Stores, Malls or Markets in Santa Monica

What a great experience! I was making another trip of many to 3rd St Promenade when I decided to go for a walk just a few streets away along Wilshire Blvd. I happened to stumble on Great Labels for less. The bargain rack oustide drew me in. Outside were casual, fashionable designer label shirts and skirts. Some labels one can expect to see include Armani, Chloe, Nine West, Calvin Klein....really almost any one that comes to mind. Trendy dressed women turn in their undesireables here for fashion savvy bargain hunters to grab.

Overall, the apparel is second hand, almost like new. There are even used shoes. It is hard to find a good pair though without getting on the knees and looking inside the small boxes they are in. Thus, the search of the right shoes becomes like a scavenger hunt. The size range is about 2-12, with a good variety of choices in the 6-8 range.

What to buy: casual tops including sheer and silky blouses and semi-formal/formal dresses are particular hot here!!

What to pay: Whatever you can manage to spend is fine. You can spend as little as 5 dollars for a nice top or bottom by selcting something on the clearance/sale rack. The pricier used items can still range in the hundreds.

What is there to say?! I held back and did not buy any chocolate (because of the low carb diet I'm on) but it all looked amazing. Located at Santa Monica Place on the upper level.
