Posted by Kathryn Wahl on Monday, May 21, 2012 

If you’re craving a shopping experience that’s exactly that: an experience, look no further. Former clothing buyer, stylist, actress, and costumer Erin Tavin combined her love and knowledge of fashion, fantasy,and travel and opened her very own TAVIN BOUTIQUE in Echo Park back in 2009. Full of one-of-a-kind gems, the shop is a lovely blend of old and new, nostalgia and modern. Erin describes herself as having, “One foot in a world one hundred years ago and one foot in this world today, and somewhere in a circus tent I live as well.” As unique and interesting as the choices are in her store, Tavin shares her well-rounded “Top 5 Culture Mix”…

Getaway: Big Sur. “Especially the hot springs at Essellon,my favorite place in California for total peace and a slice of heaven.”

Song: Suzanne but Leonard Cohen. “It sounds old fashioned but I’m still hooked on Leonard Cohen’s song; it always makes me cry after thousands of times hearing it.”

Novel: Madame Bovary. ”One of my all time faves, it’s got everything you could want in a novel. I’m a HUGE reader so I also have to mention Flaubert’s Sentimental Education, it’s fantastic.”

Poem: “Leaves of Grass” by Walt Whitman. “A very beautiful poem that’s on my wall in my yurt/studio. Everyone should read it!” 

Designer: Comme des Garçons. “I’m drawn to ethereal clothing. My shop, TAVIN, has a lot of romantic qualities.”
