Kiss Me Kate
Santa Barbara brings to mind turquoise beaches, quaint outdoor cafés serving fresh farmer’s market fare, flowing floral sarongs and embroidered white linen dashikis. Still, ex-knit designer Kate McMahon brings her chic, edgier sensibility to the resort town with her store Kate, selling lesser known lines and up-and-comers like Pedro Garcia (suggested to be the new Manolo Blahnik), Kooba, Inhabit Cashemere, Erica Tanov and Velvet. Now she’s taken her expertise and impeccable eye online to KateBoutique.com, where shoppers from all over can peruse the lines by category, sale or designer for everything from Clu T-shirts to Golden Goose boots to Jill Stuart jackets and benefit from her love of perfect construction. 1% of each sale goes to Heal the Oceans. $52 and up, kateboutique.com
