Bring It To The People: Pop-Up Shop

It was a 2-day event at the SoHo Lofts, downtown New York at 52 Mercer Street. Into the elevator I went and on the 4th floor were 17-independent fashion labels under one umbrella to showcase a collection extravaganza.

Cold Picnic (Rams Head Cuff)

Welcome by an array of jewelry, I thumbed through items of Cold Picnic, and like a walk through the Metropolitan Museum of Art, I fell in love with a richly historical and diverse collection.

Gretchen Jones (Jewelry Collection)

Organic pieces included Mikuti, whose inspiration runs deep into the heart of East Africa.

Andy Lifschutz (Next Level Bronze ring)

An exquisite rawness permeated from the precious stones and metals in Andy Lifschutz jewelry.

Dirty Librarian Chains accessories are nothing short of boldly unique statement pieces.
