Yay or Neigh

Neighborhood Opens

You’re such a great neighbor (respectable parties, highly evolved systems for garbage and recycling), sometimes you wish you could live next door to yourself.

Just like Urbanic Paper Boutique. The stationery shop shares a wall with its new clothing boutique, Neighborhood. Keeping with the modern, down-to-earth style, these folks want you to feel right at home.

The wooden fences on either side of the room are hung with unfussy everydaywear for men and women with a creative edge. Guys can geek out on graphic tees from Klovis while ladies get cozy in cotton dresses by Scrapbook. Both parties can partake in good-looking lines like FluffyCo, Supermaggie, and Industry.

And with onesies and tees for babies, they’ve got tiny neighbors covered, too.

The only drawback?

Good luck trying to borrow a cup of sugar.

Neighborhood, 1644 Abbot Kinney Boulevard, between Palms and Venice Boulevards, Venice (310-392-4596 or neighborhoodvenice.com).
