Louboutin display at Saks Fifth Ave

Vanity strikes a pose in the windows of Saks Fifth Ave. In Louboutin's lustrous display, a peacock with spines of lipstick poses proudly. Passers-by become the pleasant face of the perched peafowl. Down the way, a Halloween-themed workshop and Louboutin lounge project scenes built around the red-soled shoes.

Space meets style at Bergdorf Goodman on the 58th Street facing windows

Cosmic geography has changed since the Cold War ended in a stalemate of exploratory superiority. Dogs and humans have raced to the moon. Pluto has been disregarded as a major planet.

And so, style and science are a natural pair for Bergdorf's windows, given the evolutionary element of their respective dominion.

A 2-minute email break between back-to-back meetings Thursday yielded an unusually unique opportunity. I was invited back to the Brooklyn Museum for a second time in 2 months--to see Nana, to experience Gaultier and to (potentially) meet a high profile Mystery Guest! A judgement call was at hand; should I muster up the courage to ask my boss about leaving work or miss an unconfirmed meeting with an unnamed fashion industry celeb? It was a toss up, and chance won out.
