Los Angeles: Where to Shop: Fashion & Accessories: Barneys New York

Barneys New York

If you can only hit one store, make it Barneys New York. It’s even better, daresay, than the New York flagship. Anchored with a winding central staircase for grand entrances and exits, the store’s neither too big nor too small. Besides, you can take a load off your feet at Barney Greengrass and gaze at the Hollywood sign from a table on the patio.
