"Echo Park-based designer Kathryn Bentley's high-end costume jewelry, Dream Collective, is stocked at some of the best shops around town—Elyse Walker and Stark among them—and now, it's available at a boutique of her very own. The store, isn't just a jewelry box, though. Bentley's filled it with clothes, art, accessories and more from a roster of cool labels including Caitlin Wylde (whose collage work is pictured), Jesse Kamm, Lem Lem, Beatrice Valenzuel, Summer Bummer and her other (namesake) jewelry line, Kathryn Bentley."
