Oct 26, 2022 3:30 PM by Jeanne Prejean

Please don’t tell Mother Nature that North Texas is having the best weather ever today. You just know she can't take a compliment.

Jul 14, 2022 5:30 PM by Jeanne Prejean

Despite Emily Post’s rule that black tie attire was only to be worn after 7 p.m., the Dallas Museum of Art tossed that idea to the wind on Tuesday, May 10. After all, it’s not every day that the Cartier and Islamic Art exhibition had a VIP reception starting at 6 p.m. However, Mother Nature must have gone by Post’s claim as the setting sun was still a bit blinding via the Hamon … [Read more...] about Cartier And Islamic Art VIP Reception Was A Feast Of Top-Tier Types In Black Tie And Standout Looks

The next few days are going to be loaded with rain for North Texas. The good news? We need the rain. The not-so-good news?
