Feminine frills take over Highland Park Village, a cult-favorite ice cream brand opens up shop in Deep Ellum, Uptown’s top home decor purveyor forays into tablescapes, and more.
A sneak peek of the NYC-based brand’s spring 2021 collection, featuring florals aplenty
SHOP
We have a sneaking suspicion that even Miranda Priestly would agree—if LoveShackFancy is involved, florals for spring are, in fact, groundbreaking. The buzzy womenswear label, known for its whimsical designs in soft pastels and flowery fabrics, has found a permanent home in Highland Park Village following a successful stint as a pop-up inside the shopping center’s MARKET boutique. Set to open its doors March 4, the chic storefront will house the brand’s signature dresses, skirts and tops along with its line of towels and table linens. 29 Highland Park Village, hpvillage.com; loveshackfancy.com

On Fridays and Saturdays in March, the Girl Scouts of Northeast Texas will sell their prized cookies curbside at the Galleria, with the goal of making up for some of the sales lost as a result of the pandemic.
