New York, NY, January 28, 2009 -- Domino magazine will cease publication, it was announced today by Charles H. Townsend, President and CEO of Conde Nast. The final issue will be published in March2009.

"This decision to cease publication of the magazine and its website is driven entirely by the economy," Mr. Townsend said. "Although readership and advertising response was encouraging in the early years, we have concluded that this economic market will not support our business expectations."

More to come.... "

I could just cry. This is just so upsetting. When is this going to end?!?!

I was just corresponding with Marisa over at Stylebeat Blog about her wonderful blog, and learned about this. There were rumors in the wind, but it's now official. I am sure Marisa, former style editor for House Beautiful and O at Home will have more info before I do ....so stop on over for the latest here.

I wanted to tell you all about Marisa's beautiful blog...and how she will probably have all the latest and greatest news form NYC....but for now, I think I have to go find a tissue.

Goodbye Domino! You will be missed.


I will leave you with some photos that Marisa took at the latest Gift Show in NYC:
