hopping local isn’t just something that Montecitans say, it’s something that they do — 365 days a year. That becomes especially apparent over the holidays, when boutiques, pop-ups, and mom-and-pop shops get the opportunity to help all of us provide a bit of holiday cheer through locally crafted gifts. The Upper Village in Montecito

has plenty of options for your shopping needs, and here is a look at a handful of businesses with holiday specials:
Plaza del Sol
All we can say is don’t delay, as there are a pair of events starting Friday and running through Sunday at Plaza del Sol in the Upper Village
that are must-attends. Here are some details: — There is a Holiday Pop-Up Shop at Wendy Foster Montecito with KAS cashmere scarves & long-time Wendy Foster favorite, Lena Skadegard jewelry — a pair of great gifts and a touch of sparkle for the holidays. — There is fireside lounging at Wendy Foster Sportswear Shop with the theme of cozy, including cashmere, cozy lounge sets, soft layers, and everything needed to stay cozy this season. Also, according to Michaela Donahue at Wendy Foster and Pierre Lafond, the Upstairs at Pierre Lafond
is stocked with holiday decor, table trimmings, hostess gifts, and extra special findings to surprise everyone on your list. For more, visit wendyfoster.com or shopupstairs.com.
Kismet Montecito
Talk about great timing. As the area sees a resurgence in brick-and-mortar shopping, Kismet Montecito has opened its doors just in time for the holiday, with the boutique selling intimates and fine jewelry.
