Kariella Opens Pop-Up Location in Downtown Santa Barbara

Kariella is excited to announce the launch of a new pop-up location in downtown Santa Barbara. Addressed at 833 State Street, Santa Barbara CA 93101, the 2,900 square foot location is just a stone’s throw away from the Paseo Nuevo Mall.

This modern bohemian boutique is proud to offer fashionable women’s apparel from popular brands such as Free People, Perfect White Tee, along with Kariella’s own eponymous label. Kariella is also thrilled to become the only retailer of FP Movement in the area.

The Kariella Men’s Den, which made its successful debut in 2023, boasts a wider presence in this new location, featuring sleek menswear brands such as Cuts and Alex Crane.

As a well-known carrier of high-end women’s swimwear from favourite brands such as Montce Swim and Bound by Bond Eye, Kariella owner Amara Bessa is eager to provide the shoppers of Santa Barbara with swimwear styles that, up until recently, have been difficult to come by.

As Bessa shares, “I have so many shoppers coming to Ojai because there aren’t many swimwear options in Santa Barbara. I’m hoping that Kariella will succeed in helping to fill a void and provide shoppers with a wider array of possibilities that they may not have found previously.”

The seasoned business owner and previous buyer for Angel, a Wendy Foster boutique, goes on to say, “Despite the Santa Barbara location being a pop-up store, I’m hopeful that Kariella will maintain a permanent residence moving forward.”

Bessa founded Kariella in 2010 with the motto of “Uniquely Beautiful,” a mindset which still holds true today. The successful fashion brand and purveyor of high-end retail items seeks to partner everyday style with a unique, personalised shopping experience that caters to men and women everywhere who believe that fashion should be both fun and effortless.

The Santa Barbara location is currently open Monday through Friday from 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM; and Saturday through Sunday from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM.

If you’re heading downtown, you’re invited to stop in, where you’ll receive a warm welcome from an exceptional fashion team. Savour the ambience of boho chic and allow yourself to rediscover your own unique beauty and style with Kariella.
