Bunny Shapiro Beads x laCalifornienne x Poppy Marché

The cutest dual pop-up ever to hit Coast Village Road was held at Poppy Marchéon Friday, November 22. The independent shop owners for the dual pop-up were owner of Bunny Shapiro Beads Bunny Shapiro and Courtney Ormond of laCalifornienne.

Shapiro and Ormond have been Instagram friends and met in person at the pop-up. The combination of their brand looks, stacking bracelets with matching watches, make an excellent match for fashionistas of any gender at any age.

Nine years ago in November, Shapiro, a NYC native and fashion merchandiser, landed in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico and started making one of a kind beaded bracelets, earrings, and necklaces. Her local store there yielded a niche online business that was featured in Cosmopolitan and Seventeen magazines. Montecito Country Mart owner Jim Rosenfield came across Shapiro’s podcast on her beads and invited her to show them at his Montecito, Marin, and Brentwood Country Marts.

Ormand and Shapiro shared happily, “We were friends on Instagram for the longest time, exchanging likes and convo and now we finally got to meet in person for the first time! I also know Montecito Country Mart Manager Kristin Tueffel, and thus the dual pop-up was born! We love to combine our shop items of bracelets and watches for a unique look.” Ormand’s watches are Swiss made with the watch bands designed in California. “laCalifornienne was founded in Los Angeles in 2016. We draw inspiration from the infinite color palettes we see from dusk until dawn and in the magic hour of the California sky.”

Heather Rosenfield and Jenny Belushi [yes that Belushi] are the co-creators of Poppy Marché. Follow them all on Instagram for shop specials and events.
