when you're at NdG, cross Houston into SoHo where the best shops are imo

the Bloomingdales there is better than the main one on 61st..it's slightly edgier

there is a Paul Smith flagship store that is a must see (dont bother with the smaller one on 5th ave)

Ben Sherman has a flagship store

tons of cool shops in the entire area
Jean Shop
Blue in Green
Cloak (is it even still there?)
APC
agnes b
etc etc

That entire area is worth spending a days walk in

Midtown Manhattan is more Men's Clothing subform haven, but lot of good shops there too

Last time I was in NY (awhile ago now

), I enjoyed Jack Spade, Built by Wendy, and Steven Alan as well, but of course it depends on your style.

I find the maps at superfuture to be very helpful, although the soho one is kind of hard to read these days.

Ok, well I've got a picture of how the entrance looks (with the sign on the ground and all that) so hopefully it shouldn't be too hard.

Are there any more places that you'd recommend? I assume most flagship stores is located at Fifth Avenue?
