Are you ready to really check some things off your holiday shopping list? Look no further - Indy is home to some great pop-up shops this season.

Outpost in Circle Centre

Imported ImageOutpost is located in Circle Centre Mall across from H&M. I love this store. Imagine finding all local goodies from beloved retailers including People For Urban Progress, United State of Indiana, Quil Jewelry, Lux & Ivy, Liz Alig and No. 18 Paper Co.

I got an awesome United State of Indiana t-shirt for my special someone and treated myself to a Lux & Ivy candle from their apothecary selection. I was really tempted to snag a Liz Alig dress, but then I remembered holiday shopping is about giving. Some other favorite items in the store included retro Indy prints, an Indy postcard book, and stunning stationary from No. 18 Paper Co.

Outpost is reshaping the way we think about shopping in a mall, from their local goods to cool programming, so definitely check them out. You won’t be disappointed. Tag your visit with #MallTakeOver and #OutpostIndy.
