The beat keeps going with all kinds of different things to do in Miami April 2022. Here are my picks for an afternoon outing, design, Earth Day happenings for all ages, music, art, polo on the beach,and more.
Today and tomorrow only there's a  popup, The Poppy Caravan Popup Miami, you won't want to miss!Showcased are  a wide array of luxury fashions, accessories, home decor and gift items. Plus  you can combine it with lunch or drinks at the prime people watching lunch spot, Bellini in the Mr. C Hotel, or grab a light bite in The Bazaar Project next door and make it an afternoon!  The Popup reminds me of the trunk shows I used to love at the Pierre Hotel in New York that were spearheaded by Melissa Biggs Bradley of Indagare. As you know, I don't usually devote an entire blogpost to a popup, but I checked out the designers and decided it looks like it's well worth its own post.
Hands down some of the best gift items around can be found at museum shops worldwide. That has been the case for awhile but, with the dire need for funds with so many museums closed, they have stepped up their game in their shops, an important source of revenue. How about doing your holiday gift shopping or just pamper yourself and help museums. The perfect time, too, is this Sunday, November 29, more than 1,400 museum stores representing all 50 states and the District of Columbia, 23 countries, and five continents will offer inspired shopping at museums and cultural institutions during the fourth annual Museum Store Sunday. In South Florida I have some museum shop favorites and also, here's a list by the Huff Post of the top ten for online shopping in the USA.
It’s seldom I go to a store and want to buy just about everything. A notable exception is The Bazaar Project in its expanded new home in Coconut Grove. The owner, sourcer and person of exquisite taste is Yeliz Tetiz, who travels the world discovering contemporary treasures in home décor, men and women’s fashion, and jewelry. It’s best described as a Concept Store. Sharing the space with the retail offerings is an inviting café with tropical flair that opens onto the street. Though just open for two months, it’s already a hot ticket. Expect Yeliz’s stylish touches, even in the café. A coffee is not just a coffee. It’s served on a silver tray with a piece of Turkish delight candy. Order a glass of wine or cocktail and it comes with a dish of nibbles.
The first half of this month is always about all things Art Basel, but now that that’s over, there are still so many cool things to do in Miami in December -- from fashion and design events to concerts, our picks. We love them—and we think you will, too!
A terrific new addition to outlet stores in Miami features contemporary classic accessories for office, bathroom, kitchen and entertaining. It’s RLB Outlet and it’s the retail shop of the adjacent hotel and restaurant supplier, Real.life.basic. Items are design minded and quality ,and come in a variety of materials including wood, porcelain, stainless steel, acrylic, bamboo and glass.
A fun day is exploring what will soon be the hot new area in Miami, Little River. Thanks to visionary and pioneer Mindy Solomon of the namesake art gallery who used to be in Wynwood, we got insider tips on what to see and do, and where to eat. Here's a guide to what we found: five art galleries; a stylish new shop for home décor items, art and gifts; an outpost of a concept store featuring emerging designers; and soon, a major food hall Citadel (watch for a review here). Enjoy!
You're going to love the list of Things to Do in Miami we have for you this month -- and they start this week!!
Just when I think there can't possibly be anymore events, happenings and fairs in Art Basel Miami week, 2018 turned out to be the topper. It's probably easy to do a week of 24/7 art, design, food and lifestyle happenings and never repeat an event or a venue. Fortunately, some of the offerings launched this week will become permanent, and many of the museum shows are around for the first quarter of 2019. I've indicated which you'll be able to see beyond the Fair week. In any case, here are some of my favorites in fashion, design and art this year because they're highly creative, fun, handsome, clever, skillful, or all of the above.
INIVA Miami caught my eye when it was in Wynwood. But now in a sparkling new shop in Upper Buena Vista, its treasures of fashion, art, design and home decor really shine. Plus, put it on your list as one of the better gift shops Miami. The African concept store is described as traditional Africa meets Modern Africa. SAndra Bellon, stylist and Sophie Pozmentier, designer, have a discerning eye and taste, and have put together a handsome collection from ten artists, associations and craftsmen from Gabon, Burkina Faso, Kenya, Tanzania, Senegal and Cameroon.
