I've always been jealous of San Franciscans - they get all the good restaurants and public transportation that my dear old Angeles lacks. But we will not be without a cheap clothes Mecca any longer. H&M (the IKEA for clothes) brings cheap/chic aesthetic to Pasadena. You may have seen the store building up at 64 Colorado Blvd. in pretty and urbane Old Pasadena. According to Day to Day, H&M will open its doors next week. In the following months lookout out for a Hollywood & Highland location as well as Glendale and Santa Monica. The trendy-affordable-euro wear only available one place on the west coast? Please.
