http://www.ajiichiban-usa.com Ichiban (kind-of) means awesome in Japanese, which is fitting for this candy store, even though itas not Japanese; itas a Hong Kongabased company that sells Japanese and Chinese sweets all over the world. This small, impeccable store has an insane variety of treats, including salty snacks like mini roasted crabs and spicy squid rings. But their specialty is preserved fruit. Speaking of plums alone, there is sour plum, salted plum, seedless whole plum, cream plum, iced mint plum, mini menthol plum, slim plum, ginseng plum, and tea plum. Luckily, if youare not sure which variety of preserved plum is for you, you can sample them all.

http://www.annefontaine.com The very French Anne Fontaine keep things tight and focused.

http://www.botticellishoes.com Remember that episode of Seinfeld where Elaine has to give her Botticelli shoes to the waitress at that restaurant so the gang can sneak in and talk to Bob Balaban while he's eating lunch? That show is funny. I'm so glad it's on about 40 times a day, because there's really nothing else worth watching. No one on reality shows cares about shoes, except maybe Paris and Nicole, neither of whom, for the record, would be caught dead shopping here, though the shoes are just fineanot great, not terribleabut just fine.

http://www.calvinklein.com/home/index.jsp Of course you can buy the tried and true at most department stores, but you wonat see as much of the more interesting items, and you wonat see as many brief-clad male mannequins anywhere. Thereas a lot of razzle-dazzle out thereayou have your lace-up thongs, your Wonderbras, etc. But Calvin Klein is not just a boring standby. Your body will look great in underwear thatas focused on fit, and youall feel good knowing your boobs are in the right place. More >>

http://www.crabtree-evelyn.com This mall favorite sells a little bit of everything: perfumed soap and fancy kitchen supplies, lingerie-drawer sachets and floral printed bathrobes. The merch seems a bit fussy, a suburban lady's idea of chintzy English style, but if you're desperate for a last-minute mother's day present, you could do a lot worse. More >>
http://www.dramabookshop.com Faced with burgeoning rent and an ominous "demolition clause," co-owner (and former hoofer) Rozanne Seelen moved the Drama Book Shop from its longtime 48th Street space to one nearly three times as large (at 250 West 40th) in 2001.The store now has amply stocked shelves, comfortable chairs, and a theatrical touch on the balconyathe outrA(c) red couch by which Nicole Kidman cavorts in Moulin Rouge. The staff has the requisite recondite knowledge, handling with aplomb a customer's inquiry about Hroswith. Who? "An Alsatian nun around the time of Charlemagne," says Seelen, who knows from Alsatian nuns. "She did bowdlerized versions of Plautus." More >>

http://www.frenchconnection.com Don't be fooled. There's really nothing for you here, unless you're just out of college: icky, spandex-y riffs on last year's trends sit smugly side by side with dumbass T-shirts emblazoned with the store's brazen and stupid FCUK logo. Are they kidding? No, they're not. More >>
