A pair of fashion-conscious Greenhill sophomores — Maddie Crick of University Park and Virginia Dollins of Preston Hollow — have organized a fashion show called Winter Wonderland that will take place at 2 p.m. Saturday in Greenhill’s Montgomery Library. The girls have secured sponsorships from a number of Park Cities businesses — including The Impeccable Pig, Tootsies, and Melanie Gayle — and Neiman Marcus gift bags will be given to the first 50 people in attendance. Tickets are $8 for adults and $5 for students, with all proceeds going to The Family Place.

Seems SMU’s logo has spread to high-end slippers.

JP Crickets, purveyor of “the go-to his and her shoe that combines an Italian-made loafer with the comfort of a classic velvet slipper” has added the ol’ red mustang to its collection, says a company spokesman, and you’ll be able to find it online soon. Shoe prices start at $225.

Get in touch with Hollywood glamour Friday at Bachendorf’s, where the newest collection of heirloom chic jewels from famed designer Ivanka Trump will be showcased from 6 to 8 p.m. Head to the Preston Center location to view the extravagant jewels and rock tradition like Ms. Trump.

I’m working on a series of stories about Highland Park Village’s 80th anniversary. I’d love to include testimonials from longtime patrons. If you have a memory of the first movie you saw there or a special outfit purchased there or a momentous meal enjoyed there, and you wouldn’t mind sharing said memory with the readers of Park Cities People, please call me at 214-523-5272 or email me at dan.koller@peoplenewspapers.com.

Stop by Bachendorf’s in The Plaza at Preston Center today or tomorrow to see a master Lazare diamond cutter create an ideally proportioned diamond from a rough stone. Demonstrations are scheduled for noon, 2 p.m., and 4 p.m. Enjoy the show!

Last year, we had a photo of mini-Randy Allen on our front page. Who’s it going to be this year? See any costumes (Park Cities-centric or otherwise) that blew you away?

My favorite so far was a toddler version of ESD head Father Swann at the D/People kids Halloween party. Complete with balding hair patterns. Post your favorites here, but feel free to send shots of the kiddos to editor@peoplenewspapers.com.

Take it from a reporter who’s dressed like a cat (OK, a cat lady) right now and on her ninth piece of candy: We’re taking Halloween seriously this year at People Newspapers.

Anyway, associate editor Joanna England and photographer Christina Barany just rigged up this photo booth for coworkers’ kids, who’ll arrive in costume this afternoon. I had to share.

Those hoping to escape the monotony of yet another Saturday should head to Nicholson-Hardie for its 4th-annual fall festival this Saturday. Nevermind that the high today is 87, it’s fall!

Quick schedule of events:

11 a.m. – 3 p.m.- Free face painting. (If you don’t bathe your child for two days, it doubles as a Halloween costume!)

11 a.m. – 2 p.m. – Pumpkin carving, including demonstrations by professional pumpkin carver Bill Bush, because apparently professional pumpkin carver is a profession.

11 a.m. – 4 p.m. – Chili cook-off. Bring your Crockpot full of goodness.

11 a.m. – 4 p.m. – Fall harvest bake-off. Winner takes home a $250 N-H gift card, and year’s worth of bragging rights over Linda Cashman, who didn’t even THINK to toast her pecans before putting them in her pumpkin bread. Amateur.

10 a.m. – 4 p.m. – Dog costume contest. Dress your dog like Mike Napoli and you’ll probably win.

Just after the Park Cities People‘s special section on the Cattle Baron’s Ball hit homes today, it was learned that members of the new “Dallas” show would be at the gala this Saturday at Southfork.
