Christiane Celle
Retailing force Christiane Celle pioneered shopping in St. Bart's more than a decade ago, and since then, she's added eponymous locations all over the globe. She recently returned to the island to open a secluded, tree-shrouded new spot—the original one had closed—and loaded it with gauzy tops, crochet skirts, and her signature crinkled-silk wrap dresses.
Shopping
Terra
After years of living in the West Indies, American-born proprietor Annelisa Gee has learned a thing or two about how to dress stylishly for the tropics. With Terra, she offers countless covetable interpretations of the bright top/breezy dress/floaty skirt wardrobe that's the unofficial uniform of St. Bart's, with takes on each by names like Aoyama Itchome, Miguelina, and Graham Kandiah.
