Bergdorf Goodman

One of my favourite window displays in New York was Bergdorf Goodman.

This years Christmas windows celebrated the stores 111th anniversary and  inspired by Jazz Age fashions. It is every girls dream to walk past Fifth Avenue on a cold frosty morning and gaze into the spectacular windows! 

The windows unfold across five acts: Act 1 - “Tuning Up” features an all-girl orchestra, Act 2 - “Rhapsody in Feathers” presents white peacocks and a fan dancer, Act 3 - “Follies in Miniature” shows little antique mannequins from the 1940s. Act 4 - “Canine Daredevils” involves many dogs and one Alexander McQueen gown, and Act 5 - “The Mirror Kaleidoscope”finishes with a rotating starburst and two mannequins dressed in custom Naeem Khan.

Christmas in New York City

I have been lucky enough to spend the week before Christmas in New York City. I know I would be jealous if I was reading this too! I have visited twice already, one with family and the other time with the fashion retail girls for a university trip.. which was not to be missed! But it was so fantastic to be in New York  at the best time of the year (for the first time)... CHRISTMAS!

 The place was magical, filled with festive fun and spectular sites. The frosty and snowy atmosphere added to the Christmas feel and it really was the perfect way to spend the happy holidays.

To me, New York was a winter wonderland, and it was an absolute pleasure to see the famous and fantastic sites, such as the Empire State Building, Grand Zero, Times Square, Chrysler Building, Top of the Rock, Rockerfeller Center, Grand Central Station, Central Park and the Statue of Liberty.

But the icing at the top of the cake for me was getting the chance to see all the incredible Christmas window displays! I am a sucker for big department stores so I particularly loved visiting Macys, Bloomingdales, Bergdorf Goodman, Saks Fifth Aveune, Barney's, Lord & Taylor and the one and only Century 21.

Even walking past fifth Avenue made me feel like I was in a movie, and on more than one occasion I pretended I was in Sex and the City! (Little secret)

I even visited the amazing Plaza Hotel and pretended I was in Home Alone!

Here are some images of me in New York!
