L.A. Photo Journal Part II: Shopping.

The second part of my Los Angeles trip photo journal is dedicated to shopping. Believe everything your hear about L.A. being a great place to do shopping. It really is. The malls are huge, with fantastic stores and great visual appeal. One of my favourites was THE GROVE, located near Beverly Boulevard: it's completely outdoors, it has giant pinwheels, a pond, an international market with cuisine from all over the world and a train. CHOO CHOO!

My other favourite place to shop and favourite in general was SUNSET BOULEVARD. My, my, it's beautiful like no other place I saw in L.A.; it looks like a fairytale villa mixed with a really nice artistic area. The H&M there was the best, I bought incredibly cool things that I only found there and they had the most amazing sale: Every reduced item has an extra 50% OFF, I have $4 jeans now, and everything was in perfect state and organized. I guess it helps when the headquarters are next door. 

If I had to choose a place to live in L.A. it would definitely be Sunset Boulevard. There are cafés and outdoors restaurants everywhere, the houses look amazing and you have a great view, no matter where you're standing. Even the bus stops look great. I MEAN...

// La segunda parte de mi bitácora de fotos en Los Angeles está dedicada a ir de compras. Crean todo lo que les dicen de L.A. sobre ser un gran lugar para comprar. Realmente lo es. Los centros comerciales son enormes, con tiendas fantásticas y visualmente bien padres. Uno de mis favoritos fue THE GROVE (significa ARBOLEDA), localizado cerca de Beverly Boulevard: está al aire libre, tiene un lago, rehiletes gigantes, un mercado de comida internacional y un tren. CHUUUU.

Mi otro lugar favorito para comprar y, favorito en general, fue SUNSET BOULEVARD. ¡Dios! Es bonito como ningún otro lugar que vi en L.A.; parece una villa sacada de cuento mezclada con un área artística muy fancy. El H&M de ahí fue el mejor, compré cosas súper buenas que sólo vi ahí y tenían la mejor rebaja del mundo: 50% de descuento a lo ya rebajado. Tengo jeans de cuatro dólares ahora, y todo estaba en perfecto estado y organizado. Supongo que ayuda tener los cuarteles generales al lado.

Si tuviera que elegir un lugar de Los Ángeles para vivir, definitivamente sería Sunset Boulevard. Hay cafés y restaurantes al aire libre por doquier, las casas son preciosas y tienes una gran vista, sin importar dónde estés parado. Hasta las paradas de autobús se ven bien. O SEA...
The Grove's very own pond.
Even the guy at checkout was incredibly nice, his name was Jürgen, so hi Jürgen!
The H&M U.S. headquarters are in that white building. 
If you're ever in L.A. find a Porto's, they have the best lemonade and cuban sandwiches ever.
And again, "reflection me" makes an appearance.
There will be one last part coming soon. Thanks for reading and 
enjoy the pure sales if you're ever in Los Angeles.

Love always, Hen.
