    What to wear when shopping at the world-famous Round Top Spring Antiques Show

    One of the hottest antiques/shopping events on the globe is back, promising a day, weekend, or week full of retail therapy of for traveling Houstonians.

    The wildly popular Round Top Antiques Show, which draws hundreds of thousands from across the planet twice a year, returns for a spring 2023 event.

    Smart shoppers locally have booked hotels in advance, but that doesn't mean a day trip won't net some fab finds. We've rounded up some smart shopping looks — some go Texan chic for what's now known as "cosplay for cowgirls," while many go athleisure and comfy.

    As for the Round Top look, there are three types of Round Top shoppers: those who make an entrance decked out in the latest and greatest to see and be seen; those middle-of-the-road gals who love a good mimosa bar and fun shopping; and the Round Top girlies who spend hours trekking tent to tent searching for the perfect antique treasures. We've got outfits for each.

    Dressed to impress

    Snag a perfect springtime look including this Johnny Was kimono along with boots and accessories at Hemline Woodway. The boutique also has great outerwear for layering during brisk Round Top evenings.

    Cute and casual

    Those who want to be comfortable, but still have great style can rock this Good American Fit for Success Jumpsuit from Nordstrom. It offers stretch, multiple pockets and comes in five colors. Throw on the shoe of the moment, Adidas Sambas to explore Round Top in comfort.

    Fit for shopping

    Antiquing is hard work. Even Joanna Gaines wears jeans and a T-shirt when she goes treasure hunting in Round Top. If digging through piles, elbowing the competition and long walks are part of your plans for this year's Spring Show, head to Rice Village's Vuori for their Performance Joggers and then pop into Height's boutique Proper for the latest Adidas NMD S1 sneakers. Don 't forget to show some Houston pride with an Astros embroidered hat.

    A little Houston in Round Top

    Fashionistas should stop by stylish Houstonian/Round Top resident Marla Hurley’s chic boutique Modernmarla, where serious shoppers can grab luxe-label shoes, accessories, clothes, and more. (Be sure to score a cheeky “Kiss My Fancy Texas A*s” T-shirt for a Lone Star look that’s totally extra.)

    Next door is the exotic Sapana Dreams, (translated to “dream” in Nepali), where owner Jolie Helms curates and imports outerwear, vests, quilts, totes, and more from India and Nepal — all while empowering the impoverished crafters in those countries. A familiar Houston retail name, Helms is passionate about educating shoppers about the plight of those who create the goods for her first solo store — all while customers leave with some serious statement pieces.

    Vonlane has added new routes in major cities around Texas.

    Luxury bus operator Vonlane is adding new routes across Texas for 2026, including bringing back crack-of-dawn rides between Houston and San Antonio.

    According to a release, effective February 16, Vonlane will run new early-morning and evening departures in four Texas cities on high-demand travel days. Six additional weekly departures have been added in each city as follows:

    NEW Fort Worth to and from Austin:

    • 7 am and 7 pm Monday, Thursday, and Friday

    NEW Houston Galleria to and from San Antonio:

    • 6 am and 6 pm Monday, Thursday, and Friday

    As of February 16, the schedule to and from these Texas cities will be as follows:

    San Antonio to Houston Galleria:

    • 6 am, 10 am, 2 pm, 6 pm Monday, Thursday, and Friday
    • 10 am and 2 pm Tuesday, Wednesday, and Sunday
    • 1 pm Saturday

    Houston Galleria to San Antonio:

    • 6 am, 10 am, 2 pm, 6 pm Monday, Thursday, and Friday
    • 10 am and 2 pm Tuesday, Wednesday, and Sunday
    • 9 am Saturday

    Vonlane also offers routes from Houston to Dallas, Fort Worth, and Austin.

    The company says the expanded schedules aim to help facilitate day trips, allowing regional business travelers to arrive in time for morning meetings and return home the same evening.

    “Business travelers are telling us they want schedules that actually work,” said Alex Danza, founder and CEO of Vonlane, in a statement. “These new departures make it possible to take a morning meeting without a 4 am alarm, stay productive on the road, and still be home by dinner. That flexibility is exactly what Vonlane was built to deliver.”

    Dallas-based Vonlane launched its high-end bus service in 2014 to cater to business travelers. Each bus, which holds fewer than two dozen passengers, features amenities like Wi-Fi, satellite TV and radio, snack and drink service, sleep masks, and leather seats. Their fares are flat-rate, one-way or round-trip, with no taxes, baggage fees, or change fees.

    Vonlane now offers more than 500 departures weekly across nine cities, in Texas and beyond. Routes run in Austin, Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston, and San Antonio, Texas; between Atlanta, Georgia, and Nashville, Tennessee; and between Nashville and Memphis, and Nashville and Knoxville.

    In Houston, buses to Dallas, Fort Worth, and Austin depart from the Hyatt Regency Downtown at 1200 Louisiana St. Buses to San Antonio depart from the Hyatt Regency Galleria at 2626 Sage Rd.

    Reservations can be booked online, and may be canceled and fully refunded up to 24 hours before departure.

    Vonlane also just launched an app to make booking and managing trips easier for passengers; it is available for Apple and Android devices.
