Etsy Opens First Shop
Etsy's first store opened recently in the basement of Macy's in Herald Square, and its theme will be refreshed every two months. Why would anyone have thought this was a good idea? Yeah, I don't know. Isn't Etsy known for being completely unassociated with anything currently in a retail space? Isn't that why people like it? Why would it ever need an actual storefront?
Is it just me or is this like having an actual eBay storefront? What's the point? It seems like such a weird, dumb idea. I know Macy's is struggling - and with ideas like this one, I can see why.

Hathaway Sport Winter Leggings
Available at Costco
Available at Costco
I have owned two pairs of these Costco leggings for the past three years and they are worn out as shit. Why? I have worn them, almost exclusively, throughout the months of December, January, February and March - almost every single day of those months (if that sounds like a gross statement to you, maybe I'm exaggerating... and if that isn't a gross statement to you, I'm definitely not exaggerating). So I think it's perfectly acceptable that they're a little tattered at this point. (But fret not, new ones are the way, thank you, Marla!)
I received them as a gift (from Harmeet) and at first thought to myself, "Why the hell would I wear these bland-ass-looking, thick leggings? I have a million leggings that are way nicer and more colourful. What is she thinking giving these to me?" And then I tried them on one cold night and they blew my face off they were so comfortable and flattering. I swear to you, if you give these a shot, you will not be disappointed.
Also: don't judge people who buy clothes at Costco, it's rude.

I love this so much.
Flying Tiger Copenhagen
“Flying Tiger is a Danish design store offering a quirky, ever-changing selection of own-designed products at surprisingly affordable prices.”
I LOVE THIS STORE.
So this place is basically a classier dollar store and it's been missing from your life.
I especially love the layout of the store. When you walk in, you're forced to walk in a maze-like pattern around the entire store, and I love that. I wish clothing stores were set up that way.
Honestly, I can't even give you a summary of what they've got, there's too much - pilates equipment, desk accessories, gift wrap supplies, games, umbrellas, headphones, EVERYTHING.
I can't imagine someone entering this store and not coming out with something necessary for a well-lived life. I CAN'T.
There's one location (so far) in the U.S. and it's in the Flatiron District in New York, you should definitely check it out.
