Los Angeles's close association to the rich and famous has long made it a major shopping destination, but in recent years the city has grown beyond just a locale for luxe clothing and accessories—although high-end goods will always be a cornerstone of L.A.'s retail scene. With a wealth of stellar vintage spots, purveyors of affordable on-the-pulse products, and an ever-growing number shops selling local, artisanal goods, there is truly something for every type of spender here.
No matter what it is you're shopping for, L.A.'s consistently sunny and warm weather also means you can often hunt for wares in the open air, whether it be at a flea market full of hidden treasures, or a street lined with boutiques to explore. As you stroll, good eateries are never too far away, and you can always find somewhere delicious to dine and covertly star-watch.
If in fact you are in the celebrity-studded city to catch a glimpse of a famous face or two, you may want to start at their mecca, Beverly Hills, where a bevy of major designers' outposts and impeccably curated stores cater to upcale clientele.
After getting your fix there, you can hop into your car and absorb the city’s other varied offerings, including down-and-dirty bargains in Downtown, dozens of well-designed boutiques lining Venice's famed Abbot Kinney Boulevard, or mint-condition vintage fashions in Los Feliz.
For nearly four decades, the wardrobe departments of movie and TV studios and production companies have been shipping clothes and props here daily. Besides scoring occasional gems from designers like Georgio Armani, Versace, Chanel, and more for between 35% and 95% off retail price, insiders flock here to get their hands on a piece of history. Good news for the serious collectors: your purchase includes the title and code from the production it was used on, so you can properly place each piece of memorabilia.

Melrose Avenue might be Los Angeles’s most well-known vintage shopping destination, but to many locals, especially those on the Eastside, Burbank’s Magnolia Park is, in many ways, better. Spanning several blocks around Magnolia Avenue, this revitalized area blends vintage, thrift, and antiques shopping opportunities with the laid-back small-town vibe that Melrose lacks. Great dining spots and modern coffee shops abound, as well as foot and nail spas for a bit of pampering.
W. Magnolia Blvd., between N. Niagara and N. Avon St., Los Angeles, California, 91506, USA
Productions including Mad Men, Austin Powers, and Catch Me If You Can (among many, many others) have turned to this vintage shop for mint-condition pieces from the 1930s through the 1980s. Ladies who love the pinup look will adore the selection of curve-hugging pencil skirts, cardigans, and lingerie, while men will have their pick of Hawaiian shirts, suits, and skinny ties. The time-warped interior also features decorative home accents and furniture from decades past.
