Are pop ups the new vintage?? knock knock whats on the other side.


Now vintage has established itself as the "cool" place to get "one-off pieces" and "unique" looks, these are words we hear over and over and over again - and sure we all want to look unique and different and I know I love when I get a compliment on a dress, piece of jewellery...or whatever it might be. I know its sad but I get a small satisfaction if its from another country or a small shop no one has heard of and I'm guaurenteed that no other fool will arrive in wearing what I have on.


Although how many times has someone said "ooohhh i got it.." in new york, or london or wherever... and internally I've rolled my eyes and thought of course and ffffffffllliiiiipppp!!!


Well with that long winded introduction, I'll get to my point - I think theres a new phenommmano approaching, one that has been sweeping the likes of Berlin, London all the hits of a good while, Ireland is only jumping on the band wagon quite recently.


Its the pop - up retail. These boutiques usually only for those who know about when and where they are on, as they come and go as they please - how lovely for them. I get the odd email out such happenings but I'm thinking they are going to become more and more "a deal" in Dublin in the near future - and I'M EXCITED!!!!!! Its the Vintage uniquness coupled with the added excitment of a mystery shop whats not to like.


So keep you eyes peeled out for these little pop up gems about the town!!
