Reminds me very much of Newtown in Sydney

I adore the first girl in post #20. She looks very sweet, not too overdone. And her necklace is killer.

And also that redheaded gal has one of the most gorgeous tattoos I've ever seen.

I know-- I wanted to take her picture because I've never seen anyone with a fashion illustration-like tattoo before. I heart the valley- mostly the thriftstores...and of course my favorite 80's movie VALLEYGIRL.

Orchide i really love this thread! i would be so happy to see more photos.

and i wanted to ask where you got your bag in the 1st photo in the thread? it is lovely.

also- why is it that it is the east side in so many cities that are the funky part? ny, l.a., um vancouver! where i am presently at. ya well just an odd observation.

I got it at Showpony- its a handmade one-of-a kind by a local designer thanks for asking and the nice words SwanDiamond!

Here are some local gals from an Echo Park neighborhood party and various other ones:

What a great thread Orchide, thanks for starting this!!
Thanks for the pictures too daisies!

I hardly ever see such fun style whenever I head up to LA, but then again I
don't go to the east side often...the pictures here just make me wanna head out there!

I guess i didn't think about it when I was posting but yes not everyone in LA is heavily tanned or getting spray-on Mystics
Plenty of pale to be found here

I went to a party tonight in Echo Park:

That redhead in post #41 is so pretty!!

The last picture in post #42 (girl w. dog) reminds me so much of a Heather Nova song: Virus of the Mind

well I went to this party thing last night
a lot of people I hadn't seen in a long long time
and they wanted to know about my life.
but making me feel like it wasn't quit right
like where's your kids and where's your car?
I said I don't have either but I have a guitar
and I ended up feeling like I was a freak
so I found some wine and something to eat
and I talked to the dog to pass the time
told myself I'm doing fine

It's just a virus of the mind
