If you look up the word luxury in the dictionary, you will see a picture of Northpark Center. That gorgeous gathering place for some of the top retailers in the world is turning fifty years old. Get out this Saturday and enjoy their birthday bash. I’ll meet you there!
On any given day you will find me at Northpark Center because my favorite retailers all reside there. Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, J. Crew, the AMC theater for movies and film screenings, Anthropologie for the college daughter, Nike for the college son. And don’t forget my favorite high-end boutiques Louis Vuitton, Valentino and Gucci. You can even get your luggage there at the Tumi store. In fact, I challenge you to tell me what you can’t find there. That’s why it’s time to celebrate this landmark.
Fifty Years of Excellence, a free public celebration of NorthPark’s 50th Anniversary is being held on Saturday, August 22. Doors open at 10 AM. NorthPark Center is hosting a one-day celebration of shopping, fashion, art, music and throw-back surprises. The Center is located at 8687 North Central Expressway, Dallas, TX (between Northwest Hwy and Park Lane).
I hope to see you there. Happy weekend! xoxo- Tanya
