Traveling with a friend, but not ‘joined at the hip’ in terms of what we each wanted to do in NYC, she persuaded me to tag along on this unusual shopping trip. I had no real intention of buying, although I do love clothes, and appreciate vintage quality. I just thought it would make a change from my usual history/architecture/gallery oriented days out. But it was so much more!
Suzanne started with a kind of briefing in which she checked out our style preferences, got to know us a little and gave us options for the trip. She was very professional, but friendly and fun, and she really does know her stuff! She knows what you are likely to find where, and tailors the shops you visit to what she thinks will be the best for your requirements. The thrift and vintage stores we visited were really interesting, and there was just so much beautiful stuff to try on! She gave sound advice on colour, quality and appropriate price, and was expert at rooting out that day’s best designer buys! What a treat to shop with a real New Yorker!
My friend found a gorgeous hand-made Vogue jacket for a steal - and I came away with a Kate Spade bag, a double layer silk top in the most perfect colour, a fitted wool jacket (€30!) and another wool slouch jacket which I wore out that night.
It was such fun - and a real insight into another side of New York. I just wish I’d had a bigger suitcase! Thanks Suzanne!

I had such a blast with both of you! So much fun! Such a wonderful day! You have to remember to send me a email when you are in New York City again. We can always have a cocktail at my place then head over to the new 'Virgin' hotel and 'Ritz Carlton' - opening this summer 2020 across the street from me. I can't wait to see what their cocktail lounges look like. I be you they are beautiful. More than likely they will have rooftop views!
Thank you for taking the time to write me a review.
