    Where To Shop Now

    Where to shop in Dallas right now: 10 must-hit stores for September

    Diana Oates
    Sep 14, 2016 | 2:57 pm

    With fancy store openings and several reopenings, Dallasites have quite a list of places to check out this month. How will you ever decide where to shop first?

    Christofle
    The luxury silversmith is now open for business in Highland Park Village. Christofle is known for flatware and silver trays; however, gifts and accessories such as frames, candles, baby gifts, and desk accessories add depth to the brand’s first Dallas boutique. Customization and engraving, along with gift wrapping and comprehensive cleaning service, are available.

    Draper James
    Reese Witherspoon’s Southern-inspired fashion and lifestyle brand opened the doors to its Highland Park Village store earlier this month. The 1,800-square-foot boutique features ready-to-wear, accessories, and home products in a variety of seasonal prints. The Dallas store marks the second brick-and-mortar location for the brand.

    Kendra Scott
    Your favorite Texas-based jewelry designer wants to decorate your nails too. The Kendra Scott Nail Lacquer collection is now in stores and features 23 shades, including a top coat and base coat. Bold signature hues like the popular Pink Agate are priced at $16, and drusy-inspired shades are $18.

    Neiman Marcus
    Dallas-based jewelry company Akola is launching a new luxury line available at Neiman Marcus, and 100 percent of sales will be socially reinvested to help women in poverty around the world. Akola was launched by Dallasite Brittany Merrill Underwood as the first full-impact jewelry brand in the luxury space. All jewelry is created and produced entirely by impoverished women in Uganda and Dallas

    Pockets
    Shop this traditional men’s boutique — for a new suit or everyday wear — as it celebrates a grand reopening post flood damage. While at the Plaza at Preston Center, check out the recently unveiled installation by Houston-based artist Michelle O’Michael, which sits in the heart of the center, in the circle drive.

    REI
    Dallas-based brand Hari Mari is now offering its signature flip-flop at Texas REI stores, where they will be stocked year-round. This launch is followed by a spring 2017 rollout of Hari Mari across 32 REI locations nationally. One percent of the brand’s sales benefits Flops Fighting Cancer.

    Suitsupply
    Just in time for fall, men can now browse the highly anticipated Rocket Man collection at this West Village clothier. The collection includes suits, jackets, coats, knitwear, shirts, trousers, and shoes.

    Tory Sport
    Tory Burch recently debuted a boutique in NorthPark Center dedicated to its activewear brand, Tory Sport. It’s the first store of its kind to open outside of New York. Located on the first floor between Neiman Marcus and Nordstrom, shoppers can expect clothing, bags, shoes, and accessories ranging in price from $65-$575.

    TTH Forty Five Ten
    Forty Five Ten’s latest concept has opened in Highland Park Village, replacing Five & Ten. Forty Five Ten’s vice president and creative/fashion director Taylor Tomasi Hill curates her namesake store that is set to sell clothes, jewelry, shoes, handbags and gifts. Lines include Harvey Faircloth, Alexander Wang, Faith Connexion, Kule, Rosie Assoulin, Jacquemus, and Fallon.

    Tuesday Morning
    Several of these Dallas-based discount stores are sporting a new look. The Plano store represents the company’s latest prototype, with new fixtures, flooring, improved lighting, and a redesigned store layout. The Preston Center branch got a makeover with new fixtures, flooring, and improved lighting; the sales floor was nearly doubled. The company is also expanding its inventory of upscale and brand-name home goods.

    TTH Forty Five Ten is now open at Highland Park Village.

    Spa Castle Korean bathhouse in Carrollton reopens after renovation

    An Asian spa is about to celebrate a grand reopening: Spa Castle Texas, located in Carrollton at 1020 Raiford Rd., will re-open on January 1, 2026, following a multi-million-dollar renovation.

    Established in 2012 as a retreat combining traditional Korean bathhouse culture with modern resort amenities, the facility closed in late July with a plan to bring refreshed pools, enhanced saunas, modernized locker rooms, and hydrotherapy systems.

    The renovation was designed to elevate performance, reliability, and the guest experience, while staying true to its Korean “jjimjilbang” roots.

    A jjimjilbang is a large, 24-hour Korean public bathhouse and spa featuring gender-segregated wet areas with hot tubs and saunas, plus unisex zones with themed dry saunas like clay and ice rooms. Some also have snack bars, sleeping areas, and entertainment options like TV lounges or PC rooms. In Korea, it functions an affordable destination for families and a cultural hub for relaxation, socializing, and wellness.

    Dallas has not only Spa Castle but also King Spa, a similar facility that opened in 2008 on Royal Lane in Dallas' Koreatown district. There is also a Spa Castle in New York.

    Highlights of Spa Castle's renovation in Dallas include:

    • Re-Engineered Hydrotherapy Experience: Upgrades to indoor and outdoor pools, saunas, and hydrotherapy systems to deliver a more authentic Korean bathhouse experience.
    • Reimagined food and beverage menus featuring traditional Korean street food, barbecue, and beverages.

    A day pass is $65 for adults on weekdays and $80 on weekends; for 17 and under, it's $45.

    Phase II
    The re-opening marks the completion of Phase I of Spa Castle’s renovation.

    Phase II, slated for spring 2026, will include upgrades to the on-site boutique hotel and the expansive 8,000-square-foot banquet and event space, to position Spa Castle as a destination for weddings, corporate retreats, and special events.
