But, my +1 cannot resist this boutique and always takes home pieces that are destined to become favorites. She gets complements and the inevitable "where did you get that" inquiries.

My favorite clothing store on Abbot Kinney…read more Ananda is one of the first stops on our list when my friends and I are in the area. This small boutique specializes in female clothing, accessories, and fun knick knacks. I purchased my favorite corduroy pants here, as well as a few tops/dresses. I love that every item is unique and you won't find it copy/pasted across the Venice boardwalk. It's also a great place to search for the perfect gift. I found a dainty gemini necklace for one of my best friends and she's worn it non-stop for months. Highly recommend checking it out if you're in the area! While the items aren't cheap, they're definitely more affordable than the majority of Abbot Kinney shops.

DO NOT BUY CUSTOM LEATHER JACKETS HERE…read more These guys have no idea what they are doing when it comes to measurements and tailoring and have terrible customer service to top it off. I wasted $1,600 on a leather jacket that's 10" too big for me and they won't exchange it or give me my money back. I stopped into the store one day, and a woman named Mary extolled the many benefits of a custom tailored leather jacket, mainly the specifics of how well it would fit. I bought one, and she took my measurements for it at the store. Nearly six months later it arrived and was WAY too big (see photo #1). We arranged for a return and she asked me for my correct waist size. I told her (and this is in writing via email exchange "I wear a size 32" jeans") and she assured me that would be enough for the correct jacket to be sent. Another nearly six months go by, and the new jacket arrives. And low and behold, it is again way off in the waist. I measured the waist (see photo 2) and it corresponds to a size 44" jeans. And now the store is accusing me of having worn the jacket and refusing to process my return, sent the jacket back to me, and refuses to answer my calls or emails. I spent a year dealing with these clowns. They are negligent and have no clue what they are doing. They got the measurements wrong not once, but twice in row! And now because they don't want to have to pay for the jacket (presumably the manufacturer is not to blame so they would be stuck with the bill) they are looking for loopholes in their return policy to stick me with the bill despite the fact that this is clearly their fault. DO NOT BUY THINGS FROM THIS STORE - THEY HAVE TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE, AND HAVE NO CLUE WHAT THEY ARE DOING

It's about time that a place with a little edge came to Redondo. Ms.Five nand Dime is an EXTREMELY…read morereasonably priced boutique which sells awesome clothing for both genders. (mrsfiveclothing.com) The style is hip-hop/rockabilly/cholo/skater/punk with a bit of 80s glam thrown in. The clothing for males is on the more edgy side--my boyfriend bought a black shirt with "California Love" scrawled on it in graf lettering, and I bought a dainty skeleton ring, some blinged out earrings, and two cute tops--one with graf lettering that said "Make-up junkie" with a graphic of two lipsticks, and one with a sexy chola on it. The tops were fun and flattering, yet still loose in the right areas, so they'd look good on any body type. I think it's great how the owner, Tiffany, considered that all women aren't teeny-tiny and really designed for everyone. had to stop myself before I went crazy buying some tiny rhinestone grenade earrings. Lastly, everything there is limited edition, so snap it up quick if you like it. The owner, Tiffany is a very lovely and down-to-earth person. You can tell that she really cares about her customers. I plan on going back every few weeks to this super-cool store. I hope it's around for a long time.
