    your hat is awesome

    Houston's hottest hat maker hosts stylish shopping event at Truth Barbeque owners' new Round Top hotel

    Eric Sandler
    Oct 19, 2022 | 10:10 am

    Round Top’s newest boutique hotel will partner with one of America’s premier hat makers for a one-week pop-up that's taking place alongside the fall antiques fair. Modern milliner Teressa Foglia will bring her stylish headgear to the Hotel BeBe from Monday, October 24 through Saturday, October 29 from 11 am to 7 pm daily.

    Recently opened on Route 237 directly across from Marburger Farms, Hotel BeBe is a passion project for proprietor Abbie Byrom-Botello. The former marketing exec and her husband, Truth Barbeque owner Leonard Botello, have created a property built around four standalone bungalows, a pool, fire pits, and more. Rooms feature canopy beds, leather furniture, and large pieces of art.

    “Teressa Foglia has a world class vision and brand, and I appreciate her eye for detail, creativity, and just her approach to her craft and her clients,” Byrom-Botello tells CultureMap in an email. “She embodies a lot of what we do on the Truth/BeBe side, and I couldn’t have asked for a better partner to truly ‘launch’ the hotel with.”

    Byrom-Botello explains that she met Foglia about six months ago. After initially discussing the possibility of the Foglia team staying at the property, they decided to work together on a shopping event that also includes vintage-inspired looks from New York City’s LoveShackFancy and vintage jewelry pieces from Los Angeles-based designer Samantha Knight Fine Jewelry, which will each occupy one of the bungalows.

    The event also includes both the Casa del Sol Lounge, an outdoor space that will serve a tequila-driven happy hour from 4-7 pm with food by Truth Barbeque, and furniture and design elements by luxury furniture and décor retailer ARHAUS.

    “We worked to create a one of kind space and shopping event for her, which is typically not something a standard venue can offer,” Byrom-Botello writes. “Here, Teressa got a lot of creative control, and I supported her vision.”

    That vision includes an immersive experience that’s a little more relaxed than other Round Top shopping destinations. Shoppers will be able to work with shop with Foglia on custom orders or shop ready-to-wear items. Appointments are available via the Join Us at Round Top page on the Teresa Foglia website.

    Shoppers will have their choices of hats at the pop-up.

    “We are so excited to be a part of the launch of Hotel BeBe,” Foglia said in a statement. “Together with ARHAUS, LoveShackFancy, Casa del Sol Tequila, Samantha Knight Fine Jewelry, and Truth Barbeque, we’re opening the doors to a handcrafted and artisanal experience in such good company.”

    The Swift BLDG is expected to open in late 2026.

    A new mixed-use development in the Heights has announced its next round of tenants. Three wellness businesses are coming to The Swift BLDG, Houston developers Radom Capital and Triten Real Estate Partners’ project in the historic Swift & Company Packing Plant that’s located near the Heights Hike & Bike Trail.

    They are:
    • SweatHouz, a contrast therapy studio
    • Strong Pilates Studio
    • The Skin Clinic, a Houston-based aesthetics and skincare destination

    Scheduled to open in winter 2026, SweatHouz will offer infrared saunas, cold plunges, and other protocols to improve a person’s well-being. The protocols are focused on areas such as athletic recovery, reducing stress, improving circulation, mental health, and longevity. In addition, it will offer a beauty bar equipped with Dyson hot tolls and a beverage station stocked with different waters.

    Building on the success of its Katy location that opened last year, Strong Pilates Studio will occupy 2,500 square feet in the Swift BLDG. Using Rowformer and Bikeformer machines, customers have the opportunity to take classes in Strong Body, Strong Loaded, and Strong Pilates-Only. It’s expected to open in the fall.

    “Our method blends strength, cardio, and reformer-based training into one, delivering real results in just 45 minutes. This isn’t just Pilates — it’s a new standard for fitness in Houston. And a community that sweats together stays strong,” franchisee Mona Hussein-Zaki said in a statement.

    Currently located in M-K-T, the Skin Clinic will more than double its footprint by relocated to the Swift BLDG. The clinic’s services focus on skin health and rejuvenation. It also expected to open in the fall.

    “The response from this community has been incredible, and Swift gives us the room to grow into what our patients have been asking for: more space, more services, and the same patient-centered care that got us here." founder Kelli Nwuli said.

    All three businesses join previously announced tenants such as Van Leeuwen Ice Cream, premium juice bar Leemoo, Merit Coffee, and Houston Tex-Mex staple Escalante’s.

    On track to open to the public in fall 2026, The Swift BLDG will offer more than 30,000 square feet of office space along with 30,000 square feet of restaurant and retail tenants. The two companies previously partnered on M-K-T, the Heights mixed-use development that’s near the Swift project. Radom is known for a number of other Houston developments, including the Montrose Collective and the historic Tower Theater property and its adjacent buildings.
