| Need a Brazilian bikini wax in Los Angeles? This Ventura Blvd. boutique in Sherman Oaks is the place to go. The feminine, chick-friendly vibe will set even first-time waxers at ease. Go au naturel (the Brazilian wax), coy (the Playboy), or somewhere in between. Metered parking on the street and a public lot around the block. |

| The American Girl Store isn’t just a place to get a doppelganger Just Like You doll and all of the associated accoutrements, it’s a destination, an event all on its own. Taking up (how many square feet), the store has a café where you can have tea, a theater to watch a live musical, a doll hospital and beauty salon, plus rooms full of dolls and books. The store is also located at The Grove, an upscale outdoor mall adjacent to the Los Angeles Farmer’s Market. Translation: fun for kids, but a stone’s throw from great eateries (The Farm, Cheesecake Factory, Maggiano’s), a luxe movie theater, and fabulous shopping for moms and dads (Nordstrom, Barney’s Co-op, Crate & Barrel). | American Girl L.A.
