It’s Thursday morning. What’s the scene at your workplace?
Morning drop-offs at two different camps for the kids, then off to the office for a photoshoot. Come home to a house full of contractors (new home life), and then play chauffeur for all the kids to tennis lessons, and somehow still manage to cook something aesthetic in between it all.
What’s on the agenda for today?
Content creation and marketing review for Miansai and continued planning efforts for Style Saves’ 15th annual Back to School event, which is taking place in August.
Any bar or restaurant plans today, tonight, this weekend?
I love Casa Neos because it’s right on the water and the perfect spot when I want a good vibe without the full-on party scene. It feels elevated yet still incredibly relaxed. I usually order the branzino and sashimi. They’re both so fresh and always hit the spot.
How about a little leisure or culture?
For family fun, we always head to Tidal Cove Waterpark in Aventura and grab some ice cream afterward. My friends and I love attending shows at the Faena and spending the day at The Standard Spa.
Any weekend getaways?
Rincon, Puerto Rico, where we live for half the year. It’s a two-hour flight, and there’s great food and beautiful beaches. My husband’s really into surfing, and we realized that while the kids aren’t in grade school yet, it’s the perfect time to take advantage of the flexibility and live abroad for a bit. It’s been amazing. We found a place with a really chill vibe and a slower pace of life, but it’s still close enough to Miami if we need to head back. The kids are loving it, too — they do sailing and horseback riding, spend a lot of time at the beach, and ride their bikes all around town.
What was your last great vacation?
One of my favorite recent trips was to Tokyo with my husband. We stayed at Janu Tokyo in Azabudai Hills, a sister property to the Aman, located in this beautiful shopping district in Minato. My husband and I were basically on a mission to eat as much omakase and ramen as possible. We used Ramen Beast to track down the best spots across the city, and for omakase, nothing beats the experience we had in the old Tsukiji Outer Market. We were also lucky enough to go during cherry blossom season this time around, which made everything feel even more magical.
What’s a recent big-ticket purchase you love?
Alaia One Piece Medium Bag in Fishnet.
What store or service do you always recommend?
Microneedling by Skincare by Amy Peterson.
