Stella Dallas

Last week I had the pleasure of meeting Franki Durbin and spending a few hours with her. She recently moved to Texas and is writing a fun series called "Show Me Your Dallas" on her blog, Life in a Venti Cup. The idea is for Dallasites like moi to act as city ambassadors and take her to a few of our favorite haunts. I was so excited about the idea and about meeting Franki, but I had a hard time choosing my destinations because there are so many awesome shopping stops in Big D. We ended up at Ceylon et Cie and William-Christopher Design. As you can see from my past posts on those establishments, I adore both and loved introducing them to Franki.

Stella Dallas was another store that I was considering for our SMYD date because it's a favorite of mine as well. I hadn't been by in a while so I dropped by there yesterday. As usual, they had an amazing assortment of furnishings, decor, stationery, and lots of other pretty things in between. Anyhow, I wanted to share some pics of the store to show of their cool merch...

What a great sofa (by Shine) and mélange of pillows, right?

Stunning carved mirror...

Rockin' little photo frame...
 They have fab vignettes all of the store like this one, most mix new and vintage pieces...

For the silhouette-obsessed...

They recently started carrying John Robshaw which mixes in well with the rest of the merch.

Stunning, jewel-toned chandelier...

They carry Designer's Guild bedding...

 

Classic sofa paired with John Robshaw pillows and a modern lacquered table and AMAZING white chandelier...



I am full-on OBSESSED with this Designer's Guild pillow...


The back (which I forgot to snap) is the most fantastic shade of chartreuse...L-O-V-E!

A peek into their many shelves of pillows...

Pretty objets... 

They also have tons of stationery and paper goods including a great selection of my favorite style, letterpress...
  
John Robshaw tunics and scarves and a pretty wall of wrapping paper...

Gorgeous wing chair....

Fun little monogram pillow...


Loved this desk vignette...

Especially this little piece of artwork...


These studded tables are another favorite of mine...

Finally, this Designer's Guild candle was made for me...it's blue, striped, and smells like clean laundry!


Such a pretty store, isn't it? If you see something that you want, be sure to call or email them to inquire about purchasing!
