ALERT: Van Cleef & Arpels Price Increase

A fellow Mizhattanite (Thank you, Laura!) kindly informed me that French joaillier Van Cleef & Arpels is planning a price increase this month. My contact inside the company also confirms the news and the 5~10% increase will take effect starting Monday, April 21st. I've been told the new markups will be across the board on all merchandise and seen at every one of their boutiques worldwide. Ladies, it looks like we've got some serious shopping to do in the next two weeks. So, how does investing in some iconic jewelry sound?
