The new BARNEY’S in Chelsea

Renate and I dropped in at BARNEY’S new Chelsea store.

The lunch room……..simple…….elegant…….sophisticated.

A glass of wine…………….and

The boutiques blend into each other……as do the prices.

Three different jackets………each about the same price….$2200

Sweet!  At $1800 not so sweet.

 

Heels…………$2800…………Renate did NOT buy them.
