A Trip to NYC and a Cute Gift Found

Every year my husband and I take a short trip to New York City.  This has been a tradition for five years now. We love the charm of the city and of course the shopping.  We took the trip these past few days with my parents and our little guy and although it was a hectic trip, which almost felt like the amazing race at times to make it from point to another, we had a wonderful time introducing them to all the really interesting places to visit.  We discovered new streets and one boutique really stood out for me, it is called "DoDo".  Everything about it stood out, the concept of the boutique, the decor, the product ,and I absolutely had to share.

The store front - the grass like ceiling definitely stands out.

The DoDo collection is a collection of charms that speak.  Most charms are animal charms and each charm says something about you or sends a messages.  Here are a few examples.

First this is the Dodo family

There are so many more charms to choose from and messages to convey.  Click here to visit the DoDo website for the full collection.  The gold ones are 18kt and there are some with diamonds or stones.  I found their online store limited in options and orders can be sent only to Italy, Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Luxembourg, Holland, Spain and England.  However there are a few shops in Canada (Calgary, Montreal and Toronto) and more in the United States (including Chicago, New York, Miami).  If you are in one of the cities that has a DoDo store, it is definitely something to check out.  Makes for a sweet gift with meaning and a message.
