Summer Shoe Follow-Up

Do you love our July feature on Summer Shoes? Well check this out:

Today at Sussie’s in Frisco, we found these open-toe nude booties and fringe sandals ON SALE! That’s right, in the back section of Sussie’s (which is actually a second location for Pumps in McKinney) we spotted these on-trend shoes for 50%-75% off!

Seriously, they’re practically free. So you need them. Now.

Get the Look: Carrie’s dress from SATC 2!

We all knew it would only be a matter of time before clothing labels started copying Carrie’s white dress from the opening scene of Sex & the City 2. Hers is from Halston Heritage (she’s the label’s creative director, natch!) and has a price tag of $325, but a handful of more affordable lines are giving you the look for less.

Check out this black version by Soda Blu that we spotted at Melanie Gayle in Dallas:

We like the black–it’s a little more evening-appropriate and doesn’t scream “carbon copy.”

A Fort Worth Must-See: Byrd & Bleecker

So check it out. One of our editors made a trip to Ft. Worth recently and she found the cutest stationery/gift shop. Now, I’m not usually one to go gaga for stationery, so clearly this one is a goodie. Here’s her take:

Tucked away on Park Hill Drive in Fort Worth, just seconds from TCU’s campus, lies a charming stationery and gift shop, Byrd & Bleecker. Unlike typical stationery stores where designs come in cookie-cutter cardboard boxes, Byrd & Bleecker offers eye-catching and original gifts like Jonathan Adler candles, one-of-a-kind bookends and a wide variety of letterpress stationery—enough to make any bride or socialite giddy with excitement. These were just some of my favorite things…

How amazing is this chandelier? Wind, water and tear-proof, it is made of Tyvek, and is only $95!  Adorable décor for the patio, I must say, and it comes in Fading Red, pictured above, Lime-Lemon, White, and Fading Lilac.

How amazing is this wall full of invites, announcements, and personal note cards? This is just a glimpse of the designs the shop carries. Byrd & Bleecker carries an assortment of brands, most of which cannot be found anywhere else in Texas—true uniqueness if you ask me!

Card candy! How cute! Each card has a catchy phrase on it—my personal fav: “I want your bad romance. Badly.” Super fun and a great way to add a laugh to any gift.

If you’re in the Fort Worth area, be sure to stop in—you’re in for a treat!
