A whimsically redone mid-century modern home in Forest Hills close to White Rock Lake is on the market.

A new season means new colors to try, trends to check out and shopping to do. Kick off this year the right way with the annual Beauty Live event at The Galleria mall April 2 -3. For one weekend, the Southwest’s premier shopping destination will be the epicenter of the beauty industry.

If you’re a plain Jane drinker, you should think about skipping Four Lounge. As uptown’s specialty cocktail haven, it seems reasonable that the location should be understated in its swankiness, which is why it was so easy to miss Four Lounge entirely if you weren’t looking directly for it (it’s behind State and Allen, next to the barber shop, by the way.)

The Roll Call Gala at The Crescent Hotel Saturday night kicked off the 100th anniversary year of the Dallas Chapter-area of the Red Cross.

The Dallas International Film festival takes over the city again beginning next week, with a flurry of galas, parties, red carpet madness and of course, incredible films. We welcome filmmakers, actors and appreciators to our fair city for over a week of movie-watching mayhem.

Here’s a list of the most tantalizing.

Because residents of Dallas like things, well, just so, there is Eric Olschwanger. Perched above the North Dallas Tollway in what could be deemed some sort of elvish workshop, Olschwanger and his small crew of jewelry wizards craft unspeakably beautiful baubles; all special, made-to-order pieces just waiting to be treasured by his discerning clients.

Film, music, interactive : the holy trinity of the South by Southwest festival, which wrapped it’s 25th anniversary event this weekend in Austin. As usual, thousands flocked to the city from all over the world to behold some of the best and newest to come out of these three segments, comprised of industry professionals, appreciators and simple die-hard fans.
