Easter Weekend on Miami Beach

Here are some scenes from Easter Weekend on Miami Beach!!!!  NO better place to wait for the Easter Bunny!!!!  Hoppy trails to you!!!!!  XO


Miami Style

One of my favorite places to visit is Miami.  The city is full of so much culture, art and high fashion.  The people watching is the best anywhere and the personal style is above all else.  I saw the most fashionable woman enjoying the city in the coolest outfit.  It was perfect for the warm climate and would take you well into the humid summer nights.  She had her hair in a high ponytail and I tried to recreate her outfit for you, below, of a feminine lace shift dress, wedge sandals, gold clutch and statement gold earrings.  Her look was on fleek!!!!  Bon Weekend!!!

The Matador Room

While on Spring Break, I met my bestie Leeann in Miami for a GNO overnight.  We had the greatest time together!!!  We drove around the city, shopped, stayed up wayyyyy too late catching up and really enjoyed all that Miami has to offer!!!   We choose the Matador Room, Jean Georges Vongerichten’s glamorous restaurant with decor reminiscent of 1940 and 50’s supper clubs for dinner.  The menu is Jean Georges’ take on Caribbean, Spanish, Latin and South American cuisines.  We enjoyed sharing quite a few dishes and our love for Miami and Jean Georges grew with each bite.  If you are visiting the South Florida area, The Matador room is a MUST!!!!!
