Purple Passion is a shop for those into the BDSM/leather scene. They have a great selection of fetish wear -- high quality, which means highly expensive and one of the best selections of latex clothes in the city (other than Damask). If they don't have something in your size, they can probably order it for you. Also, the store may seem intimidating, but they're seriously nice people.

I originally found this store in college, when I spotted a brown leather knapsack in the window. That was about ten years ago and that knapsack is still going strong. This store produces leather bags, wallets, purses, and other accessories of such a fantastic quality, anything you get here is an investment.
Since moving to their Great Jones Street location, they have also added a studio to the back of the store. There, you can pick your fabric and have anything custom made to your specifications. A product of such a collaboration for me was a beautiful, paprika colored hobo bag of incredibly supple leather. I was able to choose the fabric, cut, and precise hardware I wanted and it came out to $250, making it an unbelievable value.

David Owens vintage specializes in the most unique and also the most beautiful old time furs. They carry name brands and hard to find funky outfits from different style periods from the 1950s all the way up to the 1970s. The older furs are kept in pristine condition but are terribly expensive so watch out! They carry vintage outfits for both men and women. Excellent selection.

More
This small shop in the Upper East Side contains an immense variety of handbags and purses, in fabrics and colors of all sizes. In spite of all good intentions to purchase a bag of a specific color and style, it is very easy to get swayed in your choice after surveying the extensive stock which they carry.
Their selection is well-edited and indicative of the latest trends in handbag accessories. The sales staff are very helpful and overall, I find the the products to be of very good quality - a mix of known and less-known designer names. I only wish I had the funds to actually purchase more of the stock, and not just drool over it.

If you are not opposed to wearing some fur, this is a great place to have a custom coat, or lining for an existing coat, designed just for you. If you have a vintage fur piece that you want to re-use, even better, and they will advise you, based on condition and your planned use, the best way to utilize the fur. I think a super warm raincoat is a great way to go, and not flaunting the fur for everyone but enjoying the warmth on those freezing NYC days and nights.

Mary's Dairy has fantastic icecream. Many of the flavours are fairly familiar, such as cookies and cream. But the freshness it what makes the difference. It truly tastes like it would if you made it yourself. This store also has a couple of chairs and tables, and usually some really loud dance music blasting. If you can hear yourself, it's a decent place to chill out for a bit with a friend before you continue your day.

My mother gave me her old lamb coat. It had a beautiful cut and color, but their were several tears in the fabric.
I took it to George and they did a nice job on the repairs. The works was finished quickly and they didn't charge and arm and leg. They do a lot of custom stuff here. Some of it looks thuggish but other styles are quite tasteful. If this is your thing--don't want to weigh in too heavily and offend PETA fans out there.

More
Another top quality shop that caters to men's footwear for all occasions, but particularly dressy and fancy business casual. They are expensive, but the price is offset by the quality and comfort, and long wearing ability of their shoes. You won't find a better fit anywhere in the city, and they will keep your measurements and order history on file so you'll know what you want to reorder. They are located in the center of the Madison Ave shopping area too

The Noose sells hard core made in Europe whip and chains (more heavy on the whips) sex toys. It's more for the kinky core than soft core sex crowd and the place can be a little intimidating so bring a friend. The prices are quite high. The bondage suits alone can cost over two thousand dollars. Still if you are into S&M type stuff.
