And so many of my favorite spots have been discovered by accident while walking by. You’ve got a lot of ground to cover as LA is a very spread out city. The number one thing I can recommend if you want to shop in LA is where comfy shoes. Don’t worry, there’s plenty of marble surfaces in there too. And if you’re hungry I recommend Ostrich Farm for brunch, lunch, dinner – you name it. It’s a calm spot inside for a bit of R&R in between shopping. Still need more caffeine? Hit up Eightfold for my favorite cappuccino in all of LA.
ALFRED COFFEE SOREL SHOES PLUS
It’s where my engagement ring and wedding band are from, plus their pottery selection is insanely good. For clothing I recommend Ali Golden (chic minimalist pieces) and Myrtle (blend of vintage and new and oh so colorful) – for housewares and jewelry it HAS to be Esqueleto. It’s a growing shopping destination, and there are plenty of great choices. Now if you’re over in my neighborhood – Echo Park – you have some smaller boutiques and some lines you may not have heard of. Re/done high rise ankle crop / monogram tee / SOREL Torpeda Sandal / sezane purse It’s multi-level vintage shopping, so try not to get overwhelmed. If you’re not too shopped out, stop in JetRag (vintage heaven) along the way to Echo Park. Try the rose tea latte and thank me later. It’s all sorts of blush pink goodness, and even if you aren’t a regular tea drinker, you will love what they have. There’s Alfred Coffee for delightful cappuccinos and lattes – but if you want a bit more of a photo op, you HAVE to hit up Alfred Tea across the street. Need a boost of caffeine? Okay, you have to make a choice here. Make sure to take some pictures in front of their huuuuge succulent garden.
For clothing there’s APC, Rachel Comey (drool), and of course Isabel Marant. It’s miles away from being like Sephora, and where I’ve found some of my favorite products. Violet Grey is an incredible makeup boutique that feels like shopping in a chic friend’s own private collection. If you find yourself on this little block, here are my must-visits. It’s this tucked away little block of shops that has a quieter feel than Melrose Ave. One of my favorite spots to hit up is Melrose Place. I live on the eastside in Echo Park, but I spend a good amount of time in West Hollywood.
So let’s start with the westside for some of our favorite shopping destinations where Stephanie and I laced up our SOREL sandals (how cute are her white wedges?!) and hit the pavement. So whether you’re on the eastside or the west, you’ll be sure to find some treasures. We’ve seen and done some amazing things along the way, but for our final chapter, we’ve decided to take you on a shopping tour of our own city – Los Angeles. I could buy the craziest, most colorful pair of sneakers on the market and as long as they include blue or green accents, I’ll be able to build a color story.I can’t believe that this is my final #DestinationSOREL story! If you’ve been following along, you’ve traveled to Seattle, Austin, and Charleston with Stephanie (of Honey & Silk) and I. One glance at my clothes rack will tell you that I gravitate towards shades of blue and green. The first is by picking a color combo that compliments the majority of your closet. There are two ways to ensure that your vibrant-hued sneakers will still be versatile enough to match most of your outfits.
Just because something is colorful or bold doesn’t mean that it can’t be a wardrobe staple. I grappled with the same dilemma until I realized that colorful sneakers are an everyday shoe choice. Initially, colorful sneakers are a bit daunting-it can be hard to justify spending money on what seems like a statement shoe when you’re looking for an everyday staple.

What To Wear To A Wedding: 7 Venues, 7 Complete Looks You don’t have to get rid of your Air Force 1’s, but maybe I can convince you to switch it up. I’ve made the executive decision that white sneakers are so yesterday and that the colorful sneaker trend is here to stay. They’ve stuck by you, they’ve been through the wash (more than once) and quite frankly, they’re getting a little boring. Maybe they had one too many nights dancing on a sticky bar floor or kept you comfortable while you stomped around a music festival. I’m sure there’s a pair of white sneakers in your closet that aren’t looking so white anymore.
