Earlier this May, we had the excitement of getting to celebrate the opening of three Kendra Scott pop-ups, bringing all the sparkle and magic along to a few of our favorite cities! From shopping for good to exclusive surprises, we had so much fun celebrating our arrival by sharing the full KS experience from College Station, TX to Naples, FL, all the way to Columbia, SC.

Columbia, SC 

Located in Trenholm Plaza, our opening weekend in Columbia was full of fundraising, free treats, and so many surprises! Guests enjoyed complimentary goodies from local vendors, including coffee from The Well Collective and rosé provided by Rosé Water. Open on May 1, the first 50 customers received an exclusive Kendra Scott tote bag and the opportunity to receive a free piece of jewelry when they spent $75 or more, as well as the chance to create their own flower bouquet with any $100+ purchase! On Saturday afternoon, guests joined our Kendra Gives Back event benefiting the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (LLS), hosted by Brandi Jansen, candidate for LLS’s Woman of the Year Award. Raising over $2,000, Saturday's giveback event directly benefited LLS, with 20% of each purchase supporting their longstanding mission to find a cure for blood cancers and improve the quality of life for patients and their families. Sunday’s events included a Kendra Gives Back event hosted by Tri Delta Sorority and Alumni benefitting St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and raising over $1,500, as well as surprise and delights including Belgian waffles from The Belgian Waffle Truck and complimentary champagne by Bubbles and Brews with a $75 purchase — making Sunday a truly sweet ending to a weekend of excitement! 

College Station, TX 

Howdy, College Station! Located in Century Square, our newest pop-up location means that we finally get to experience the spirt of Aggieland and open our doors to even more of our home state! Beginning on Friday, April 30, we kicked off our College Station welcome with sweet surprises like complimentary crêpes from Sweet Paris Crêperie and snapping selfies in front of our one-of-a-kind Howdy! mural. Plus, Aggie Ring holders enjoyed a special gift with any $100+ purchase, benefiting our Kendra Gives Back event that put the “all” in “y’all” supporting Aggie Women in Business. Rain or shine, the giving continued all weekend with 20% of each purchase benefitting Texas A&M’s The Big Event and to-go treats and goodies from a host of our local friends. Come October 8, we’ll be opening up our permanent location in Century Square, so come shop with us and celebrate our permanent home in the heart of Texas! 

 Naples, FL 

Located at Waterside Shops, our Naples grand opening was a bright spot from day one! We kicked off the weekend with ribbon cutting hosted by the Greater Naples Chamber of Commerce including complimentary sips from Ohza Mimosas and Cake Mockery cookies. Friday included a Kendra Gives Back event benefiting Grace Place, a nonprofit literacy center committed to providing pathways out of poverty by educating children and families. Thanks to the generosity of the local community, we were able to donate over $1,000 to Collier County Grace Place, helping families combat food insecurity, medical and mental health screenings, as well as financial literacy classes. Guests had the opportunity to create their very own bouquet of flowers with any $100+ purchase as well as enjoy delicious custom cotton candy, free jewelry, and a grand opening tote with any $75 purchase. It wouldn’t have been a Sunday without a mimosa, and our last day in Naples was wrapped up with even more shopping, celebrations, and complimentary sips from our friends at Beach Juice.
