Gift merry 'me-time' with festive specials from this chic Dallas spa

Ready to put a little more happy into your holiday? Vivian's Boutique Spa has special packages and holiday services that make the ideal gift for everyone on your list — including yourself.

Holiday services
Cozy Cocoa & Cinnamon Marshmallow Massage
60 minutes, $130/90 minutes, $170
Breathe in the sweet scent of cinnamon as vitamin-rich body oil, combined with botanically based vegan cream, is massaged into the body to release stress and tension. Feel toasty all over as warm stones are used to relax muscles throughout the body.

This decadent delight continues as marshmallow shea body butter is painted onto décolleté for a luxurious neck and shoulder massage. Enjoy this treat all the way down to your feet, as chocolate serum is painted on toes and tootsies, which are then wrapped in fluffy soft booties for a cozy cocoa cocoon.

Warm Spiced Wine Festive Facial
60 minutes, $130/90 minutes, $180
A plush orange-vanilla balm-to-foam cleanser infused with vitamin C and omega fatty acids melts away makeup and leaves skin silky smooth. Skin is also treated to a peptide infusion with FarmHouse Fresh Wine Down Recovery Serum. Chock full of resveratrol (a potent antioxidant made from red grapes), bioactive fruit compounds to help reduce pore size, and organic chamomile extract known for its soothing properties, it’s a powerhouse serum used to help reduce oxidative stresses to skin.

Your facial also includes a luscious lip treatment. Lip polish made from shea butter, cane sugar, and merlot wine grapes is applied to gently exfoliate rough patches. A rich, creamy blackberry balm is then applied to moisturize lips with hydrating vitamins A and E and pomegranate seed oil.

Hot Toddy for the Tootsies Foot Ritual
50 minutes, $95
Soak tired tootsies in a soothing apple toddy bath bomb, made with vitamin E and coconut oil to soften skin. Next is a gentle exfoliation with FarmHouse Fresh Bourbon Bubbler Body Polish, made with brown sugar, Kentucky whiskey, and rice bran oil.

Dip your toes in a butter rum plant-based paraffin made with shea butter and jojoba oil, and unwind as fluffy soft booties wrap your feet in cozy comfort. Cinnamon body oil is painted on with a fan brush while a warm stone massage helps relieve tension in the legs and feet. Feel completely relaxed as creamy honey-chai lotion is massaged into skin for a lush, nourishing experience.

Please note this service is a luxurious foot ritual and does not include a pedicure.

Take your relaxation to the next level by adding the Warm Stone Butter Rum Paraffin Hand Treatment ($20) to your Foot Ritual. Enjoy a rich, butter rum plant-based paraffin treatment on the arms and hands. Hands are immersed in sweetly scented moisturizing paraffin while warm mittens help seal in hydration and softness. Relax as you enjoy a warm stone arm and hand massage for a truly luxurious experience, from your hands to your feet.

Unique new coffee shop to open inside Coach handbag store in Allen

Chocolate bag at Coach Coffee Shop

There's a new coffee shop coming to DFW that's riding a hot trend: It's called The Coach Coffee Shop, and it's opening inside the Coach store at Allen Outlet Malls at 820 W. Stacy Rd., where it will debut in summer 2026.

Coach is famous for its collector handbags, but the shop is a new venture for the company, in its efforts to court younger customers and entice them to stick around. There are currently six locations across the U.S., including one in Austin, which opened at The Domain in 2025. But the company has plans to add many more locations around the world, an expansion into tactile experiences to enhance retail sales.

The menu features coffee, espresso drinks like cappuccinos and lattes, cold brew, matcha lattes with rotating seasonal flavors, and iced beverages. The chain has partnered with Stumptown Coffee Roasters, the highly regarded bean purveyor based in Portland, Oregon, to craft an exclusive Coach Coffee blend that's served in the store, described thusly:

"Featuring notes of rich milk chocolate, sweet toffee, and finishes with sparkling blood orange, the blend is a beautiful balance of flavors from Latin America and Indonesia. Bold and versatile, the blend brews both a classic, everyday drip coffee and an elegant espresso."

They also serve pastries, the selection of which varies by store, but might include salted chocolate chip cookies, blueberry muffins, vegan carrot cake muffins, cinnamon rolls, savory scones, ham & cheese croissant, and soft-serve in waffle cones.

There are two signature items:

Tabby Cake — an adorable chocolate treat shaped like Coach’s trademark Tabby bag
Lil Miss Jo Cookie — an edible version of the chain's coffee-cup animated mascot used in their ad campaigns

The coffee shop will be located inside the store, and construction is already underway.

With the opening, Coach joins a big trend of cafes located inside high-fashion retailers such as Prada, Chanel, and Dior, which debuted a rare location of Cafe Dior By Dominique Crenn — featuring a menu designed by the acclaimed chef — at their store in Highland Park Village in 2025.

According to a release, in addition to the Coach Coffee Shop, two other new stores are opening at Allen Outlet Malls: Timberland Outlet, known for creating rugged outdoor gear for men, women and children, opening next to Bath & Body Works; and Psycho Bunny, cult menswear brand that debuted in New York in 2005, opening next to Karl Lagerfeld.
