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.

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.

Bar 828, 828 W Davis St, Dallas, TX 75208 starts at 6 P.M.

Support the cause and become a whistleblower for peace: FALLING WHISTLES Limited Edition Gold Whistle / FALLING WHISTLES Ox Zinc Whistle / FALLING WHISTLES Original Whistle / FALLING WHISTLES Gunmetal Whistle / FALLING WHISTLES Bronze Whistle / FALLING WHISTLES Copper Whistle / FALLING WHISTLES Brushed Whistle

Haven’t slept a wink due to the Missoni for Target madness, but shop online RIGHT NOW! The selection is even more impressive than the preview images from the look book. Currently, my cart has over $1,500 of Missoni the limited edition collection merch with no end in sight. Out of the 400 piece collection, view the slideshow for our editor’s picks of the creme de la chevron creme.

Some are lining up at their local Target, while others are brewing coffee and getting their clicking finger ready for the kick-off of Missoni for Target collection sale that begins on September 13th. No matter the method of shopping, fashionistas globally are getting ready to scoop up as much Missoni for Target limited edition items; with wallet friendly prices ranging from $2.99 to a $599.99 outdoor patio set.

The Missoni family name is synonymous with their signature zig-zag knitwear and creative use of patterns and punchy colors. Grab your piece of the iconic Italian lifestyle while you can because this collaboration will only be in-stores from September 13th through October 22nd. Target HQ reports certain items will be online-only, though depending on availability.

The pop-up shop on Sixth Avenue at Forty-second Street during Fashion’s Night Out in New York on September 8, 2011 was just a tiny preview of the Missoni madness to come; as the highly anticipated collection sold out within a few mere hours, closing up the pop up shop prematurely during NYFW.

So start stalking Target.com online tonight around 4am EST, when it is rumored they’ll be placing the items on the website. Check back tomorrow as I report my findings and bounty.

Latest Update: Shop the mobile site RIGHT NOW. Limited to Margherita’s Musts Haves at the moment, but enjoy!

MISSONI FOR TARGET IS NOW LIVE! SHOP NOW! **The website is crashing for some people, while still working for others. Many Target stores are now nearly sold out this morning as of 8:05am. Good luck!

Come Sunday, get your fill of Foster the People with a plethora of events in Dallas. The Los Angeles band has been sweeping the nation with their catchy tunes, more-than-what-meets-the-eye lyrics, and boyish good looks. Mark Foster is the leading man, while band mates Cubbie Fink and Mark Ponitus round out the harmonious sounds in their coming soon debut album, Torches. Here’s the low down on what’s in store this weekend…

Starting off at Good Records at 6:30pm – get close and personal with the band as they do a live set in-store. Get there early, so you can score a sweet spot for prime swooning as Mark Foster et al sing a few of their hits. Be sure to peruse the latest records before the performance as Good Records is a haven of ear candy . This one is dedicated for all you cash strapped kiddos, it’s FREE-ninety-nine.
Good Records is located at 1808 Greenville Ave., Dallas, TX 75206.

Immediately following, hustle on over to The Loft for their sold-out show at 7:30pm. The band is on a nation-wide tour after garnering a huge following after Coachella, which has been selling out night after night, city after city. Seriously, catch these boys while you can if they come into a town near you. Tickets were $10, but go befriend a sketchy scalper if you want entry to this standout show.
The Loft is located at 1135 S Lamar St, Dallas, TX 75215.

Cool off at the Joule Poule as the Midnight Summer Session kicks off with Foster the People doing a DJ set. While I have no idea of their mix master skills, with enough cocktails and libations and the simple fact that the people watching alone will be worth the entry fee. Apparently the $40 tickets has sold out, but word on the street is that there may still be some $500 cabanas left. Grab your gaggle of band groupies, throw down some cash, take a dip in the pool overlooking Downtown and lay out underneath the starry sky.
The Joule Hotel is located at 1530 Main Street, Dallas, TX 75201. RSVP to info@thejouledallas.com or by calling 214.748.1300.

For all the skeptics still not convinced, watch their claim to fame below or take a listen to their acoustic XM set of their famed “Pumped Up Kicks”.  See you Sunday, my fellow Lushies!
