Recently, I went to meet owner Shannon Sturdivant and PR gal Bee Lee (one of your <a href="http://surveys.dmagazine.com/10MB/" target="_self">10 Most Beautiful Women in Dallas nominees</a>) and if memory serves me correctly—although it often does not—Shannon called the vibe “flirty chic.” If she didn’t, then <em>I’m</em> calling the place flirty chic. It’s elegant with its black chandeliers and gorgeous light fixtures and wall sconces, but totally girly glam with hot pink walls and stripes&#8211;check it out after the jump. This sets the mood for getting the two awesome treatments offered at Lash Studio: NovaLash eyelash extensions and <a href="http://www.bronzebiologic.com/" target="_blank">Bronze Biologic</a> airbrush tanning. Shannon applies each extension one lash at a time for the most realistic look using NovaLash, her favorite U.S.-made lash line, which is said to last up to eight weeks. (We&#8217;ll let you know when we&#8217;ve tried it ourselves.) You can get a <a href="http://lashsudiotx.com/lashstudiobrochure.pdf" target="_blank">full set</a> for $250 or <a href="http://lashsudiotx.com/lashstudiobrochure.pdf" target="_blank">The Flirt</a>, which is a partial lashing of the outside corners, for $150. Other services on the <a href="http://lashsudiotx.com/lashstudiobrochure.pdf" target="_blank">menu</a> include colorful lashes in brown, blue, green, and purple and glittery lashes (hello, Halloween!), and Discrete Lash, a travel service to your home so the paparazzi (or your nosy neighbors) don&#8217;t discover your faux lash secret. Bronze Biologic, also a U.S.-made product, is an airbrush tanning solution that uses only botanical ingredients for a chemical-free golden glow, only $35. Lash Studio is also planning to be host to girl’s parties—think bachelorette, bridal and birthday—where girls can gather for a little beautifying and champagne sipping. Check out at Lash Studio at its West Village home at 3699 McKinney Ave., Ste. 400 or click <a href="http://las75204.vipguestservice.com/Default.aspx?AspxAutoDetectCookieSupport=1" target="_blank">here</a> to make an appointment.</p>

<p>The folks at <a href="http://www.myintimacy.com/homepage.html" target="_blank">Intimacy</a> call themselves &#8220;bra fit specialists&#8221; and it certainly sounds like they are. They not only help women find their perfect size but also teach us how to avoid back fat (thank goodness!) and what it takes to extend the life of your lingerie by using proper cleaning techniques. What I&#8217;m most excited about though are their free thirty minute &#8220;bra makeovers&#8221; where you&#8217;ll meet one-on-one with an Intimacy fit specialist. Appointments are private so you don&#8217;t have to worry about standing there half-naked with a group of strangers discussing your breasts. The store, which opens at NorthPark on August 18 (between Dillard&#8217;s and Macy&#8217;s) carries over ninety sizes from A through K cups. Now that&#8217;s a lot of bras. The store is stocked with goods by European designers like Lisa Charmel, Aubade, La Perla and Prima Donna. These people are not only serious about bras but also, about making women feel as beautiful as possible &#8211; right down to their undies. Make your <a href="http://reservation.myintimacy.com/" target="_blank">bra makeover appointment</a> today; I made mine!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-4172" src="http://shoptalk.dmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/littlebean-300x300.jpg" alt="little bean shop" width="300" height="300" />In the current <a href="http://www.dmagazine.com/Issues/D_Magazine_AUG_2009.aspx" target="_blank">issue</a> of <em>D</em>, I wrote about an adorable vintage-inspired children&#8217;s line called <a href="http://www.dmagazine.com/Home/2009/08/01/Dallas_Moms_Molly_Holley_and_Jennifer_Paradise_Launch_Childrens_Clothing_Line_Pout.aspx" target="_blank">Pout</a> and a few other tid-bits on cute things for kids. It seems that this is one category of retailers and fashion unaffected by the recession. Kids stores and clothing lines seem to be popping up everywhere, including two new stores worth mentioning in Dallas. Christine Visneau, designer of clothing line, <a href="http://www.babybeanwear.com/home.asp" target="_blank">Baby Bean Vintage Daywear</a> has decided to open up a shop for tots, Little Bean, that&#8217;s stocked with cute clothes (including her own line) and unique accessories, gifts, and art from independent designers. <a title="link to little bean website" href="http://www.littlebeanshop.com/main.sc" target="_blank">Little Bean</a> (pictured at left) is tucked away in East Dallas&#8217; historic Junius Heights neighborhood (5308 Junius St.), where Christine&#8217;s sewing machine is on site for made-to-measure requests and spur-of-the-moment creations that you won&#8217;t find anywhere else. Also be sure to stop by Mockingbird Station to check out the recently opened (<a href="http://kronikle.kidrobot.com/erykah-badu-at-kidrobot-dallas-grand-opening/" target="_blank">Erykah Bad</a>u attended the Grand Opening party last week) <a href="http://kidrobot.com/" target="_blank">Kidrobot</a>. The gallery-store sells limited edition art toys and apparel, many collectibles.</p>

