If Hugo Boss on West 14th Street already has their Christmas windows decorations out, then it must be that time of the year already. Granted, Stella McCartney down the way has her same lights up as last year, but Hugo Boss is a label we really didn't expect to be so festive.

When you approach the store from the west, like from the direction of Alexander McQueen like we did, the lit-up letters in the faux snow of the window say "OH HOHO." But if you're coming into the Meatpacking District from 9th Ave as most do, then it's "HOHO OH," like they forgot the extra "HO," or just didn't want the "HO" to be sitting there solo, like so many already do in the MePa. (Zing!)
