What are we going to do when in New York? Well, first of all, the sample sale season has begun. Think: a lot of beautiful things at a lot of discounts. Then there is again big news in New York related to transgenders (hur hur for this).

Sale sale sale!

In New York, there is now a sample sale to be found everywhere. But for convenience, here are three crème de la crème sales that you should not miss this week. First: on Sunday, November 8, is the sample sale of La Perla (43 Wooster St. between Broome and Grand St.) and that of Anna Sui is on Monday, November 9 (250 West 39th St. between Seventh and Eighth Ave, Room 401). Finally, we have that of Alexander McQueen on Tuesday, November 10 (123 West 18th St. between Sixth and Seventh Ave). Be there!

TransModels

In the Netherlands, the very first transgender wins Holland’s Next Top Model and this week the very first modeling agency exclusively for transgenders opened in New York. As I wrote above: hur, hur!

“Ice Ice Baby”

The largest ice rink in New York is open! With numerous shops on the sidelines (for those who want to avoid a slip) the skating rink at Bryant Park is open again. And, quite unique in this city, it is completely free!
