22nd Annual

Cowtown Goes Green

Fort Worth Stockyards National Historic District

H

Saturday, March 18

Have you ever seen an armadillo race? Have you never heard of an armadillo race, but now that you have, you must see one immediately?

Well, now’s your chance!

Supported by Public Improvement District 11, the Fort Worth Stockyards is proud to present the city’s largest and most family-friendly St. Patrick’s Day party: the 22nd Annual Cowtown Goes Green Celebration and Parade! Taking place on Saturday, March 18 along historic E. Exchange Ave., this annual event serves as a community-wide festival of Irish culture with a Western twist.

Don yourself in green for a day of fun that goes from 10 a.m.-8 p.m.

Free family events include live music, two cattle drives and a behind the scenes meet-and-greet with the Fort Worth Herd (1:30-2:30 p.m.), lawn games, Old West Gunfight shows, clogging and dance troops, the big Irish-Western parade at 4 p.m. and, of course, the armadillo races.

There’s more! Some ticketed events include horseback riding, stagecoach rides, a petting corral, mechanical bull rides, pony rides, the Cowtown Cattlepen Maze, historic walking tours, the Texas Cowboy Hall of Fame, John Wayne: An American Experience museum, Stockyards Museum, a Cowtown Kids Matinee Rodeo at 1:30 p.m. and Stockyards Championship Rodeo at 7:30 p.m. at Cowtown Coli-

seum, mini train rides, and big train rides with the Grapevine Vintage Railroad’s Trinity River Excursion.

Since Cowtown Goes Green has programming throughout the entire day, there will never be a dull moment. From cow milking contests to Chuck Wagon Cowboy Poetry readings to calf-roping training and stick horse racing, there’s something interesting happening every hour.

When you’re finished playing cornhole, petting a longhorn, and getting your face painted and glittered, there are many shops, restaurants, and activities the Fort Worth Stockyards has on offer for you to enjoy.

Cowtown Goes Green is a fabulous, family-friendly event, and is just one of many happening in the Fort Worth Stockyards in March! Spring Breakaway Stockyards Style spans three weeks, March 2-25, and exciting events are planned throughout.

On March 1-4, the inaugural Fort Worth Music Festival & Conference will take place in the Stockyards across 6+ stages with over 30 bands, including Stoney LaRue, Roger Creager, Josh Weathers, and more. On March 2, 16, 23, and 30, Cowtown Coliseum hosts PBR Stockyards Showcase, an all-new bull riding phenomenon that pits fearless athletes against rank contenders as they compete for a chance to qualify in the 2023 PBR World

Finals. Also at Cowtown Coliseum, the Stockyards Championship Rodeo takes place every Friday and Saturday night at 7:30 p.m. On March 17, the Stockyards Heritage Club is putting on a Luck O’ The Stockyards Kegger complete with $5 draft green beers.

For real time updates, be sure to follow @stockyardsstation and @mulealley on Instagram and Facebook, and @fortworthkey on all platforms. There’s a lot going on in the Stockyards this month, and you don’t want to miss it!

Thanks in part to the Fort Worth Stockyards National Historic District, Stockyards Heritage Development Co., Texas Cowboy Hall of Fame, Cowtown Coliseum, the Fort Worth Stockyards Business Association, and the Fort Worth Herd for bringing this event to life and their continuous efforts to preserve our Western heritage.

West is Among the Best for Culture and Shopping-and-Dining Delights

H

by Michael H. Price

“Happy to follow the bumpy brick road,” reads a newspaper headline from 1981 — a lasting assertion that Camp Bowie Boulevard’s historic brick pavement must endure, and never mind the occasional trafficengineering idea of modernizing the pathway with concrete and asphalt.

Now as then, seekers of entertainment, adventure, and dining experiences remain “happy to follow the bumpy brick road,” as a principal gateway to Fort Worth’s west side and its many commercial and civic offshoots.

The attractions range from a burgeoning West 7th Street district to a broadening cultural and historical district – connecting southward with University Park Village, westward with the Chapel Hill shoppingand-entertainment development, and branching out further with new moviegoing venues, boutique eateries, and varied opportunities for strolling and sightseeing amid architectural innovations on a comfortably human scale.

Pioneering publisher and civic booster Amon Carter characterized Fort Worth as “where the West begins.” And for locals and visitors alike, the west side marks the beginning of that beginning: The West hardly could have picked a keener starting point than Fort Worth.

