Girl’s shopping trip to Williamsburg, Brooklyn-NY

In today’s blog piece, we will be roaming through the electric streets in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. For my best friend’s birthday, I arranged an exciting two hour (approx. 4km) walk with our group of cool and fashion-forward moms to check out some of the best stops in the area. On a sunny Wednesday afternoon, we discovered hidden designer shops & street art while enjoying a great panoramic view of Manhattan (believe it or not, one of the best views of New York City is from Brooklyn). Williamsburg is budding with creativity and inspirations for daily life. The Brooklyn spirit is based on recycling, responsible citizens, community and design. We are so excited to share our best spots with you!
Perks: this tour is perfect for your teen kids! There are skate board shops, cool street arts, and great restaurants.
