Niven was a huge hit at The Beauty of Life. He even sat on Carson Kressley's lap (you remember Carson: the Q***r Eye for the Straight Guy style maven). It was a blast! In case you missed him there, you can still meet the fragrance master in the store TODAY from now until close (5:30 p.m.).

The design inspiration for William Yeoward Crystal is drawn from antique crystal pieces originally made in England during the 18th, 19th and early 20th century. This has inspired collections of barware, decorative pieces and stemware, and more recently 'the Country Collection'. Every piece of William Yeoward Crystal is entirely made by hand, Whilst echoing the style and elegance of period pieces, each one has a distinctly original and contemporary look, equally at home in settings either modern or traditional.

04/29/2010

Don't forget: you have to mention the word PEACH to receive the discount when you call or go in the store. Thanks!!!! Each week we'll have a new special with a new code word so stay tuned!