Prominent among the newer landmarks is Dickies Arena, a versatile 14,000-seat showplace named after the Fort Worthbased manufacturer of workplace clothing.

Located at 1911 Montgomery Street within the Will Rogers Memorial Center, Dickies Arena complements and expands the scope of the adjacent Will Rogers Complex, providing a new home for the Fort Worth Stock Show Rodeo.

And Fort Worth, in turn, hardly could have picked a site more right for its burgeoning west side Cultural District.

Rippling with heavy-duty commercial, artis6 FORT WORTH KEY March 2023

tic, and residential growth since the dawn of the 21st century, the west side overall has seen its very skyline change with the transformation of a busy West 7th Street into a streamlined conduit connecting the downtown area’s Sundance Square development with the Cultural District. Heading west (naturally) from downtown Fort Worth, one finds the Cultural District radiating from the intersection where Seventh Street crosses University Drive and, in the process, morphs into the historic, brick-paved Camp Bowie Boulevard.

Visitors in search of western-style discoveries — from plain-and-fancy dining, to fine art and varied entertainment — will find such delights in volume on the west side. Cultural attractions, restaurants, mainstream and special-interest shopping, and lavish natural gardens flourish as a reminder of how Fort Worth has built upon its frontier origins. Several of the world’s finer museums, playhouses, and galleries anchor a vast Cultural District. The hand-laid redbrick pavement of Camp Bowie Boulevard is an attraction in itself, lined with an everexpanding array of art galleries, stage-andscreen auditoriums, boutiques, scholarly museums, restaurants and lounges, and shopping malls.

One long-standing favorite, Domain XCIV, 3100 W. 7th Street, originated in 1994 along Camp Bowie Boulevard.

Persistent growth has led to a 6,500-squarefoot showcase, combining fine furniture and vintage European treasures and accessories.

Collections include Theodore Alexander, Wesley Hall, and Guild Master. Domain XCIV has long supplied anchorage for the village-within-a-city developments of the West 7th Street area.

A newly settled popular attraction, the Grand Berry Theatre at 2712 Weisenberger Drive, emerges as a showplace for indepen-

THE UNFINISHED PROJECT OF LIBERATION Seven Black contemporary artists explore ideas of emancipation from 160 years ago to today.

Emancipation: The Unfinished Project of Liberation is organized by the Amon Carter Museum of American Art and Williams College Museum of Art. The exhibition is co-curated by Maggie Adler, Curator of Paintings, Sculpture, and Works on Paper at the Carter, and Maurita Poole, Executive Director of Newcomb Art Museum, Tulane University.

dent and art-house motion pictures, complementing the mainstream Hollywood movies at Movie Tavern West 7th and enhancing the art-film fare that the Modern Art Museum has brought since the early 2000s via its Magnolia at the Modern screening series. The Grand Berry is an early example of the expanding entertainment potential of the historic Foundry District, located north of Montgomery Plaza.

Farther along to the west of the west, the newly dedicated Como Community Center’s $12 million complex at 4660 Horne Street has installed a gymnasium, a library, after-school activity centers, and allages activity programs.

Luncheon attractions, sparked by the addition of Alabama-based Chicken Salad Chick in Ridglea Village, have grown to include such established draws as Blue Bonnet Bakery, Feastivities, Secret Garden Restaurant, and The Lunch Box. Wild Acre Brewing Co. has opened a Camp Bowie location to complement its downtown home base. A longtime popular favorite, Ol’ South Pancake House at 1509 S. University Drive, anchors the lower reaches of the west-by-south side and lends a sense of history to the immediate area’s dining opportunities.

University Park Village, too, is rich in variety — a high-end shopping district offering such popular brands as Ann Taylor, Williams Sonoma, Pottery Barn, Anthropologie, and lululemon, among casual and fine-dining experiences alike, and the high-tech wonderland of the Apple Store.

The Fort Worth Museum of Science and History commands the westward view of the district from Montgomery Street, and just northward are additional cultural touchstones: Designed by renowned architect Philip Johnson, the Amon Carter Museum of American Art houses a definitive collection of American paintings, photography, and sculpture. The collection spans early 19th-century art to mid-20th century modernism. It is also home to nearly 400 works

by Frederic Remington and Charles M. Russell. Nearby is the Kimbell Art Museum still living up to Newsweek’s description as “arguably the most beautiful museum in 8 FORT WORTH KEY March 2023

America” including its new Renzo Piano Pavilion addition. The neighboring Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth is the oldest such museum in Texas — housed in a workof-art 2002 building designed by worldrenowned Japanese architect, Tadao Ando, and featuring bold gallery exhibitions, concert attractions and, every weekend, leadingedge independent-studio films.

