LOVE, ANGEL, MUSIC, HANDBAGS: Although Gwen Stefani will be sitting out this New York Fashion Week, her back-up singers will be working overtime. To celebrate their latest handbag collection, Harajuku Lovers will be performing at New York’s Bloomingdale’s locations throughout next week. First stop is 59th Street, where today, from 12:30 to 1 p.m., they’ll be singing from inside the windows. On Friday, they’ll make another public appearance from 12 to 2 p.m. before heading downtown to the SoHo department store from 3 to 4:30 p.m.

Meanwhile, Bloomingdale’s is turning to another singer, actor Terrence Howard, to help kick off the store’s fall fashion campaign. Howard will perform songs tonight from his debut album, “Shine Through It,” at the flagship at a party sponsored by Vanity Fair and Infiniti.
