LA finds...

Los Angeles has seen some very exciting openings recently. 
Côte, a charming nail salon moved in just over a month ago;  Violet Grey opened it's boudoir in early April, and The Row debuted its first retail space just two weeks ago!

 Brentwood  



California beach meets the South of France at this eco-friendly beauty boutique.  Manicure and pedicure services are offered on their covered outdoor patio (above), or inside the airy, beach themed shop.  All polishes are "five-free", meaning free of formaldehyde, dibutyl phthalate, toluene, camphor and formaldehyde resin.  While your nails dry, shop the shelves filled with locally designed fashion items, candles, beach totes and home accessories.     


Violet Grey
Melrose Place


Tucked away on an ivy filled alley along Melrose Place is Violet Grey.  The flagship store of industry approved beauty ecommerce site, of the same name, is stocked with beautiful beauty products, signature Le Labo candles, art deco furnishings and vintage images of 'the glamour of Hollywood'.  


The Row
Melrose Place


The first retail space for the minimalist luxury brand, is serene, welcoming, and everything is for sale.  The beautiful clothes mingle perfectly with furniture from JF Chen, Galerie Half and Thomas Hayes, Manolo Blahnik shoes, Sidney Garber jewelry and a selection of vintage jewelry and objects.  The designer twins describe the space as a 'home', certainly one that I would like to live in!


La Brea


NK Shop is not new to LA, but new to me.  This retail space is the vision of interior designers Todd Nickey and Amy Kehoe.  Home to a mix of vintage items, japanese glassware, and private label furniture it is a must visit.

PS - if you missed the GOOP pop-up shop at the Brentwood Country Mart last month, the giant stripe jute totes are available in store!
