This pastel-painted boutique is hard to miss and often referred to as one of the city’s best spots for gift shopping, but we prefer to stop by when we’re looking to buy a gift for ourselves. Accessories are the name of the game, with a roster of so-hot-right-now names—Clare Vivier bags, Pamela Love jewelry—and lesser-known designers, many hailing from our own fair city. We usually head straight for the women’s shoe section, which bears a neatly edited collection of Dieppa Restrepo’s cheerfully-colored loafers, Rachel Comey booties and TenOverSix’s own brand of subtly sculptural dress pumps. The airy shop, which resembles an art gallery more than a traditional retail space, is also a great place to come for gifts. Look for kids’ gear, indie albums, small leather goods and fragrances that are hard to find anywhere else.
In a neighborhood brimming with stylish boutiques, breaking down the best shops in West Hollywood is no easy feat. Sure, WeHo’s restaurants, lively gay bars and Sunset Strip club scene are go-tos by night, but by day, this happening ‘hood is ripe for top tier shopping (and a necessary afternoon pick-me-up at one of many local coffee shops). Call it the interior design mecca of the West side or, better yet, a watering hole for LA’s savvy tastemakers and fashion bloggers. From high-end boutiques and furniture stores to hole-in-the-wall bookstores and sleek camera shops, West Hollywood has more than enough spots to satisfy your retail cravings.
