Fashion Flash: models, mascara and Madonna

 

 

FD Luxe creative director Tammy Theis will see a dream realized on Monday, when Wallflower Management opens its doors on Travis Street. Theis will serve as president and creative director of the boutique modeling agency, and will concentrate on fashion and print clients, for now. "I've been finding models for years," says the former director for Page Parkes Management new faces. "This is a natural progression for me." Joining Theis will be Brenda Gomez, also formerly of Page Parkes, and John Bassignani, who worked at Trump Model Management in New York before relocating to Dallas to open the West Village home store Haven. The agency's Web site will be active with open call information on Monday, at www.wallflower management.com.

Available in girls' sizes 2-toddler to 14, Oh So Posh! jeans and interchangeable cuffs are a crafty way to get more wear out of mini denim. The Frisco-based company recently launched an e-commerce site at ohsoposh.com, where the regular and capri-length cotton-spandex denim is on sale for $59.95. The button-on cuffs, adorned with flowers, bows, pink leopard and camouflage prints, retail for $36 per set. Want to mix-and-match in person? Check out the collection at Plano's Safari Kids and Southlake's Ella Bella.

Akin to an appetizer tray at Chili's, Sephora has compiled 40 of its best-selling mascara brands into the Lash Stash Mascara Deluxe Sampler (below). Summer intern Amy Pham had a go with the kit, which didn't leave her hungry: She suggests starting out with Lançome's Cils Booster XL as a primer then applying the Anastasia Lash Lifting Mascara or the lengthening Too Faced Lash Injection Mini – or both. The $39 box, purportedly worth $96, provides a variety of mascaras with different brushes and purposes, allowing users to experiment.

Now's your chance to snag some Hermès signature orange – the Highland Park Village boutique (214-528-0197) is hosting a sale during store hours from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., July 8-11, with 40 percent to 60 percent off of men's and women's ready-to-wear, shoes, hats and gloves. Carry plastic – purchases can be made with credit cards only, and store credit can't be redeemed.

Louis Vuitton recently unveiled its fall campaign featuring Madonna in artistic director Marc Jacobs' designs. The pre-eminent pop star stays on the job from spring in the latest glossy Man Ray-inspired ads, shot by Steven Meisel and breaking in magazines next month. Look for Dallas' new 5,900-square-foot LV boutique to be unveiled in October.
