Bergdorf Goodman New York
These are premier designers and their luxury goods. Must admit that just swinging that fudge-striped bag around town somehow feels over the top.

The Spa at Mandarin Oriental New York
Holistic palace delivers the royal treatment in every sense (for example, instead of getting treatments, you go on “journeys”). Who knew you were so well suited to pomp and circumstance?

New York Center for Iridology New York
Who knew eyes could indicate tired spleens, sluggish lymphatic systems, and states of internal distress? Iridologist Judy Vedder “reads” irises (every area of the eye corresponds to a body part) and identifies potential trouble spots. A little wacky and totally neat.

Mario Badescu Skin Care New York
The first and last word in facials. Mile-long list of impressive clientele. Plenty of products to take home (the drying lotion is a lifesaver).

Whittemore House New York
Highly stylized salon in a gorgeous landmark townhouse. Color director Victoria Hunter wields a mean hair paintbrush (she’s known for creating soft highlights and lots of dimension). Stylist Colby Alcantar has a sharp snip and a fresh point of view for your do.

Pepper Pastor Salon New York
Beauty salon nods to fantasy and glamour. Sit on a 19th-century Victorian sofa, marvel at magnifying glass sconces, a chandelier made of clawed-feet candle sticks, vintage jewelry, and floating wood shelves lined with Philip B and Oribe products. It’s all about making an impact. Let your stylist do the talking.

Great Jones Spa New York
Hydrotherapy rules at this luxe coed water cure lounge, where dipping into bubbling pools, saunas, and steam rooms is encouraged post-massage. Ask about the Vichy showers.
