Because We Worked a Designer Pop-Up Shop!

We teamed up with Blank Nation Apparel and House of Gemmes this past Saturday for a meet and greet during their 3 day pop-up shop!

We had such a blast and appreciate Kristin and Brooke letting us share the space. It was a great location with White House Black Market and LOFT as our neighbors, so we were in good company and met some fun people spending their Saturday at the Orland Crossing sidewalk sale.

Here is what the BISTM/BTGTF set up looked like:

Here are a few of the people who shopped our closets...everyone left with something new for their closet and a FriendSwap Bag as well.

Also, can we just talk about how adorable that little bean is in Lisa's daughter's rain boots she was selling on BTGTF... Cuteness overload!   

Kristin had an amazing set up. She had quite a few of her classic style wrap skirts and dresses along with other dresses and tops from previous collections (if you don't know, Kristin had her own clothing line before House of Gemmes...the pieces are so cute and we were so happy to shop it this weekend!)

There was also tons of House of Gemmes jewelry with crazy reduced prices. We both snagged an adorable Illinois necklace along with quite a few other items.

Here is what Kristin's boutique looked like:

Of course we did some shopping too (we aren't lying about the "shop too much" title!)

Here are a few looks we picked up:

We loved this experience and can't wait to work with our fellow fashionistas again!
