Summer Trippin': Where to go and what to do from coast to coast

The Sweet Spot

Betty Cupcake Opens

You pride yourself on being unique — and go to great (okay, totally insane) lengths to do so.

Like the time you drove 200 miles for that feather-spiked fedora. Or when you tossed your gold gladiator sandals the minute you saw them on Cathy von Copycat.

Thanks to Betty Cupcake, you can cut the craziness.

The new Snider Plaza women’s contemporary store stocks clothing and accessories that are mostly Dallas exclusives or by hard-to-find labels. Find the latest offerings from Project Runway winner (and Texas native) Chloe Dao, bamboo tees by Lizzie Parker, and baubles by local artists created just for the shop.

The owners, a mother-daughter team, circled the country to round up the eclectic mix.

Given your car mileage (and current gas prices), that should taste pretty sweet.
