Where Do Fashionistas Shop?
I don’t call myself a Fashionista because I’m broke as a joke to shop, but when I was working and making a regular income to make my minor splurges, I did my shopping ALL OVER THE PLACE.
In New York (I used to live in Chelsea on 25th St) and I’d walk all the way down Broadway and 5th Ave through Union Square, NYU to ALMOST Canal Street and stop at about Prince St or that Soho area, then subway it back up to about 34th Street to hit up the huge H&M and Forever 21. That was what my Saturday afternoons looked like for about 6+ hours of walking, on my iPod and Blackberry. I’d make sure to hit up the BEST Loehmann’s on 7th Ave and Filene’s Basement on 14th St.
