34th Street Weekend Picks: Denim Sale at Forever 21
Unique Eyewear
When you need new glasses, don't forget to stop by this small, family-owned eyeglass shop and get $20 off any purchase of $100 or more (excluding sale frames or lenses). Just ask for Terry or Khaliha, mention the 34th Street Partnership, and take advantage of this exclusive 34th Street deal! Don't forget, this isn't a street-level shop, so get on that elevator and save! 19 West 34th Street, Suite 1218 between 5th and 6th Avenues
Macy's Herald Square
Extra discounts have been taken on merchandise throughout the store. If you want to know what that vest is "Born To Be..." you'll have to visit the Rachel Roy boutique in Impluse on 3. 151 West 34th Street between Broadway and 7th Avenue
Gap
The Summer Sale is on and shoppers can save up to 60% off. There's a large selection of denim on sale, and an impressive variety of GapBody on sale in the lower level. 60 West 34th Street at Broadway

34th Street Retail History: 1992 - 2013
New retailers are coming to 34th Street as we speak: a Swatch boutique is opening in the old Billabong space, Crocs is taking over the old Tad's Steaks, Urban Outfitters is going into 1333 Broadway, Esprit remains closed (although as-yet-to-be-unnamed retailers are looking), and Journey's has left Herald Center, which is slated for a big overhaul and possibly an exciting new store.
Also, early next week we should be able to announce a new brand joining Footaction, Lane Bryant, Cohen's Fashion Optical, Payless, Joe Fresh, and DSW on the West End of 34th Street between Seventh and Eighth Avenues, a block that's had huge turnover in the past year. Go West, young and old shoppers, because retail on the street is expanding towards the Hudson.

Uniqlo: The Finds on 34th Street
I recommend stopping by Uniqlo 34th Street often to pick up great summer items on sale now, because they go fast, and Uniqlo rotates that merchandise like NO ONE's business. Seriously, I come back the next day and my precious Laduree tank dresses have been moved to a new locale. Or worse, they're gone! So I can't guarantee that any of the below that I tried on last week is still in store on 34th Street, but I can guarantee you'll find something just as adorable in its place.
I kind of went nuts for this cropped jumpsuit. I might have bought two. leur logette on sale for $19.90. |
leur logette top, on sale for $9.90. |
These are called tunics (celia birtwell, now $9.90 on sale) but let's face it: these are the best summer weekend dresses/pjs ever. Totally soft, totally cool, totally easy. |
Laduree for kids! |
Lulu Guiness cats. |
There is so much cuteness to choose from. The Uniqlo DIPs (Designer Invitation Projects) and collections have been on awesome overload this summer.

Perfect Combos: H&M Tops & Jeans
Also, their jeans? I love H&M's jeans. I have a pair I've been wearing regularly for over three years now, and they remain my go-to favorite black jeans. The jeans in the photos below are a perfect skinny cut, and are soft as heck. I adore.

From the Archives: Woolworth's in Herald Square
Parade route along Fifth Avenue -- most likely a WWI send-off parade. The parade is heading south; the view looking north. The Woolworth's store is on the far right, and brownstones where the future Arnold Constable building are to its right (north). Date, ca. 1917 Image: NYPL |
Window shopping on Fifth Avenue, ca. 1930. Image: MCNY |
Woolworth's at 35th Street and Broadway, c. 1927 Image: Collection of Dan Pisark |
Fifth Avenue looking north from 39th Street, ca. late 1930s / early 1940s. Image: Pisark |

There are two Foot Locker stores in the 34th Street area, each within blocks of the former Woolworth's store at 35th Street and Broadway, aka 1333 Broadway, which will soon undergo another retail transformation when Urban Outfitters moves in.

Mango on 34th Street: A Business Look
Top $39.99, pants $59.99. |
Occasionally, these pants can look like a skirt. But I promise, it's not annoying like "UGH I wish these clever pants would stop being a skirt." Instead one feels very elegant wearing them, even in the dressing room with wrinkles.
Shoes on sale for $34.99. |
These pants are long (although not enough on me, but I have a very long inseam and they were slightly small on me). Look for these super high wedges on the shoe sale rack.
