As you know from my previous trips
here and
here, NYC is my home. I can't get enough of the sounds, the smells, the food, the theatre, and the shopping! It took me only 32 minutes to make a dent in my wallet with a ring, pendant, and earring purchase, followed by my coveted Jessica Simpson shoe splurge.
I wasn't planning on buying any jewelry, but I stumbled into the place on my way out of my favorite NYC sandwich joint, CosÃ. It's called Secret of Treasures (488 7th Ave, New York 10018) and everything is approximately $2.99 and under, so it's a costume jewelry fan's dream. I scooped up a Murano glass ring.
How can you resist? This colorful pile of Murano glass pendants was so enticing. I only picked up one, but I could have sorted through the pile for days. I also grabbed a pair of earrings bringing my shopping total to $9.77 for three pieces of jewelry. Now, that's what I call a bargain!
Finally, you know I have been
coveting these shoes from Jessica Simpson. The girl may be a mediocre singer and actress, but she has a
billion dollar fashion empire. Yes, I said BILLION. These are the Dany shoes that department stores and online sites cannot keep in stock. It is a huge 5" heel with a 2" platform heel, but they are comfortable and easy to walk in. I wish it was warm in NYC right now so I could sport them to the theatre tonight. I think I have finished with my shopping here in the city, but I still have another 12 days to go.........wish me luck!
