If you ever wander around Downtown LA, you should stop by SixHundredLA, one of my favorite fashion boutiques. Located at the heart of downtown LA on Spring Street between 6th and 7th streets, SixHundredLA is one of the most popular spots in addition to LA café, Exchange LA, and Hive Gallery. Today I’m going to present you a series of unique designs from the store and the reasons why you should go there NOW!
Now let’s unveil the unique pieces! From left to right and top to bottom, which one is your favorite?
Vintage ankle high beige moccasin boots are classic yet fashionable. Going to a masquerade party, how about try the floral chain headband and the white mask (by FREE SPIRIT). Are you one of those bohemian fans, then you should check out these Boho Babes’ must have— White Long Bohemian Feather Earrings (by Free SPIRIT)? As soon as I put on this Monster dress (by FELT UP), it reminded me of the song (Oh…) Girls just wanna have fun! The latest fashionable floral pearl sunglasses (by BLINDFOLDS), even Gaga is a proud owner of this pair! Lastly, it’s me wearing the handmade red crochet silk scarves (by 6TOKENS) standing in front of the store.
So why should you shop at SixHundredLA?
Reason #1: SixHundredLA has the most cutting edge accessories in town, which will never disappoint you. Since I don’t have my ears pierced, I can only wear clip-on earrings. The first time I stumbled into SixHundred LA back in 2009, I found a piece of earing that I’ve always dreamt of for years: the stylish ear cuff (by LOVEMADE x HAN CHOLO). Not only does the piece not require me to have my ears pierced, but also the design is so amazing that I can’t help but buy it. I was so impressed by that masterpiece that even 2 years later I’m still excited about it!
Reason #2: I love SixHundredLA also because it is a big local business supporter. SixHundredLA sustains the community by selling fashion pieces and accessories ONLY from local LA designers. As an individual who lives in downtown LA, I am super supportive of this approach. Think globally, but act locally.
Reason #3: SixHundredLA carries lots of good quality vintage clothing and vintage sunglasses that you won’t be able to find anywhere else. Instead of driving all the way to Melrose, I now can wander in downtown LA without driving and just walk to the nearby vintage store. Yay!
Tips:
Every second Thursday at the Downtown LA Artwalk, SixHundredLA will have DJ Higher spin, which will attract a lot of people stopping by and dancing in front of the store. Suffice it to say, SixHundredLA is one of the coolest hang out spots at the Downtown LA Artwalk. Also, don’t forget to say hello to “Six”, the super adorable little puppy who’s named after the store.
