As bell-ringer-in-chief, Larry Robinson strikes the keyboard and pounds the floor pedals that make a thunderous melody flow from the 53 bells at the top of Richmond's Carillon tower. The heavy chiming reverberates through Byrd Park below. Yet, says Robinson, "It's amazing how many people in Richmond don't seem to know much about [the Carillon]."

About to plant 250 white begonias in one of three outdoor gardens at her home in Hillcrest, Robin Campbell asked the friend who had just stopped by, "What am I doing? I don't want to do this anymore. I feel chained." And so she put her house on the market; within the week 
it sold at the asking price. "It was blind faith," says Campbell. "After 
that it was like, ‘Now you're pregnant and you have to deliver.' "

As she approached her 60th birthday, Renée Bullano wanted to put a little glam back into her wardrobe. A former home-economics teacher, Bullano now instructs students with disabilities about employment and helps prepare them for the workplace. Her job as a transition coordinator doesn't require formal business attire. "I've fallen away from anything dressy at all," Bullano says, admitting to wearing her curly hair the same way for 12 years. Bullano, who lives in Chesterfield County, says she wanted to develop a more polished look. "I hope to work five to eight more years and I want to feel and look vibrant." With that in mind, wardrobe and style consultant Diana Seaman of Radiant Style Made Simple took the 5-foot-3 Bullano shopping, found the perfect dress and 4-inch heels, and arranged a morning of pampering.
