    Happy Spa-lidays

    As the Christmas chaos ensues, it’s time to stop and say "spaaaaaah."

    Dallas' spa scene has grown in recent months, and some existing spas have added new services especially for the holidays, like minty pedicures and candy cane-scented massages.

    Here are a handful of spas doing special things to entice those who are weary from holiday tasks or ready to indulge in some blissful peace and quiet. There's no better way to "sleigh" holiday stress. (Don't forget gift cards make great gifts, hint hint.)

    Hiatus Spa + Retreat
    The Dallas-based spa — which conveniently also has locations in Frisco, Plano, and Fort Worth — is looking to spread lots of holiday cheer with its limited-time Yuletide treatment ($195 for 85 minutes). Start with an aromatic foot soak while inhaling scents of blood orange, cardamom, and pine needle before moving on to a detoxifying back and hand exfoliation using the spa’s white sage and spearmint charcoal body polish. The treatment continues with a warm body butter and hot stone massage and ends with a holiday version of the Old Fashioned cocktail to keeps spirits bright. The spa is also offering a limited-time special on Gua Sha ($95 for 45 minutes), an ancient Chinese facial technique that increase circulation and boosts overall skin health. Spa hours vary by location, but all are open seven days a week.

    Well & Being at The Westin Dallas Stonebriar Golf Resort & Spa
    Opened just this summer as part of the hotel and golf resort’s recent $30 million top-to-bottom renovation, the full-service spa offers body treatments like CBD oil body wraps and yellow corn and lime body polishes along with massages and facials. Limited time “SPA’liday Retreat” services include the Candy Cane Lane Massage with peppermint-infused body oil, and the Fa La La La Facial that comes with exfoliation, steam, a personalized mask, and anti-stress facial massage. Both services (each $150 for 50 minutes) end with a comforting cup of hot peppermint tea in the relaxing lounge. Bonus: each service also comes with a full-sized spa retail gift worth $100. The spa is inside the Westin Dallas Stonebriar at 1549 Legacy Dr., Frisco and is open daily at 9 am.

    Thompson Spa at the Thompson Dallas
    A $460 million renovation to Dallas’ original First National Bank building resulted in a luxury high-rise that’s now the Thompson Dallas hotel, opened just over a year ago. That nearly half-billion dollars also resulted in one snazzy spa, which opened later in January. From infrared saunas, “Black Diamond” facials and hot and cold plunge pools, the spa has it all, including a festive limited-time pedicure called Mistle“toes.” The treatment ($75 for 50 minutes) begins with a sparkling minty bath soak followed by a sweet cream salt scrub to remove dry winter skin. Finish with a mint-infused shea butter massage to deck the heels in holiday delight. The spa is located at 205 North Akard St. inside the Thompson Dallas. Spa hours are Sunday and Monday from 9 am-7pm and Tuesday through Saturday 9 am-7 pm.

    Woodhouse Day Spa
    Want to feel connected, resilient, calm, confident, energized or balanced? These are the six "moods" featured on the new Woodhouse spa menu, just introduced in time for the holidays. Each service — from massages and facials to body treatments and nail care — is labeled by which moods they may evoke. To feel resilient and confident this holiday season, try the Deep Cleanse facial ($145 for 50 minutes) recommended for congested skin. To feel calm and balanced, go for the signature Holistic Body Detox ($185 for an hour and 45 minutes), which incorporates dry brushing, a clay mask and a revitalizing Vichy shower. Select your own mood-enhancing aromatherapy oil during the Meditative Mood Soak ($185 for an hour and 45 minutes), which comes with a Body Balance Massage. Woodhouse has locations in Dallas, Plano and Fort Worth and spa hours vary.

    Vivian's Boutique Spa
    The cute Ross Avenue boutique day spa is known for its creative services, and the specialists there have introduced a whole merry menu for the holidays. Try the Spiced Cranberry Cobbler Massage ($130 for 60 minutes, $170 for 90 minutes), which uses cranberry body oil combined with vegan body cream; the Frosted Red Raspberry Custard Facial ($130 for 60 minutes, $180 for 90 minutes), fused with antioxidant-rich berries; or the Orange-Glazed Gingersnap Foot Ritual ($95 for 50 minutes), which involves a cranberry-orange scented foot bath and a cinnamon-nutmeg scrub. There are fun holiday-themed packages available, too — like "Dashing & Debonair" for the guys. Vivian's is at 5420 Ross Ave., Dallas. Gift certificates are available online for last-minute gifting needs.

    Away at the W Dallas Victory Hotel
    New in the former Bliss Spa space on the 16th floor of the W in Victory Park, Away is appropriately named for sweeping its guests away from all stressors at ground level. Services span from hydrating peels, body wraps, manis, pedis, and an array of massages to makeup and hairstyling that take place in “glam chairs.” Those needing a break from the holiday madness should consider the De-Stress Massage ($215 for 80 minutes or $160 for 50 minutes), which uses oils well-suited to clear brain fog. A complimentary detox shot will help you detox from anything holding you back from relaxation. Stress-relieving spa products to build-your-own holiday baskets feature aromatherapy scents in sweet orange, Damascus rose, and cedarwood. The spa is inside the W at 2440 Victory Park Ln., Dallas. Spa hours are 9 am-7 pm Tuesday-Sunday, closed Monday.

