Hey Suzanne! I do all of my shopping online, but there is a shop called ENZ's that sells pinup and rockabilly.  The pinup scene isn't that big here, I rarely see anyone dressed in this fashion.  But what's great is that you can also find a ton of great stuff just by walking around.

For drinks, I love the bar Otto's Shrunken Head - it's a tiki bar and they have rockabilly nights so definitely check out their website.  I've had some fun times here over the years. http://www.ottosshrunkenhead.com/  Also, I haven't been there yet but some girls mentioned the bar nurse bettie as well, it's on my list of places to check out.

If the weather cooperates when you're here, I would also definitely make the trip out to coney island (brooklyn) and ride the wonder wheel, it's a really scenic view, maybe check out the freak museum.

Ugh, sorry I couldn't be more helpful, I'm a bad native! Hopefully others can contribute some ideas. 

XOXO hope you enjoy your trip!

Also forgot to mention, there is a Bettie Page Clothing shop on bowery street, which is awesome!
