Navigating Art Basel Invites December
The 5 best bets for Art Basel 2010 – Thursday
We know: You’re on Art Basel invite overdrive. To help you navigate your way through all the mess, we’ve sorted our inbox to find 5 do-not-miss events we’re hitting up today (including our own).
1) Starbucks with your art? Now that’s a good afternoon. Get your caffeine fix and mingle with artists during the contemporary exhibit, Art+Culture Editions. It takes place from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. on the rooftop of the Gansevoort Miami Beach Hotel. (2377 Collins Ave.)
2) Since movies are best enjoyed in the comforts of home, make your way to the swank Fendi Casa showroom for an exclusive cocktail and viewing party. The Director & Artist Collaboration soirée will feature debuts from various filmmakers from 6-9 p.m. RSVP to Fendi@taraink.com (90 NE 39th St.) (more…)
Art Basel Anyone?
Art is for Everyone, and the Party is for Divas
Excuse me, did you just ask, “what’s Art Basel?” It is only the art show to attend – in Basel Switzerland and Miami Beach. We like to do it sans passport, so mark your calendars for December 2 – 5, 2010, and meet us in Miami.
Art Basel Miami Beach, the most prestigious art show worldwide of music, film, architecture and design… did someone say party?
Parking’s A Bitch. Why Not Make It Easy? Roam Vespa Scooter and Bicycle Rentals
You know Miami is full of Euros, you may actually be one of them. So, what’s not to love about a little culture from around the world?
Time to Roam on a Vespa. Hello, obsession.
We’re all about indulging our inner European without the expense of airfare. Think Vespas at their finest – meticulously maintained and brand spanking new and they are so super stylish too.
You wouldn’t waste time hailing a taxi when you could have the wind blowing through your hair. And Facebook it, you are definitely not into searching for a non-existent parking spot when front door parking is an option. (more…)
Fashions Night Out… Who Doesn’t Want To Play Anna Wintour?
Picture this: an after-hours shopping exclusive in Miami’s most fashionable district with cocktails and catered treats (comp’d, of course), celebrity sightings, and musical perfection from groove genius Elastic Bond.
It all started last year when Anna Wintour launched Fashion’s Night Out to celebrate fashion around the world with 15 international Vogue editions. This year on Friday, September 10th, Miami’s Design District is excited to be joining in the shopping extravaganza. Elastic Bond performance in Oak Plaza at 9:00 pm. (more…)
Invite: Fashion Shows, Shopping Sprees, Cocktails and A Celeb
Your closet is absolutely full. Stella’s minis, stilettos galore… so how is it that every time you’re going to work, you can’t find anything to wear? Fret no longer, power femme.
Fashion show anyone? That’s what we thought.
Let’s just say The Limited has gotten word of your, ahem, limited wardrobe for the 9-to-5. So they’ve asked career expert and author Nicole Williams to host you and your power posse for three exclusive events. She’ll answer questions and chit-chat about her fave looks from The Limited’s latest collection, and if you come to the Dadeland Mall appearance, you’ll also mingle with The Limited’s VP of Design, Elliot Staples, and his team of stylists. (more…)
Secret Cocktail Society Invite
A secret society? Cocktail attire (and its corollary… ultra chic cocktails – comp’d)? Count a Diva in!
As if you need to be told twice to gallavant around in your new metallic mini from your fave designer’s fall collection. So come equipped with stilettos and your most cocktail-friendly femmes. Thomas Merolla will be your host, and drinks are on the house from 10-11:00pm. This week’s secret ingredient? Lychee. Talk about yum. That’s just how it’s done at Betsey Hotel’s B Bar. (more…)
Miami Yoga Rolls Out The Fred Carpet For A Diva, the Best Deal ever
Better posture. Increased flexibility and strength. A heightened sense of calm and concentration.
Divas don’t mess around – they do yoga.
It’s not often, however, that Divas can learn from Fred Busch himself. London, Peru… we’d say he’s off galavanting, but “sharing the light’ might be more apt. (He’s Director of Yogashala Teacher Training in both places.) (more…)
New Year’s Eve Party at the Catalina Hotel
New Year’s Eve in Miami is a Diva’s favorite holiday – unlimited sequins, stilettos, lashes and champagne. Kick off the start of another Diva decade at Miami’s ultimate NYE destination at the Catalina Hotel and Beach Club. (more…)