Mai-Le Nails in the Old Town shopping center is not fancy—no massage chairs or complimentary wine or anything like that—just quick and basic manis and pedis. Until recently, I was completely fine with that. Then something happened. Construction started on a new nail place just around the corner in the same shopping center. The sign for the old tenant, Beauty First, came down and was replaced by a sign for Hawaiian Nail Bar, a local chain with locations in Flower Mound and Irving. So what&#8217;s a girl to do? Do I leave the Mai-Le folks who&#8217;ve been nothing but nice to me all these years and try out the new kid on the block? Or do I let loyalty prevail? ShopTalkers, have any of you been to a Hawaiian Nail Bar? If so, tell me all about it.</p>

You remember that store, right? Lovely home furnishings boutique in Victory Park. Such wonderful chic finds. Oh that&#8217;s right. You probably don&#8217;t remember it because hardly anyone shops at Victory. At least that&#8217;s what co-owner Jon Tutolo (pictured left with co-owner John Bassignani) told me. “Some days I wouldn&#8217;t see a soul. Now, there&#8217;s people walking by my shop. There&#8217;s such an energy here at the West Village,” he said. Though the new store is a 1/3 of the size of the original, it&#8217;s chocked full of candles, linens, lamps, books, furniture, and gifts galore. Couple Haven with Gardens around the corner and you have two of Dallas&#8217; chicest stores (almost) side by side. That&#8217;s some good shopping. <em>Photo by Vanessa Gavalya</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-2537" src="http://shoptalk.dmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/341-150x101.jpg" alt="WTC" width="150" height="101" />I stopped in <a href="http://www.waxinthecity.com/" target="_blank">Waxing the Cit</a>y, an &#8220;exclusive waxing studio&#8221; (you name it, they wax it: brows, ears, nose, lips, legs, backs, bikini, shoulders&#8230;just about any body part in need of hair removal), yesterday to get my eyebrows groomed. I had been getting them threaded for the past two years, but when I heard about this place dedicated solely to the art of waxing, I decided to give waxing another shot. Here&#8217;s the scoop: four friends who are passionate about waxing got together to open Waxing the City in Colorado (two in Denver, one in Boulder) over five years ago and they have now expanded their business to include Dallas (partially due to the fact that there is no place like it in Dallas). Lucky for me, Summer Hartshorn, one of the founders and &#8220;cerologists&#8221; (a  term coined by WTC management; “cera” is latin for wax) was tending the studio (they currently take turns coming to town to run the Dallas location until they find and train proper technicians to take over) and did my brows. I must say, I am very happy with the results. The small, yet functional facilities are very bright and clean, residing on the second floor of 6131 Luther Lane. They use a hard wax, which is less abrasive and doesn&#8217;t leave you with that red-skinned look you can get from the alternative. Bonus: The pricing structure (starting at $9, brows start at $18) and a <strong>no tipping</strong> philosophy makes regular visits easier to keep up with. Rest assured, all of the cerologists go through several months of training at the companies training facility in Denver. Now go and get your wax on!</p>

