FLORAL DREAMS UNFOLD @MACYS FLOWER SHOW 2025

Floral Dreams Unfold is the theme of Macy's 2025 Flower show 

Each Spring, Macy's Herald Square transforms its flagship store into a floral fantasy-- this year's Flower Show is no exception. Even before you step inside, the magic begins at the windows on Broadway. There, fashion and flowers collide in a full sensory escape. Each window tells a story: whimsical animals, feminine palettes, and imaginative scenes that blend nature, art, and a touch of theatrical flair. It’s like strolling past a series of living postcards, each frame more vibrant than the last. Keep reading for a look at the Floral Dreams Unfold windows of 2025...

Last look at NYC's Holiday Windows @Bergdorfs

2021 brought a test of resilience --from welcoming a new president, to shocking supply chain shortages, to availability of COVID vaccinations (and boosters!) and a gradual re-opening of the world. We saw a FRIENDS reunion, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle speak with Oprah, #FREEBRITNEY and more... and we cringe as we revert back to: long lines for COVID testing, people dying and closed borders / stores / schools due to Omnicron. Given the positives, the negatives and the unexpected in-betweens, the last couple years whisper that the wise soak up the present and treat each day like a glorious sunset. The Present Moment windows @Bergdorfs echoes this sentiment, featuring vignettes of audaciously happy moments, frozen in time. A little late to posting, but what better way to ring in the new year, than with sequins, sparkle, style... and a little sass? Cheers to 2022! Keep reading for one last look at the holiday windows on 58th and 5th...

Heart "vault" at Kleinfeld Bridal

What transpires from a malady of the heart proliferates the power of "love." Some believe love is borne from luck. Others see it as a state of mind requiring definition and refinement. Where some act on account of love, others act in defense against its resulting emotion. Between episodes of 90 Day Fiancé and the second season of the Netflix series "You", the concept of "love" becomes subject to serious scrutiny. In both tangible and intangible forms, love results in both the highest and lowest points in life. As the new year inches in, remember those you love and take a moment to reflect on the reasons why. Have a Happy New Year and Keep reading to see the windows at Kleinfeld...

 Getting crafty in the windows of Moschino, Soho

Donuts dressed in pinked sprinkle paired with coffee, cocoa or a cappuccino could describe breakfast, lunch or or a midday snack. Though my palate has gravitated towards "fresh" and "healthy" lately, science says that snacks possess the power of granting happiness. Hooray for trail mix, fruit and the occasional sack of salty goodness. What's your go-to for a midday snack? This week, don't forget to take a break and grab a bite of something sensational.

Alice & Olivia / Greene St., Soho, NYC

Cultural norms cascade through generations and casually dictate reflex reactions. Sometimes, situations aren't really as dire, outside cultural context. Inclusion has become a sovereign indicator of social shifts. Marriage--for example--now embraces same-sex, interracial or second-time couples. Culinary creativity has popularized fusion in food. As the "Now" is normalizing change; cultural considerations should explore and evolve, no? On that note, enjoy this week's windows at Alice & Olivia, where layering patterns is breaking the conventional sense of "style"...

My mantra of 'memories over merchandise' extends through the last bit of 2018, with a jaunt through Hershey Park and a yurt weekend at Savage River Lodge.

Pausing a minute to enjoy the Luminaries at the Winter Garden Theater, childhood memories and morsels of melodrama flash past. So much has changed, yet so much remains the same.
