shopping report: Boxing Day in Santa Monica

With Severo, our intrepid guide (and shopper extraordinaire),
we braved the Santa Monica Place and the Promenade

It was a lovely sunny soCal day as this gal clearly shows

We started our bargain safari at Old Navy. I must confess, this was my first time in there. (The TV ads are so repellently tacky I have never bothered). I was pleasantly surprised - the deal of the day was the 2-pack of knit gloves for 62¢ (marked down from $2.50). That comes out to

15.5¢ per glove!

While we waited on line (which moved surprisingly quickly)

Severo found this "Guitar Shirt"
I think you play it?

OK, enough of that.

The kool kids were out

shopping in Urban Outfitters

taking their new Christmas sweaters for a spin

hanging out in funny hats

or busking on the Promenade,
the Christopher Brothers rock out

We eschewed the mayhem of the Apple Store

For the relative quiet of Santa Monica Place
(the velvet rope to nowhere)

We saw pretzel couture outside Rockenwagner

Those pretzels made us hungry. (kidding)
Read the details of our lunch at BP Oysterette over on my Glutton blog [soon].
