Someone asked me the other day what is Fashion Night Out and I thought I would post it's meaning.

This is cool:
Enthusiastic shoppers who are weighed down with their purchases can take advantage of free transportation in various areas of Manhattan! Courtesy of Payless ShoeSource, Gray Line New York double-decker buses will provide “The Official Ride” of Fashion’s Night Out, looping between downtown and midtown, and stopping at key shopping locations. For something a little more intimate, head down to Aveda’s Experience Center at Fifth Avenue and West Nineteenth Street where it will be providing complimentary pedicabs within a fifteen-block radius south of the store.
