Corona del Mar, CdM to locals, is one of the ten distinct neighborhoods in Newport Beach. The Village in CdM is clustered along Pacific Coast Highway from Carnation to Poppy (all the streets in Corona del Mar are named after flowers) with the best locations just minutes away from one another. We are sharing the...

There’s a certain child-like joy that comes from decorating for the season. But even though we know palm imagery has been having a moment all year, what’s in vogue when it comes to holiday home decor? Are the days of traffic-light green and red behind us? Here, we talked to the team behind Roger’s Gardens—creative...

The trick to making end-of-the-year holiday parties one hit after the other? Impressive finger food. Forget about those pigs and their blankets. (That’s so last year). A modern host or hostess knows that the way to people’s hearts is through a well-crafted cheeseboard. It’s delicious—and with a little expert direction—fairly easy to put together. Which...

And just like that, gifting season is already in full swing. While receiving gifts takes little to no effort (save for dealing with those glitter-spewing wrapping papers), giving them is a bit more of a science. Shopping for certain family members—the difficult in-laws, that aunt you haven’t seen since last Christmas, that niece who’s suddenly...

In the midst of all the chaos—cooking, decorating, entertaining guests and running the dishwasher on an hourly basis—that is holiday season, shopping for clothes might be the last thing on your mind.

We all do Thanksgiving differently. Case in point: we can’t even agree on a single way to bake our star bird. Or anything, for that matter. Potatoes can be mashed, fried, stewed or thinly sliced and baked. Pecan pie can be served in lieu of pumpkin. Or—call us crazy—but even pumpkin crème brûlée is often...

The Angels believe they can help newly acquired catcher Jonathan Lucroy improve both offensively and defensively.

The Angels have a new closer in Cody Allen and there isn't any manager in baseball who knows him better than Indians skipper Terry Francona.

Mike Trout and owner Arte Moreno met separately with the media on Monday, but neither would confirm that extension talks have begun between the Angels and Trout's agent, Craig Landis.

The Angels will be without left fielder Justin Upton early in Spring Training, as he's dealing with right knee patellar tendinitis but is expected to be ready for Opening Day, manager Brad Ausmus said on Monday.

The next five weeks will see lots of shuffling on Major League rosters. Here are the most intriguing positional battles on each of the 30 MLB clubs.

Angels first baseman Albert Pujols met with the media for the first time this spring on Sunday and said he's fully healthy after undergoing arthroscopic surgery on his left knee in late August.

Shohei Ohtani is continuing to make progress in his rehab from Tommy John surgery. On Sunday, he said he is hopeful he'll be able to start hitting off a tee in the next week.

On this opening week of Spring Training, all 30 Major League teams have one thing in common: optimism. Here's an optimism cheat sheet for each of them.

The Angels added a veteran lefty reliever, as Dan Jennings officially signed a Minor League deal on Saturday and joined the club for workouts at the club's Spring Training complex. Jennings will earn $1 million, plus incentives, if he makes the club.

The Angels announced their Minor League coaching staffs on Saturday, including former Major League catcher Lou Marson being named the new manager of Triple-A Salt Lake and former big leaguer David Newhan as the new skipper at Double-A Birmingham.

After undergoing surgery in late June to repair a torn left labrum in his left shoulder that required nine anchors to be inserted to keep everything in place, Zack Cozart is healthy and looking for a bounce-back season with the Angels.

After Ohtani's nearly unprecedented two-way success during his American League Rookie of the Year campaign last year, more clubs are looking into the possibility of having players who can both pitch and play a position. Walsh fits that bill, as he has been a power-hitting first baseman and outfielder in the Minors, but he's made 10 pitching appearances over the past three seasons as well. The Angels are experimenting with him doing both this spring and this upcoming season.

Right-hander Matt Harvey sustained a glute strain while participating in agility drills on Wednesday and will be out for roughly a week and a half, Angels manager Brad Ausmus said Thursday.

The 2019 MLB season feels so close now. Spring Training has begun. Players are taking the field. So it's time to rank the best of the best.

Shohei Ohtani, who is aiming for a return in May as a designated hitter but won't pitch in 2019, isn't able to participate in the on-field workouts with his teammates, but has progressed to swinging the bat and working out indoors.

The 30 prospects below all are getting very long looks this spring with an eye toward breaking camp with the parent club. Even if they start the year in the Minors, they all should get the chance to contribute at some point in the very near future.

The Natural History Museums of Los Angeles had narrowed the choice down to three architectural teams: Diller Scofidio + Renfro, Weiss/Manfredi and Dorte Mandrup.

Pasadena Symphony has its holiday concert, "Snow White" gets a panto-style makeover, and She & Him bring their Christmas show to DTLA.

The documentary "Cunningham" profiles influential dancer-choreographer Merce Cunningham through archival footage and 3-D re-creations of his works.

Los Angeles painter Lari Pittman's maps were intersectional before intersectional was a thing, which means his three decade-long career is just right for 2019.

Elsa and Anna shine with the creative magic of set, costume and projection designers who make the national tour of the musical "Frozen" irresistible.

The performance "Un violador en tu camino," created by Chilean art collective Lastesis, has been staged around the world. On Sunday, it was at LACMA.

UCLA's School of Theater, Film and Television will make over the Ralph Freud Playhouse with new seating, lighting and sound, plus an improved lobby.

"Hell's Fury, the Hollywood Songbook" examines the brilliant German émigré who earned two Oscar nominations but got kicked out of the country by HUAC.

The Resnicks have donated additional funds to help upgrade UCLA's photo lab.

Somebody, a new messaging service developed by filmmaker, artist, and writer Miranda July, debuts today. The app is a new way to communicate: rather than connecting directly with another person, Somebody helps mediate interaction by introducing a third party to the mix. It works like this: when a message is sent from person A to person B […]

I remember visiting the Picasso Museum in Barcelona and being fascinated by one of Picasso’s school text books on display. I can’t remember the textbook’s subject because that part was irrelevant. My fascination lay in what had been drawn in the margins. I imagined a young Picasso bored by his teacher and distracted by a […]

Kimono for a Modern Age, currently on view in the Pavilion for Japanese Art, showcases how kimono designs evolved to integrate traditional and modern patterns with new chemical dyes and textile techniques during the first half of the 20th century.

For better or worse, every family has a unique dynamic. It’s a vibe that can be difficult to describe and only sometimes is intentionally cultivated. But despite its predominately subliminal nature, a family’s dynamic exerts a strong force. As kids, we began to realize what differentiated our home only by comparing ours to others. As […]

Few artists come along who blur the lines of the aesthetic paradigms of “fine art” or “folk art” and transcend both with a truthfulness and verve that allows us to see within the mythology. Sam Doyle is such an artist. He gives us more than mere images of vivid clarity, he opens an intimate world […]
