What's blue and white and guaranteed to cure a mean case of the reds?

Well, if you're Holly Golightly a trip to Tiffany & Co., of course. Played by Audrey Hepburn in the 1961 film "Breakfast at Tiffany's," Golightly indulges herself in escapes to the jewelry store, where she feels secure among Tiffany's quiet luxury. Says Golightly, "Nothing very bad could happen to you there."

Whereas many of us might seek the comfort of a good friend, a shopping spree or a Dove chocolate ice cream bar, Golightly finds solace in the venerable American institution that has given us the ubiquitous Tiffany engagement ring setting and accessorized everyone from Mary Todd Lincoln and Jackie Kennedy to Liza Minnelli and Cindy Crawford.
