A shopper's guide to Sunset Boulevard's east side
The Sunset Strip may draw the crowds west at night, but the eastern end of Sunset -- the part that runs through Silver Lake and Echo Park -- is where the skinny-jeans crowd shops by day, earning the area favorable comparisons to hip Williamsburg area of Brooklyn and the Mission District of San Francisco. Indie-label fashion and vinyl records mix with Midcentury Modern furniture and crafty handmade goods by local artisans. You'll find lots of décor geared to small-space and earth-friendly living. Writer David A. Keeps sequenced his tour as a one-way journey from east to west, starting with a place that embodies the neighborhood's boho mix.

Shopper¿s guide to Sunset Boulevard( David A. Keeps )
The Warehouse LA is an industrial space painted in can't-be-ignored turquoise. Inside, it feels like a barn, staged with vintage clothing, furniture and accessories. The store repurposes glass vases and containers to create succulent terrariums ($16 to $42) and also offers classes for DIY container gardeners.
