Spend it like Mrs Beckham
08 May 2006
Victoria Beckham has been out and about in New York, showing off why the city is considered as a shopping Mecca.
The former Spice Girl was preparing for her husband's absence during the World Cup by heading to the Big Apple to pick up some jewellery.
While Audrey Hepburn had Breakfast at Tiffany's, Victoria went for a three course dinner at Jacob & Co spending £8,000 on a watch for her husband and £51,000 in jewellery for herself.
While most people's credit cards might not stretch as far as the Beckham one, shopping in New York is many people's reason for a city break.
While most shoppers head to Manhattan for shopping, April saw the opening of a new centre for those seeking retail therapy in the borough of Queens.
The 300,000 sq ft Shops at the Atlas mall includes 60 stores has been described as a lifestyle retail centre.
The SoHo district of the city has seen the year start with a number of new independent boutiques opening alongside the area's antique shops, galleries and restaurants.
Shoppers heading to the Big Apple for technology will be rewarded with the forthcoming opening of the new Apple store in Manhattan in addition to the one already in SoHo.
