"FacebookPinterestBarnyes NYC Holiday.gif\n\nBarneys always takes an alternative approach to the traditional holiday shopping hoopla, whether it's putting a paper mache Paula Deen or Bobby Flay in their Madison Avenue windows or letting Lady Gaga takeover their tree trimming and this year they're teaming up with Jay Z to celebrate, what else, NYC for the holiday season. Hip hop's elder statesman is bringing, in his words, \"the slickness, energy, and innovation of New York City\" into the enormous collaboration that will include holiday windows, exclusive merchandise from some of the biggest names in fashion and menswear (Balenciaga, Balmain, Lanvin, The Elder Statesman, En Noir, Rick Owens, just to tick off a few), baller essentials like Shawn Carter by Hublot watches and a specially designed Comador humidor, a BNY SCC art gallery installation in the Madison Ave. flagship, and even the store's shopping bags.\n\nFacebookPinterest\n\nWhat's better is you can feel good dropping big bucks on Jay's lu gifts as 25% of proceeds from the \"A New York Holiday\" merch goes to to the Shawn Carter Foundation. Look for the Jay takeover to begin November 20th.\n\nFor more information, visit thewindow.barneys.com"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
