Live life to the weekendest.
Your Perks: 1) A plethora of classic Ray-Ban sunglasses for protecting your eyes all stylishly and such. 2) V-necks and short-sleeve button-ups from Jared Lang, your go-to summer shirting guys. 3) Casual dress shirts and blazers. Bring on wedding season.
There’s a new store called Kit and Ace. Inside: racks, shelves and mannequins sporting a bunch of cashmere-blend T-shirts, shorts and henleys (heavier stuff comes this fall). All of it is very soft and very washable. Really, you can wash it. Anyway, swing by sometime if you like being comfortable.
In this corner: Ron’s Place, a casual Addison hangout that’s flush with beers, whiskey
and nachos.
In that corner: A new beer spot near Lake Lewisville called Little Elm Crafthouse. Go there
for draft beers and growlers on your way to the lake.
The takeaway: Two new bars.
Here’s something new and date-related at the Dallas Arboretum. Tonight you can stroll through the gardens listening to strategically positioned musicians, snacking at food trucks (BellaTrino, Ruthie’s) and drinking whatever you packed in your cooler. Like beer, or maybe a juice box.
Because it’s hot out there, Hiatus wants to scrub you with watermelon seeds, cane sugar and mint. That’s followed by a crushed-watermelon wrap and a mint scalp massage, and the whole thing ends with a cocktail. That’s a damn summery massage.
Monta Ellis: gone. But replacing him is Monta Ramen, a from-Vegas noodle joint that won’t help the Mavs but will help your consumption of tonkotsu ramen and chashu pork. And that’s something.
