Are you looking for some home decor inspiration or perhaps you are the next HGTV design star and you are looking for that one piece that will complete your room. You will most assuredly be heading to South Coast Collection or SOCO as it is called. This shopping destination is a mecca for those that love fashion, design, decor, and dining options that leave your mouth watering. It’s more than just the 70 shops at SOCO though, there is also The OC Mix which is a “mall within a mall”. Located in the heart of SOCO The OC Mix is a collection of locally owned boutiques and speciality food shops that include a craft liquor store.
It is easier to show you what you can expect when you visit South Coast Collection. Check out this video tour.
SOCO – some of the highlights at SOCO for me include the ST Patisserie and School and Taco Maria. A French bakery and Mexican inspired restaurant bring a taste of Paris and Mexico to Costa Mesa.
If I lived in Orange County you couldn’t keep me away from Pirch. It is a home renovators dream come true. Bathrooms and kitchens fit for lifestyles of the rich and famous! One can only dream, or window shop at Pirch.
The OC Mix – Like a pearl in the heart of an Oyster The OC Mix is a jewel of local boutiques. These small independent local artisans showcase everything from fashion, jewellery, speciality coffees and my favourite a cheese shop!
There are lots to see and shop at SOCO and The OC Mix. I highly recommend you stop by and spend an afternoon exploring it. You may come away with some design inspiration, a few Macaroons and a new trendy outfit. Happy shopping and don’t forget to book a dinner reservation at one of the restaurants on site.
