But, my +1 cannot resist this boutique and always takes home pieces that are destined to become favorites. She gets complements and the inevitable "where did you get that" inquiries. If you're visiting the LA area and looking for some women's clothing that has a distinctly "I picked this up in southern Cali" look, Ananda is your place!

My favorite clothing store on Abbot Kinney…read more Ananda is one of the first stops on our list when my friends and I are in the area. This small boutique specializes in female clothing, accessories, and fun knick knacks. I purchased my favorite corduroy pants here, as well as a few tops/dresses. I love that every item is unique and you won't find it copy/pasted across the Venice boardwalk. It's also a great place to search for the perfect gift. I found a dainty gemini necklace for one of my best friends and she's worn it non-stop for months. Highly recommend checking it out if you're in the area! While the items aren't cheap, they're definitely more affordable than the majority of Abbot Kinney shops.

I've taken a few girlfriends here, and they always have found something they like, be it a shirt, a…read morejacket, or a bauble. They move so much product that everything is always different, so it's fun to peruse. The staff won't pressure you to buy anything, but they will make recommendations and are sweet and helpful. I've also watched them expertly and respectfully handle some difficult customers. The prices aren't prohibitive, and everything is affordable, so that everyone can leave with a bit of Abbot Kinney fashion.

I really love their clothes and it's such an amazing brand but the one thing they need to really…read moreimprove on is their customer service online. I'm not sure if it's bc of Covid but they need to be on top of their emails. I've sent emails inquiring about returns and never received a response. Granted you do receive the refund back but they just don't reply to emails even if you have a question about sizing. They need to be stronger in this area especially during this time and all the time actually. Don't send them direct messages on IG either bc it will go unnoticed and unanswered. The best is to call (which I have) if you have any questions. However there are times when calling is not option but sending an email is. I hope they improve on this area of their customer service in the near future. Looking forward to visiting the store when it's safe to reopen.

This clothing store is toward the end of Abbot Kinney (closer to N. Venice Blvd) and is a small but…read moremighty shop. They have high end and unique sweaters, dresses, shoes, bags etc. There were two helpful and lovely sales associates working and they made sure to assist customers but also to offer realistic suggestions. I spotted an adorable romper in the back room by the dressing room which had not been swooped up from the summer clothing. It fits great and the purple colors will compliment my skin tone. My friend eyed a bag and seriously contemplated buying it but it was a splurge purchase at $ 325. Of course some spend this on eye cream but it really depends what your budget is. This shop is definitely more of a go in with a purpose or if you're looking for specific items. It isn't a run of the mill clothing store where things are messily thrown in big containers that double as the display cases. I would definitely go back again and was told that the owner has been recognized for her buying prowess for many years and they also have locations in Canada.

I came here on a Tuesday because I surprisingly haven't don't any shopping in LA even though I've…read morevisited LA an insane amount of times at this point. We stopped here because it seemed that they had a ton of great basics and fun pieces. We were further surprised by the quality materials and affordable prices! But what truly set this place apart was the staff. They were genuinely sweet and incredibly helpful, guiding us to pieces that perfectly matched our styles. One delightful employee, who confessed to being new, had a knack for persuasion that turned my sister and me into enthusiastic shoppers! Her recommendations were spot-on and made our experience feel personal and special. It's been ages since I've felt such a warm, welcoming vibe in a store. If you're in LA, don't miss this shopping haven! Trust me, your wardrobe will thank you!

I love this boutique. The denim is made local and fits me great (and denim is so hard for me to…read moreshop for!). I also love their italian linen shirts and soft sweaters. One of the stylists, Aurora, helped me so much with my shopping experience! She instantly knew the style of denim that fit me best and made suggestions to pair with cute tops and boots. She truly was a stylist, intuitively knew what worked well together for me, and didn't pressure me into any purchases. I will definitely come back :)

They went above and beyond to help, even calling over a second associate, and never even hinted at it being inconvenient. I'm so thankful for them. The store had some beautiful options and was so beautifully laid out with a summer selection of high quality dresses, shirts, etc. Can't wait to go back to actually shop.

Such a strange experience…read more The store is super cute! I had a few pieces I wanted to try on before buying online. I walked around the store for a few minutes, and then was strangely approached by one of the saleswoman saying "this is actually a showroom and you can't take anything off the racks" Ok... Then I asked if I could try a few pieces on. It felt like the saleswoman was trying to scare me away by saying I can, but there was a wait. As you can see in the picture, there is literally 0 other customers. I said the wait was fine and handed back the clothes I took off the rack. The lady then said "do you remember where you got your clothes?" At that point I was about to put the clothes back myself. I really love the design and style, but the vibe in store was super weird. I'll stick to buying online from now on.
