img_1875.jpg</image:loc><image:title>Processed with VSCO with c1 preset</image:title><image:caption>Processed with VSCO with c1 preset</image:caption></image:image><image:image><image:loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/a853b483-b877-4662-8678-eac95ca4413c.jpg</image:loc><image:title>A853B483-B877-4662-8678-EAC95CA4413C</image:title></image:image><lastmod>2018-06-23T20:06:48+00:00</lastmod><changefreq>monthly</changefreq></url><url><loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/2017/06/29/local-artist-uses-his-appearance-to-inspire-quirky-creations/</loc><image:image><image:loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/img_2319-1.jpg</image:loc><image:title>IMG_2319 (1)</image:title></image:image><image:image><image:loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/img_2321.jpg</image:loc><image:title>IMG_2321</image:title></image:image><image:image><image:loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/fullsizerender.jpg</image:loc><image:title>FullSizeRender</image:title></image:image><image:image><image:loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/image21.jpg</image:loc><image:title>image2</image:title></image:image><image:image><image:loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/image2.jpg</image:loc><image:title>image2</image:title></image:image><lastmod>2018-06-21T02:03:45+00:00</lastmod><changefreq>monthly</changefreq></url><url><loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/2017/06/23/anne-banks-chooses-journalism/</loc><image:image><image:loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/img_9815-copy.jpg</image:loc><image:title>IMG_9815 copy</image:title><image:caption>Anne Banks, 18, looks into the distance determined to achieve her goal of becoming a journalist in the future. </image:caption></image:image><lastmod>2017-06-30T19:12:41+00:00</lastmod><changefreq>monthly</changefreq></url><url><loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/2017/06/23/josh-perry-on-the-run/</loc><image:image><image:loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/img_7859.jpg</image:loc><image:title>IMG_7859</image:title></image:image><image:image><image:loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/img_7851.jpg</image:loc><image:title>IMG_7851</image:title></image:image><image:image><image:loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/img_7845.jpg</image:loc><image:title>IMG_7845</image:title></image:image><image:image><image:loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/img_7845-copy1.jpg</image:loc><image:title>IMG_7845 copy</image:title></image:image><image:image><image:loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/img_7824.jpg</image:loc><image:title>IMG_7824</image:title></image:image><image:image><image:loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/img_7824-2.jpg</image:loc><image:title>IMG_7824 2</image:title></image:image><image:image><image:loc>https://illinoisreporter.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/img_7845-copy.jpg</image:loc><image:title>IMG_7845 copy</image:title><image:caption>Warming up.
