Before we sat down to have a cup of coffee at Colada Shop, we were walking around some of the…read morestores on this strip of Mosaic District when Kimi was like, "We gotta go into this store, I think you guys will really love it." And I'm certainly not one to say no to shopping... and Kimi knows me pretty well - so in we went. In this adorable little shop you'll find a bit of everything: From chic baby toys and gear, to Women's athletica, adorable spice recipe kits, dog treats, jewelry, natural deodorant, candles and so much more that I'm forgetting. The store is immaculately designed. As soon as you walk in, you feel like you're in a higher end boutique - but it's also not stuffy at all like some places. It's just highly curated with interesting unique products, and could be the absolute best place for stocking stuffers, small gifts, making a gift basket and also obviously splurging on yourself. I ended up getting some natural dog treats for the pup, and I almost splurged on some fancy balsamic vinegar. This splurge was for the pup, the next time I come in the splurge will be for me lol. Definitely worth stopping in. If you're someone who LOVES getting little treats and surprises for your friends and family this could be the perfect spot. The mix is eclectic and Kimi pointed out that they even sell this soap that was gifted to us for Latinx heritage month as it's a Latin owned soap company. I feel like it's the apothecary David would open if he was a woman.

Everything they feature is ethically-sourced and sustainably obtained. AND OH so cute. I could spend forever smelling all the candles, delighting over the handmade jewelry, perusing their cookbooks, picnic blankets, baby rain boots and so much more. This is the perfect place to grab a special gift for a friend and reminds me of those cute, indie boutiques that are on every corner in LA. I hope this shop stays around for a long time.

They have everything from organic flour, rice, spices, oils to shampoo and conditioner, etc. There are glass jars you can also buy in the store. They do have some gifts and other natural products. You can be a Loyalty member if your purchase total $25+, after $250, you get an amount off. The employees are very helpful and kind.

I've been searching for citrine, pyrite, and rose quartz for like a month now. It's a totally new…read morewoo-woo thing for me. Basically, I want a bajillion dollars. I started searching online but didn't trust Etsy shops and I definitely didn't trust Amazon vibes for this. Today is a rainy Sunday so I thought to go out and check a local shop. I'm so glad we got to go today. I took my son with me who can talk all day about science, rocks, and minerals. Seriously, ALL DAY LONG. The shopkeeper was so patient and kind and entertained all his questions and engaged him in info and teaching. It was just so nice. I feel like it is a good place for kids. There was actually another kid in there while we were there. It's a really big store. If you're into yoga or anything "energy", you'll really enjoy it. Even if you're not into woo-woo, it's got cute greeting cards, music, candles, and tons of books. There is a whole room of aromatherapy and lotions. I was able to get citrine, pyrite, and rose quartz as bracelets, crystals, and geodes. Success! I also thought the prices were super reasonable. We'll definitely be back.

It is the place to go to for ANYTHING PERSONALIZED. They know literally everything there is to know about monogram etiquette and overall personalization (they will even tell you cool/ different places to monogram so you're not like everyone else). The store is beautiful - they have something for everyone. Guys - don't be discouraged by the name. There are gifts for men too - flasks, valets, things that will really be treasured.

If you buy both a pot and plant here, they'll even pot it for you so all you have to do it put it by the window and give it some light. This place definitely isn't the cheapest but their stuff is all top notch so it's worth checking out.

I recently took them to this shop to choose a treat and used it as a bargaining tool to get Korean bbq afterwards. We spent .. a LOT ... of time checking out every single aisle, and examining every single item so they could each choose a treat. My three-year old chose a little plastic pink bunny that holds (great quality) hair ties. My seven-year old chose My Melody washi tape. If I had no self control, I would have picked every single one of their pens, a Cinnamaroll claw clip, BTS pillow, and ALL the stickers. Luckily I looked at all the prices and stopped myself -- you can get a lot of the same things at Miniso for a better price these days. This is truly the place to get a hit of dopamine.