The Museum of Science and History, anchoring a campus within the Cultural District, has been designed by similarly renowned architects Ricardo and Victor Legorreta. Inside the Museum of Science and History, one finds vast galleries of Texas-bred dinosaur specimens and the state’s oil-and-gas heritage, in addition to the Cattle Raisers Museum, the Fort Worth Children’s Museum, Stars Café, and the digital Noble Planetarium. The Omni Theater, an IMAX® superscreen dome, links with the Museum of Science and History and will reopen December 2023 after renovations. Nextdoor is the National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame, honoring women of the American West who lived and worked on ranches, who led an expedition, sat before an easel, aimed a rifle and hit the bull’s eye, or sat on the Supreme Court.

When the museum meanderings trigger an appetite for fine dining, two longestablished, museum-based cafés stand ready to serve. The Kimbell Buffet Restaurant offers indoor or patio lunch and a light evening menu within one of the most beautiful modern buildings in America. The Modern Art Museum’s 250seat Café Modern, with an outdoor terrace, overlooks a serene reflecting pond.

The Modern’s full-service kitchen delivers superb cuisine for lunch, Sunday brunch, and scheduled seasonal dinners.

Neighboring the museum community is the city’s landmark Will Rogers Memorial Center, a versatile 85-acre entertainment complex — with 45 acres housing the Will Rogers Coliseum & Auditorium. Its majestic Pioneer Tower dates from the Texas Centennial Celebration of 1936. Still a dominant feature within the district, the coliseum holds pride of place as the first

domed structure of its kind in the world.

The complex also boasts an equestrian center and exhibit halls, home to the annual Fort Worth Stock Show.

Southward off University Drive, visitors can experience the glories of nature at Trinity Park, a pristine oasis bordered by a fork of the placid Trinity River. Here, picnickers, joggers, and strollers can explore wandering pathways or travel on a miniature railroad. Opposite the park, across University Drive, Fort Worth’s Botanic Garden beckons. Founded in 1934, it’s a lush 109-acre tapestry of dappled shade accented by vibrant splashes of color. The Garden is home to thousands of species of native and exotic plants in 21 specialty gardens and is and the oldest major botanic garden in the state of Texas. The European-designed Rose Garden features more than 3,400 roses, and the 10,000-square-foot Conservatory houses tropical flowers and foliage from around the world. Adjacent to the Botanic Garden is the Botanical Research Institute of Texas (BRIT) whose mission is to “reduce its foot-

I'LL BE YOUR MIRROR

print on the natural world as well as protect and restore ecosystem services.” BRIT’s building was designed as an example of how much of this can be accomplished.

A short distance southward lies the illustrious Fort Worth Zoo, nationally ranked among the finest. The Zoo is home to thousands of animals, both native and exotic.

Viewing facilities and natural habitat exhibits are set up for optimal views of the animals, often separated from their observers by only a river, a waterfall, or a large window.

Shaded rest spots and picnic tables are available, with several on-site eateries.

Across from the Zoo, Log Cabin Village offers another view of the city’s rich frontier history boasting seven authentic log homes, dating from the mid-to-late 1800s. Perioddressed interpreters greet visitors inside each cabin offering a living history of the home and its origin.

The mood to explore might be triggered by art, dining, shopping, or the wonders of nature. Fort Worth’s west side meets all these interests and then some!

DON ARTEMIO - Upscale Mexican dining at its finest. Don Artemio takes heritage recipes from northestern Mexico and makes them with local Fort Worth ingredients and mouth-watering, modern panache.

This is the kind of joint you go for a special occasion, and it’s worth every dime. From their nopalitos fritos (tenderfried cactus) to their El Famoso “Chile Hojaldrado” (cream cheese and pecan-stuffed poblano chile wrapped in puff pastry) to their in-house dry-aged beef, you simply can’t go wrong. From the clay bricks in the wall to the wood tables at which you sit, everything you see in the restaurant is imported from Saltillo, Mexico, too. It’s a love letter to Mexican heritage cuisine and a truly holistic experience... one that shouldn’t be missed. Mon.-Thurs. 11 a.m.-2:30 p.m. & 5-9 p.m. Fri.-Sat. 11 a.m.-2:30 p.m. & 5-10 p.m.