I haven&#8217;t been by yet, but a friend of mine has and they were impressed. They said they have a great selection of chicken sausages (one of my faves) and produce, and that the cereal they usually buy at other grocers is a dollar or two less there. I plan on stopping by later today. Will give you a full report, unless of course, one of our savvy <a href="http://sidedish.dmagazine.com/" target="_blank">SideDish</a> reporters beats me to it.</p>

I stopped by the store this weekend to check it out. First thought: If they had this around when I was a young fashionista my mom would have been in trouble. The store is separated into sections &#8211; to the right &#8220;Chick&#8217;s&#8221; (size 7-16), to the left &#8220;Dudes&#8221; (size 8-10), and a selection of &#8220;Kids&#8221; (size 4-6x) towards the back. Offerings include adorable mini J-Brand denim shorts and other diminutive denim by 7 For All Mankind, Rock &amp; Republic, Joe&#8217;s Kids, Miss Sixty, Hudson, and It Jeans, tee&#8217;s by Ella Moss, and petite posh pieces by Twelfth Street Girl by Cynthia Vincent, Lacoste, KORS Kids, Alice &amp; OIivia, Moschino, and Ike Behar. Accessories and shoes are available as well. If your kiddos get restless they can jam away some of their energy with a game of <em>Guitar Hero</em>. Overall thoughts: Great place to shop for trendy togs for the little one&#8217;s in your life, but be prepared to pay for them. There was a small rack offering 60% off sale items that&#8217;s definitely worth a look.<br />
What are some of your favorite shops for tots in Dallas?</p>

LAFCO&#8217;s New York team (including owner, Jon Bresler) all flew down for the Highland Park Village store&#8217;s debut last week and I got a grand tour of the sophisticated fragrance shop. I have never smelled so many savory scents in my life, starting with the <a href="http://www.clausporto.com/flash.php" target="_blank">Claus Porto</a> soaps (there are 16 scents to choose from) which are made by a century old Portuguese soap making company that is highly regarded throughout Europe. Each bar is milled seven times for the finest finish (lasting three times longer than other soaps the same size). The artful packaging, created using the same paper stock, embossing techniques and screen printing methods from decades ago, makes them great for gift-giving (many on my list will be getting them). Don&#8217;t worry guys, you aren&#8217;t forgotten. Be sure to check out the Musco Real men&#8217;s face and body collection. The shampoo/shower gel is perfect for the man on-the-go and all products are reasonably priced, starting at just $10. The shop is also the exclusive importer of infamous <a href="http://www.lafcony.com/smn/?gclid=CKbF5qq7yJYCFRJuxwod-2utxw" target="_blank">Santa Maria Novella</a> (founded in 1221) products for men, women, children, and more (they even have fragrant fire-starters for the fireplace). Also find candles that are packaged in colorful art-deco glass (that can be recycled), Eau d&#8217;Italie fragrances, Linari diffusers, and <a href="http://www.artecuoio.com/inglese/home.html" target="_blank">Arte &amp; Cuoio</a> leather goods.</p>

