Don't Have Any Plans This Weekend............G'on to a Shopping Spree in New York!

I'm not feeling too well today people, but the show must go on. Below are a few places that caught my eye for you to visit this weekend, enjoy!

A.P.C. Surplus
33 Grand St.
Brooklyn, NY 11211

I've actually been to this place so trust me, it is well worth your time to go and see if you can find something to your liking. At only 600 square feet, the space feels a little small in comparison to their Soho outpost, but they utilize it well with sliding walls and racks on wheels. Its modular design looks modern yet manages to fit well with the classic earthy tones that are a familiar part of A.P.C.'s brand identity, as well as with the old facade of the building.










OAK
28 Bond St.
New York, NY 10012

The new Bond store is chic as can be, the picture of Manhattan minimalism. Its white walls, distressed cement floors and high ceilings impart a Soho loft feel that’s undiminished by the streamlined layout. Simple chrome racks line the store lengthwise, bringing the focus to the sculptural shelving that runs down its middle. The clothes are equally focused on structure, dangling from their spare racks in interesting, attractive shapes with very little color.










JOURNELLE
3 E. 17th St.
New York, NY 10003
212-255-7800

This spot is purely for the ladies but Fellas, you can have fun as well. Journelle is a womens Lingerie store that provides couples that intimate setting you both need to warm up a night/ evening in the city. Per the good friends at Metro, "Journelle gives Park Avenue girls good reason to venture a little farther downtown. In fact, ladies from all over town will enjoy stepping into the warmly outfitted intimates emporium, done in dark woods and deep purple accents. High-quality basics like British brand Myla’s black satin plunge bra ($165) line the walls alongside frillier styles from Paris line Princesse Tam Tam and lower-priced bra-and-panty sets from Elle Macpherson Intimates. Complementary items include Elizabeth Cotton pajamas ($195), laundry bags ($6.50) and gel cleavage cups ($44). The best part is, you try it all on in an enormous dressing room with adjustable lighting and plush seating for significant others".
