VIKTOR & ROLF FRAGRANCE LAUNCH

On Friday night, Viktor & Rolf hosted a launch party for their new fragrance Tiger Lily Flowerbomb. The Sky Terrace of the Miami Beach Edition served as the perfect backdrop among bushes of tiger lilies, countless photo ops & a 15 minute drone show that took over the night sky.

The event was reminiscent of the scent – a summer oasis of sweet tiger lilies. The guest list included every influential influencer from the east coast and even brought out the face of the fragrance, Emily Ratajowski, to snap pictures with guests.

Thank you V&R and Industria Creative for having me be part of such a beautiful night!

 

GORDAN RAMSAY’S HELL’S KITCHEN GOP

Miami’s foodie scene just took a elevated step forward with the edition of Michelin-starred chef and television personality Gordan Ramsay’s Hell’s Kitchen. Inspired by the hit television series, the two level restaurant is located in Downtown Brickell in the Met Square Complex.

A grand opening for the books complete with champagne towers, specialty drinks, raw bar & passed bites of Ramsay’s signature dishes including his coveted Beef Wellington. We drank, ate & danced it all off till the very end with send-off goody bags courtesy of Ramsay & Hexclad.

Lacoste x Soho Pool House

On Saturday July 15th, we celebrated summer with an afternoon hosted by Lacoste at the new Soho Pool House. Temperatures were high but the french inspired wine & spritzes kept us cool and provided us with the perfect afternoon by the pool.

PASTIS MIAMI GRAND OPENING

Restauranteurs Stephan Starr & Keith McNally hosted the grand opening of the year with a A+ guest list that included all the who’s who of Miami’s nightlife / hospitality scene. The iconic French brassiere that started in NYC’s meatpacking district & later famed throughout seasons of Sex & the City made it’s way to Miami’s streets of Wynwood & I was so honored to supply the french music & vibes for the night.

Accompanied by a live Jazz band, french indie pop & dance was on the playlist, while endless pours of champagne & macaroons filled the room. Everything from decor to food was tres chic! Special thanks to my friends at the @wearethesecretsauce for having me on such a fun & festive night.

AERIE x KELSEA BALLERINI

I kicked off the launch of Spring with Aerie at the Goodtime Hotel and it was exactly that. Aerie created “The Happy Spot” as the brand’s mission of sharing positive messages across social media to help create a safe and happy place for content consumption.

On the hotel’s popular pool deck, the brand designed a full playground of instagrammable  activations, including mini golf, swings & nail art stations. I provided the feel-good vibes before Kelsea Ballerini took to the stage to perform, Keepin’ It Real, a song she wrote exclusively for Aerie to inspire the Aerie community to love and let their REAL selves shine.

Aerie also kicked off its PSAs (Positive Scrolling Always) with its partners and its community sharing authentic, positive, unfiltered advice on how to control your time on social media, the importance of paying it forward and focusing on one’s own mental health.

Nothing but positive vibes all around… thank you for having me & keeping me smiling all throughout the day.

PEGASUS WORLD CUP INVITATIONAL 2022

There’s only one time a year when obnoxiously big hats & puffy dresses are encouraged in So Florida & it’s for its premier annual derby the Pegasus World Cup Invitational at Gulfstream Park.

I’ve been lucky enough to DJ this special event since it’s inception in 2017 & every year truly gets better! Back performing for VIP ticket holders in the Flamingo Room, this year the room collaborated with Faena’s cabaret show “Tryst” for small performances in between DJ sets & culinary provided by the highly anticipated LA transplant, Delilah. Of course, the room is also setup for live viewing of the race… but let’s face it, we’re really only there for the music & drinks!

The day long event started at 10am for me & lasted way until sundown when the derby turns into a full on concert on the track. This year’s line-up was a 90’s throwback with performances by Ja Rule, Lil Kim & Mase. Couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful day with the weather dropping down to 60 degrees (the wind however, was not favorable to hats!)

Thank you to 1/st Entertainment for adding me to the line-up, already looking forward  to (and planning attire for) next year!

10th ANNUAL BOYS & GIRLS CLUB TOY DRIVE

There are certain events that have become an annual staple for me, the Holiday Toy Drive benefiting the Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade has become one of them. Now celebrating its 10th year and has become bigger than I’ve ever witnessed. It’s purpose – to raise money & toys to gift underserved local municipalities in our community during the holidays.

I’m so thankful to be asked to be part of this charitable event every year. This year it drew over 700 guests, always at the beautiful & iconic Biltmore Hotel. The location of this event particularly draws in friends I grew up with, who I usually wouldn’t see throughout the year, making it extra special to be able to catch up with them during the most festive time of the year.

I have to particularly thank the mastermind & ringleader of this event, one of my oldest & dearest friends, Louis Fonseca for putting so much heart & effort into this event year after year. See you next year!

AMAZON HOLIDAY PARTY

Leave it to Amazon to put together one of the most entertaining & interactive holiday parties I’ve ever been to. Hosted at The Temple House Miami, known for its high arched ceilings and big white walls, creating the perfect canvas for 360-degree projection mapping. There was no shortage of branding, from floor to ceiling & instagramable vignettes at every corner.

I DJ’d from the mezzanine overlooking the entire space while playing a mix of party classics & exclusive Amazon music holiday tracks throughout the night. The night was full of games, giveaways & of course, lots of dancing!
