Tiffany's Blue Box Brings Excitement to StyleWeek

An international icon, the Tiffany and Co. blue box is also part of the soon-to-be legendary StyleWeek Providence that begins tomorrow! The thrill of receiving a blue box from Tiffany is one of the most exhilarating feelings (the element of surprise of what is actually in the box is so suspenseful that when the piece of jewelry is finally discovered utter happiness is experienced). And Tiffany and Co., a platinum sponsor for the event, is offering just that happiness to StyleWeek attendees, while raising money to support StyleWeek Providence (a non-profit organization). For $200, anyone can buy a blue box (there are 50 of them); 49 will have a small key pendant while only one will have a small Tiffany and Co. shopping bag charm inside. That lucky person will receive a white gold, larger key pendant valuing at $1,800.

Thinking you need to get your hands on one of these boxes? Well, the sale of the boxes will be during the cocktail hour on Sunday, June 6th. The promotion ends with a dramatic drawing (all buyers get their boxes at once and open them together..so fun) on Saturday, June 12th. Good luck!
