CHOCOLATE BAR AT HENRI BENDEL
Welcome to Chocolate Bar at Henri Bendel, a devilishly sophisticated playground, where mod counters and open café seating seem to float within the café’s airy quarters, where the staff is exclusively and fashionably attired in a chic, cap sleeve mini dress by one of Bendel’s favorite designers, Stacey Bendet for Alice + Olivia. Feminine yet eclectic design elements, including creamy leather couches, eye-catching graphics and smooth modernist lighting, combine fluidly to add texture to the surroundings and usher in the next generation of cosmopolitan luxe. Despite the refreshingly modern feel, still a hint of nostalgia embeds itself within the retro-reconfigured furnishings that add vibrancy to timeless style. “Chocolate Bar at Henri Bendel is a contemporary take on a social salon, where our Bendel girl can have a quick coffee or a leisurely meal,” states Ed Bucciarelli, CEO and President of Henri Bendel. “The café offers a new spin on classic New York fare with its own line of savory selections, chocolate sandwiches, gourmet soups and mixed greens—including a revamped return of the legendary Bendel’s Salad.” The café also serves a fine assortment of Chocolate Bar’s award-winning truffles, baked goods, and confections alongside a selection of imported wine and champagne. An array of coffee and tea offerings will also be available, including Ma Rose 1927, a unique green tea blend exclusive to Bendel’s that contains hints of rose petal, a nostalgic nod to Mr. Bendel’s preferred flower and one time signature perfume. Enter a world of irresistible influence and edgy refinement, where indulgence is only a teacup or designer dress away. For more information please visit www.chocolatebarnyc.com

Vintage clothing is just one of those things that doesn't really work for me (nothing fits right), but if you're into it, you'll want to check this place out, even if just for its legendary status. As far as I can tell teh selection is good and the prices range appropriately. Fun fun fun.

Pearl River is a department store of goods from China that started in Chinatown and moved up to Soho. You will find everything from food to fabrics and lamps. Speaking of lamps, if you like Noguchi lamps, yes I know he wasn't Chinese, save some money and take a look at the shades available here. They have clothing for adults and children.

They remind me of T J Maxx, but the brands they carry are much better. The first time I went in and saw their shoe department, I didn't think it was a place I needed to wander into again. But, one afternoon, I looked down the stairs before I went to the T J Maxx two floors above and noticed they had towels on sale, I decided to take a look. I found out then how the store's policy was setup. They do not like to keep merchandise that is not selling, so they mark it down further and further, until it is gone. My fiancee was able to find two nice dinner dresses there for under $25!

Do you need Hamburger Earmuffs? A toilet brush/fly swatter? Hammacher Schlemmmer is the place that might have items such as these because it's is the place to go for odd and novel things that are both useful and unnecessary at the same time. You can go there to enjoy their massaging chairs and vibrators and silly expensive adult toys. It's a fun place and you'll always find something you're sure you'll never need.

This store is great because it offers modern stylish clothes at a very cheap price. The styles are always those of the season, and the clothing ranges from sporty to casual to dressy. If you are not looking for designer clothing, but want something contemporary, this is the store to shop in. There isnt much help from the sales girls, but i didnt find that to be an obstacle in my shopping experience. Another upside, there are tons of stylish clothing stores in SoHo.
