Yesterday Di Overton said....I love Tiffany's windows anytime of the year.
Tiffany only has 4 small Xmas windows... Inside is very grand and huge, but no pictures are allowed, so back outside... The window on the corner of 57th street and 5th avenue has a giant peacock guarding a silver what..keg? Qui sait:) Around on 57th street this golden casket to house your diamonds..? Whilst a paper chandelier tries to out shine a crystal chandelier... Enfin! The little blue box we all love to covet... This icy goddess is keeping watch... Well two icy goddesses keep watch... Over this icy version of the little blue box...
Lovely window displays. I will always picture Holly Golightly standing there gazing in.... but you are 'Holly' with a camera. :)) Love the peacock. Great photos Carol.
Thank you so much for all the work you put into sending your daily PB posts. I love the Christmas ones especially the decorations in the stores in NYC. My dream is to go to NYC at Christmas but until I win a big lottery, it will not be possible, so in the meantime, I am enjoying it through your beautiful pictures When I was turning 21, I was supposed to go to NYC to celebrate my birthday with some friends from my church, but at the last minute, I didn't get to go. I was so disappointed especially after I heard the ladies got to stay at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel as guests of one of the ladies's husband and he treated them to "Hello Dolly". I am now 64 and still dream of visiting NYC. Thank you again for all you do. God Bless Patty

Season's Greetings I am a subscriber to your blog and I love, love love it! I thought I would forward this to you. It's for Miss Dior Cherie and in the commercial there are sumptious shots of your beloved macarons! It reminded me of your blog. Note the dress the young lady is wearing...sigh...

Hi, I’m Carol Gillott, watercolorist-ex-NYer living on Ile St-Louis in a 21 meter chambre de bonne, sending out Illustrated letters monthly from Paris. I’m a travel artist, travel blogger, writer, watercolorist, photographer, I share my personal experiences so you can travel vicariously through my sketches and words. I paint Paris dreams (jam jars, macarons, cups of hot chocolate, peonies) and mail 📮 them ❤️ wherever you are 🌎 Receive an illustrated letter 💌 every month from Paris, France 🇫🇷
Describe what you love about France in 3 words. Can we make it 5 words? Eyes, ears, nose, tastebuds + brain. Paris stimulates all my senses constantly. I’m inspired all the time – endlessly surprised and amused. New York doesn’t do it for me anymore…

I ordered a Tiffany box chew toy for my soon to be privileged puppy. At least one of us are getting a Tiffany box.;-)
Love the photos and a glimpse of the big city.

The blue box with charm bracelet! What girl would not love it?
Pretty!
So icy and perfect for the season.
(Do you ever paint little orange boxes?)
Ah, the famous little blue box! I didn't get the chance to receive one! next year, maybe...
Thank you once more for the wonderful pictures, Carol. Joyeux Noel!
