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

    Rachael Abrams
    Dec 4, 2013 | 9:59 am

    December is the time of year when our shopping excursions become gift-finding missions. Whether you're looking for friends, family, a significant other or yourself, we recommend hitting new boutiques and revisiting old favorites. Have yourself a merry little shopping extravaganza at these 10 Dallas stores.

    Banana Republic
    Beginning December 5, Banana Republic's L'Wren Scott collection is available in stores and online. The designer, known for her stunning red-carpet gowns, created a colorful collection for the mid-priced retailer. Think sequins, jacquard, and lots of pink and red.

    Canary
    Stylemaker Merry Vose is at it again. After building a strong clientele at Cabana, she opened a second boutique boasting pieces from up-and-coming designers. The chic space, splashed with canary yellow and elegant art, is filled with finds from Nilli Lotan, The Row x Linda Farrow, Each X Other and Crippen.

    Chapter Two
    Need a gift for the gal who has everything? Brian Bolke's new bookstore, next-door to Number One, carries a plethora of magazines and exquisite books by esteemed publishers. Chapter Two's eclectic collection includes tomes on architecture, cooking, fashion and interior design that anyone would be proud to place on the coffee table.

    Ermenegildo Zegna
    Nestled in the heart of Highland Park Village, Ermenegildo Zegna offers luxury menswear straight from Italy. Think made-to-measure and day-to-night looks in a variety of rich textures and soft fabrics. Zegna also carries fragrances, leather accessories, eyewear and shoes.

    Hadleigh's Baby
    Hadleigh's has opened a pop-up shop for tots near the original in Highland Park Village. You won't see anything less than luxurious here, including Italian cashmere blankets, baby slippers and clothing, as well as children's wear from Little Bean — which moved into Hadleigh's after closing its Junius Heights location. Shop through January 4, 2014.

    Kendra Scott
    The Austin-born jewelry designer has introduced a new Luxe Collection to her long list of must-have baubles. The new collection has a special-occasion feel, with fine gemstones in a variety of rich hues, unique cuts and intricate textures, priced from $175 to $1,000.

    Kim Hoegger Home
    Owner Kim Hoegger has more than 25 years of experience in the interior design business. At her new storefront on Henderson Avenue, she offers design services; vintage finds; new furniture, wall covering and fabric from Thibaut; Amy Howard paint and furniture finishes; and Pine Cone Hill bedding.

    Run On
    Runners will rejoice upon entrance to Run On's new 5,000-square-foot store in Frisco, the ninth locale in Texas. Run On offers a wide selection of shoes and apparel from beloved athletic brands such as Mizuno, Nike, New Balance and more. If you're not sure how to choose the right shoes, experts can help you find the perfect fit.

    Nasher Store Holiday Pop-up Shop
    One of our favorite gift shops has popped up at NorthPark Center just in time for the holidays. Find unique home decor, artwork and jewelry from the likes of Paul Schneider, Jonathan Cross, Nicole Porter and B.Stellar.

    Neiman Marcus
    Neiman Marcus fashion director Ken Downing has curated a special collection of gifts for the holiday season, ranging from handbags and jewelry to pajamas, sweaters and home decor. With pieces from the likes of Tory Burch, Alexander McQueen, Jonathan Adler, Bedhead and Nest, you can find something stylish for everyone on your list.

    New giant Quge-tip from Dallas-based Q-tip sells out in 24 hours

    Q-tip's Quge-tip

    A giant version of an everyday product has sold out in 24 hours: Called the Quge-tip, it's a 6-foot version of the iconic Q-tip, the beauty staple that's been around for more than a century.

    Measuring nearly six feet from tip to tip, Quge-tips feature enlarged swabs and a sturdy stick modeled after the original Q-tips swabs design.

    The Quge-tip was released on December 9 and sold exclusively online in limited quantities for $35. Alas, according to a spokesperson for Dallas-based Elida Beauty, the parent company of Q-tip, the product flew off the virtual shelf.

    "Now that they’re sold out, Q-tips is surprising fans with social giveaways," the spokesperson says.

    The Quge-tip is one of two products just released by Dallas companies — both of which feel like they could be April Fools Day jokes — except that both are for real.

    Dave & Buster's Claw Purse Dave & Buster's Claw PurseD&B

    Dave & Buster's Claw Purse
    The Dallas-based eatertainment chain is leveling up holiday gifting with the debut of the Claw Purse, a limited-edition purse designed by Chain. The Claw Purse is inspired by one of the brand's most iconic games — the claw machine — and according to a release, is "the season's most unexpected fashion statement" for anyone who loves bold style, nostalgia, and a little bit of play.

    To mark a milestone for the brand, the Claw Purse launches alongside the expansion of Dave & Buster's Human Crane, a viral, full-body game experience that turns guests into the claw — where they are lowered down into a bin of huge prizes to grab whatever they choose.

    Beginning in December 2025, the Human Crane will appear in over 112 Dave & Buster's locations with additional stores rolling out nationwide throughout the season.

    But back to the purse: It made its debut at Chain's Holiday House, an event at the company's HQ in L.A., where "it quickly became a crowd favorite among creators, stylists, and culture icons," or so says the release. Which also calls this "the first creative collaboration" between Dave & Buster's and Chain, bringing together Dave & Buster's beloved gameplay with Chain's signature culture-forward point of view. So maybe there will be more collaborations in the future.

    Q-tip's Qugetip Q-tip's Quge-tipQ-tip

    Q-tips Quge-tips
    The Quge-tip is a nearly six-foot supersized version of the "iconic" Q-tip cotton swab, first invented in 1923 and the go-to for beauty, baby care, first aid, cleaning, and everyday moments that call for a gentle, precise touch.

    The six-foot Quge-tip features enlarged swabs and a sturdy stick modeled after the original Q-tips swabs design — offering a new way to experience an iconic tool at a dramatically large scale, designed as a playful, oversized tribute.

    The release nots that Quge-tips tap into a rising trend of consumers using Q-tips swabs for alternative tasks, which now make up a meaningful share of cotton swab use: From dusting high shelves and cleaning hard-to-reach corners to large-scale art projects.

    The six-foot Quge-tip features enlarged swabs and a sturdy stick modeled after the original Q-tips swabs design — offering a new way to experience an iconic tool at a dramatically large scale.

    The company insists it's a real thing — they do a very funny video mocking late-night ads for cheap products — and that after debuting at qugetips.com on December 9, they sold out of their initial run. One note: They do not reveal how many Quge-tips were sold. It could just be, like 10 that were for sale.

    There's a chance they'll be doing another issue, and they encourage interested shoppers to diligently follow their social media.
