繼上一篇介紹的《讓人心動不已的實驗室咖啡精神│Portola Coffee Lab, CA》

這篇要來分享的是 mix shops 主角：the OC MiX ＆ SOCO COLLECTION

the OC MiX

We have the perfect Mix to match you. Orange County’s acclaimed shopping destination, The OC Mix, is located within Costa Mesa’s SOCO Collection.

SOCO COLLECTION

SoCo is the only interior design center in Southern California to combine an array of world class purveyors of home furnishings, fine antiques, outdoor living, fixtures, appliances and finishes with an abundance of California casual and artisan home accessory stores/showrooms-all of which cater to both the public and the interior design trade. At long last the public is welcome to visit over 20 showrooms, many of which were formerly located in "trade only" design centers. Each showroom features experienced onsite design professionals standing by to assist homeowners and their designers to create unique interior environments.

喝完咖啡當然拍拍照再逛逛週邊的shops才能散場！

已經習慣悠閒步調的我  已經不像以前急急忙忙的計劃著人生

不會想提早計劃下一個地點也不擔心没地方可去！

此刻，把當下的景色和感覺都納入眼底融入心裡儼然才是旅客最重要的事！

簡單介紹一下 the OC MiX & SOCO COLLECTION 的關係

SOCO COLLECTION 有傢俱、設計、服飾、畫室等等，可以説是一整個大區域的shops

而 the OC MiX 則是這整個大區域其中一棟buliding

the OC MiX 走創意巧思的精緻消費路線

SOCO 則是可以訂製可以用餐可以挖寶可以慢慢晃上一整天的悠閒地方！

一開始因為在找咖啡館所以是從 the OC MiX 主建物開始逛起～

SOCO COLLECTION 其實是順著 the OC MiX 的週圍而設計的浪漫花園

在 Portola Coffee Lab 時  大餐桌的側邊有一間時尚複合式品牌墨鏡shop！

一進去就立刻被其中幾副墨鏡燒到～～～太時尚了吧!!!

提供網址給大家參考 Alexander Gray　&　Alexander Gray

CELLAR CHEESE SHOP  口味和成份標示清楚

還有販售許多口味的果醬和醬汁！喜歡蒐集的人可以來找找看！

這間店就在 CELLAR CHEESE SHOP 隔壁，商品頗具設計感～

stoned jewelry 銀飾店的外邊走廊  坐著一位不知為何事而苦惱著的男人

Birdie Bowl and Juicery 是素食主義者的餐館  販售著健康的果汁＆蔬菜

很喜歡這樣色澤和紋理的木頭！

牆壁上好看的相框牆面，為想像留一面空間！ 

小小的空間不大但能感受到佈置細節的精緻及用心！

SEVENTH ● TEA BAR

According to Chinese tradition, tea is considered the seventh necessity of life.

Thus the name, Seventh Tea Bar. We serve hot tea brewed to order from single estate loose leaf tea.

We have iced tea on tap with six varities to choose from daily.

There is also single estate loose leaf tea and teawares to purchase by the ounce for home brewing.

感覺上，是一間擁有對茶藝茶葉有著研究的茶館！

完全顛覆對中式茶館的想像～SEVENTH●TEA BAR 散發出來的茶藝品味接近英式午茶的歐洲風格！

很喜歡拍攝強烈自我個性淡淡神秘特質的女人

我們會討論著許多人生、人妻的話題，對著彼此有一種堅定的信任感  

不常見面卻很熟悉，一點也不像是才認識半年的朋友！

the OC MiX裡的每一間shop都像圖中這樣有大有小可以花點時間慢慢挖寶噢！

接下來，往 SOCO COLLECTION 前進囉！

mur mur: 我在這裡的傢俱店找到心目中想要的大型木製餐桌但完全超乎預算～～嗚嗚... 

第一間是很棒的 Greenleaf

At Greenleaf, you choose to be as healthy as you want to be. We believe in variety, freshness and giving you, our guest, the ability to make healthy lifestyle decisions in a delicious, gourmet setting.

路過一間很棒的畫畫教室！小孩和大人赤著雙腳在畫布上走來走去～這樣的親子時光真幸福  ：）

接近下午時間，我們決定繼續到附近的 South Coast Plaza 買 Nespresso 咖啡膠囊 

We were at South Coast Plaza.  

跟女生逛街真得好開心也比較能吸收最新的時尚訊息！
