The Upper East Side is home to many new and luxurious store openings. For our new series, In the Neighborhood, we profile four of our favorites. Ranging from haute spas to classic American fashion, these establiments are sure to please!
Oak and Barrel

Shopping for wine can be intimidating, but it’s easy at Oak & Barrel, East Midtown’s new wine and spirits retailer. Located at 235 East 57th Street (between Second and Third avenues), this well-organized store carries a wide variety of products, including a great selection of wines under $15. They also know their Scotch and American whiskeys, and host free weekly tastings each Thursday through Saturday.
JJ Eyelashes Madison Salon

JJ Eyelashes gives New York the youthful, rejuvenated skin they’d kill for, using the latest cyrocell and micro-needle therapy. Our refreshing scalp treatments feature the latest technology, providing more than a cleansing. We ensure each client makes jaws drop with their bright eyes, tight skin, and glowing confidence. It’s no wonder why our clients seek JJ as their go-to accessory for all things beauty!
Tomas Maier

In an 1860’s Upper East Side townhouse featuring an Art Deco façade from the 1920’s Tomas Maier has opened his first Manhattan outpost for his eponymous brand located at 956 Madison Avenue.
Established in 1997, Tomas Maier balances classic, understated design with European-made quality. Known for his beautifully crafted swimwear and exquisite knits, the Tomas Maier brand has grown through a partnership with Kering to encompass a full range of lifestyle products. The U.S. based label operates stores in both Palm Beach and East Hampton.

The grand crystals, fresh cut roses, and a personal and intimate atmosphere awaits you. Here, clients take a SPHA-cation from demanding lifestyles that lead to exhaustion and sleep deprivation. Sphatika (crystal in Sanskrit) is the place for connection with one’s inner peace.
