It was pretty cool! At first all I saw was a bunch of fabric stores, and while I know how to sew the basics, I wanted the cheap clothes and bags everyone talks about!! After walking a few blocks, I found what I was looking for! Clothes and costume jewelry and beads and handbags OH MY!!!
The fashion district is HUGE! It is split up into the following sections:
Women's Wear
Men's Wear
Athletic Wear
Kid's Wear
Accessories
Textiles
Flowers
Houseware's

So pretty much anything you could want is down there, but you do have to shop for the deals.
And you have to pay attention to quality. There was a lot of junk down there. I found one clothing store where everything was $2!!! But it was all pretty much crap.
I would suggest buying handbags down in the L.A fashion district. The bags that were sold down there were bags that you can buy at the mall but $10-$20 cheaper.
When you go down there, expect to pay at least $5 for parking. More if you park in a prime spot. Have on good walking shoes because you will be walking many many many blocks! Keep your purse close too because there are a lot of people walking by you, and carry cash, because a lot of places only take cash.
Also, don't forget, the Los Angeles Fashion District is open:
Monday - Sunday, from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
And if you are an Artsy/Craftsy person, there is so much for you there! There are lots of bead and crystal stores for making jewelry, and tons of fabric stores!
If you decide to take a trip to the L.A Fashion District, HAVE FUN!! Check out the website and make sure to visit Santee Alley. You will feel like you are totally in another place!
And I would love to hear your comments if you have been to the Fashion District! What did you like/ dislike? What were your favorite stores?
