Boomers On Bishop

I love Boomer’s!
The bf & I are huge Mavs fans, so we go to Dallas whenever we can for games… but that’s usually all we do. The basketball thing.
We decided to poke around in Oak Cliff & Bishop Arts District, and I thought it was strange that no one was walking around… you know, on the sidewalk? … anywhere. But I guess that’s just an Austin thing? Anyway.
We wandered in & out of shops & galleries & I am NOT a shopper & I was about to just say, «let’s go back to the car so we can go back to the hotel so I can be bored in the hotel room» when I saw a CUTE messenger bag in the window. I walked inside, found a dress (super cute), a scarf (I had no idea I was so into scarves, my goodness!), some cigars (I don’t even know if I can smoke them but it seems so fun right now), a few shirts, and … S#@^. They’re out of the messenger bags. Except the one on the display. I’m gonna be that person. There, I did it.
The GREATEST thing about this shop is that it’s in Dallas. Let me explain: all the things I found here can be found at any number of shops in the Triangle, on South Congress, 2^nd Street, all over Austin in hip little boutiques. But most people in Dallas don’t dress like most people in Austin. So my awesome messenger bag was only $ 11. The dress was $ 19. You get the idea.
I’m not saying I will EVER drive to Dallas just to go shopping… but if I’m there again any time soon (I will be, it’s basketball season!), I’m going to head back to Boomer’s.

Unique shopping, dining experience. Really, hand made cigars? Vinyl albums as museum art?
Lays new track into the Oak Cliff/​Bishop Arts experience!
