The Greenpoint accessories shop drips with nostalgia for a bygone era from the boudoir-style decor to the pinup bathing suits and feather headbands for sale. The focus is on jewelry with necklaces, bracelets, and rings from local designers like Digby & Iona, as well as stunning original pieces from the ’50s.

Off the beaten path. Stocks vintage from across the pond, emerging designers, trendy pieces, and the owner’s own collection (the winter clog boots are a must-have). Great place to digest a cannoli.
