Near Fairfax High? Go #antiquing @ Melrose Trading Post on Sun 4 one-of-a-kind finds
Most of the the vendors overcharge for cheap reprints. The same goes for "vintage" furniture; they never know the type of wood & it's faux antiquing
Some awesome antiques. Some more food vendors should start coming here. Enjoy.
Great building and architecture but to see antique italian art, go to Italy, not worthy to spend time here
If you're not super into antiquities, stick to the Getty Museum - the traffic to and fro is not worth the trip.
Housed in a Moorish-influenced building from 1927, the boutique Palihouse Santa Monica opened in 2013, offering a medley of design styles. Think old portraits, antique furniture and cosy Chesterfields Read more.
The 38-room building’s Moorish-influenced Mediterranean Revival architecture is livened up by a thoughtful mishmash of antiques, art, taxidermy, patterned textiles and off-the-wall wallpaper. Read more.
Great spot. Try this for a calm, long-sterm stay.
Great airport! The area is surrounded by several very nice amenities, i.e. dog park, soccer fields, out buildings that host acting classes, farmer's markets and antique markets, a plane museum, etc..
There is a great kids park here with great, clean beach sand.
If you spot the Civil Air Patrol on the runway, ask them if you can peek inside their C-182. They train cadets and love to show kids around if time allows.
This work of art featuring 202 restored cast iron antique street lamps is a great place to take a date. It is usually easy to find street parking at night in the area.
A wonderful example of public art on display—it promotes physical interaction between the public and the assemblage sculpture.
A must-see when you're in LA.
This spot is cozy and welcoming, with unique midcentury modern and antique touches all around. Their monthly set tasting menu is based off a singular seasonal ingredient. Read more.
Most amazing meal in LA. Fantastic service. Creative menu. Killer wine pairing. The only way to go wrong is to NOT go!
If you're intimate with your date, and one of you is driving, split a wine pairing. It amounts to about two glasses of wine per person.
Huge flea market with a food area. Love the variety of knick knacks. $3 entrance fee for a good cause at least.
Great for vintage furniture, all sorts of home decor and vinyl

@shopLAcity on Abbot Kinney Blvd in Venice 4 antiques & vintage finds
Don't forget to get down to the brig and try some of the food trucks. Good food for little cash.
GQ magazine once called Abbot Kinney Boulevard the coolest block in America. Great. But the coolest thing about the AKB is the monthly first Friday art extravaganzas. Enjoy.
Don't forget to check out the book section... and buy every one of the Dr. & Mr. DorisHaggis-on-Whey's series of books... Read more.
LA Weekly's Best of LA 2010 pick - Best One-Stop, Head-Scratching Shopping!
My favorite part : it is out of order. Comeback to yesterday.
Start with the chic vintage finds at The Way We Wore and then walk down La Brea to browse the antique shops.

See Chip on 2nd Floor rings. Best ever!!!!
Bring your piggy bank ... and you horse bank, cow bank, yak bank...
Breakfast anyone?
The Blueprint is one of the best burgers I've ever had, if not THE best. Just fantastic. Great bartenders too!
Southern Fry is one of the best chicken sandwiches I've ever had. Truffle Mushroom was fantastic as well. Prepare to pay extra for a side; these $14 burgers don't come with fries
Chicken sando. Get it.
Bacon and jalapeño Mac and cheese rocks. Go UCLA!
