I hope I will have you again on one of my other shopping days. Maybe you would consider the SoHo boutiques! We have many pretty boutiques in SoHo that most people don't know about. So many lovely things to see!

Hi Flavia, It was lovely to have met you and I hope to see you again. Enjoy your black camel hair coat - a total score for sure! You took my 90 Le Petite Pt1 shopping. Next time why not try my Pt 2 or Pt 3 out in Williamsburg Brooklyn. Brooklyn is beautiful and there are many places to eat out there too.
