A QUICK TRIP TO LOS ANGELES
My three-day trip to LA through photos.
It’s been about a decade since I last took a trip to LA, so booking this trip was super special to me. My best friend and I decided to head to the city of dreams for three days prior to our journey to Indio for Coachella, so we planned to stay at one of the swankiest places downtown – The Standard Hotel (where they have the best view of the city on their infamous roof top). Our plans consisted of eating our way through the city while stopping by the beautiful beaches, coolest shops and raddest parts of town like Beverly Hills, Santa Monica and Melrose.
A deluxe mainstay in the heart of downtown LA, the Standard is where all the cool kids spend relaxing days by the pool or at the rooftop bar for a nightcap. It offers the best view of Los Angeles, overlooking towering skyscrapers and clear views of the bright-lit city.
