Where to shop in Dallas right now: 7 must-hit stores for July

Dallas is experiencing temperatures that make even getting out to shop sound taxing; however, once you get there, the air conditioning feels oh-so-satisfying. So pump yourself up for an afternoon outing perusing these shops with an iced coffee in hand and day dreaming of cooler days, when we can window shop without breaking a sweat.

Arhaus The Loft
Luxury furniture at discounted prices? Sign us up. This outlet-esque offshoot is now open in Grapevine Mills (next to Meow Wolf) and features the brand's same great stuff that just so happens to be discontinued, slightly imperfect, or overstocked. Think indoor and outdoor furniture across all categories included by not limited to dining tables, sofas, sectionals, accent chairs, beds, desks, and lighting. Read more about the new concept here.

Chic & Gold
It's not every day that Dallasites can shop Pakistani artisan-made accessories. This e-commerce shop focuses on slow fashion and is the creation of Munira Syeda, who decided during COVID to blaze this new career path for herself. Born in Pakistan but now living in Dallas, Syeda selects natural materials such as handloomed cotton, which is plant-dyed to create beautiful accessories in small batches. She has plans to pop up around town at Pottery Barn, Kendra Scott, and at the Dallas Farmers Market, where she is a vendor.

Centre Bishop Arts
The cult-favorite Dallas sneaker shop has opened its third DFW location, this time in the bustling Bishop Arts neighborhood. This is your go-to shop for Nikes, Jordans, and other hard-to-source shoes for men, women, and kids. The store also features sports appeal and accessories, plus spaces to hang out and play games while you're there. Read more about it here.

Barbie's House
Barbie Clariday originally founded a home furnishings store in 1999 to serve Houston clients.