ESPARZA’S - If you land at the DFW International Airport hard up for Tex-Mex, first of all, I understand you. Second of all, you’re in luck. Touted as “independently owned, internationally known,” Esparza’s is perched in the same town as the airport: Grapevine.

Since 1985, the Restaurante Mexicano has served up delicious fare that includes Tex-Mex classics like enchiladas and tacos, but also innovations like fried avocado stuffed with brisket and an assortment of quesadillas, nachos, fajitas, salads, and desserts.

They have a patio strung with lights and call themselves “the margarita capital of Texas.” Enough said.

Sun. 10:30 a.m.-9:30 p.m. 124 E. Worth St. Grapevine, 76051, 817-481-4668, www.esparzastexas.com.

HONKY TONK KITCHEN - Executive Chef Alex Walters brings a passion for authentic Texas cuisine and hospitality to Billy Bob’s. After attending Le Cordon Bleu College of Culinary Arts, he spent a decade leading culinary efforts across DFW before joining the team at Billy Bob’s Texas. He’s poured his heart into bringing great food to patrons from all over the world. The food selections at Billy Bob’s are far greater than the restaurant’s name “Honky Tonk Kitchen” may imply. In addition to the Honky Tonk Kitchen, Chef Alex oversees all culinary related business including the banquet operations where Billy Bob’s may

host 500-5000 guests in private events each week. Mon.Wed. 11 a.m.-6 p.m. Wed.-Sat. 11 a.m.-5 p.m. & 6 p.m.close. Sun. noon-close. 2520 Rodeo Pl. 817-624-7117, www.billybobstexas.com/about/honky-tonk-kitchen.

JOE T. GARCIA’S - When Mr. and Mrs. Joe T. Garcia first opened in their home to diners in 1935 there were 16 seats. Eventually, the famed Tex-Mex outpost has poured out onto their famous, twinkle-lit patio and now seats up to 1000 diners. It continues to be family-run to this day, and the original recipes are still in use.

Eighty-seven years later, the fare and ambiance keeps people coming back in droves. While the lunch menu features things like chimichangas, tamales, soups, and salads, the dinner menu is succinct: sizzling fajitas or enchiladas. The portions are generous which is good, because the tequila to margarita ratio is, too.

Great for casual nights and special occasions alike.

Mon.-Thurs. 11 a.m.-2:30 p.m. & 5 p.m.-10 p.m. Fri. & Sat. 11 a.m.-11 p.m. Sun. 11 a.m.-10 p.m. 2201 N. Commerce St., 817-626-4356, www.joetgarcias.com.

THE KIMBELL CAFÉ - Located in the Kahn Building, The Kimbell Café offers in-house dining and to-go lunch options. Prepared by Chef Peter Kreidler, the Café menu offers a weekly rotating selection of soups, sandwiches, and quiche. Afternoon tea for two is also available.

LOS VAQUEROS - The incredible Cisnero Tex-Mex family recipes of Los Vaqueros have fed this guerita since I was knee high to a grasshopper, long before I was old enough to have one of their incredible margaritas. Whenever I think about Los Vaqueros I smell the sizzling fajitas sailing past, see the never-too-busy-foryou staff smiling in greeting, and taste the perfect queso/ chip ratio. Located in an old Stockyards warehouse, the restaurant manages to be both cozy and cavernous, and is 100% authentically western. Los Vaqueros accommodates events (like my dad’s 50th birthday party!) as easily as they do a nice lunch for two. Tues.Thurs. 11 a.m.-9 p.m. Fri.-Sat. 11 a.m.-10 p.m. Sun. 10:30 a.m.-9 p.m. Closed Mon. 2629 N. Main St. 817624-1511, www.losvaqueros.com.

PRESS CAFE - Casual breakfast, lunch, dinner, happy hour, curbside cocktails/family dinner packs, and weekend brunch? Count me in. For all of it.

