It has come to my attention that Living on Seventh, the stylish shop on Seventh Avenue between 3rd and 4th Streets, is closing.

Another sign of dark economic times?

Living on Seventh carried an unusually well edited selection of chic and well designed women's clothing, accessories, and home decor items. In fact, it was one of the most tasteful shops in Park Slope.

Signature items included Calypso dresses, nice shirts and sweaters, colorful Azerbaijani and Finnish
vases, neat tableware, bed linens, pillows, and beautiful lamps.

She then opened Living on Seventh, Living on Fifth and a shop called Lola in the South Slope. The Park Slope shops sort of morphed into clothing stores. Living on Seventh is her last remaining shop.

Eva is a lovely shop keeper and person. The customer service at all the Living shops was excellent. We will miss this ever-stylish woman and fun conversationalist on Seventh Avenue.

The good news: There's a BIG closing sale at the shop for the next two weeks.
