Hats, totes and hangbags, men's clothing, and accessories - generally of the retro-cool, whimsical variety - are what you'll find at one of Chelsea's most inviting little boutiques, Gallerie H (222 8th Ave., 212-229-1975). Stetson hats and Fred Perry bags are among the items you'll find here. Along with Universal Gear, Giraudon shoes, and Brooklyn Industries, it's one of 8th Avenue's best shopping bets.