Press Cafe’s extensive menu includes notables like crab mac n’ cheese, banana walnut waffles, ahi heirloom salad, and short ribs. All of their burgers are made/ground in-house (including the veggie patties), and are just $10 during happy hour (Mon.-Thurs. 3 p.m.-6 p.m). Press is right on the Trinity, so when your day calls for some good, old fashioned contemplation and martinis while staring at a body of water, this is your place. Sun.-Tues. 7 a.m.-9 p.m. Wed.Sat. 7 a.m.-10 p.m. 4801 Edwards Ranch Rd. #105, 817-570-6002, www.presscafeftworth.com.

PROVENDER HALL - Ugh, don’t you love it when a bunch of hot millennial chefs open and operate an atmospheric, American West restaurant and feed you Skillet Cornbread with Whipped Honey Butter and Slow Smoked Beef Rib for Two, that you secretly try to eat for one? The large outpost’s open kitchen specializes in meats either smoked or cooked over their woodburning grill, all accompanied by an array of southern

classics like their Pimento Cheese, Hoppin’ John, and Cheddar Cheese Grits. They have a robust liquor list including a quality Moscow Mule and a little ditty called Golden Cheeked Warbler I have my eye on… Tues.

5-9 p.m. Wed.-Thurs. & Sun. 11:30 a.m.-9 p.m. Fri.-Sat. 11:30 a.m.-10 p.m. Closed Mon. 122 E. Exchange Ave. #110, 817-782-9170, www.provenderhall.com.

REATA RESTAURANT - Choosing from the best that southwestern food has to offer, Reata (Spanish for rope and name of the ranch in the 1956 epic Giant) offers a menu that ranges from steaks to Creole dishes to southern standbys like their West Texas Pecan Pie. An example for the first course is Reata signature jalepeño and cilantro soup. The main course could be pan-seared pepper crusted tenderloin with port wine sauce and sides like bourbon creamed corn and bacon wrapped asparagus.

Finish your meal with a dessert classic or something new, like dessert tacos with caramelized bananas and chocolate gravy. Lunch every day 11 a.m.2:30 p.m. Dinner Sun.-Thurs. 5 p.m.-8 p.m. Fri.-Sat. 5 p.m.-9 p.m. 310 Houston St. 817-336-1009, www. reata.net.

THE ROSE GARDEN TEA ROOM - The Fort Worth location is located inside The Mercantile and Arlington’s inside Gracie Lane, two curated marketplaces of 200+ dealer booths with impressive collections of gifts, home décor, antiques, fashion, furniture, and more. The Rose Garden is a delicate blend of English tradition and old southern charm with an assortment of soups, salads, fruit, and sandwiches. Their entrées are the very popular Rose Garden Variety which is a sampler plate of chicken salad, fresh fruit, quiche, soup, and a pumpkin bread sandwich, and all dishes include their famed “toasties” for the table. There are several delectable desserts and specialty coffees and teas, too, including a three-course high tea. Arlington: Mon.-Fri. 11 a.m.-3:30 p.m. Sat. 11 a.m.-4 p.m. Closed Sun. 4720 S. Cooper St., 817-7953093. Fort Worth: Tues.-Sat. 11 a.m.-3 p.m. & Sun. noon-3 p.m. Closed Mon. 7200 Camp Bowie Blvd. 817731-7673, www.therosegardentearoom.com.

SECOND RODEO BREWING - Alright, alright, alright (McConaughey voice), Second Rodeo Brewing’s authentic and unapologetic Texan style has descended upon the Fort Worth Stockyards. Inspired by Waylon, Willie, and the boys, there are three free live music sets every single day in this laid back restaurant and outdoor bar garden. Enjoy dishes like maple bacon glazed wings with waffle crumble and cheesesteak while you grab a pint. Second Rodeo’s crown jewel is their onsite brewery led by Dennis Wehrmann, a fifth generation brewer. They’ve also got a cocktail called Atomic Cool-Aid which, for me, inspires intrigue... Sun.Thurs. 11 a.m.-midnight. Fri.-Sat. 11 a.m.-2 a.m.

122 E. Exchange Ave. #340, 817-240-4959, www. secondrodeobrewing.com.

SHAKE SHACK - It’s simple, really: burgers, hot dogs, fries, and shakes... and one fabulous cheesestuffed portobello burger for vegetarian friends.

