FASHION NIGHT OUT - New York City

Every year, New York City celebrates Fashion Night Out and Fashion Week.  It's when Fashionistas come to New York.  The stores have various ways they celebrate Fashion Night Out.

Many offer wine and even champagne when you step into their shops.  One of the designer stores had a stage outside for the Radio City Rockets of the Radio City perform.  There were also models at Rockefeller Center like the one below.

What Fashion Night Out would be complete without some food.  At Henri Bendel's they dedicated their 3rd floor to food available at Hester Street Market - a Saturday destination in Spring through October in the Lower East Side of Manhattan where one discovers new food purveyors starting up their business.  I was getting hungry so I was glad they had food on this floor even if I had to buy it.  I got myself a meatball slider with Jalapeno onion sauce and strawberry lemonade.
