The Westside of LA is home to that most famous of shopping streets Rodeo Dr (http://www.laavenue.com/rodeo) pronounced ro-DAY-o, it is home to a who's-who of high end shops and exclusive retailers. Alternately there are major retail centers located in Santa Monica on the "Third Street Promenade" (http://www.downtownsm.com/), in Century City at the Westfield shopping center (http://westfield.com/cent...), and for a more local and honest feel in downtown Culver City (http://www.downtownculver...). For one-of-a-kind designer clothing and accessories there is no place like Abott Kinney in Venice (http://www.venicebeach.co...). With its artist collection of hand-made jewelry, natural fiber clothing and wearable art, shopping here is not only fun but also an adventure.
