Right, that's why 90% of the posts put NY at #1... And they're not all from NY, buddy. Face the facts: Your state is not fashionable.
ppl that are from the u.s. and that don't think that ny is the greatest are in absolute denial. be glad that you have (easier) access to the best city on earth and that you don't have to spend a gajillion dollars like these foreign tourists out here and these immigrants that flock to our city daily that want in on the american dream.

this is a lie. mad ppl are fascinated...anyway, rachel is right. you and a few others (i won't name names but you know who you are) always hate on nyc. you have nothing positive to say about nyc at all. ever. thats cool tho. you're entitled to your opinion but i read your posts with the understanding that you will always hate on nyc.
edit*
and as for walmart, its common knowledge that walmarts are known to over saturate the market. they build and build and build. it starts out with one and becomes many seemingly overnight. just because a city has a walmart doesn't mean that the city isn't fashionable. long island has other stores and also they are obviously next door to nyc and many live in long island and work/have fam/chill/etc in nyc daily.
i have fam in hempstead and there really isn't that much of a difference between them and a nyer from one of the boroughs.
To be honest NY use to be the place to go to shop because most places didn't have certain stores. Now pretty much every city has the same stores now... Nothing really stands out anymore pretty much everyone is doing the same thing... I don't see people in NY being any more fashionable than anyone from Philly,Atlanta,D.C. Or LA. I'm not even from Ny and get compliments on how I dress all the time when I'm in New York I don't thing every single trend starts in NY... Seriously this is not a bash but just a matter of opinion. Ny is only a fashion capital because of all of the fashions shows modeling agencies and boutiques... Not because everyone in Ny knows how to dress, I've seen alot of bama looking people in NY..There is no win over the ny people there going to always feel superior to everyone and they willl never give credit to any other cities for anything.. Sometimes it come across as being very vain

Because those people are the tourists Trust me, I live here and can point out the tourists and locals just by looking at them.
The thing with other cities is that they don't have the density of high scale shopping. Also, how many other areas of the country can say they have like 5 Saks' and 5 Bloomingdales within a radius of 20 miles of the city? I'm guessing you've also never been on 5th avenue for the shopping. Really only Chicago has that density of high-scale shopping.
you won't find the boutiques that we have in cities such as philly, atlanta, dc or la so what are you saying??
you still won't find some "major" stores that we have in other regions...also a few stores that you could only find in ny just started going "abroad" so what are you saying? that would mean that the store started in ny and ventured out to other areas of the country and/or the world. so basically give credit to ny for that since those stores started here.
and if it didn't stand out then ppl in those other states wouldn't be flocking to those stores that started in or were popularized in nyc.
also about texas...i lived in texas for a year. i saw many ppl that were bummy walking around walmart. women with 50 billion kids running around, etc. that doesn't mean that all of texas was like that. just because texas has many walmarts doesn't mean that some ppl aren't fashionable. right, mach?
so just because long island has walmart, because its in ny that makes it less fashionable because you don't like ny? lol @ that.

No one else believes you either, it is not just me
Long Island has more high-end stores than most bigger cities in this country. Don't forget that the celebs and wealthy travel to the Hamptons and shop at all the small boutiques. Take it from me, whose best friend's parents own a store in the Hamptons.
Try traveling? There you go pulling that card yet again. Seems as if you're the one who doesn't travel since you bring it up SO much...lol.

Just give it up. You and the 3 others are not going to convince all the rest of us that you are better than the rest of the country
Why would the celebs and wealthy shop in hick LI when they can shop in Manhattan
Not impressed... can find those stores in any major city in America
