For this year’s Gift Guide, we’re reflecting on the things that make Los Angeles the special place that we call home. Our highly curated gift ideas are all about showcasing L.A., whether they’re candles, books, pottery or hiking socks. We think we’ve found the perfect ways for you to tell your favorite people “Thank you,” “I love you” and “I’m so glad you’re in my life.” You’ll find gift ideas from our writers and contributors for Angelenos seeking adventure, respite or simply a way to celebrate L.A. hometown pride. We have gifts for those hungry for new hiking gear, gardening tools or the perfect snack. Below you’ll also find our our expanded gift shops list. And with that, we wish you and yours a marvelous season!
