Give us a quick, dream-day shopping itinerary. Space and time don't matter!
"My favorite shopping experiences usually have to do with the company I'm with and how tasty the food options are nearby. I love shopping with Cathy, because we pick out stuff for each other, though I usually get hungry before she does.
I'd love to check out some new spots, like textile markets in East Africa or antique shops in Buenos Aires, but for now, I will stick with what I know. New York's East Village has an abundance of vegan desserts and expertly curated vintage shops right up my alley, plus some new gallery-like spaces extending to the edges of Chinatown, NoLita, and Soho. I would love to be able to go to Merci in Paris at any time, and the Krystalgade blocks of Copenhagen for the excellent European vintage and Henrik Vibskov, Wood Wood, and antique bookstores."
