December 13 is about to become the busiest day of your year. 

Stella McCartney Opens First Bay Area Store 

The Bay Area's very first Stella McCartney boutique opened last weekend, but not in Union Square. The cruelty-free fashion maven took over a former Kate Spade space at the Stanford Shopping Center. Look out for finds you won't find at other department stores, like her obscure lingerie line and more fun offerings from the collaboration with Adidas. 660 Stanford Shopping Center, Palo Alto
