Are you going to do any of the tourist-y things (besides shopping)?
What stores to go to in NYC?!

The only thing I would say to stay away from is the Circle Line. It's incredibly boring and it will be unbearably cold!

I just got my tickets for Christmas and just read that Frederic Malle has opened a perfume boutique on Madison Ave.
Another store you should hit is Bond #9 also in Soho.
Get yourself a Metrocard for the subway and bus when you get there...if you take cabs, you will run out of $$$ fast!

I got to say, during my time in NYC, out of all the stores, the Toys R Us ferris wheel was one of my favorites!
Oh, and if you like Anna Sui clothing and cosmetics, it's located in NYC.
Serendipity 3 is a great place for extravagant desserts. Their frozen hot chocolate is their most popular item.

Pretty much what everyone said. You must go to SoHo, they have shops galore! The MAC Pro on 7 W 22nd Street on the 2nd floor, then there's the regular MAC free standing store like a few feet away, Origins is close by too. Of course there is 5th ave where there is even more shops (Saks 5th lol). You can take the train when you're done (subway close by) to Macy's Herald Square (34th street), or if you like walking you can just walk there (although it's a good pull away lol)... Not makeup related but there's this place on the west village called "L'Arte del Gelato"... their Gelato is to die for!

Trash and Vaudeville, another classic store from the old punker days on St. Mark's Place is also a good one, along with Antique Boutique which is right next to the Rickie's in NoHo. Patricia Field (Sex and the City costume designer) also has a store in The Bowery.
I fly on Friday...can't wait to go home and stuff my face with mom's Italian food and visit the new Frederic Malle store!

I went to the Frederic Malle store while I was there...the only one of it's kind outside of Paris. If you love perfumes like I do, you should stop there. They are very generous with samples too!
I am so in love with Une Fleur de Cassie!
