The best doughnut shops in L.A.
Why we love it: Siblings Hana and Nile Dreiling first started serving fried-to-order taro doughnuts made with locally sourced ingredients back in 2018. Now, Holey Grail has made it to the mainland with two L.A. outposts: Santa Monica and Larchmont Village. While I wouldn't recommend these pricey, smaller-than-average vegan doughnuts over, say, Sidecar or the Donut Man, the unique texture—somewhere between a mochi doughnut and a cake doughnut—and high-quality ingredients like single-estate dark chocolate make Holey Grail noteworthy enough to merit inclusion in this guide. Rotating flavors and collab doughnuts with high-profile chefs keep things interesting for those inclined toward novelty, but manage your expectations: Holey Grail, while tasty enough, doesn't really live up to the hype.
Time Out tip: Eat these fresh, right out of the fryer, or not at all. Holey Grail Donuts don't travel well.

The best doughnut shops in L.A.
What is it? An artisan plant-based doughnut shop originally from Kauai, Hawaii.

I've Loved This A-List Fave Bag For Years – Now It's 25% Off For Prime Day
JW Pei, Gabbi Ruched Hobo Handbag in White JW Pei, Gabbi Ruched Hobo Handbag in Black JW Pei, Hana Medium Tote Bag JW Pei, Tessa Shoulder Bag JW Pei, Gabbi Ruched Hobo Handbag in Yellow JW Pei, Abacus Top Handle Bag JW Pei, Arlene Heart Shaped Bag JW Pei, Orla Weave Handbag JW Pei, Hana Mini Tote Bag JW Pei, Harlee Shoulder Bag JW Pei, Sharon Crossbody Bag When it comes to standout 'It' bags, as we often christen them, there are a thousand great handbags that cost a lot of money, but only a handful that don't demand a splurge. So it's always a delight when some of our favourite stylish celebrities debut a more affordable accessory in their street style pictures. If Selena Gomez, Gigi Hadid and Emily Ratajkowski are any indication, the A-list's new favourite bag is a chic, versatile, under £100 design from LA-based label JW Pei, and it's currently discounted upto 25% for Amazon's Prime Day fashion deals. But be warned, the sale only runs till the 11th of July, so we'd advise against hesitation. ©Getty Images/Matt Winkelmeyer For the last several years, JW Pei's bags have been quietly amassing a pretty famous fan following. Take, for example, the Gabbi bag, which has found its way to the arms of some of our favourite well-dressed women – from Hailey Bieber and EmRata to Irina Shayk and Megan Fox. The brand's buckled Eva bag has also been a popular pick, spotted on Shay Mitchell earlier this year when she paired it with an uber chic micro shorts and biker jacket outfit. Largely made from recycled plastic and vegan leather, the bags are as sustainable as they are fashion-forward. Apart from the A-list favourites, I've also spotted the Hana tote bag on multiple fashion editors lately. Its faux suede finish is obviously trendy, but I'd wager the bag's main appeal lies in its sleek silhouette that's still roomy enough to hold your laptop and other essentials. What really sold me on it, however, is the simple fact that it's currently 20% off on Amazon. Whether you're after a tiny shoulder bag or a roomy carryall, JW Pei's designs span the spectrum and will serve you well for years to come. Undertstated and timeless yet surprisingly modern, the collection is a great starting point if you're looking for an investment handbag that doesn't come with a hefty price tag. While the fashion editor-approved tote bag starts from £104 on Amazon, you can get Gigi Hadid and Hailey Bieber's favoured styles for as little as £72 till Friday. JW Pei, Gabbi Ruched Hobo Handbag in White Price: £71.20 (was £75.65) Take a page from the A-list playbook and wear your ruched Gabbi bag for everything from everyday errands to evenings out. JW Pei, Gabbi Ruched Hobo Handbag in Black The black iteration is just as classic with jeans and a baby tee as with an LBD for a dinner party. JW Pei, Hana Medium Tote Bag AS roomy as it is chic, the Hana tote has all the makings of your new favourite everyday bag. JW Pei, Tessa Shoulder Bag Add a touch of biker chic to your accessory lineup with the buckled Tessa bag. Ideal styling definitely includes a leather jacket. JW Pei, Gabbi Ruched Hobo Handbag in Yellow The colour of the season, butter yellow, looks great on the ruched Gabbi bag and is perfect for adding a pop of colour to your summer outfits. JW Pei, Abacus Top Handle Bag Price: £103.20 (was £129) Out for a fancy dinner? This studded Abacus bag will work perfectly. Although it also comes in less flashy iterations, so you could slip it into your understated looks with ease. JW Pei, Joy Shoulder Bag Another excellent shoulder bag, the Joy's elongated east-west silhouette is bang on trend for SS25, while the simple fuss-free design has a timeless touch. JW Pei, Arlene Heart Shaped Bag If you've been eying Alaïa's Le Coeur bags for a while, this heart-shaped JW Pei bag is a great alternative that'll cost you much less. JW Pei, Orla Weave Handbag JW Pei excels at designer-looking bags, and this woven bag with a curved gold-tone handle is as elegant as Bottega Veneta's Sardine bag without the hefty price tag. JW Pei, Hana Mini Tote Bag As luxe as its full-size predecessor, the mini Hana tote is more compact but can still fit your daily essentials with ease. JW Pei, Harlee Shoulder Bag JW Pei, Sharon Crossbody Bag You can't go wrong with a classic crossbody for day-to-day wear. JW Pei's Sharon adds a fashion-forward slant with its chic crescent shape. Amazon Prime Day starts today, 8th July 2025 and runs until the 11th, so there's plenty of time to snag a celeb-beloved handbag. Prime Day is Amazon's bi-annual sale event exclusively available for Prime members. Every year, products across brands, including Calvin Klein, Guess, Levi's, Kate Spade and more are heavily discounted. You can also find excellent Prime Day beauty deals on brands such as Elizabeth Arden, Byoma, Elemis, Philips and more.

