Busy moms know how to multitask, and emerging tastemaker Maria Thornton is no exception. Her pop-up shop turned e-commerce venture, Sea and Wander, is now a permanent brick and mortar.
The Argentine-born Thornton landed in San Diego by way of New York, and credits her 17 years in the Big Apple as the source of her city-chic style. With a mix of boutique East and West Coast brands, the store stocks women’s, kids’, and baby clothes, plus darling giftables.
“The idea of creating a place where moms can shop for both themselves and their kids came from being a mom and not having a place that could provide that,” she says. Done and done. Wander this way to complete your holiday shopping list.
