WALKN' IN L.A.

In a city built for cars some of the everyday beauty can go unseen as you speed by at 50mph down Melrose or La Brea. Yesterday, while taking advantage of a beautiful 80 degree day shopping the L.A. area, Nathan and I decided to take a walk to kill some time and see what we could find. With new hip boutiques and vintage shops sprouting up all the time we took the opportunity to park the car (which resulted in running out of time at the meter and getting a $25 parking ticket) outside of American Rag and see L.A. at street level. Now we only walked for about 3 blocks, but I found the street littered with art and inspiration. It just got me thinking, this is just the tip of the iceberg and I wonder how much of this stuff goes unnoticed everyday.
