Pok-a-Dots got its start in 1984 selling vintage clothing. But this family-owned business had a knack for finding creative costumes that kept customers coming back every Halloween. Over time, their costumes eclipsed their vintage threads until they were counted among the various quality Halloween costume shops in the Greater Los Angeles area. They leaned into their strengths, providing costumes for rental or purchase that satisfy virtually any price point. Supported by their comprehensive selection of make-up and accessories, Pok-a-Dots is the go-to costume spot if you’re out in the Arcadia direction!

If you’re serious about Halloween, then Valentinos Costume Group may be more your speed than the other Halloween costume shops on our list. An official Union signatory costume house, their period-specific apparel has appeared in a number of film, television, and theatrical productions. But due to the complexity of their costumes, Valentinos deals almost exclusively in rentals.

Easily one of the most recognizable Halloween costume shops in Hollywood, the aptly named Hollywood Toys & Costumes can be found right along the world-famous Walk of Fame. It opened its doors in 1950, making it one of the city’s longest-running costume shops as well! Needless to say, it’s stacked up a multitude of awards and accolades over the years. Their selection of costumes, masks, wigs, accessories, cosmetics, and more make it worth battling through the ever-present cloud of tourists. As a bonus, Hollywood Toys & Costumes absorbed much of the inventory and staff of the Hollywood Magic Shop when it closed in 2010. So, if you’re looking to put a little bit of abracadabra into your apparel, this is the place.

Exploring the Steel Sentinels of Galleta Meadows

  Featured image credit: Matthew Dillon Just two hours south of Palm Springs, you’ll find a desert preserve where history loses all meaning while resonating with unusual profundity. Grizzled prospectors eternally sift through the running waters of imagined streams, prehistoric sloths lumber across arid sands, and mythical serpents swim beneath rivers of asphalt. If it sounds like magic, it may be. But it’s a magic you can touch, forged from hot metal saturated with a color at once rusty and romantic. It’s a sprawling desert wonderland known as Galleta Meadows, bringing additional life to Anza Borrego State Park. Defying reason and reality itself, it still most certainly exists.  Dennis Avery’s Dream for Anza Borrego State Park Photo credit: GB11111 The late Dennis Avery, former heir to the Avery Labels fortune, harbored a creativity that betrayed his office supply foundation.

Through this fad, new life was etched into the very walls of a formerly non-descript four-story building that remains standing today at 217 West 6th Street. While the fragrance of melted chocolate blew away decades ago, the elaborate tiles characterizing the chocolate shop Los Angeles insiders celebrate are still there. You just need to know the right person to catch a glimpse. Today, we look at the briefly sweet history of Downtown LA’s Dutch Chocolate Shoppe.  A Downtown LA Chocolate Shop with Character Photo credit: Omgivning The building that houses the remains of the Dutch Chocolate Shoppe was originally constructed in 1898 by one Gerhard Eshman based on designs by noted architecture firm Morgan and Walls.
