OBSESSIONS. DECORATION. SALIENT FACTS. 18 O ften the best friends a r e m a d e w h i l e traveling. That's what happened when Josh Madans, founder of Dallas–based men's accessories brand Billy Baker Co., made the acquaintance of Saint Luke, a London line of punchy travel gear for those in-the-know. Upon spotting Saint Luke canvas bags in the boutique at the One&Only Palmilla in Los Cabos, Madans reached out. The perfect summer collaboration was born in the form of two bracelet and bag combinations. The Tortola, a classic navy duffel that fits in everywhere, from Montauk to the bag's namesake, and the St. Barths, a head-turning canvas bag in bright green and orange. In turn, Madan's hand-beaded bracelets complement the bags for any summer travel wardrobe. billybakerco.com, saintluke.co Lisa Collins Shaddock A SUMMER FLING W hen the Dallas Design District welcomed a new storefront in June, the grand opening party was filled, not with interior designers and architects, but with stylish tots. Meet Dondolo, a Dallas-based children's clothing boutique known for its classic bubbled rompers to Dondolo DARLING pleated dresses with Peter Pan collars and plaid jumpers for tiny gents. In just three years, Dondolo outgrew its wholesale model, and the demand for a retail brick-and-mortar shop grew. Founder Catherine Hill went to work, tapping interior designer Amy Berry to put her modern-traditional spin on the interiors. But this shop is more than just adorable wardrobe staples for tots. Dondolo employs single mothers in Colombia to hand-stitch its collections, with a portion of sales going toward the purchase of clothing for its needy children. Talk about a win-win.
