🌴 Los Angeles | Ultimate Shopping Guide! The BEST Streets to Explore
I used to love strolling Abbot Kinney Blvd in Venice Beach, but over time, many charming handmade boutiques disappeared, replaced by bigger brands. Luckily, there’s still York Blvd—a hidden gem packed with indie shops! Here’s my curated list (detailed store features coming soon~). 📍 York Blvd Highlights ☕ Kumquat Coffee Start your day here! Opposite is the famous Bob Baker Marionette Theater, which also has a cute little shop. 📚 Pop-Hop Books & Print A treasure trove of books—yes, you can haggle! Perfect for unique finds. ✒️ Shorthand A color-coded stationery heaven—organize your life in rainbow order! 🎀 Crush & Touch Adorable hair clips, postcards, and quirky stationery.
