Pop-up Retail
Pop-up retail, also known as pop-up store (pop-up shop in the UK, Australia and Ireland) or flash retailing, is a trend of opening short-term sales spaces that last for days to weeks before closing down, often to catch onto a fad or scheduled event. The modern trend of pop-up retail started in Los Angeles in the late 1990s, and went on to become popular internationally. Pop-up retail was an increasing factor during the retail apocalypse of the 2010s, including seasonal Halloween retailers who operate stores in vacant spaces during the season. In 2018 the pop-up industry was estimated to be worth $50 billion. History Temporary retail establishments date at least to the Vienna December market in 1298 and the European Christmas markets that followed. Seasonal farmer's markets, holiday fireworks stands, Halloween costume shops, consumer expos, and event-specific concessions are other examples of temporary retailing. The Ritual Expo was one of the first iterations of the modern p ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The process is known as vajazzling, a portmanteau of ''vajayjay'' (a euphemism for ''vagina'') and '' bedazzle''. Vajazzling was popularized by actress Jennifer Love Hewitt, who devoted a chapter in her book '' The Day I Shot Cupid'' to vajazzling. During a promotional interview on Lopez Tonight in 2010, she encouraged the female members of her audience "to vajazzle their vajayjays". In the United Kingdom, this concept was popularized when beautician Amy Childs appeared in a television show ''The Only Way Is Essex'' in 2010. By 2011, an Internet rating site for vajazzling called Rate My Vajazzle had been set up. Vajazzling is typically carried out at beauty salons.
