Die-hard shoppers will find a few new spots to drop some bucks this summer:
Bellhaus
328 Montauk Hwy.
Wainscott
631-745-9574
According to insiders, Bellhaus, the new boutique that celebrates its opening at a private gig hosted by Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos, is the only retail store anywhere offering the red patent leather Walter Steiger shoes Sarah Jessica Parker wears in "Sex and the City." Get the smelling salts! In fact, there sounds like much to make the high-end shopper swoon at this store, owned by retail newcomer Shawn Bell. (Get it? Bellhaus?) There's women's fashion (Carolina Herrera, John Galliano, Givenchy, Alexander McQueen), men's duds (Carlos Campos, Bottega Veneta), luxe accessories for both, beauty and fragrance products and some goods for the home. Rev up your Amex.
Intermix
87 Main St.
East Hampton
631-907-8025
Sassy meets classy at this cleverly stocked boutique that opened three weeks ago. Big- name designers hang side by side with trendy, less-expensive merchandise.
Rugby Ralph Lauren
32 Main St.
East Hampton
631-907-0960
Ralph is taking over the world - well, most certainly East Hampton - with the addition of his fourth store there that features the Rugby collection. Touted as "modern day eclectic," there is a vintage and athletic flair to many items here which include - natch - rugby shirts, Oxfords, knits, sweaters, chinos and denim.
J.Crew-at-the-beach
84B Main St.
Southampton
631-287-2869
