Yesterday you slipped on your suede shoes and bag and, incredibly, were having a good hair day. So of course there was a torrential downpour with flood warnings.
Don’t let the weather get in the way of gorgeous, thanks to local cousins Ronald Obmaces and Josephine Firat’s new UZO Umbrella. Just in time for spring showers, the genius asymmetrical shape and luxe coating allows water to bead right off. The posh protector, already picked up by fashion mecca Bergdorf’s, combines artistic perspective, sleek colors and a cherrywood handle. You’ll be wishing for thunderstorms just to show it off.
Forecast: Cloudy with a chance of chic.
Introducing Material Recovery. The Texas design house takes rescued furniture and vintage lighting and wraps it in intricate embroidered textiles to create a whole new home accessory.

Wang, Mischka, and Amsale line the wall of the Upper Kirby boutique, just waiting for a spin on the dance floor. Mention Houston Tidbits through February for 20% off your gown. Why have only one when you can have twice the fun?
