Store Review: Love (Gap's accessory-only store)

A quick note about Love, the Gap's accessory-only store and the only one of its kind in the world. I was strolling along Fifth Ave yesterday after a family outing to the tree at Rockefeller Center when I decided to take a peek inside. What a cute and cozy concept! Very focused, very edited, very well-merchandised. I have to say, it was inspiring and I didn't feel like I was in the Gap with the rest of the masses. Very tight space but with only one other customer inside it felt like a very personal shopping experience. Featuring a very bright and cheery collection of on-spot accessories from comfy scarves with matching hats and coordinated ballet flats to braided leather bracelets and fur-trimmed handbags. Sort of like the best of their best, a top ten list of accessories, if you will. Best deal: the oh-so-chic leather gloves for $29.50. Go for the beige or hot pink.
Fifth Avenue at 54th Street

When you're done stocking up on gifts at Love, walk uptown a few more blocks to take in the holiday windows at Bergdorf's. Gorgeous!
