Edon Manner
Styled like an opulent English library, with fashion books inserted into the wall as shelves, white-and-gray-striped wallpaper, and a giant tufted couch accented with fox fur throws, Edon Manor has one of the most aggressively forward-looking accessory selections in the city. Staggeringly high heels—laced with tiny bells—from Azzedine Alaïa are arranged next to Dries Van Noten flats.

Il Bisonte
Though this Italian-born accessories house has a big global reputation, it has only two outposts in the States: One is in L.A. and the other is in Soho, where the entire space smells like gloriously tanned leather. Glamorous, buttery soft totes share the shelves with well-conceived wallets, key fobs, and chic little clutches.

Project No. 8
Occupying a triangular-shaped wedge in a remote pocket of upper Chinatown, this spare exhibition-like store is all about restrained minimalism. Everything here has its precise place, whether it's a grayish green python Martin Margiela shoe or an A Détacher dress. A furniture/men's store of the same name just opened around the corner.

Honey in the Rough
New Mexico native Ashley Hanoush's unpretentious three-year-old shop is packed with pieces that are both pretty and subtle, like floral-print and lace dresses from Thread Social and Dagmar. Plus, it now offers beauty services (Hanoush used to be a makeup artist).

Hotoveli
The newish, easy-to-miss brick-walled Hotoveli—from the owners of the Bleecker Street boutique Irma—has the feel of the VIP room from some cool '90s club. The pieces are fittingly sophisticated and progressive, including Belstaff jackets, tops from Ilaria Nistri and Rick Owens, and LD Tuttle boots.

John Derian and John Derian Dry Goods
It's a rare accomplishment when a store manages to give birth to an entire design sensibility, but John Derian did exactly that. It's equal parts global bazaar, Cape Cod flea market, and literary salon, and it's reflected in everything from his decoupage platters to the silk quilts, feather dusters, and brass candelabra that line the shelves.

Edit
There are only a handful of great boutiques on the Upper East Side (probably because of the top-notch department stores and hardcore high-end designer boutiques in the area), which makes it easy for Edit to stand out. But it could pull its weight anywhere in town, as it offers two floors of standout names like Derek Lam and Marchesa.
