SUNGBOON EDITOR x Toy Story Glow Buddy House Pop-Up in NYC

SUNGBOON EDITOR has launched a limited-edition collaboration with Disney and Pixar's Toy Story 5. Inspired by the beloved characters from the iconic film, the collection pairs Toy Story-inspired packaging with SUNGBOON EDITOR'S best-selling skincare formulas, while introducing two brand-new ampoules designed to target hydration and skin soothing.

The collection made its debut with a SUNGBOON EDITOR x Toy Story Glow Buddy House Pop-Up this weekend, August 7-9 at 74 Grand Street in NYC, 11am-6pm.

At the pop-up, you'll find 6 targeted, color-coded skincare lines featuring a different Toy Story character: Kojic Acid, Pink PDRN, Silk Peptide, Blue Agave, Red Heartleaf and Green Tomato.

At the Glow Buddy House, you get to explore each activation and receive a gift bag of products (including 3 products based on your skin concern), gatcha ball squish toy, zipper bag, travel-size samples, stickers and flavored sparkling water.

SJP by Sarah Jessica Parker NYC Pop-Up

The SJP by Sarah Jessica Parker Pop-Up Shop at 6 West 52nd Street opened on Black Friday and was only going to be open through December 3rd, but has been extended, through December 15th! Phone cases, candles, fragrances, clutches and bags are also available. 

I made it to the pop-up during the first weekend in December, and I'm so glad I did since I never tried a pair of SJP shoes on until now! I fell in love with all the sparkly shoes, quality and details. I tried on several pairs, and the size 35 really fit true to size, and they are pretty comfortable, especially since there are a variety of heel heights and styles.

Sarah Jessica Parker launched the SJP footwear line in 2014 with Manolo Blahnik CEO George Malkemus. All the shoes are made in Italy and are available at Bloomingdale's, Neiman Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue. There's one notable difference though. The stores don't carry a size 35 - the availability starts at a 35.5, so if you happen to be a size 35, I suggest you drop by the pop-up!

Spark Your Senses at the CandlePower by Yankee Candle Pop-Up

If you haven't been yet, the CandlePower by Yankee Candle Pop-Up Shop at 503 Broadway in NYC is the perfect place to get all your holiday gifts! The immersive pop-up shop is open until January 3rd and includes Yankee Candle, WoodWick and Chesapeake Bay Candle. The best part is that you can personalize a large candle by choosing a scent and photo you'd like to use. It's ready in minutes, all boxed up and ready to go! There are also some limited edition scents exclusive to the NYC pop-up, including New York City at Dawn, Fall in Central Park, and City Lights. I'm so in love with the New York City at Dawn cashmere plum scent - I think I'm going to have to go back and get that candle for myself! There are also some photo ops while you tour each station!

Last night I attended the private opening of the Dezso by Sara Beltrán Pop-Up Shop at Target Gallery at 511 West 25th Street, between 10th & 11th Avenue in New York City. 

As part of Target's ongoing commitment to the CFDA {FASHION INCUBATOR} and emerging designers, Target had awarded Sara Beltrán, CFDA {FASHION INCUBATOR} graduate, with the two day pop-up, providing her with another platform to further grow her business and share her designs with consumers. 

"Dezso" is Latin for desire, symbolizing Sara's romance with the sea. Sara is known for handcrafted ocean-themed jewelry inspired by Sara's time spent living in Mexico and India.

The pop-up shop was open to the public today, Friday, June 17 as well as tomorrow, Saturday, June 18th from 11AM to 7PM. At the pop-up, prices range from $5-$65,000, including Sara's one-of-a-kind jewelry, sculptures, artwork, furniture and found items, alongside customized products from Target that Sara has personalized in Dezso fashion.
