Burro

Situated along a string of small businesses on Abbot Kinney, Burro is just as idyllic as its charming neighborhood. Established in 2014, this airy showroom is a haven of swoon-worthy gifts, one-of-a-kind trinkets, and eccentric accessories.

           

Step into Burro and there’s no mistaking that you’re in the heart of Los Angeles. The no-frills interior of exposed concrete floors, bright and cheery lighting, and minimalistic shelving expertly showcases the colorful array of bits and bobs that can be found here. From the sun-drenched sales floor to the laid-back shop girls, everything about this place is what you'd expect from California.

Burro’s claim to fame is their selection of stunning stationery and whimsical wares. Whether you’re browsing for yourself or scrambling to throw together the perfect gift for a friend, you’ll probably leave with more than what you came looking. A vegan cookbook and Turkish cotton tea cloth are bound to please the epicurist in your life, while a strappy sports bra and essential oil diffuser will make any of your yogi friends jump for joy.

Not only is Burro one of the last independently owned locales on Abbot Kinney, but their prices are more affordable than many of the neighboring boutiques. Pick up a pair of dino stud earrings for $38, lavender scented bath bomb for $11, or check out their range of adorable $5 greeting cards covering every occasion from birthdays to anniversaries to “let's just stay in and order takeout.” Small price tags and support small businesses? Yes please!
