We may be preoccupied prepping our inner fashion critics for Sunday’s red carpet drama, but hardly too busy to shop. Here are three places to check out this weekend:

Start in the Financial District, where local purveyors of modern Scandinavian style Zinc Details and Filippa K are joining forces to benefit The Scandinavian School and its Swedish language and culture programs. Created especially for the event, a temporary pop-up shop featuring accessories and textiles from Design House Stockholm will be on view in the store for the duration of the evening, as, of course, will items from Filippa K’s current collection. Ten percent of the evening’s sales will be donated to the school.
