From now until October 17th, Haywood Mall has a new attraction: Bal Harbour Shops Pop Up. Check out a smaller version of Bal Harbor Shops (in Miami, FL), right here in Greenville by visiting the luxury style pop up mall. Thirty individual shipping containers have been renovated and are now selling “luxury fashion, jewelry, and lifestyle brands.” Individuals can also reserve their spots for pop up events like “High Tea” in its makeshift courtyard. Enjoy traditional tea, finger sandwiches, and music for an afternoon of refinement. Sometimes, it's just fun to get fancy.
