SHOPPING IN THE OC

   Orange County is a shopper’s dream with an oasis of shopping options, including luxury shopping at South Coast Plaza and Fashion Island, outlet shopping and more. Each are filled with an assortment of unique and trendy fashions from the latest in haute couture to casual surf wear. Fashion aside, OC is also home to retailers offering a veritable selection of antiques, housewares, sporting gear and just about anything under the sun. Several locations offer shuttle service from the Anaheim Resort area.   For shopping that’s off the beaten path, leave the malls for another day and hit some of OC’s unique neighborhoods. The historical center of commerce for Anaheim at the turn of the century, Center Street Promenade in Downtown Anaheim has gone through a modern revival with quaintly curated shops, artisan-inspired eateries and other neighborly services. Old Towne Orange is famous for it’s one-of-a-kind antique treasures. If vintage finds are what you’re after, head to Downtown Fullerton, home to acclaimed vintage clothing and furniture retailers. For the hipster or eco-fiend in you, The Lab Anti-Mall and The Camp in Costa Mesa are great spots to pick up of-the-moment fashions and earth-friendly finds.
