Tea party...


The Chanel windows are fun for Spring, but feel just a little crowded, and the mannequin laying on the chaise looks like she is going to roll off. I still like them though.

Under the Big Top...








Ladies and Gentlemen!! The BG windows on the 58th Street side. Clean out the prop closet!  Incredible fashion and the details:  the lights, the hay, the props, the antiques. Look at the tattooed legs and arms on the mannequin.

Rain, rain, go away...






Burberry breaks away from their large window format and created four shadow box displays with a small vignette with-in each. Hats off for them to break away from their routine -- as long as this does not become the look for the next few months!

String me along...






Leave it BG, the blue lines in the window surrounding the animal figurine is string art. Hundreds of pins, many yards of string and a funky blue animal; oh and some fashion thrown in.  My favorite is the little pig with the red handbag.

Orange-sicle...



The pop of orange and the "c" logo creates a clean window.  The last window felt old with the large flowers, but this simple window feels clean and fresh and ready for Spring.

DK 'n' L ...


The "K" is for Donna Karan,  the "L" is for Lenox.   Join the two... a new window showcasing the new DK Lenox collection.

"Jewelry" and the beanstalk...


What I like about this window are the 3D vines that come out of the window and crawl out above the glass.  Something different especially from VCA.

How much is that doggie in the window...


BG showcases the annual Art and Antique Dealers League of America Spring Show to benefit the ASPCA. Note that all the antiques in the window are animal related. Great window...great cause!

Up the ladder...


Lladro has become more than porcelain figurines. Simple little window showcasing porcelain mirror frames. This window would be even better if there were five or six more mirrors on the wall.

Spring romance...







A beautiful window full of flowers, birds and trees.  A romantic vision of Spring: the chandelier; the deck; the arbour.  As always its the details that make a Ralph window: I love the white peacock and the moss and little ferns in the cobblestone.

Trunk show...





A trunk, a rolling rack, and a few boxes:  clean, simple and white. I love the big trunk filled with footwear and that everything is white, a nice Spring window from DG.

Here comes Peter Rabbit...





Easter at Ralph Lauren. When's the Easter egg hunt?