    The Milan-based La DoubleJ is now open in Highland Park Village.

    The November edition of Where to Shop, CultureMap's monthly guide to new retail openings and collaborations, highlights everything from luxury fashion and jewelry launches to family-friendly Western boots. This month brings first-time Dallas debuts, designer partnerships, and festive seasonal offerings perfect for holiday shopping.

    Here's where to shop in Dallas right now:

    Abercrombie & Fitch x Kemo Sabe
    Abercrombie & Fitch has partnered with Aspen-based luxury Western retailer Kemo Sabe for its first-ever global retail collaboration. The 12-piece collection features leather belts, prairie dresses, miniskirts, leather-embellished denim, peasant blouses, and a turquoise lariat necklace. Available in both Classic and Curve Love fits, the collection launches online and in stores November 6.

    Dick’s House of Sport x Gymshark
    Gymshark is making its U.S. wholesale debut with a fully branded collaboration at Dick’s House of Sport in Dallas — one of only 12 locations nationally — showcasing popular Power and Vital collections. Mannequins modeled after Gymshark athletes, including three-time Mr. Olympia Men’s Physique Champion Ryan Terry, highlight the space. Apparel and accessories are priced from $16 to $70.

    Indochino
    Custom-suit brand Indochino has relocated from Knox Street to a new showroom in the West Village. The Dallas showroom neighbors other high-end menswear brands such as Suitsupply and State & Liberty Clothing, offering made-to-measure suits, shirts, and accessories in a stylish, modern space.

    Gianvito Rossi
    Milan-based footwear brand Gianvito Rossi has opened its first Texas boutique at NorthPark Center. The 1,800-square-foot space features pink velvet interiors and showcases pumps, crystal-embellished sandals, suede boots, and the Fall/Winter 2025 collection, titled “The Golden Edge,” inspired by Art Deco gold details.

    La DoubleJ
    Los Angeles-born, Milan-based lifestyle brand La DoubleJ, from journalist and vintage collector J.J. Martin, has opened its second U.S. boutique in Highland Park Village. The 1,300-square-foot space includes fashion, accessories, and homewares, plus a collaboration with Austin’s Allens Boots. With the exception of that collab, every single item for sale in the store is made in Italy.

    LeLe Keller x Melissa Lovy
    The new jewelry collaboration from the Dallas-based LeLe Keller launches November 4, featuring versatile everyday pieces with high-grade CZ stones, anti-tarnish coatings, and hypoallergenic surgical steel posts. Highlights include the Sophie Hoops ($158), Brighton Hoops ($188), Coco Studs ($110), and Dee Necklace ($165), inspired by LeLe Keller’s personal collection.

    Market and House of Harlow
    Highland Park Village’s Market has partnered with Nicole Richie’s House of Harlow for the debut of her Hathor and Bespoke collections, beginning November 7. The first is named for the Egyptian goddess of beauty and features necklaces, earrings, rings, and bracelets made with natural stones such as malachite, tiger’s eye, and onyx. The latter is Richie’s made-to-order demi-fine jewelry collection crafted with natural stones and pave diamonds. Richie will appear in-store from 12-4 pm that Friday to meet customers.

    Nordstrom Rack, Prosper
    The discount sibling of Nordstrom, the Seattle-based department store chain, just opened a location at the Gates of Prosper at 1191 Gates Pkwy. # 200, where it joins Target, Sephora, and HomeGoods. The store is a 26,000-square-foot space, featuring off-price apparel, accessories, beauty, home decor, and shoes at up to 70 percent off. This is the 10th location in the Dallas area.

    Ross Dress for Less
    Ross has opened two new locations on the northeast side of Dallas, in Mesquite and Garland, expanding its footprint and offering deeply discounted clothing, footwear, and home goods to value-conscious shoppers.

    Sierra
    The outdoor retailer Sierra — think of it like a TJ Maxx for adventure gear — has recently opened its second Texas location at The Village at Allen (the first was in San Antonio). Shoppers can expect outdoor apparel, footwear, and equipment from popular brands, all at discounted prices.

    Skims
    The first Skims in North Texas is now open at NorthPark Center, located on Level One between Macy's and Dillard's. Founded in 2019 by Kim Kardashian and Jens Grede, the brand has redefined women’s underwear, loungewear, and shapewear with solutions for every body, from everyday comfort to body-shaping essentials.

    Tecovas Kids
    Western boot brand Tecovas is introducing its first children’s collection, bringing mini cowboys and cowgirls the same craftsmanship as its adult boots. Styles include The Annie and The Doc, priced from $95-$125, in sizes ranging from toddlers to age six.

    Texas Christkindl Market
    Celebrating its 15th anniversary, the Texas Christkindl Market returns to Arlington November 21-23 and November 28-December 23, operating daily from 11 am-8 pm. Inspired by the city’s long-standing relationships with German sister cities Bad Königshofen and Rothenburg ob der Tauber, the market brings traditional German charm to Texas. Visitors can shop handcrafted gifts, collectibles, and exclusive Käthe Wohlfahrt merchandise and enjoy seasonal food and beverages, live entertainment, children’s activities, and photos with Santa. The market takes place on the North Plaza of Globe Life Field, with free admission and complimentary parking in Texas Rangers’ Lot B on non-event days.
