Another Sign That Women Are Coming Up...

Tiffany & Co. which just opened their new huge store on Wall Street is now expanding in a smaller way. The purveyors of fine jewelry have a plan to open 70 stores that are 2,000 square feet. The stores, tentatively titled Tiffany & Co. Collections won't be where a man goes to big up the big sparkly "I do" piece. In fact, WWD reports that the stores will feature women's jewelry but no engagement or "statement" (translation: huge mega rocks) pieces. The stores are meant to attract today's women who can buy their own jewelry... Pieces will be priced from just under $100 to $15,000 and the first store is set to open next year.

Now... is this good news or bad news? Again, women buying their own jewelry. WHY? Whatever happened to tradition?
