Thanks for being apart of my inspiration & sharing your beautiful cultures & traditions with me.

 Here are some Stunning Window Displays I shot around Manhattan. If you are in NYC then definitely try to view some of these amazing creations!! They are truly works of art & will surely bring some Holiday Cheer & Smiles your way.
MACY'S
"Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Clause"



I think Macy's nailed it with their Brilliant Holiday Puppet Displays on the Broadway side of Herald Square.

BERGDORF GOODMAN
Known for some of the most original displays for Christmas was extremely captivating this year. "Carnival of Animals" was director & team of visual presentation David Hoey's theme.



"Gaga's Workshop" created with the help of artists Eli Subrack & Christophe Hamaide Pierson covers the magical world of Lady Gaga in several windows. 
Visit the 5th floor for an in-store promotion of her products. Barneys is one of my favorite department stores with out a doubt. I love the ease of shopping & relaxed atmosphere there.

SASS & BIDE - FALL 2011 RTW

This Collection had me fooled but is so refreshing for Fall. 
I love the beautiful ikat tie-dye combinations with the 
pop of coral & fuschia.
These are my favorite 3 looks but I'd just add a warm coat & maybe some leg warmers to be set for the cold winter. 
What do you think?

Wishing You all a Very Safe & Happy Thanksgiving!!
