Although the first day of summer doesn't hit until June 21, Dallas has been serving up serious seasonal looks for months now. In fact, we are looking for alternative options for summer when it is just too hot to function. Think tennis, golf, and even Major League Baseball. Which of your signature summer looks are you upgrading this month? Find inspiration at these eight shops - along with a Father's Day gift or two.
