OPI has a new Texas Collection of nail polish out, with names like It’s Totally Fort Worth It, Austin-tatious Turquoise, and Houston We Have A Purple. Aww, so cute. But the collection doesn’t pay homage to Dallas, so where is the love for Dallas? We are feeling really left out!
The other nail polishes in the Texas Collection include:
I Vant to Be A-Lone Star
Don’t Mess with OPI
San Tan-tonio
Suzi Loves Cowboys
Y’all Come Back Ya Hear?
Big Hair…Big Nails

White Rock Local Market is held twice a month, according to their website, the second and fourth Saturday. White Rock Local Market is located at The Green Spot, this really cool healthy convenience store, at 702 N. Buckner in Dallas. I had passed the market multiple times but a little write up in the DMN prompted me to stop by on a cold December morning to check it out. The market is small, but not quaint. I brought along my camera and snapped some photos. Enjoy....

Before early 2010, I had often passed dd’s discounts and wondered aloud to anyone listening, “What kinds of discounts does dd offer?”
Despite the messy store, when I entered I discovered a gleaming array of housewares, clothes and products such as hair straighteners.
