This Is Me.: My FAVORITE Dallas Spots

Over the past few years I have gotten into the routine of hitting a few spots in Dallas. Some of my closest friends have helped me find these places and so they are very special to me for that reason! Saturday I took a day to myself and hit most of the places- which always puts me in a good mood. I sort of love shopping by myself... or with someone who separates from me and then rejoins me later. Haha- I am a loner. So if you ever come to Dallas then go to these vintage hot-spots and you will feel like you are shopping and eating with me:) OR just call me and we can for real eat and shop together. Most of these places are thrift/vintage/antiqueish type. They are all full of random things, which always makes things more fun! I included information and websites for each place in case you want to check them out.... you are welcome- my secret places are longer a secret. P.S. most of these places are hit and miss... don't give up on the prize. Oh and I put these in this order on purpose. This route is well thought out- I have done this many times.
