Fodor's Review:

Only a few stores in New York occupy an entire city block; the uptown branch of this New York institution is one of them. The main floor is a crazy, glittery maze of mirrored cosmetic counters and perfume-spraying salespeople. Once you get past this dizzying scene, you can find good buys on designer clothes, bedding, and housewares. The downtown location is smaller, and has a well-edited, higher-end selection of merchandise, so you can focus your search for that Michael Kors handbag or pricey pair of stilettos.

  • Subway: N, R, W, 4, 5, 6 to 59th St./Lexington Ave.
  • Other location: 504 Broadway, between Spring and Broome Sts., SoHo, New York, NY, 212/729-5900, Subway: R, W to Prince St.
