Going to L.A!
 

Hi!

I hope you can excuse my crappy English.

Well, I’ll keep it short… Swedish woman going on vacation to L.A. Would like to get some tips on were to go shopping? Does anyone know of some nice place to get (cheap) gothic clothing/jewelry/shoes etc? I’ve never been there before, so I’d like to lurch around a bit before I get there. :)

Got any links/URL:s? Give them to me!

Thank you for helping!

I would just advise you not to go to L.A. in the first place.

This is actually a half hour South of L.A. but is worth it:
Stray Cat Vintage Clothing and Music

This is where I resupply my stock of round lens sunglasses for $8 (what Ozzy Osbourne wears and what John Lennon wore)

and is the only place I have found where you can get an original Christian Death Only Theatre of Pain on 33 and 1/3 vinyl. ($60)

Then down Harbor Blvd. a few blocks East and across the street:

This place is more expensive and has less music (only a fraction of the CDs and no vinyl LPs) but carries goth centric fashion where you can buy off the rack a
coat like this:
