Wear to Where: Taryn Michelle
05.04.11
Nestled on the corner of Pacific Coast Highway and Calliope Street in Laguna Beach, there’s a 215 square foot cottage that is anything but little. What first started as a childhood dream will soon become a Laguna Beach institution: Taryn Michelle Boutique is bringing luxury back to the beach with lifestyle basics that will make you comfortable and classy.
As I entered this little gem of a store I was met with the sweet smell of a Makana candle, made locally right up the street. Soft Joie, Langston and T-Los Angeles tops fill her racks which go great with jeans or just as a throw over to a bathing suit.
I loved the flowing linen pants by Krisa for the perfect beach day outfit pair them with a Salt Bikinis and some TKEE Sandals.

If you’re looking to add something to your hot summer night lineup, then try on a Susana Monaco dress with a Chan Liu scarf; I would finish the look off with some jewelry by Laguna Beach based company Gorjana.
Don’t forget to take a little piece of your day home to share it with that special someone who couldn’t make it, nothing says “beach day” like a shell covered picture frame or box. Taryn has made it a point to include some great gift items including wire and bead signs from Kithi Signs. These one of a kind gifts can be customized to say anything that pops in your head; assuring that you can find just the right thing for that difficult person.
I am adding Taryn Michelle Boutique to my list of “Must Visit” stores in Laguna Beach, and I’m sure you will also.
What to Wear | Lanston, Krisa, Soft Joie, Beautiful People, Liam Cashmere, Paige Premium Denim, 360 Cashmere, Susana Monaco, T-Los Angeles, Only Hearts, Velvet, AG Denim, Salt Bikinis
