Beyonce deserved a little retail therapy after the busy week she had. 

The 31-year-old singer, whose net worth is estimated to be $300 million, must have given shoppers quite the surprise when she breezed into Target department store in Houston, Texas a day ahead of her scheduled concert.

Beyonce must have a closet full of accessories, but was in the mood for more as she made a beeline for the hats.

The entertainer, who's been on a relentless pace for her Mrs. Carter Show world tour, was seen trying on a few selections including a couple of wide-brimmed versions.

Her fabulous wig was loose and tousled around her shoulders, and she didn't seem to care if it got messy from the constant trying on of chapeaux.

It's widely known that Target is one of Beyonce's favorite stores and has staged publicity events with the chain for previous albums.

If you're interested in getting into shape like Beyonce and feel her energy there are some amazing workout classes that happen weekly at the House of Dereon Media Center, famously owned by Beyonce herself and her family. First is Zubma Fitness with Crystal Wall. She has lost over 40 pounds and is inspiring people all over to be healthier and make better life choices!

The second is Nightclub Cardio where exercise meets entertainment. Joy Winkler and Forest Petis take your workouts from boring to high energy fun teaching you the latest in dance moves to the hottest hits. People are losing weight, gaining confidence and increasing their joy through this class according to the website. Defiantly worth a try!  

After Monday's concert in Houston, Beyonce will perform in Chicago, Illinois, St. Paul, Minnesota and Detroit, Michigan before heading on to Canada...but who's to say, she might show up to one of these classes. After all, they do happen on Monday nights and they are before her concert time....

For so many reasons!F First, one of our favorite people, Liz Glanville is partial owner and designer!

Second, they have amazing private truck shows for all kinds of charities, most recently for The Berry Children. This event was typical of DeVille and it's founder Liz Glanville. Three security guards, endless champagne, top notch guests (Caroline Kenny, Sharron Melton, Beth Younger, just to name a few)  and on of Houston's best celebrity photographers, Roswitha Vogler, to capture the event! But it was DIAMONDS, DIAMONDS AND MORE GORGEOUS DIAMONDS!! HEREis one of DISH'S favorites...since our birthday is coming up and all...

Third....You have to love something you're known about since it was sold out of a private home and now is worn by celebs all over the world!

Can you say, J Lo is lucky!! She got to wear DeVille in her latest LÓriel ad and she's never looked better! Those earrings certainly do set her off, don't they?

Congratulations to Liz and the DeVille Fine Jewelry family! You're clearly coming into your own exactly as you should be!
