We asked Dallas tastemakers for their seasonal staples—those items that, for them, the holidays wouldn’t be complete without. Flea Style’s Brittany Cobb shares her favorites.
Favorite gift shop: Flea Style of course! You’ll also find me loading up at Le Labo, local markets, and the liquor store (you’ll find me in the tequila aisle).
Favorite host or hostess gift: Casa Dragones, Flea Style candles, and handmade cards
Best place to buy a holiday party outfit: Flea Style! Our sparkles section this season is bananas. You’ll also find me searching for vintage at Dolly Python or something really special at Chanel.
Go- to holiday cocktail or spirit: Since the holidays are a time to celebrate, I’m often serving or sipping something bubbly like a French 75 or Kir Royale.
Favorite non-alcoholic holiday drink: What’s that? Kidding! A peppermint mocha—we serve a mean one at Heirloom Haul and I’m known to drink it year-round.
Go-to bottle of wine for the holidays: Anything Orin Swift
Favorite holiday sweet treat: Peppermint bark is my jam.
Favorite holiday tunes: Frank Sinatra all the way—preferably via vinyl
Favorite holiday flick: The Holiday
Favorite holiday scent: I love a good mix of cedar, amber, and patchouli.
Must-have decorative item: My collective of vintage ornaments from family and flea market hauls
Your favorite holiday tradition: Decorating the tree the day after Thanksgiving with lots of records playing and Champagne sipping!
Best Santa in Dallas: We love visiting Santa at the Downtown Neiman Marcus
