An insatiable craving for Asian eats isn’t the only yearning that gets hipsters through the dragon gates. Chinatown is a constantly expanding fashion/art community featuring some of the city’s most diverse and interesting shopping. Pop-up stores with rotating fresh talents and highly curated concept boutiques all in a neighborhood with firecracker vendors, a wishing well, and the best dim sum to ever hit a pair of chop sticks.

● Choose Chinatown - A whole lot of Swedish pride hidden in Chinatown. This extensive collection of Scandinavian line Cheap Monday makes us happy every day of the week.
● Flock Shop - Risky business fashion for hipsters looking to be noticed, remembered, and coveted while hitting the scene.

● Choose Chinatown (Downtown) - Past the dragon gateway and all Swedish Cheap Monday all the time.

Cheap Monday, the Swedish brand that’s become a household name in the states thanks to their skull-and-cross-bones-adorned skinny jeans that retail everywhere from Urban Outfitters to Barneys, is launching a pop-up shop on the west coast. Housed within LA boutique Choose Chinatown, the wares in question are called WKND, the SS09 capsule collection from Cheap Monday. The head-to-toe looks, designed by Peter Jansson, are inspired by “natural disasters including typhoons, flooding and earthquakes,” says the Los Angeles Times.
