Black Milk Bubble Tea

 One of my favorite drinks that I stumbled upon while living in New York is Black Milk Bubble Tea… It has tapioca balls at the bottom to help when you take a gulp. It’s kind of sweet and has a bit of caffeine to pep you up. Did a little business today in my blue Zara suit and stopped by to grab a bubble tea. In the city, my favorite place for bubble tea is Vivi Bubble Tea but this spot here in West Palm Beach is called Art of Boba. They also sell an amazing green waffle. Go grab one today!

Furry Bags and Shoes at the Moncler NYFW FW 2024 Show

So, happy New York Fashion Week! On the Moncler Grenoble Fall/Winter 2024 runway, furry bags and shoes were included in many of the looks. Other brands like Louis Vuitton (pictured on Kim Kardashian below) have picked up on the trend as well. I found a few fur boots (below) that you can grab now, check them and other looks from the Moncler runway.

NYC Restaurant Week: Top 3 Must-Try Favorites

Estiatorio Milos’ Milos Special

Hey there! So it’s been a little bit of time since I was in the city but I just had to share some of my favorite restaurants participating in New York Restaurant Week from January 16 to February 4th. If you’re not familiar with the week, restaurants provide discounts and prix-fixe menus so that you can have a somewhat less expensive dining experience. 

So, here are my top three favorite restaurants in New York that are participating in Restaurant Week.

Estiatorio Milos – has some of the city’s best Greek food, some of the fish and other produce are flown in on a daily basis from the Mediterranean

Estiatorio Milos’ Loup de mer
Philippe Chow Chicken Satays

Phillippe Chow – upscale Chinese restaurant with some of the best chicken satays and peking duck I’ve ever had

Red Rooster Fried Yardbird

Red Rooster Marcus Samuelsson created a Harlem staple some time ago and I just love Red Rooster. Forget the decor and the music, the Southern American food is just delicious. The deviled eggs, fried chicken, collard greens and cornbread are some of my fave dishes.

Are you going anywhere for New York Restaurant Week?

The Perfect Outfit for Art Basel Miami from SIR.

Good morning from sunny South Florida! Art Week Miami is upon us and there are all kinds of events, parties and celebrations going on. I stumbled upon a cute, artsy dress from a brand out of Australia called SIR. that is perfect to wear to a dinner or Art Basel event this week. There is also a top and skirt with the same print available as well.

As I say, fashion is art in real life. Are you going to be in Miami this week?
