B uDhaGirl's signature wrist wraps embody the jewelry line's motto: mindful glamour. Both spiritual and chic, the shagreen bracelets marry bright turquoise, pink and orange, or classic black, ivory and taupe, with magnets so you can switch out the gold-plated brass end-cap designs (angel wings, Buddha, lotus and hearts, all sparkling with crystals). Founder Jessica Jesse loves a black-and-taupe combo — "I especially like them over a black turtleneck so they lie on top of the sleeve," she says. Wrist wraps $220, end caps $110 to $150, at budhagirl.com. Linden Wilson The Roast is Ready: Ring it all in with a wild roast at CentralTrak, a group exhibit devoted to the provocative purveyors of the odd, fabulous and weird, as well as kings of a Bloomsbury-meets-freak-show decor. In other words, we are talking about Oak Cliff's very own Chuck and George. CT director Heyd Fontenot is the ringleader for this raucous exhibition that invites area talents to weigh in on C and G, while also restaging some of the pair's greatest hits in terms of interior design (opening January 17; watch for the wacky Valentine party Friday, February 13). Best of Show: As we gear up for year seven of the Dallas Art Fair, here's an accolade to its co-founder. Chris Byrne has had the extraordinary honor of being recognized independently by New York Magazine (none other than critic Jerry Saltz) and The Huffington Post for the exhibition he curated for Andrew Edlin Gallery, New York, on visionary artist Susan Te Kahurangi King's drawings. Gallery Goings: We've heard rumors of a Design District dealer on the way to a new location and an increasing profile, but we'll have to wait to next month to reveal more.

Art Notes Scott McDaniel's take on the Chuck and George show coming to CentralTrak "Honey Bee" … "Boys 'Round Here" … "OMG" … "DJ Got Us Fallin' in Love" … Those are just a few of the chart-topping hits from megastars Blake Shelton and Usher, who will bring their guitars and dancing shoes to town Friday, February 6, for the United Way of Metropolitan Dallas' Unite Forever Gala. The evening serves as the grand finale for the year- long 90th anniversary celebration of the nonprofit, which has improved lives since 1924 via its mission that everyone in Dallas deserves a quality education, a stable income and good health — the building blocks of strong families and thriving communities. Chairing the 90th anniversary are Troy Aikman and Charlotte Anderson, who will welcome guests to AT&T Stadium alongside gala chairs Lenise and Randall Stephenson, Karen and Tom Falk, and Mary and Rich Templeton. Honorary chairs include philanthropic heavyweights Ebby Halliday Acers, Ruth Altshuler, Lyda Hill, Sally and Forrest Hoglund, Caroline Rose Hunt, Margot and Ross Perot, Marianne and Roger Staubach, and President George W. Bush and Laura Bush. For sponsorship information, visit unitedwaydallas.org. Read our chat with United Way of Metropolitan Dallas president and CEO Jennifer Sampson at papercitymag.com.

Chairs Laree Hulshoff, Barbara Daseke, and Barbara Buzzell invite patrons to an evening filled with a fabulous feast, cocktails, conversation and even a celeb sighting — his son, Owen Wilson — who will be there in support of the honoree.
