In fact, all of the signs are in both Japanese and English.. and there is even a Japanese concierge there.

We're talking high-end bargains. Think Gucci, MaxMara, Escada, Donna Karan, Kate Spade, Dolce and Gabanna, Chanel, Armani, Barney's New York, Coach, and Burberry... just to name of few of the stores there.

I just love the place! It's situated in the mountains with a beautiful view. The buildings are meant to look a bit like a colonial village. Here's their website.

If any of you are planning a trip to the New York area... set aside a day for Woodbury Common. There are tour buses that take people there from NYC.

I gew up about 30 minutes south of Woodbury Common and everything that blueangel said is so true! 100-person lines coming out of stores on busy weekends... Massive buses dropping of tour groups. They have so many fabulous stores and great bargins. Whenever I go visit my parents, my mom and I try to make a trip there.
