Reader Suggested: I grew up in DC and went away for college. I never had any plans of coming back, but Nana almost single-handedly changed that. I have always been fashion-minded, which is not always an easy state of mind to possess in DC, but things have started to change. Jackie Flannigan's store Nana has greatly contributed to that change.

For the hip, edgy LA are boisterous frocks and serious, almost avant-garde pieces from small New York designers. As a nod to classic Hollywood glamour, find hand-picked vintage from Dior, Chanel and...
