Christmas window displays!!!

All of the big department stores here have wonderful displays for the holidays, and we went and saw the biggest ones today.
It was a bit hard to get good photos what with all the people and the glare and everything, but I tried.

Chestnuts.
Vintage Dior.

Eric looking at the Chanel swan.
Russian dolls. They were moving and it was cool.
Eric said that is Lenin's head on the table.


Lots of stuffed real animals involved.


Still with the Russian theme here. These dolls were dancing and their house was made of candy and cookies. There is a little walkway higher up in the front for kids to stand on and watch.
She fell down and the peacock's going to get her.
Foxy.
This one was very popular, it's a little rock band and they were all jumping around and singing. Really awesome.
Then their friends were doing a Russian dance in circle on the other side.



Bad picture but it's a glittery fish skeleton.
That sign is advertising the exhibit at the museum where Eric works.
We had lunch in a really French old fashioned type place.
The bar was old and tall.
I think this is a really handsome one of Eric.

Us waiting for the bus with perfume girl behind us.
That ad with the wine glass back there is something. We couldn't see far enough to see what it was for.
The bus that we took home. It's the same one I take to work. There's another ad for Eric's museum on the front. Voila!

  2. Those look really magical. Almost makes me want to take a bus trip up to NY to try to scope out what they have to offer. Have you ever done that? Seems like a very old-timey but adorable thing to do around Christmas.

  3. Thank you for the comments! I think the last time I was in New York around actual Christmas time was when I was little, but I'm not sure. I know it's wonderful there then though!
