Hidden Treasures is a visual and vintage goldmine. It has everything from early 20th century dresses to '80s glam accessories, for both men and women. The owner, Darrell Hazen, has been in the vintage clothing business since the '70s, and he knows his stuff. Supermodel Kate Moss and singer Lenny Kravitz love the store and we guarantee if you stop by once, you'll be back!

Bret Banta Comedy House, West Hollywood
Getting stage time in comedy clubs can be tough, so Bret Banta and a few rogue comedians decided to create their own venues. This unique experience takes you out of the club and into Banta's home for a truly one of a kind experience. The shows are incredibly intimate but that's what makes it fun. A $10 ticket will get you water, beer, and some snacks to go along with the show. For show info, follow Bret on Instagram @bretbanta or email him to reserve your seat on the couch at bretjbanta@gmail.com. http://bretbantacomedy.com/
