It's been said that if you make it in New York, then you can make it practically anywhere. Being able to survive New York is one of the best accomplishments that a person can ever brag about because the streets of New York can be really mean. On the contrary, The Big Apple is also one of the best places to shop because there are streets that are entirely dedicated to the designers who want to have their merchandises available to all the people who come to New York and leave with the designers' names in their shopping bags. And speaking of shopping the Big A, you can shop just like your favorite celebrity and when you do, do it in style.
Here are some tips that you can follow to be able to shop around New York, the Hollywood way. Before you do that, make sure that you have a hefty amount of cash with you and a credit card with a good credit limit to make sure that you don't get embarrassed while making purchases and the sales lady suddenly approaches you and asks for another credit card because the one you gave her just got declined. So now we proceed with the tips as promised.
First thing that you need to have that celebrity feel when you go shopping is to look around before you make any purchases. The sales people inside the shop might think that you're just another window shopper. This is the part when you surprise them all, grabbing all the items that you want. Don't ask for the price and don't ever make the price tag your first target. This is very enjoyable and very celebrity-like.
Next thing to make it a real celebrity shopping is to bring your friends or hire a bodyguard to stand beside you during your designer store hopping to draw attention. Trust me, everybody will be coming up to you to see who the celebrity is. Some might even ask for their pictures taken with you.
Another thing to be aware is to never take a cab or even the subway unless you would like to go incognito. With all the shopping bags you have, you must travel in style. It may be a rented SUV or a limo that will be able to drive you to the poshiest stores in the city. Truly an attention grabber and works all the time.
It's also possible to do the celebrity-in-disguise drama by sporting a really concealed look either with a big scarf all over you or a baseball cap while holding your purse on one hand and a starbucks coffee latte on the other. It is normally how celebrities will look like once they go shopping and they wouldn't want to get recognized and draw up a crowd.
Eventually, make Fifth Avenue your destination for shopping simply because it is where the posh stores usually are found. You'll be able to get stuff from Bvlgari, Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Prada, Fendi, Tiffany, Versace and a lot more. Aside from Fifth Avenue, you may even find more upscale stores at Upper West Side or SoHo. - 31834
