This past weekend, we co-hosted a party with our close friend, Sara Scheible, to showcase one of our favorite dishware companies, Dishique, in Dallas. For four girls who love events and parties, why not host one of our own? Sara was so sweet to host the event at her place in uptown. It was the perfect excuse to have a girl’s day and indulge in sweets, blood orange mimosas, and do a little shopping! In case you aren’t familiar with Dishique, be sure to see our post here for more information about the company. Whether you are looking to stock your house for the perfect dinner party or find a custom gift for your next wedding shower, Dishique has you covered. Take a look at some of the pictures from the event and check out their website to see how you too can host an event!

No party is complete without mimosas! We chose a Blood Orange juice to spice up our favorite morning cocktail.
The Dothan, AL plate is our favorite of course, since it represents our hometown!

Being as though we are millennials in today’s society, there’s no denying our love for the Olsen twins. From their days as the crime-fighting duo to their current state of fashion-forward icons, Mary-Kate and Ashley will always be two of the most iconic stars in our eyes. Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you know the Olsen twins have launched two very successful lines of fashion: The Row and Elizabeth and James. Elizabeth and James is their more contemporary line with prices that fit my budget and happily fill my closet. The Row, on the other hand, is their couture collection carried in almost 200 stores throughout the world. The Row embodies the styles we usually associate with the twins – over-sized pieces, vintage-inspired, neutral colors, silks, etc.

Mary-Kate and Ashley have recently announced their very first retail location for The Row, and what better location than Melrose! Keeping with their under-the-radar facade, The Row is a modern and simplistic location behind a corridor of offices, which once housed the production studio of Neil Diamond. The twins aimed for the store to feel like a home by simply mixing clothing and accessories into the decor of the store, complete with a living room, dining room, and outdoor pool.
By carrying The Row’s entire collection, Mary-Kate and Ashley hope to give the store a showroom effect for shoppers to have access to all of their pieces. When asked if this retail venture could spark a similar opening for that of Elizabeth and James, the twins admitted it could be a possibility in the future depending upon the success of The Row. Be sure to stop by their new location next time you are on Melrose, and keep your fingers crossed for more locations to come!

One of our favorite aspects of living in Dallas is the countless events and openings that occur every single week. We stopped by one of my new favorite stores, Planet Bardot, for their recent launch party and had such a blast. Don’t get me wrong, I love shopping at luxury department stores, but I definitely consider myself to be more of a boutique shopper. Planet Bardot has a wonderful location right on Knox St, and they have everything I need for any occasion. It’s the perfect spot to pop in for new candles, FREECITY loungewear, or just some fabulous new pieces for your closet! I stopped in one afternoon after a brunch at Taverna and the employees are absolutely wonderful. With brands like Fornasetti, Helmut Lang, Rebecca Taylor, and Joie, Planet Bardot is definitely a go-to for all things trendy.

Be sure to snag a pair of our favorite Yosi Samra flats!

One of my favorite wardrobe staples would have to be my Barbour coat. What I love most about this coat is the classic shape that will forever be in style. Normally I pair it with jeans and boots for a sporty Fall look, but I paired it with a casual dress and my favorite ankle booties for a sunny afternoon in Deep Ellum this past weekend. Click here to see where you find your Barbour coat!