Renowned luxe apothecary, <a href="http://www.lafcony.com/" target="_blank">LAFCO</a> (<span class="Apple-style-span" style="#000000;">luxury articles and fragrance company) </span>New York, is set to open in October at Highland Park Village. They will stock all European imports including the famed <span class="Apple-style-span" style="#000000;">line <a href="http://www.lafcony.com/smn/" target="_blank">Santa Maria Novella</a>, made by the most prestigious and oldest pharmacy in the world</span>. To read more about the new addition and see what Jon Bresler, owner and founder of LAFCO New York has this to say about coming to Dallas, follow the jump. <span id="more-362"></span><br />
“The exceptional location of Highland Park Village, the first shopping center in America and the epicenter of luxury and prestige in the state of Texas with its Historical Landmark status, is the perfect fit for LAFCO’s stable of luxe lines” says Mr. Bresler.  “We cater to those in search of the best in niche perfumery and extraordinary artisanal bath, body and home fragrance products.”<br />
LAFCO’s new 600 square foot space, designed by Creative Director, Vincent LaRouche, is adorned with sleek, Italian limestone floors and large bay windows original to the chic, early 1930’s Spanish design. LaRouche stripped down the space to its barest minimum to create a clean and modern luxury environment. Contemporary solid natural oak cabinets imported from Italy and designed specifically for the space are highlighted by black lacquered doors and counter tops.  LaRouche had the brick walls painted white and collaborated with stylish Brooklyn furniture designer Eric Slayton to create special display fixtures of oxidized metal and glass giving the space an edgy and sophisticated &#8220;downtown New York&#8221; feeling.<br />
Lines featured in the store are:<br />
LAFCO House &amp; Home candles – The luxury candles that created a sensation from the first day that they were launched; a candle for every room and every home.<br />
Claus Porto 1887 &#8211; Luxury Bath and Body Products from the century old Portuguese soap making company that Mr. Bresler launched in 1995 (get date)<br />
Lorenzo Villoresi – Perfumes by the world renowned master perfumer himself<br />
Eau d’Italie -Fragrances and body care from the famous Le Sirenuse hotel in Positano<br />
Linari &#8211; The finest Room fragrances in the most exquisite bottles<br />
More than half of the store’s space is devoted to the centuries old Florentine apothecary SANTA MARIA NOVELLA, first opened in 1210 and the creator of the “Water of the Queen” for Catherine de Medici (Later popularized as “Eau de Cologne”). The amazing fragrances, bath and body products, men’s grooming products, herbal teas and chocolate have a world wide following of loyal customers, from celebrities to dignitaries to all lovers of luxury.</p>

Say the powers that be (read: PR): &#8220;Inspired by a glamorous and free-spirited sensibility, the store embodies the modern elegance of the Cavalli world and sets a new standard for the innovative use of materials and design.&#8221; Expect to find women’s ready-to-wear, accessories, and eyewear collections, plus a 250-square-foot VIP section with velvet-covered wall. (Something tells me the only way I&#8217;ll see the VIP area is if I&#8217;m invited on a press tour.) The grand opening of the Roberto Cavalli boutique will coincide with this year&#8217;s <a href="http://www.northparkcenter.com/fatp/index.html">Fashion at the Park</a>. On October 10, Dallas gets its own runway show, a replica of the fall/winter show in New York, and Roberto Cavalli will be in attendance.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At first I thought this was just another baker jumping on the cupcake craze, but I popped into Snider Plaza&#8217;s new addition to take a peek and was pleasantly surprised. A mother-daughter team recently opened this contemporary women&#8217;s shop which stocks casual to cocktail attire, accessories, and knick-knacks. Find lines such as <a href="http://zovala.net/" target="_blank">Zova L.A.</a>, <a href="http://hypeclothesonline.com/" target="_blank">Hype</a>, <a href="http://www.solowstyle.com/" target="_blank">So Low</a>, <a href="www.lizzieparker.com" target="_blank">Lizzie Parker</a>, <a href="http://www.fortunedenim.com/" target="_blank">Fortune Denim</a>, Aidan Mattox, <a href="http://lineapelle.org/" target="_blank">Linea Pelle</a>, and MaryGold Designs (local jewelry designer) &#8211; many Dallas exclusives. It&#8217;s only appropriate that they offer up cupcake curiosities such as lipgloss, charms, and mini-confections to munch on while you shop.</p>
