I thought I'd share a story I recently created with the insight of wonderfully talented art director Ali Lee. It was our first time working together and hopefully not the last. The concept was based on the book The Pushcart War. Our lovely model, Chris, has lived on Mercer Street for a few decades by choice. I'm calling this series The Original Hipster because on most days he doesn't even look like he's truly homeless. The post processing is a bit of departure for my real colour obsession and...

Yay I remembered Marni this week! Issey Hervé Léger, let's talk shop. You just opened and already the lighting is beyond awful. This needs to be fixed asap or I'm just going to stop shooting this shit show. What the hell is this? Mmmm satiny. So engagement ringy xxiii Read Full Story

My favorite thing about my blog is the fact that this is my third window holiday season and it's fantastic watching stores evolve and change their themes so drastically each year. I never know what to expect from Vuittons flagship 5th Avenue store. Sometimes it's a total snorefest and other times there are more logos than all of Canal Street combined. But the one consistency with the label is that they always choose and support interesting modern artists. This seasons holiday window art is e... Read Full Story

Let's sneak in a tiny bit of Calvin Klein before I relentlessly take you through what I'm assuming are Barneys favorite items of the season. If you missed the main SNL windows, click on over here. This is so freaking cool, I want the entire setup. And I solved the mystery of Celine closing in front of Barneys. IRONY OF ALL IRONIES...Michael Kors is taking up shop. For those that are not in on the joke, Kors used to design for Celine. xxiii Read Full Story

For those that can't find the Barneys post, for some reason when I post a new page, the 2nd page on blogger disappears until there is a new post. So if you're here for Barneys x SNL 2009, by all means click this link to the post. Two new kids on the Madison Avenue block this week, Devi Kroell and Isaac Mizrahi. J. Mendel simply happened to have the perfect complimenting colours to his new neighbor. Remember the glorious days of all Valentino all the time? This was the only thing of i... Read Full Story

A massively risky move on Barneys part for this holiday season...featuring [almost] no clothes and paying tribute to the hilarious characters from SNL's 35 year long history. I think this is a fresh move and am beyond curious to see how this plays out in terms of sale numbers. I would also like Barneys to start paying me for the tours I give outside of their windows each week [same goes to you Bergdorfs] because this week several tourists had no idea it was Barneys and I had to explain the e...

Um...why are we not twitter friends yet? People need to stop slacking! Add me on twitter because I lead a super exciting life that I talk about all the time [except not, I'm a very polite twitter-erererererer] Whatever, add me and make me feel valid or something. Hermes does baby prostitute chic. This coat reminded me of the traffic guards at concerts and I'm sure various other venues. I don't know what kind of madness the designers were experiencing when they created this creation, but... Read Full Story

Happy Friday the 13th...some creepy Chanel mannequins to start off this icky cold day. Finally Calvin changed their windows, but the items displayed still aren't doing it for me. Not very Calvin looking. For those that are anxiously awaiting Holiday windows, Barneys put up 2 inside the little entrance. The photos aren't my personal best but hopefully soon the full displays will go up and I'll be able to not shoot through 3 layers of glass. This week Barneys switched from Celine to Vena...

I wasn't going to blog today...allow everyone catch up, but I'm too excited not to. I just bought tickets to see Lady Gaga when she's in NY! After fighting with evil ticketmaster.com [why can they never process orders for amazing tickets? Although the tickets I got are pretty ace] I was successful! See you Jan 20th Lady Gaga! So let's become equally as excited over windows. HELL YEAH WINDOWS! Burberry needs to get its shit together. The 444 Madison Tower is getting 2 new stores "Burberr... Read Full Story
