The Ladies in Your Life will Love Everything from Etc. Etc!
Etc. Etc. is as charming as the tree-lined main street it’s located on! The purveyors of this shop fill the racks with coastal fashion that’s simultaneously chic and playful. Whether it’s their sweaters embroidered with cheeky messages or their gorgeous woven beach bags, whatever treasure you snag here will surely be a top gift of the season. That’s assuming, though, that you don’t end up keeping the gifts for yourself…

Shop Green at The Lab Anti Mall!
Okay, fine. The Lab isn’t located in Newport, but we love this place so much we’ll drive to it any day of the week for some nop-notch shopping. What makes this place so beloved to any serious Orange County shopper is this outdoor mall’s dedication to local and sustainable shopping. The A Store, for example, offers accessible art consignment, so you can gift uniquely and affordably. In the same complex is Plant Matter, a gorgeous shop featuring robust indoor plants, so you can gift green this holiday season!

Sorry – Couldn’t Choose Our Favorite Shop in Lido Marina Village!
The Lido Marina Village is teeming with so many fabulous shopping spots, we couldn’t pick a favorite! The small brick road that runs through this bayfront shopping center is lined with chic coastal lifestyle brands like Jenni Kayne, Clare V, Faherty, and Minnow. We go here when we want to gift that easeful Southern California style. Meanwhile, Le Labo, Aesop, and Cos Bar deliver internationally-acclaimed beauty products that make for killer stocking stuffers. This shopping village even has a boutique bookstore that curates a collection of children’s books, coffee table hardbacks, and bougie magazines like Barnes and Noble never could.
With so many shopping destinations in and around Newport Beach, you’ll need a place to rest your head! Check out our favorite vacation homes that come fully-stocked for all your seasonal celebrations!
