If you haven't been to the official Fashion's Night Out website, I highly recommend it! This is the kind of website that you could spend hours on, sifting through the myriad of options available to shoppers on September 10th when FNO goes down. You can even create a sample itinerary to help you organize your shopping priorities. There are just way too many options to chose from, though, so I had a very difficult time just narrowing my selections down to eight. Obviously, the place to be is Bergdorf Goodman, since that is where Hamish Bowles, Tom Ford, and Victoria Beckham will be. Yes, please!
