If Ever You Sense a Traitor in Your Midst, Here’s How to Sniff Her Out

Gift shops aren’t exactly hotspots of envy. When I think “gift shop,” I think over-expensive cigarettes, travel deodorant and hand-whittled local goods.

But there’s this gift shop in St. Louis called Lusso. If its advertising is anything to go by (and when would it ever lie?), objects from Lusso compel people to steal, pick fights, and take back wedding presents.

Maybe it’s the handmade gift-wrap service. See acts of insanity here:

o In certain cases, there is no honor among maids.
o Always remember who was absent from the cha-cha line.

All this to tell you Lusso’s moved to The Crescent on Carondelet Plaza. Now that you know, go thee forth and wreak havoc. Agency: Rodgers Townsend, St. Louis.