Let’s just say this: people love Shake Shack so much they get tattoos of the logo and cater their weddings with it. As if serving their Texas special Cold Shot Concrete made of vanilla custard, chocolate custard, malt, salted caramel, dark brown sugar, and chocolate toffee isn’t enough, Fort Worth’s Shack is also partnered with Alliance for Children, a nonprofit that protects Tarrant County children from child abuse. Sugar coma and philanthropy? Ideal. Sun.Thurs. 11 a.m.-10 p.m. Fri.-Sat. 11 a.m.-11 p.m.

JOHN WAYNE: AN AMERICAN EXPERIENCE I don’t know anyone in 2022 who doesn’t want to giddyap back to yesteryear, and this exhibit is your invitation to saddle up. Fort Worth was deemed the perfect place to honor Wayne’s iconic marriage of rugged western sensibility to the glamour of the silver screen, and I couldn’t agree more. Ten thousand square feet of exhibition space lead you through the Duke’s robust life, from childhood on.

Of course, his iconic movie career is highlighted with things you don’t want to miss seeing in person like costumes, prop features, and his True Grit Oscar, but lesser known aspects of John Wayne are highlighted, too.

Hear recitations in his own voice alongside never-before-seen correspondence and photos, all curated by the Wayne family to ensure a comprehensive capture of their fabled relative.

STOCKYARDS & STOCKYARDS STATION are

unique places in Texas: an exciting blend of old and new. The livestock industry began to develop here in the 1880s. There were cattle, sheep, hog pens, and horse and mule barns. The original wooden barns burned in 1911 and were replaced with concrete and steel buildings. Stockyards Station is proudly dedicated to the preservation of the livestock industry.

Evidence of that is the twice daily cattle drives at 11:30 a.m. & 4 p.m. Come and explore 14 restaurants, 13 bars, 35 shops and over 17 must-see attractions all surrounded by the rich history of the Fort Worth Stockyards. This is also where you can go to Billy Bob’s, the world’s largest honky tonk, historic Cowtown Coliseum and the Livestock Exchange Building. Stockyards Station’s event calendar is at www.stockyardsstation.com. Along Exchange Ave., 817-625-9715, www.fortworthstockyards.org.

Ages 13+ $2, under 12 free. 131 E. Exchange Ave. 817-625-5082, www.stockyardsmuseum.org.

It’s also home to the Rose Garden Tea Room, which means you can shop all morning, refuel, and then carry on all afternoon.

MULE ALLEY - A fairy-light strung concourse inside of The Stockyards, Mule Alley is composed of barns that have been standing for over a hundred years, now gutted to outfit retail and restaurateurs aplenty. The quaint street dead ends into another exciting development, too: Hotel Drover. Mule Alley is the place to be! Every week there seems to be something new swinging its doors open: shops, restaurants, bars and, for some lucky people, even some office spaces. 122-128 E. Exchange Ave., www.mulealleyfortworth.com.

14 F O R T W O R T H K E Y M a r c h 2 0 2 3

which is Lucchese Custom Collection at Hotel Drover, the only Lucchese boutique of its kind in existence.

Amanda and Matt, the creators of KIMES RANCH, have taken their fashion background to create a more thoughtful jean. With details like a special pocket for a knife, flattering pocket placement, and womenswear with a high enough rise to cover up while riding but not so high as to sacrifice style, they’ve managed to make the sartorially pleasing utilitarian. Yeehaw! 10 a.m.-8 p.m. daily. Suite 120, www.kimesranch.com.

KING RANCH SADDLE SHOP was established in 1853, and boy is it tenacious. During the Reconstruction Era the ranch had to get back on its feet, and part of that was hiring in-house craftsmen to create their very own saddles. After mastering that craft, King Ranch output expanded into more leather gear, all branded with King Ranch’s iconic “W.” Due to legend-fueled demand, they began selling products outside of the ranch and King Ranch Saddle Shop was born. Suite 530, www.krsaddleshop.com.

In regards to a classic outfitter in the Alley, look no further than LUCCHESE BOOTMAKER, home of your bespoke forever boot. It all started when Lucchese brothers Salvatore and Joseph emigrated from Italy to Texas, bringing their father’s cobbler legacy with them.

With fans from Prince Harry to Sandra Dee, Lucchese boots are canonical. Simply put, it’s where elegance meets western practicality. Party trick: It’s pronounced lu-kay-see. Mon.-Sat. 10 a.m.-8 p.m., Sun. 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Suite 500, 817-918-7999, www.lucchese.com.

