Window Shopping: My Favorite Stores in NYC

My tiny momma joined me for five days during my trip to New York.




Per usual, we did ALOT of hogging and almost as much window shopping.



Will blog about the food eventually but here's a glimpse at some tasty goodies we ate with our eyes (Bill Cunningham stole that from me!)

Louis Vuitton on Fifth Avenue

Clear Vuitton??!! Clearly I need it.

Also need more mint in my life.

And who doesn't need more dusty pink

Barney's New York

Can you believe I'd never set foot in Barney's New York in NYC? Not a fan of the service in the Beverly Hills store (wasn't surprised to hear the company is facing Chapter 11.)  But couldn't find any fault with all the GLORIOUS merchandise in the store.

Balenciaga rainbows

And Proenza ones




The perfect flat. Period. The end. Miu Miu wins.

Though these neon and snake Stella's were pretty insanely delicious....

Sunnies for days

The perfect outfit topper for a fashion peacock during NYFW

My mom came within an inch of buying this Phillip Lim 31 bag. VERY Celine, no?

Bergdorf Goodman

Bergdorf's is still my favorite NYC department store. This window of theirs was my absolute favorite of the trip. Mira those shoes!!!

Soho

Discovered four new brands while window shopping this trip: #1 Sandro. Gorgeous cool girl clothes straight from Paris. Starting to hear about it everywhere. Go to there.

Maje is another Parisian brand that's newish to the US. It's on Spring Street right next to Sandro. Both brands have the languid elegance of Isabel Marant but less hippie dippie, more polish.

Cut 25 in SoHo opened a few weeks ago and is the new (lower-priced) line by Yigal Azrouel. Uber feminine and colorful.  Gorgeous fabrics and flattering shapes.  A+. Currently featured on Shopbop.com

Not only did I want every piece of clothing in the store, I'm obsessed with all the gorgeous, hand-made jewelry by Holst + Lee

Tiffany's 

Did you hear about the Rachel Zoe windows at Tiffany's honoring the Oscars? I ran over the day after they were revealed. Loved me some dioramas growing up so dioramas dripping with diamonds? ADORE.

A Second Chance


I love peeping consignment stores in NYC. The selection of gently worn fashion tends to be infinitely better than most LA stores.




A Second Chance on Prince Street is one favorite. The Chanel jewelry is always out of control.

Marc Jacobs


Color blocked perfection. 

Mama and I still heart us some MJ.

Wish I'd set up another amazing tour of his showroom like we did during our last trip in June.
