As the holidays are in full-swing, there are a handful of destinations that capture my attention, and one of them is without question New York City. While I have yet to visit during this festive time of year, it is on my list to do. So when New York City stylist and NYC resident, Tiffani Rogers, offered to give TSLL readers a virtual tour of the city through her lens, I couldn’t say yes fast enough.
Enjoy an insider’s guide to enjoying the holidays in New York City.
It’s been almost a decade since I moved to the Big Apple, and I still get giddy when I see the holiday decorations go up every year. Sure, this city can be overwhelming with the large amount of tourists visiting at this time of year…but after many years of living here I have learned a few tricks of the trade on how to enjoy the holiday season in NYC.
First off, less is more. I narrow down my holiday tradition to truly enjoying just a few things here in the city. The first being the holiday windows at Bergdorf Goodman. No one, I REPEAT no one does their holiday windows like Bergdorf’s. From the designer garments to the intricate details making up the background it is a sight to be seen. Each year there is a theme and this year’s theme is “The Arts”.
I make frequent trips to NYC and November, December and January are my favorite months.The aroma of roasted chestnuts and flurries in the air create the holday spirit.
Would you recommend going on a hop on hop off bus? I usually enjoy it but I wonder whether NYC is too bussy with traffic
