So have you ever watched Breakfast at Tiffany's and envied Holly Golightly? Well then you have to come to massive New York City landmark. I know there might be a Tiffany's  in your town but really there is no comparison. This is the first one and in my opinion the far greatest. They do have relatively cheaper jewelry like those designed by Paloma Picasso and Elsa Peretti but the fabulous jewels are on the 2nd floor. And guys don't feel left out in the cold because they have cufflinks and money holders.

This store is one of the best boutiques in Georgetown.  It has a great array of designers and is particularly great for cute party dresses.  They always have pretty girly options in great colors whether a dress, top, or a bikini.  Make sure to look in the back for the sales.

This is a great store for guys and girls.  Although there are other locations, get your prep on in Georgetown.  They have a great selection in this shop and the staff is super helpful.

This store is so girly and completely adorable.  One of the best stores in Georgetown.  Definitely a little pricey but the shoe selection is amazing.  Buy some high heels for a special event!  Don’t overlook their great accessory selection.

This high street fashion store has everything: both men and women's clothing lines, vintage (downstairs), accessories, and so on.  It's cheap and fashionable.  There are many all over London but the best one with the largest variety is in Oxford Circus.

Fafi: She's Got it!

Today graffiti is an artistic style, both respected and learned. And don't think that NYC is the hometown of graffiti, no, there is a new graffiti tigress on the block and she's a Parisian.

Truth is, she isn't that new. Fafi is the name of the game. She was born and raised in Toulouse, France where her outrageous female cartoons were first noticed in 1994. Her color palette is wild and just as blazing as Rainbow Brite.

Fafi has created a new species of female cartoons. Her little spitfires are voluptuous and full of attitude.

Once her work was noticed she continued to spread the paint all around the world: Europe, USA, Japan, and China. She takes with her a team of graffitists called, Fafinettes!

It's a Fafi world out there. Her recent work can be seen in the designs for LeSportSac, Adidas, Coca-Cola, numerous fashion magazines, and the new Mark Ronson music video; where she created a Fafi-ed Lily Allen character that seems to be a play off of the seductress, Jessica Rabbit.

More importantly, Fafi is giving power to the women.

If you would like to purchase a cheap pair of sneakers, turn around...you've come to the wrong place. This downtown hotspot is for the ultimate sneaker collector. Some of their most popular sneakers include the Nike Dunk by Nike Skateboarding or the classic, Nike Air Force One. They also sell many other brand sneakers but Nike is their specialty. Collectors will search high and low for certain sneakers but in the end when they finally visit Flight Club they find them. It is a very extensive and mostly expensive store. The most expensive shoe is around $9,000! There is also a Flight Club in Los Angeles. Check it Out!

This is one of the most amazing department stores in the world.  It is always cutting edge with the designers it carries (both international and homegrown French designers).  There are plenty of floors to explore and tons of styles to pick from.  They have everything for both men and women: clothes, accessories, cafe, and a new floor opening dedicated to souvenirs.  Also a fun thing to go to is their weekly fashion show at 3 pm on Fridays.  Some of their merchandise can be a bit pricey but they do always have great sales.  While shopping at Galeries Lafayett

Shoes in a shop

Are you a shoeoholic?  Well if you are come here!  If you think the name is cute it’s nothing compared to the shoes.  They carry flats and heels.  But if you don’t make it into the shop don’t worry because most of the major department stores carry their shoe
