Last year I had so much fun checking out all the holiday windows in NYC with my husband during the first week of December. In 2016, I officially awarded Lord & Taylor the best window winner! This year, nothing came close to the adorable and fantastic windows at...

On Thanksgiving eve, we took my parents into the city to look at the holiday decorations, and we were all so excited about the theme at Macy's this year. One of their window scenes features a dollhouse version of the classic department store with miniature mice sitting in the urban park outside.

Other Macy's windows highlight penguins, polar bears and Santa all running around and living in New York City. The charm and superb execution of these windows is why I think they are number 1!!

A close second was Bergdorf Goodman's displays. The fantastical windows are so spot on and glamorous, you'd be crazy not to fall in love with them.

Tavern on the Green was decked out with nutcrackers and Saks Fifth Avenue had a Disney Snow White theme that was so popular I could not get one picture!

New York offers some of the best holiday displays in the entire world! If you get the chance... please stroll and take a look this month.

New York City's Holiday Windows 2016

The most marvelous windows (in my opinion) were Lord & Taylor's this year. Simply wonderful!
When I was a student at NYU I started a tradition of walking up 5th Ave. at night in late December to marvel at all the holiday window displays. As time went on, I acquired a digital camera and started photographing each window. Now in my 30's, I still love the tradition of starting at 59th street and walking all the way down to 34th street. Here are some highlights from this year's adventure:

 Despite the freezing temps, the crazy crowds, and the never ending buzzing of sirens - nothing could be finer than taking a stroll in New York at Christmas. It makes me feel like a child again every time!
