Celebrity Stylist Rachel Zoe's Guide To Los Angeles

rachel-zoe-my-la-los-angeles-hot-spots-site

She's responsible for some of the most memorable celebrity fashion moments (Cameron Diaz in pink Chanel, and Anne Hathaway in glittering Armani Privé) and some of our favorite hyperbolic slang (we die!), and one of our fave daily newsletters, so we can barely wait to catch the season two premiere of The Rachel Zoe Project tomorrow on Bravo. Of course, the ep will be filled with the requisite crazytime schedule, boot cut jeans, and fur vests, but what you won't see is where Rachel hangs when the cameras aren't rolling. And since this L.A. lady has the skinny on the best new art gallery in town, and where to go when you desperately need a tress trim, we are beyond thrilled to share this Boho babe's five fave local haunts. Whether it's a Robertson boutique that's stocked with her favorite fashionable finds, or a members-only club for a supper among the stars, we've got all the Rachel-approved L.A. resources that are, in the words of our subject du jour, literally beyond.
