New Store: Dola Newsstand
Los Angeles

1423 Abbot Kinney Boulevard
Venice, CA 90291

081908-dola.jpgSometimes we just need to sit down and read a magazine. It's soothing, inspiring and a quick way to get some downtime in a busy schedule. So we're pretty excited about the newsstand that's just opened near us with a pretty patio and a selection of popular and hard-to-find magazines and newspapers:

 
 

081908_dola2.jpgIt's called Dola and it just opened on Abbot Kinney. Tucked into a magical vine covered courtyard next to the new French 50s and 60s (more on that later this week) it's got chairs and tables set up to peruse your new reading material. And when we say they have a great selection, we really mean it. They literally have hundreds of different magazines and newspapers including things like Vogue India! Plus if there's something you'd like them to carry and don't see it there, just let them know, they'll put it on their list and keep it in stock.

So grab a cup of coffee from Abbot's Habit, just a couple of doors down, and then plop yourself down with a great magazine and spend an hour escaping.

Or you can make a day of it by stopping by our favorite Abbot Kinney Stores.
