Grand Central Market

I wore this simple outfit to grab dinner at Los Angeles’ Grand Central Market.

I love a cashmere tee, especially in a warmer place like LA. It keeps you cozy without overheating!

I paired it with these barrel leg white jeans to balance out the proportions, and slipped on some comfy Mahabis flats because I knew we’d be walking a bit.

Visit the Market

The indoor market is a unique food court with a mix of all different types of cuisines! There’s everything from ramen to pasta, donuts to ice cream.

Downstairs, there’s also a small market of vendors selling jewelry, clothes and knick-knacks! It’s a fun spot to check out, especially if you visit the downtown LA neighborhood.

We ended up grabbing Thai food and it was so good!

Planning a Trip to California- Travel Checklist

Flights | California has two main hubs – San Francisco International Airport (SFO) in the north, and Los Angeles International (LAX) in the south.

From New York City, we flew nonstop on United for about $500. Set a fare alert and browse airfare for your dates here.

See + Do | My favorite experience was road tripping the Pacific Coast Highway, one of the most scenic coastal drives in the United States. It’s a great way to see San Francisco, Los Angeles and a number of quaint coastal towns in one trip.

For more on what to see, do and eat on a classic California road trip, check out our PCH itinerary post.

Accommodation | California has a great range of options, from luxury hotels to family friendly vacation rentals. Accommodation is very expensive, so book in advance to save. Check here for current hotel deals.

If you have a group of people or want more affordable housing browse VRBO.

Insurance | Lastly, be sure to visit California with travel insurance. Whether your flight is delayed, you get injured and need to be hospitalized, or your phone gets stolen, travel insurance will help when you need it most! Get a quote for your trip here.