PROPER SUPPLY CO. is the latest store to open its swinging saloon doors to shoppers in Mule Alley and features western wear with their crown jewel: Stetson.

There are also things like sterling silver martini glasses and exclusively designed clothes for the bougie cowboy in your life. Suite 550, 949-874-1281, www. instagram.com/propersupplycofw.

TUCKER BROWN knows fashion, and he’s here to stay. Partnering with his sister, he opened his first boutique in Lubbock nearly 30 years ago before branching out to Fort Worth. Now you can find Tucker Brown in a brand new outpost in Mule Alley. While the merchandising errs young, there’s truly something for everyone among the seasonal, on-trend pieces throughout the store. Also to be found are fun Fort Worth gifts like glasses and pillows featuring maps of the city and beautiful, watercolor stationery. Suite 130, 806-438-4512, www.tuckerbrown1986.com.

Dolly Parton famously pleaded, “Why’d you come in here lookin’ like that, with your cowboy boots and your painted on jeans, all decked out like a cowgirl’s dream?”

I have a strong feeling her inspiration was the one and

only WRANGLER. While ubiquitous in the world of denim, a Wrangler store as fabulous as the one in Mule Alley isn’t as common. There are only three like it in the country! Fort Worth is truly being treated to the best. Now go get some famous jeans and break some hearts, ya hear? Mon.-Sat. 10 a.m.-8 p.m., Sun. 10 a.m.-7 p.m.

Suite 140, 682-610-3347, www.wrangler.com.

PRIPPIE - “A pop of preppy with a hint of hippie” creates this adorable boutique’s portmanteau, so it’s got a little something for all different styles!

If you’re visiting, snap up a non-cheesy souvenir at Texas Jake’s Trading Company, Destination Fort Worth, or Texas Hot Stuff. Flip through old and new presses alike at Chief Records. While they have all kinds of genres, this is where you’ll find the good stuff: old school country vinyl. There's something else for hipsters- Texas Western Legends satisfies all your Victorian steampunk attire needs. If you enjoy looking like an 1800s Texan school marm ready to jump on a horse (who doesn’t?) head to Jersey Lilly Old Time Photo Parlor at the Texas Cowboy Hall of Fame to capture proof you were born in the wrong era.

UNIVERSITY PARK VILLAGE - Head to University Park Village to find several well-curated boutiques, often family-owned, like The Impeccable Pig and Altar’d State. There are also comfortable classics such as Chico’s, Anthropologie, and J.Crew. There’s a lot to see, do, and eat, and the Village’s sleek façade and retail offerings make the waitlist at its Apple store a little more bearable. What do you mean it’s $150 for you to turn my phone off and on again?

I’d much rather spend that at Kendra Scott. Mon.Thurs. 11 a.m.-7 p.m., Fri.-Sat. 10 a.m.-8 p.m. Sun. 12 p.m.-6 p.m., 1612 S. University Dr. www.simon.com/ mall/university-park-village/stores.

WATERSIDE - Settled next to the Trinity River, aptly named Waterside is a pretty cluster of stores, shops, and trendy places like CycleBar. There’s a colossal REI, which is especially key right now since people have a newfound interest in getting out into wide open spaces, magical places where fresh air is kept. Also, if you’ve been staying in and have become a bit of a self-made chef, you might consider upgrading your tools at Sur la Table. It’s pronounced sir-la-TAW-bluh, and I’m telling you so you can impress your friend Pierre. There is more info on Pierre in the West 7th listing below. My favorite place in Waterside, though, is Pinspiration.

They have an ever-changing menu of crafts and DIY projects based on what’s trending on the internet that month. They also have a bar so, you know, you can buy rainbow pom poms and a beer.

WEST 7TH - From the historic Montgomery Plaza all the way to the latest place crowned cool by TCU students, there’s a lot happening on West 7th Street.

This is the neighborhood where the fabled Domain XCIV is located, after all. You can buy small-batch, artisanal treats at Dude, Sweet Chocolate. This ain’t your stuffy friend Pierre’s chocolaterie in the 7th arrondissement à Paris, non. It’s better. Head to Esther Penn boutique for got-to-have-it clothes chosen by Texas women touched by sunny LA style. Stop by Wrare to discover avant garde homewares, and then swing by The Flower Market on 7th for a true-blue European cash-and-carry floral situation.
