Shop To It! Find several new stores at Freshfields Village this spring.

The Kiawah Island lifestyle center is welcoming the Charleston area’s first Johnny Was boutique, a California-based brand known for its boho women’s clothing and accessories, and Luminary, a Florida-based line featuring travel-inspired fashion. The Beaufort Bonnet Company children’s shop and Spartina 449 women’s lifestyle store, which both have a presence in the Charleston market, are opening second locations at the village. In addition, Lululemon has relocated in an expanded space.

“Resort retail is having a moment,” says Ward Kampf, president of Northwood Retail, which owns Freshfields Village. “Unique, upscale brands are finding that resort retail enclaves have turned into year-round shopping experiences.”

Look out for Music on the Green, featuring live bands from 6 to 9 p.m. on May 15, and special promotions for Sidewalk Saturdays on April 16 and May 21.
