And Tiffany has changed too!

Since I had stopped blogging and the blogger world exploded into more of a money-making, advertising industry, and less than a hobby for expression (not that I am knocking them)...a lot of my favourite stores have changed....

For example, as mentioned below, Jenna Lyon's has changed the design of J.Crew for better or worse (I, for one, do not wear sequins often, am unable to pull off her runway style, and still prefer staples). There are of course things I still love, but they are fewer and far between. The things I miss most are forever left to eBay (collections from 2007, 2008...like that buttery Jamie bag with caviar leather), or rare collectors of Italian Cashmere that didn't have such a gauge that the knit grew holes quickly. But Tiffany has fared, to me, a bit better.

Friends of mine who work at the 5th Avenue Flagship epitomize the classic nature of the store who weathered the economic downturn of 2007, to which I feel we are still recovering. And have you seen Francesca Amfitheatrof?
