FABULUSH

Two friends from the Paris fashion industry, Laure Heriard-Dubreuil and Milan Vukmirovic dreamt of running their own boutique and followed that passion all the way to Miami, Fla. Located in a historical Art Deco building in the heart of Miami Beach, Fla., The Webster has become known worldwide as a multi-brand boutique devoted to luxury fashion with an exclusive selection of unique pieces.

The Webster at Target includes apparel and accessories for women, men, kids and baby with a Miami, Fla. vibe. Taking inspiration from The Webster’s décor, the shop’s iconic wallpaper is reinterpreted into the banana leaf print found throughout the collection, while the two-way deco print pays homage to the Miami Beach Art Deco district.

Ranging in price from $7.99 to $49.99, The Webster at Target collection will be available May 6, 2012 at all Target stores and Target.com. Kids, baby, along with women’s shoes and select styles in plus and petite are exclusive to Target.com.

The first of November is kicking off to be a fashion filled day with both Kelly Wearstler and Diane Von Furstenburg both appearing at NorthPark Center in Dallas.  Take a long lunch or play a little hooky to meet the fashion legend and CFDA President Diane Von Furstenburg and take a whiff of the latest extension of the DVF empire – the DIANE Parfum.

From her signature silhouettes to her bold prints, Diane von Furstenberg is synonymous with effortless chic.  “Everything I know about seduction is in the bottle,” says von Furstenberg.

Created in collaboration with industry maven Chantal Roos and master perfumer Aurelien Guichard, DIANE opens with bold notes of Frangipani, intertwined with subtle hints of Violet and base notes of myrrh, musk and patchouli. The style of the scent is much like how any lady should be: powerful, seductive, and feminine.

Close to the skin, fluid, and enveloping. Created for all and unique for everyone, Diane’s fragrance is built up like one of her dresses: it wraps up a woman’s body and stays with her all day long. DVF is known for all her inspirational words and quips of how to be lady, leaving us with, “Be the woman you want to be.”

Sephora at NorthPark Center, Dallas. 8687 North Central Expressway. Meet and Greet beginning at 2:30PM.

Tonight while you root on the Rangers, head to the Bishop Arts District for Dallas’ first ever Pop-up bar. In clandestine speak-easy style, you’ll walk into a garage building that has been transformed into a place of libations and perhaps some sinful delight. You’ll pony up for some tickets in lieu of cash, whisper your favorite flavors and liquors you fancy, and watch the mixology magic happen as you support a few great charities.

Find your way a bit past Bolsa at 828 W. Davis St and make sure to stop by soon, as Bar 828 is lasting only for a few weekends in October leading up to the opening of Michael Martenen’s ‘High and Rye’ off Main St. The concept is taking New York’s guerrilla style Pop-Up shop ideas and fusing it with pre-Prohibition style times. Mingle with some indie artists, meet your next Uptown cutie, and watch your bartender take an ice pick a chunk of ice block to chill that creative cocktail of yours.

Michael Martensen has assembled a roster of top mixologists, designers and artists from the area, who have signed on to volunteer, with the proceeds benefiting Falling Whistles and Promise House, a local charity that helps runaway teens get off the street.

The FALLING WHISTLES Tour Bus will be in attendance and spreading its powerful message to the masses. As seen on and supported by a slew celebrities and peace activists, the Falling Whistles campaign launched with a simple response – be a whistleblower for peace in Congo.

Proceeds go to rehabilitate and advocate for war-affected children. Share their story and speak up for them. What began as a story exposing the world’s largest and deadliest war, has become a campaign for peace in Congo. Make their weapon your voice and rock a conversation starting piece of jewelry in the process.
