I really miss my Upper West Side TJs in NYC. They had the absolute best costume jewelry. Their runway section was smaller but ALWAYS had the best sales. Pretty much anything you see and like would be on sale in 2-3 weeks if someone hadn't purchased.
I'm now in So Cal and the Glendale TJs has a pretty good Runway dept. but nowhere close to the amazing jewelry inventory of my beloved NYC store.
Ahh! You're following me! Just moved to LA from the UWS and can fully agree with everything you say above. Loved that TJs at "Columbus Square."
Glad to see there's a former NYer out there!! I moved in Oct right before the Columbus Square one opened. Probrably for the best considering I used to work at the Hearst Tower right across the street. That would have been torture for me at work ha!
Don't worry though there's plenty of great places to shop here as well!! Have you tried South Coast Plaza. It's the absolute Mecca!!
How are you liking LA?
Columbus Square is the one on Columbus and 99th Street. It sounds like you worked across from the one that opened the month after, on W 57th and 8th Ave.![]()

Oh yes you're right. Columbus was the one I loved!! Are you in LA now?? The one in Glendale is really great. A really nice Runway selection.
No, I'm a Manhattan native who doesn't drive, so I only hit up L.A. shopping on business trips. The Greater L.A. buses have improved quite a bit in the last 15 years!![]()
I. love. South Coast Plaza. Haha you know me too well. LA is great so far! Still yearning for the energy of New York (like walking around and seeing faces) but then I come back to my apartment without roommates and realize life is good. Commute to work however: Sucky.
And don't get me started on Desert Hills. Woodbury has nothing on it.
Hahaha SCP is my fave too!!! And Ditto on Desert Hills, there's also a closer one-Camarillo that has all the biggies too like Dior and Gucci and Prada. OMG I have like the biggest grin just typing this!!!Haven't been outlet shopping in too long. A few OC TPFers and I are planning a shopping trip to SCP the first weekend of April, love for you to come with if you're free!!
