LA Eyeworks

This unusual and happening store is known for featuring the most unique eyeglass designs on the planet and attracts its share of the hip crowd.
Lalique

Best known for its exquisite crystal pieces, this boutique actually stocks the entire product line, including jewelry, watches, and perfume.
Lather

This “modern apothecary” uses only natural ingredients for its innovative skin care products and has an assortment of olive oil soap sold by weight.
Main Street, Santa Monica

A laid-back yet sophisticated string of one-of-a-kind boutiques (with the occasional chain store thrown in for good measure), Main Street makes for a fun and eclectic shopping experience with plenty of cafés for people-watching. On Sundays, catch the farmers market (see Unique Main Street Boutiques).
Maya Jewelry

This small store stocks affordable jewelry, mostly silver, to adorn any body part you wish to, including toes, tongues, and belly buttons. Also has a great mask collection.
Melrose Avenue

Melrose puts the “fun” into “funky” (see Melrose Avenue, Melrose Trading Post). Tattooed 20-somethings pick up vintage clothing, eccentric clubwear, and jewelry in stores between La Brea Boulevard and Fairfax Avenue. West of Fairfax is a newer designer enclave and farther west, the Pacific Design Center is more about trendy home furnishings.
Melrose Trading Post

This cool Sunday flea market takes you back through the years with vintage fashions, collectibles, and retro furnishings.
MOCA Store

A smaller branch of the gift shop at MOCA in downtown LA (see Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA)), this is a great place for artsy souvenirs, from posters to jewelry.
Montana Avenue

You’re likely to bump into celebrities in the upscale boutiques on Montana Avenue. It’s fun peeking at the clothes, home furnishings, beauty products, and exercise gear favored by fashionistas.
Off the Wall Antiques

There’s plenty of kitsch with classic neon signs, vintage toys, Art Deco lamps, and other collectibles at this emporium of weird Americana.