Brooklyn Beckham's ex Hana Cross stuns in a denim drop waist dress as she joins stylish Penny Lancaster at The Boodles tennis event
Hana Cross and Penny Lancaster looked incredible as they attended day two of The Boodles Tennis at Stoke Park in Buckinghamshire on Tuesday. Brooklyn Beckham 's ex-girlfriend, 27, looked effortlessly chic in a denim drop waist dress that flowed into an asymmetric blue stripe skirt. She teamed the look with white mini white flip flop heels and toted her belongings in a stylish burgundy bag. Hana added a Polo Ralph Lauren denim cap and accessorised with silver jewellery. Meanwhile Penny, 54, looked stylish in a blush pink maxi dress adorned with red and orange floral detailing. The glamorous wife of legendary singer Sir Rod Stewart added a pair of gold Valentino sandals and carried a pink Bottega bag, worth a whopping £2.8k. She draped a hot pink scarf over her shoulder and shielded her eyes with a pair of gold frame sunglasses. Hana's ex Brooklyn has recently become estranged from father David Beckham, 50, and mother Victoria, 51, with his heiress wife Nicola Peltz being blamed for the rift in the once tight-knit family. The Beckhams have largely remained silent in public about the rift, but they are said to fear that Brooklyn is falling increasingly under the control of Nicola. Brooklyn recently said he is excited to build his own family with wife Nicola, as tensions continue to simmer between him and his parents. During a PDA-packed video shared released by Glamour Magazine , the eldest son of Victoria and David gushes multiple times that he can see kids in his future, and that Nicola will be an 'amazing' mother. Brooklyn appeared to nail his loyalties to the mast when he posted an image on Instagram of himself and Nicola riding a motorbike, writing: 'My whole world x I will love you forever x I always choose you baby x you're the most amazing person I know xx me and you forever baby.' Hana and Brooklyn split in August 2019 after eight months of dating, in the wake of a string of explosive public rows. He began dating Nicola two months later. The eldest Beckham child had also previously dated actress Chloe Moretz and TikToker-turned-singer Madison Beer before finding love with Nicola. Singer Kara Marni (left) and ballet dancer Natasha Arben (right) were also in attendance on Wednesday Hana is currently single, but was linked to Kourtney Kardashian's ex Scott Disick and Brooklyn's brother in law, Bradley Peltz. After the split from Brooklyn, Hana went on to write a scathing song about an ex in 2020, which friends insisted was about Brooklyn. The lyrics include: 'You broke my heart and said let's be friends but I never heard from you again and that's kind of mean.' 'I saw us as meant to be and you saw me as temporary and that's kind of rough. 'I'm confused and I'm sad, I don't know what I did but you said it wasn't my fault but without reason how can I know?' But there seems to be no bad blood between Hana and Brooklyn as there appeared to be little said over Hana and Bradley's romantic evening. Penny enjoyed a drink with pals as she settled down with a group of friends ahead of the tennis A source, who spotted the pair at the Beverly Hills Hotel's Cabana Cafe in February 2024, told The Sun on Sunday's Bizarre column that it looked 'intimate'. The source said: 'They looked very intimate and like they were deep in conversation. 'Brad didn't seem to mind that Hana had been in a serious relationship with his sister's husband, or who saw them together. 'He was obviously out to impress, taking her to the most famous spot in LA, where money is no object.'
