It looks great paired with gold and even better with a summer glow – our eyes are on CORAL at the moment.  From stylishly textured dresses from Akris, to simple suede pumps from Vince, find a way to add coral to your wardrobe this season.  This warm hue is one that complements nearly any complexion. We’re smitten with the Keaton Sunglasses from rag & bone and the Stella McCartney shaggy deer zip wallet is EXACTLY what we need for a pop of color when it comes to summer accessories.  Take your pick, this is a chic coral selection you won’t have to dive deep to find.

This Texas heat is serious business, but that doesn’t mean we have to sacrifice style in the name of function when it comes to our summer shoe selection. This summer, invest in a pair of statement sandals that will serve your feet well on balmy days, and carry you late into the night long after the sun goes down.

Here are just a few sandals we have our eyes on. Each pair can be found right here in Highland Park Village!

La Fiesta is a week-long celebration in late May or early June, culminating in the La Fiesta de las Seis Banderas Gala, a formal dinner and presentation honoring the Duchesses and Escorts from the Park Cities.  The young people are then presented as part of a pageant that represents the history of the Six Flags of Texas and the Park Cities.

La Fiesta de las Seis Banderas was founded during the 1986 Sesquicetennial. La Fiesta is a non-profit organization supporting various community beneficiaries and providing ongoing maintenance for the Park Cities Heritage House located at Dallas Heritage Village at Old City Park.  The first La Fiesta was actually held at Highland Park Village.  Since 1986 over $5,400,000 has been returned to our community.

We are so pleased to have some of the La Fiesta ball gowns on display at Highland Park Village at stores including: Anne Fontaine, Billy Reid, Bistro 31, Carolina Herrera, Cole Haan, Escada, Hadleigh’s, Harry Winston, Lela Rose, Peepers, Q Custom Clothiers, Robert Talbott, &Warren Barron.

We are in the final stretch of preparations for Father’s Day, but there’s still plenty of time to show dad how much you appreciate all that he does. If your father happens to be a foodie, why not gift him something that will up the culinary ante? Whether he likes to roll up his sleeves in the kitchen, or prefers to head out for a leisurely evening meal, Highland Park Village has something to satisfy every dad’s cravings.

A few items we’re eyeing for dad this year include this set of knives from Hermes, this leather serving tray from Ralph Lauren, the perfect BBQ tool set plus spices, and an aged cheese to pair with his favorite bottle of wine. It’s a win-win for everybody; dad gets to brush up on his culinary skills, and you get to reap (or in this case, eat) the benefits.

Bon appetite!

While our normal day-to-day bag is a large carry-all of mass chaos, there is something freeing about toting only the bare necessities.

Whether your aesthetic lends to a statement piece or a simple handbag, Highland Park Village has the perfect addition to give you a sartorial boost when your social calendar fills up.

Father’s Day will be here before you know it, and if your dad is as picky as ours, gift giving is no easy task. This year, look no further than a Highland Park Village gift card. Our gift cards take the stress out of gift giving, and give recipients the gift of choice.

Whether dad wants a dapper suit from the recently opened Alexander McQueen, an aged wine from Molto Formaggio, or new gear from Beretta Gallery, our gift cards take the guessing out of gift giving, and ensure a happy recipient.
