Celebrating: Reese Witherspoon took to Instagram on Wednesday to share her pride over the opening of her lifestyle brand Draper James' first shop in Nashville, Tennessee

Along with the emphatic caption, Reese shared a photo of the outside of the store's brick building, which was sweetly painted in white with bright blue stripes.

The shop had the name painted in script along the side, and also prominantly displayed the brand's darling logo.

Reese launched the lifestyle brand, which was named after her grandparents - Dorothea Draper and William James - on May 6.

Self promotion: The Oscar winner frequently sports items from her line, including this Collection Jeweled Dress - which retails for $595 - which she sported at the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Show and Tea at Chateau Marmont on Tuesday

Day time- event dressing is sometimes the hardest look to get right. You don't want to look too casual, but that can put you at risk for looking too dressy.

It's a fine line to walk! But Reese walks it just fine for this afternoon tea party celebrating the CFDA Fashion Fund.

She looked at ease in her white embellished shift dress by her own label, Draper James. A brand that she recently created to honor her southern roots.

While it may be seasonally inappropriate to wear this dress on the east coast, LA is still enjoying their perennial good weather.

But regardless of seasons, it's always good to have a dressy-day time ensemble in your closet. To keep you ready in a pinch-- this dress is perfect for wedding fetes, to business meetings.
