Opening Ceremony
Those who crave original, fashion-forward clothing should head to this sprawling New York City-based retailer. Owners Humberto Leon and Carol Lim are L.A. natives who take great pains to bring in the latest and greatest (Katy Rodriguez, Jasmin Shokrian), which they mix with more familiar lines (Mayle, Proenza Schouler). Most genius: the section dedicated to British High Street label Topshop. And don't forget to check out the store's just-launched collection of unstructured, effortlessly cool dresses.

Sielian's Vintage Apparel
This vintage store remains under the radar, despite an inventory of insanely gorgeous dresses from the '50s, '60s, and '70s. Nothing looks at all dated; the thigh-grazing shifts seem thoroughly modern and so do the floor-sweeping sundresses. All the racks, categorized by color, are easy to browse. A bounty of shoes and bags are also on offer.
