While shoppers take a break for the beach in late august and the fashion gurus are up to their noses in the grey and black Fall palettes, we at Shop Gotham are preparing for our Fall shopping tours. There are an abundance of new Garment Center “insider” designer showroom partners, offering bags, belts, outerwear and both casual and dressier apparel. Wholesale is the only way to shop and one can only do this special activity on the Garment Center “Insider” shopping tour. Every Wed and Fri @ 10am. for more information, www.shopgotham.com

1)Because Grand Central Station is not only a fabulous architectual structure, but it has AMAZING food options. Catching a train.. no need to pack your snacks ahead of time

2)Because you can stumble into a TV or movie production on any block

3)Because Alicia Keys is playing free in Central Park this Friday.

If we know all this, imagine what we know about Shopping. Take one of Shop Gotham’s shopping tours and get the true inside scoop

Do the names Lewis Cho, Walter and Rachel Leigh make your knees weak? Good news is that high quality NYC sample sales are now year round (where once they were seasonal). We can thank a difficult economy for this. These and other “scores” can be had THIS week on our Garment Center “Insider” shopping tours. http://www.shopgotham.com/daily-new-york-shopping-tours.php

Occasionally, its worth noting what we uncovered on a shopping tour. On last week’s Garment Center tour, we hit the bi-annual gargantuan Shoe-In Sample Sale. Even though it was Day 3, our 10 guests walked out with 25 pairs of boots/shoes. Timberland, Tory Burch and Michael Kors were the big scores  mostly in the $49 range. NYC Sample Sales rock! even in the winter. Come on aboard with us.  www.shopgotham.com/daily-new-york-shopping-
