Downtown Ventura Store Window Style

While Ventura, CA is not known for being a fashion mecca, it boasts some trendy and affordable boutiques in its quaint downtown area. New shops and restaurants are constantly opening in this quiet beachside community located south of Santa Barbara. Unlike many beach cities in southern California, it's free and easy to park in downtown Ventura, making it a pleasant and convenient destination for watching a movie, grabbing a bite, or checking out the latest bakery or wine bar. Below is a brief window shopping tour featuring Camouflage and Soultonic, two chic and inexpensive boutiques that always tempt me when I'm strolling down the block.
