french toast

when isabel marant disclosed her plans to open an LA boutique last year, it was safe to say i was more than thrilled.  her namesake soho, NYC outpost has been my go-to destination for the past few years, if just to fondle her signature suede sneaks and bohemian-i-just-got-back-from-casablanca blouses.

enter her first LA outpost.  with a swoon-worthy cacti garden to rival that of the huntington gardens and an airy contemporary wood paneled interior complete with leather butterfly chairs and moroccan rugs, one would expect nothing less from the woman responsible for changing the face of cool.

8454 Melrose Place, Los Angeles, CA
