My Summer Vacation: Escape to New York Part 2
You didn’t think I went to New York City without doing a little shopping? Unfortunately, we were there in an awkward, in between fashion cycle. The exciting events: Fashion Week, The new Marimekko Boutique opening, the last Jil Sander collaboration with Uniqlo, etc. all happen in September.
On the plus side, I was able to pick up four of Uniqlo’s spring designer collaboration shirts for a song. Uniqlo is a Japanese chain and I love their simple, inexpensive casual clothes. Therefore I alsways make a pilgrammage to their SoHo shop. Here’s what I got (clockwise from top right): Vena Cava, Theater Products, Charlotte Ronson and Cacharel. I also bought a pair of slouchy pants at Old Navy. They ripped in the knee the second time I wore them.
I enjoy your website and often reply….I am 81 years old…have tried to ge back into the work world a few years back but couldn’t get hired.. I’m sure because of my age…finially decided to hire myself and opened a shop on Ruby Lane…..I am working hard taking picitures and writing copy for the items I am selling. I am the one who imported the B&G Ketty Dalsgaard bracelets from Denmark. In case you would like to view my shop it’s …www.rubylane.com/shop/virtualmemories.
