As I was walking down First Avenue the other day, my heart almost stopped beating in my chest when I saw that Isadora’s was empty. I love their collection of vintage jewelry and stunning wedding gowns, and was momentarily devastated until I read the sign explaining that they were just moving two blocks away to the Inn at the Market at 1601 First Ave. They plan to reopen April 1.

ISTANBUL -The Mahreç Art House offers a unique experience for jewelry lovers and displays a vast collection of Hraç Aslanyan’s handmade nouveau jewels while offering an extensive education for aspiring jewelers

Shopping for jewelry can be a laborious and mind-boggling experience, especially somewhere with as much rich variety as Istanbul’s Grand Bazaar.
