BEVERLY HILLS. One of Greater LA's premier retail destinations, Beverly Center boasts a level of shopping not normally associated with urban mega-malls. The 160+ name-brand shops include the likes of Hugo Boss and French Connection UK, while anchor stores like Macy's and Bloomingdale's insure that you'll find just about anything you require. Truly a local landmark, the mall spans several blocks in the middle of West Hollywood and boasts the LA area's only California Welcome Center. It also features a 13-screen movie theater.

SANTA MONICA. Thanks to more than 150 high-end shops, fashionable Montana Avenue is a veritable shopper's dream. Small, privately owned boutiques and famous clothiers checker the tree-lined strip. Spend an afternoon perusing the likes of Three Bags Full, A.B.S. for Women, and Weathervane for Men. Afterwards, replenish your depleted energy over coffee and a pastry at one of the area's many sidewalk cafés.

WEST HOLLYWOOD. A little less congested than Melrose (its high-profile neighbor to the east), Robertson Boulevard gives no ground when it comes to things trendy. Between Beverly Boulevard and Third Street, this collection of stores and galleries includes the hip likes of Madison, Curve, Lisa Kline, and Nanette Lepore. In addition (and perhaps not as well known), antique hounds find much to their liking at places like the Collection, Indigo Seas, Japanache, and Gazebo Antiques. Celebrity sightings are common.

In addition to brand-name boutiques, the area also boasts several small shopping centers (like Rodeo Collection at 421 Rodeo) and department stores like Neiman Marcus and Saks.
