Christmas Window Dressing


Don't you love looking at Christmas decorations in store windows? I sure do. Here's some we saw in Philly and NYC.



Sacs Fifth Avenue's theme this year was Snow White. It was quite beautiful, though I'm not sure what the Christmas connection was. The light show (trailer below) above the windows was breathtaking.

    Ooh, very cool. That light show is stunning, and I love the photos, too. The one of Mr. and Mrs. Claus is especially cute. :)

    And Disney recently released a limited edition doll of Snow White exclusively through Saks Fifth Avenue, which is probably why things were themed around that movie...heh.

    Wow, those window-shows are all so cool, just wonderful. Haven't been into town here so don't know if there's anything worth seeing here! But it won't compare wit NYC! Hugs, Valerie

      I bet your area is wondrous. It seems to do festive, really well:) It may not be NYC, but the upside is you don't have the crowds.

      The light show was amazing. The M & M store had a cute one too.

      The window dressings are beautiful to see, but NYC the day after Thanksgiving is overwhelming. The crowds are unbelievable. Philly is more my speed.

    Amazing things to see. While we have nice Christmas windows, darkness arrives here at 9pm at Christmas time, so no lighting shows.

    They sure come with with some neat displays. Here the most we see is lights in the window, if that.

      Around here it's pretty much lights strung over the streets.

      I think a lot of stores don't decorate for Christmas like they used to, unfortunately.

    Snow White isn't really Christmas but the displays are pretty anyway.

    I love window displays which seem to disappear more and more. I’m glad to see how big they are there. I see Saks made a deal with Disney which is why there is no true Christmas involvement but it is still beautiful to look at and watch

    Window displays are always fun to view, especially in NYC. I agree I am not sure what Snow White has to do with Christmas!

      Window displays are fun aren't they, True.
      Yup, I think Snow White came under commercialism:)

    Tis the season! Students at my school (got a new job!) were decorating the hallway today. Fun to watch them as they made choices and decorated independently.

    Those are so pretty. We don't have any store windows that have displays.

    Love,
