If there's one thing stylists know how to do, it's find the coolest, oddest things from stores that you would never think to visit. From Paris to San Fran, here are Julia's favorite shops to hit up.
Vintage and Thrift Store · Rochechouart · 5 tips and reviews
Lucky Magazine: "These French thrift stores are hidden all over the city. You have to be willing to shuffle and dig through racks and piles of moth-eaten pieces, but that’s what's fun about it." -Julia Chu
121 W Badillo St (btwn N 3rd Ave & S Citrus Ave), Covina, CA
Antique Store · 1 tip
Lucky Magazine: "I’ve been shopping here since high school. This is one of those stores so far out in the suburbs, away from freeways, that you’d only know it existed if you actually lived close by." -Julia Chu
Lucky Magazine: "Their milk ice slushes with honey boba and taro pudding are like taking a vacation in Taipei. Who needs to go shopping when you can just grab a large cup and sit outside on the grass?" -Julia Chu
Miscellaneous Store · Lower East Side · 10 tips and reviews
Lucky Magazine: "I love well-curated stores that are minimal and straightforward in design, and that carry pieces that feel intimate and quirky—stores that I wish I'd opened myself." -Julia Chu
