Lately, the freezing cold temps in New York City have prevented us from — gasp! — shopping (at least at brick-and-mortar stores). Still, the holiday show must go on. Those on-sale booties and soft-as-kittens sweaters aren't exactly going to buy themselves (um, not to mention the presents we need to get for others). So, I took to the streets, mic in hand, to ask New Yorkers what they were wearing, what they were buying, and how they were staying warm. Watch, learn, but don't be surprised if you feel a bit of last-minute panic. There's very little time left to shop!
