Destination Hotel Gets a Destination Gift Shop: Ron Robinson Pops Up at The Mondrian

Say you're staying at the ultra swanky Mondrian in West Hollywood, and you're trying to rock out—you've got the Yeah Yeah Yeahs or the Dead Weather or somesuch on your iPod, and that little docking station just won't cut it. So what do you do? You go down to the newly opened Ron Robinson popup gift shop and you buy yourself a pair of those Parrot-Zikmu speakers designed by Philippe Starck. The popup debuted on Tuesday night (with a party, of course). Besides the speakers that would be a pox on any potential neighbors, the Ron Robinson gift shop carries a handpicked selection of the boutique's favorite items: Missoni towels and beach accessories, Kiehl's beauty products, Apothia candles, watches, and more. And if you really want to rock the eff out, the boutique also carries a couple of guitars. When the neighbors start pounding on your door, we suggest you open it, wearing the custom designed sparkly bra. Good times!
