My Study Tour visited the one and only Bergdorf Goodman department store last week to get a taste of what luxury really is.
I have always been comfortable dressing in inexpensive clothing, whether it be from the H&M down the street or from the local Goodwill (where you can always find a few gems!), but I'll admit walking into Bergdorf and coveting some of their beautiful clothing. As a broke college student, I pride myself on being able to put together nice looking outifits for little money, and therefore am not saying that I absolutely wanted everything in the store, but seeing all of the well-made designer clothing really opened my eyes to what luxury is.
Upon leaving Bergdorf, I realized that luxury is not necessarily evaluated by how much something costs, but rather, how it makes you feel. I could tell that Bergdorf employees treated each of their customers as if they were family, and offered an abundance of one-on-one time. The clothing is expensive, yes, but with the price tag comes not only the clothing, but the customer service and beautiful shopping atmosphere.
