Christmas Time in the City, Part 3

Well Sunday sadly came and we woke up knowing it was our last day in NYC. Luckily we had the whole day to run around the city since our planes weren't leaving until 9PM!

After breakfast we met up with the rest of Mom's friends who would be joining her on the remainder of the girls trip (they were all staying until Wed), and headed over to Christie's Auction House. Christie's is currently doing a 2 week exhibit of Elizabeth Taylor's possessions and then auctioning them off to the public for charity. Mom somehow found out about this and we were lucky enough to get tickets to see one of the most iconic jewelry collections in the world! It was truly extravagant. Even her clothes were unbelievably beautiful. I spent the majority of the exhibit trying to fathom how one women was fortunate enough to have all of these beautiful things, and then kind enough to use them to raise money after her passing.

All of those beautiful things must have gotten us into a shopping mood because afterwards we headed to Bloomingdales to brave the crowds and take advantage of their last day of sales. We once again shopped until we dropped and then headed towards Bergdorf's to make our last dinner reservation.

As we were eating dinner we were lucky enough to see Rachel Zoe, Rodger, and her beautiful baby boy walk past us out of the restaurant. For as much as people criticize, she is absolutely gorgeous in person. She also seems incredibly down to earth. We were totally star struck and somehow ran into her two more times before leaving the store. 

We stood in awe as she walked past us once again, smiled, and called "hey babe" to Rodger right before we headed back to the hotel and packed our bags in a taxi.

Hows that for a great ending to an amazing weekend?
