A Bergdorf Goodman Wish List


On my recent trip to New York City, I spent several stylish hours in my favorite fashion retailer, Bergdorf Goodman. If you can believe, it is the only store I visited. Every display, each style and designer, is all this girl ever needs. It's all so beautiful, and quite an experience. Today I share some of my favorite finds. Go ahead. 
Make a wish list. 


~ For The Home ~

Floor six is one of my favorite places to start at Bergdorf's. Not to mention that there is a wonderful ladies lounge with sofas and all. Here are some  standout items.

Hand Painted and created by artisans in Bisceglie, Puglia. It's award winning extra virgin olive oil that makes a gorgeous gift for any cook.

So so gorgeous! the NYC skyline is done in beads and rhinestones. A special piece that becomes an instant heirloom

So lovely in linen with embroidered lettering. Prettier in person.

~ For Her ~

Miss "Shop This" actually spent over an hour looking at gowns for her wedding. If you need to get dressed up over the holidays, Bergdorf has a look for you. Here are some of my favorite fashions and accessories for women.

Heading South to a resort for the holidays? Pack these. The perfect accessory for your stylish swimsuit and chic coverup. And yes, they have a red sole!

This gown is so good in person. It's like liquid gold. And it is not as expensive as it looks.

If I didn't have a new Teddy Coat this year, this style would be on my wish list.

And of course, one will need a matching handbag. 

Akris Pearlized Jacket, Skirt, & Top
Found my outfit for the wedding! How fabulous is this leather and tulle outfit? 

I am not one to covet jewelry. But this sparkling set caught my eye in store. It features diamonds, 18K gold and blackened hardware. Delicious!

~ For Him ~

Poor "Mr. Shop This." We didn't even get to the men's store. But that is where one goes for the finest and most fashionable men's clothing around.

Brunello Cucinelli Cotton Cardigan
Exclusive to Bergdorf. This sweater is fabulous,  with a price tag to go with the look. He's worth it though.

And to wear with the sweater, these low top sneakers are perfect! 

As seen in the Shop This "Perfect Presents For Mr. Marvelous," Gift Guide. It's a very buzzy brand right now. The fragrance is well, marvelous, featuring, green lavender, bamboo, and neroli. It's an effervescent scent, just like him.  

"Viva Mezcal" Cocktail Recipe Book
For the guy who fancies himself a mixologist. This leather bound and monogrammed book is a great gift for less than $100.

Cigars as art. I have only seen this at Bergdorf. A good look for the modern man cave.

~ Little Luxuries ~

Every item in the store is luxurious. That's what so special about Bergdorf. 

Guerlain Lipstick Case Gift Set
Exclusive to Bergdorf, this is a limited edition set that no one really needs, but is a lovely luxury. It's Guerlain's best selling red satin lipstick, shade 214. So extra!

Save $50 with Code: BGBeauty through 12/04

Only in New York. Love these by Paula Skene.

I met the owners of this company at Bergdorf's two years ago. And I bought one of these bars as a gift for a Parisian friend. She knows chocolate and said it was fabulous. The pink color is natural. It's a real gourmet treat for a chocolate lover.

Talk about lip service. What fun! The perfect gift for your favorite hostess.

Nike has invested more than 400 Million in programs that make a positive impact on the world, like the Nike Community Impact Fund.
