I spent this weekend at <a href="http://www.adweek.com/news/advertising-branding/u-kotex-created-pop-shop-dedicated-making-periods-little-more-bearable-171466" target="_blank">The Period Shop</a> — the world’s very first pop up store dedicated to periods, created by our favorite period brand <a href="https://www.ubykotex.com/en-us/?WT.mc_id=UBK_Paid-Search_Gen15_EN-US_UBK-G&amp;ReferralCode=UBY-GENENU-PA-ORG-201542&amp;WT.srch=1" target="_blank">U by Kotex</a>. To say that I'm proud to work with the CBX U by Kotex project would be an understatement. The pop-up shop brings to life the brand mission in a tangible way, and the shelves were lined with our anti-stereotype package designs. See more about how these cool, colorful designs came to be <a href="http://www.cbx.com/videos/cbx-u-by-kotex/" target="_blank">here</a>.
The Period Shop was inspired by a Tumblr post from a young woman, Sarah M., who partnered with U by Kotex to make her vision a reality on 5th Avenue in NYC. Part celebration, part proclamation, The Period Shop is proof that, together, we can change how we think about, talk about, and shop for periods. All proceeds benefit Susan’s Place, a NYC-based transitional residence for homeless women.

And here are photos from my <a href="https://twitter.com/search?q=%23PeriodProjects&amp;src=tyah" target="_blank">#PeriodProjects</a> experience:
