She brings the same care to her own enterprise, going twice a week to shop in Downtown LA for her stock.
When I visited, she'd moved on into spring with sheer dresses in pinks and greens and oranges.
"Nothing over $49.99," she told me. And there was much to be had for a lot less.
I left with pair of spiffy turquoise painted earrings and plan to come back for great dress in jade green in with a built in scarf.
It's going to be hard not to stop by this weekend when Eileen is offering free sunglasses and earrings to everyone who buys a dress and mentions Echo Park Patch. Limit one per customer.
Eileen is located at 3530 W. Sunset Boulevard 90026.
