Im a little late on the holiday wishings, but today is New Years and in the good spirit of the new year, I wish everyone a happy holidays! If you are starting a new years resolution, wether to eat healthier, save more money or to be a little more glamourous everyday, stick to it!! Mine happens to be to blog more, so expect more blog posts in the near future!
On to the main point of the post, one of the most exciting things about the holidays in New York are the Bergdorf Goodman windows. From all of the years from my memory and pictures, my fathers jewelry was showcased in the BG holiday windows. We used to visit the windows the night it opened and take turns posing in front of the windows!
In this mornings NYT, Bill Cunnigham had his usual street spotting page, but was inspired by the Under the Sea BG window. He had the BG window as his main inspiration, which I also pictured below.

My favorite window was the 'Under the Sea' window on 5th ave. It is decorated with gorgeous fish mosaics, coral reefs, and 20 pieces of Dweck jewelry (I literally stood there for 10 minutes counting over and over again!)
Most of the SD pieces were from the archives, and some were new, on sale now. My father did a lot of bronze and silver starfish with precious stones in the middle, like aquamarine. Many of the pieces included coral, sea shells, mother-of-pearl and other precious materials from the bottom of the ocean.

As children we always used to take turns taking pictures of each other posing in front of our father's name, we looked forward to it each year!!
Another window was inspired by wood, and the window was filled with prop animals and some jewelry. (sorry about the glare, but it was really beautiful!)
The mannequin wore a SD wood bead necklace and bronze tiger eye cuff.
This was another beautiful window, entirely decorated with copper and birds of all shapes and sizes. The entire floor was covered with pennies and the walls were copper bird wings! But one of the most spectacular pieces was the vintage SD birdcage necklace. Its so fun to try on, but it literally weighs 10 pounds!

Have you seen the windows..which was your favorite? If you answered no and your in the area, go see them!! The windows are easy to find because of the massive crowds in front all taking pictures!
I also wish everyone a wonderful, successful, happy and healthy new year!!!
