Other toppings include nuts, seeds, fruit, chocolate and Greek honey.

The menu also features sweet and savory Greek bowls, plus smoothies for guests on the go. All are available in customizable and pre-made combinations.

More than a yogurt shop, Go Greek Yogurt is a Mediterranean lifestyle brand that celebrates intentional living, nourishing ingredients and the joy of slowing down. It invites guests to reconnect with their bodies, their communities and their culture, one delicious bite at a time.

Go Greek Yogurt Irvine Spectrum is located at 611 Spectrum Center Drive, Suite 611, Irvine, near The Cheesecake Factory.The 800-square-foot shop is open daily from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. and offers outdoor seating.

Diamonds by Day at South Coast Plaza

Jessica McCormack, the London-based jewelry house known for its vintage-meets-modern aesthetic, has opened its first West Coast boutique at South Coast Plaza. The 1,600-square-foot space brings the brand’s signature style to Costa Mesa with antique furniture, contemporary art and collected treasures.

McCormack designs diamond jewelry for the modern woman, creating heirlooms meant for future generations. The boutique reflects the relaxed elegance of the brand’s London shops, with a curated mix of art, antiques and objets alongside the full jewelry collection. The setting invites clients to explore the pieces in a space that feels both refined and intimate.

As with every Jessica McCormack store, the interior takes its cues from the brand’s original Victorian flagship in Mayfair, London. Look for a Porthmeor piece by British artist Wilhelmina Barns-Graham. The hand-printed Mauny wallpaper draws on 18th- and 19th-century historical revivals, and the fabrics are by Pierre Frey and Lee Jofa.

The boutique showcases McCormack’s signature Day Diamonds, from exclusive one-of-a-kind pieces to new collections. McCormack, the brand’s founder, said wearability has always been central to her designs, which are meant for everyday wear rather than special occasions. She said Californians instinctively dress that way, with an effortless quality she has long admired, which makes the region the ideal home for Day Diamonds.

The South Coast Plaza boutique is the brand’s fourth standalone location, joining the London flagship, a second London store and the New York City flagship. The brand also has a space at Harrods in London.

Cult Gaia Brings Its Bold Style to South Coast Plaza

Orange County just got a new place to shop for statement pieces. Los Angeles-based Cult Gaia has opened a boutique at South Coast Plaza in Costa Mesa, with ready-to-wear, handbags, shoes and accessories all under one roof.

The brand started with accessories, and it still treats each design like a small work of art. Sculptural shapes and natural textures make these pieces the kind you notice twice, and the kind you’ll want to hold onto and hand down someday. That heirloom mindset runs through the whole collection, from the breezy dresses to the footwear.

If you know the brand, you know the bamboo Ark bag. It’s the piece that put Cult Gaia on the map, and it goes with just about everything.

You’ll find the boutique on the Upper Level, between Saint Laurent and Tiffany & Co. and near Din Tai Fung.

Open 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Thursday; 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Friday and Saturday; 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sunday.
