Open now: Inside Tiffany & Co.’s Blue Box Cafe in New York

The highly anticipated Blue Box Cafe has just opened its doors in Tiffany & Co.’s New York fifth Avenue flagship store and Yakymour has the first look inside….

A peek inside Tiffany & Co’s New Café, where you can yes, eat breakfast at Tiffany’s. Since announcing the launch of their new Home and Accessories collection, Again Tiffany & Co have continued to expand their luxury lifestyle offerings with ‘Breakfast at Tiffant’s’. The American fine jewellery house has just opend their first Blue Box Café, sitting pretty on the fourth floor of the Tiffany & Co Fifth Avenue flagship store in New York.

Serving the iconic coffee and croissant – from the cinematic creation that is Breakfast at Tiffany’s featuring Audrey Hepburn – along with a separte breakfast and lunch menu, expect to dine amid the maison’s signature Tiffany Blue, a color so synonymous with the jeweler that it’s trademarked.

There are Tiffany Blue chairs, Tiffany Blue leather banquettes, Tiffany Blue plates (from their Color Block collection) Tiffany Blue trim, and walls with amazonite, ‘the nature version of Tiffany Blue’. And not forget to mention: the great view of Central Park.

The café is open regular store hours, which means customers can stop by after browsing for engagement rings (’tis the season) or just to live out their Audrey Hepburn fantasies (don’t forget your – Givenchy – black dress). But, with reports of lines out the door, it seems there’s already much ado about Tiffany!

 

 

 

OPI’s tribute to Audrey: Breakfast at Tiffany’s nail polish collection

This year’s Christmas collection from OPI is called Breakfast at Tiffany’s and is a tribute to Audrey Hepburn and the movie Breakfast at Tiffany’s that is celebrating 55 years this year.

I have always felt that the most beautiful famous face in the world is Audrey Hepburn. Unmatched. OPI has launched a collection called Breakfast at Tiffany’s for Holiday 2016, which started sales on October 1. The collection is meant to “reflect her classic beauty and sense of playfulness” – and how else, but using one of her most classic renditions. It will feature 12 limited-edition shades in regular lacquer, and 6 shades of Infinite Shine. The star of the set is the OPI I believe in Miracles – a shade that OPI calls ‘precious blue’. It is a light, cheerful, sky-ish blue that makes you think of a spring morning in the mountains. So delicate and soothing – such a far cry from the neon orange and pinks from the last season!

I Believe In Manicures, Champagne For Breakfast, Black Dress Not Optional, Apartment For Two, Five-And-Ten, Rich & Brazilian

Meet My Decorator, Got the Mean Reds, Fire Escape Rendezvous, Breakfast at Tiffany’s, Sunrise…Bedtime!, Can’t Read Without My Lipstick

The collection also features the OPI Champagne for Breakfast shade which is a shimmering, silvery shade – perfect for a night out or a gala event (like the award night or a dinner with the Queen). The OPI Breakfast at Tiffany’s is a pearly matte shade, with some “iridescent flecky bits” – which I assume means awesome. Then there is an OPI Five-and Ten – which is light, calm and sparkling. The OPI Black Dress Not Optional is well, black. It has a placid feel to it than a witchy, gothic feel. Which is what Audrey symbolizes – peace. Then there are these shades of red – Apartment for Two, Meet My “Decorator”, Fire Escape Rendezvous, Got the Mean Reds, Can’t Read Without my Lipstick, and finally the Rich Brazilian. Winding up with OPI Sunrise … Bedtime!

The collection’s 12 limited-edition lacquers come at $10 and the 6 Infinite Shines at $12.50. So this holiday season ‘OPI Breakfast at Tiffany’s Holiday 2016’ is going to paint the town red. Or blue. Or pearly white. You choose!
