where you have to stop in new york’s shopping mecca.
Here at NYLON we're shopping obsessed, but you probably already knew that. What you didn't know is that on our lunch breaks we tend to sneak off after grabbing a sandwich from Olive's to check out the awesome stores in our 'hood, the shopping mecca that is SoHo, New York.
Instead of being greedy and keeping our favorite shops to ourselves, we decided to share our wealth of knowledge with you. Whether you're a native New Yorker or a tourist looking to find the best boutiques to hit up on your trip, you're going to love these stores big and small, guaranteed. The hardest part of checking out each of these will definitely be not blowing a paycheck be the end of your trip. #YOLO?
