My Go-To Designers for Eye-Catching Earrings

You long time readers know that my signature fashion item are earrings. I don't even want to count the number of pair I have. My justification is that people often stop me and ask about my earrings which is an intro to MiamiCurated, so let's say they're "promotional pieces". Actually, they cost a lot less (the costume jewelry variety) than handbags or shoes, so a perfect "splurge". With that in mind, here's a list of my favorite Miami jewelry designers that have a flair for earrings and some do other accessories as well. And, a special visual treat, to die for rings from a hot New York designer.

Spice Up Your Workout Wardrobe with These Fresh Picks

Confession. I find most activewear boring. Sure, it needs to be comfortable, provide ease of movement, and not be heavy given our warm climate. All that is a given. But if you wear leggings and tops often as I do, going to the gym daily, you want to put on something that’s at least a little jazzy, no? I’ve written about two shops in the past I liked (and still do), but wanted to find more choices so I devoted time to online research, going beyond the international brands we all know that I can’t get excited about. I also made a top discovery when in New York recently, a shop that sells online. Here are some of my picks for fun fashion activewear focusing on leggings. And gentlemen, I looked for you, too, but there’s even less variety, alas.

Sale: Luxury Linen Fashion for Men and Women at 120% Lino

Linen clothes to me say luxury. Could it be  because I equate them with casually elegant Italians, men and women whom I saw on my first trip to Milan? That’s part of it, but much more. And the brand that does linen fashion for men and women so well is 120% Lino.  They also have attractive Italian fashion jewelry, shoes for men and other accessories for a  his and hers head to toe wardrobe. And the big news is there’s a sale on now, 40% off.

Not only are there bathing suits and beach wear for men and women, but beauty products , accessories (lots of hats), and even beverage (coconut waters).

Stylish Spectacle: Fashion and Hat Spotting

Always a not-to-be-missed event for fashion and hat spotting is The Annual Miami Beach Garden Club Spring Luncheon which never disappoints.  Last month the tony Indian Creek Country Club dining room was awash with glorious flowers, an homage to Monet’s Garden, this year’s theme.  Members and guests dressed in beautiful florals wore hats, most they had made,  decorated with live plant material.  Here are some of my favorite outfits and hats at the Miami Beach Garden Club Luncheon, And note if you're interested in joining the Garden Club (no need to live on the Beach), look for an email at the end to get more information.
