First year was full of great experiances, and the main one was our New York trip in February 2007. This trip wasnt my first visit to New York, I had been the year before so I'd pretty much done all the torristy things and so this visit consisted basically of a huge shopping spree. Accompanied by my rather fabulous companion Dee, we strutted around manhattan going from shop to shop, with many bags trailing behind us. One of our favourite shops was Abercrombie
and Fitch on fifth avenue. It was a fantastic store and really refreshing from all the others as it was like stepping into a night club with really hot model guys behind the counter.



Fendi was one of my favourite window displays while we were over there, thats where I took these photographs. The window design was simple and effective, a great theme of space age and futuristic clothing with mixtures of fabrics and mostly silver colours.


One thing that was the highlight of our holiday was the Mac Make -up collection that was launched, Mac Barbie. It was amazing! Im a huge fan of make up and at the time worked part time for Benefit cosmetics, so this was a collection I had been waiting for for a while. So when we stepped into Henri Bendels it was like christmas had come early. There was a special Barbie Mac stand in the entrance, with models painted up to look like barbie and posing in a barbie set. Me and my friend went nuts and practicaly bought the whole collection. I spent over $500 on make up during this trip but it was so worth it.
Ok so I may have done more shopping than mueseum visiting but alot of experiancing fashion and culture is absorbing the environment which is exactly what I did.
I had champagne in Tiffanys and tried on Manolo Blahnik's in Bergdorfs, just like evry girl should!
