Pop Culture
Sourced by the ever resourceful and lovely Faith, who has put together a list for pop-up boutiques you most definately should not miss, or as I put it, pop-up’s you should pop into (terrible pun I know):
With openings each month, pop-up shops have become the latest trend in the retail industry, causing riots at Target Bullseye Bodegas and anguish at Comme des Garçons guerilla stores. And the recession has only encouraged the movement to spread. Here’s my shortlist of pop-ups to visit before they disappear:

Ongoing
- Type as Object — Oct. 21 to Nov. 20
347 W 36 Street, Suite 603
In conjunction with the exhibition “Type as Object,” typographer House Industries opened a storefront to sell items from the show. Font lovers can peruse a variety of printed t-shirts, tote bags, posters, wooden blocks and pillows.

- Gucci Icon-Temporary — Oct. 26 to Nov. 9
43 Crosby Street
In the first stop of Gucci’s traveling pop-up, the sneaker aficionado may opt for an exclusive line of trainers designed by Mark Ronson. The flashy kicks come in 18 different styles and one big price tag.
