LLadies Fashion Scoop: Pop-UP!

With products and fashion lines changing each season (if not daily), why can’t the stores we shop in mix it up at bit too? I am sure you have stumbled upon some amazing store in your neighborhood, appearing unannounced—quickly drawing in the trendy crowds—only to disappear or morph into something else the next day. Well, we have some gems that you shouldn’t miss—and be careful because these stores are only here for a brief time!

For those of you who tire of your handbags, shoes or even boyfriends each season—these pop-up stores should put a little pep in your step and liven up any dull day.
