Miami Beach just got a little more Mediterranean. ☀️🌊

The newly unveiled Solei Beach Club at Kimpton Surfcomber is redefining the South Beach experience with oceanfront cabanas, coastal-Spain-inspired cuisine, handcrafted cocktails, and an atmosphere that feels straight out of Ibiza or the French Riviera. The debut was celebrated during the hotel's exclusive "Sleepover at Surf" event, giving guests a first look at Miami's newest luxury beach destination.

From fresh seafood and shareable Mediterranean plates to sunset cocktails and chic beachfront lounging, Solei blends effortless sophistication with the vibrant energy that makes Miami Beach iconic. Designed as both a hotel amenity and a destination for locals and visitors alike, the 11,500-square-foot beach club offers a stylish escape where every day feels like a vacation.

If your summer mood board includes sunshine, ocean views, exceptional food, and Riviera-inspired glamour, Solei Beach Club deserves a spot at the top of your list.

✨ WOMEN WE LOVE WEDNESDAY ✨

Some women build businesses. Nancy Berger builds communities.

This week, we're celebrating the Founder and Chief Connector of Start With A Good (S.W.A.G.), whose ability to bring extraordinary women together has made her one of the most influential relationship-builders in business. Through thoughtfully curated experiences, meaningful introductions, and a passion for helping others succeed, Nancy has created a powerful network where connection becomes opportunity.

Most recently, Nancy hosted her largest Power Retreat to date at Pendry Natirar, welcoming more than 50 accomplished women from beauty, fashion, law, retail, private equity, media, and entrepreneurship for three days of inspiration, collaboration, rejuvenation, and authentic connection. The retreat served as a reminder of what happens when ambitious women gather with intention: ideas flourish, partnerships form, and lifelong friendships begin.

Nancy's career has always been rooted in the belief that success is amplified when shared. Through S.W.A.G., she continues to create spaces where women can learn, grow, support one another, and unlock new possibilities together.

Here's to the women who connect us, champion us, and remind us that one meaningful introduction can change everything.

✨ The future of fashion is already on the runway.

Celebrating a decade of creativity, innovation, and industry excellence, the Miami Fashion Institute recently marked its 10th anniversary with a visionary graduate showcase that spotlighted the next generation of fashion talent. From bold design perspectives to impeccable craftsmanship, the collections reflected the passion, artistry, and forward-thinking vision shaping fashion's future. ✨

More than a runway show, the event served as a powerful reminder of what happens when education, mentorship, and creativity come together. As emerging designers stepped into the spotlight, they showcased not only their technical skills but also the unique voices and stories that will help define the next era of fashion.

Here's to 10 years of inspiring talent—and to the designers who are just getting started. 👏

In April, I visited Dr. Akis Ntonos, DNP, at Aion Aesthetics in NYC. I shared my Aura Scan results—and if I’m being honest, I walked into that appointment thinking it would be routine. Maintenance. A little Botox, a quick check-in, and I’d be on my way.
