Actor Bryan Batt of Mad Men fame (he played art director Salvatore Romano) co-owns this elegant, pleasantly eclectic gift and homewares shop. In addition to classically cool New Orleans–print toile, the shop sells gilded glassware, postmodern ceramics and other interior-decor must-haves for the stylishly modern.

If you accidentally knock over a display of poinsettas after the Christmas holidays, and it starts falling...the gracious, unflappable Batt might just swoop in and save it. Not that we'd, er, know anything about that.
