Winning Summer: Beach Bum

Beaches are the universal symbol for sunny, warm weather and fun! No summer is complete with out a beach trip! You need a few days to just bum it out on the beach! Being a beach bum is definitely part of having a winning summer! Miami is one of my favorite places to do this... The people are beautiful, the weather is amazing, and the beaches are perfect for relaxing. There a few things to watch out for but don't worry I'll get you through them.

The hotels on South Beach can be a bit worn, but it's ok because you spend minimal time in there anyway. Don't stay more then two blocks away from the beach. You don't want to have to uber or park anywhere, that just creates headache. Also DO NOT eat on Ocean Dr. Everything is overpriced to the 10th degree and the food is never worth the price. There is a sandwich shop on 14th St and Collins Ct (the alley street behind Collins Ave) called La Sandwhicherie. The sandwiches are absolutely amazing and make sure you get the croissant bread and get the sauce. Definitely get the sauce.

The night scene on south beach is popping most of the time so you won't have to go far. You can actually spend your entire night walking up and down Ocean Drive and have a great time. Celebrities are always out and music is coming from all directions... Feel the vibes and let the spirit of Miami into your soul... Be open to new experiences and I promise you will have a time of your life.

In the morning make sure you watch the sunrise. The horizon is magic coming in to a new day. You should have stopped at publix on the way from the airport to purchase croissants and strawberries for breakfast. Oh yeah and champagne and cran-grapefruit ocean spray for the mimosas. And no matter what you do make sure you make time to stop by the beach the day you leave. It's important, go super early and as soon as you get there I promise you will know why I told you to go.

Swim Thick with Francie Maupin

Francie Maupin has been sketching fashions since her preteen years so it was only a matter of time before she put together a line of her own. She introduces The Diva Kurves Collection by premiering, Swim Thick, a line of swimsuits geared toward curvy women. In a market where the bar for plus sized swimwear has been dramatically raised by Monif C, Nakki Muli, and Cacique, Swim Thick is pushing its way into the mix to make sure all the curvy ladies are covered, literally. Swim Thick will cover standard sizes but will also offer options for ladies with bottom heavy proportions so that they will be able to find swimsuits that fit their curves just right. The extra focus on the ladies with extra curves definitely sets Swim Thick apart from other plus size swimwear. We dig in deeper about Miss Maupin and the release of Swim Thick: How did you start? What triggered you to start a swim line? It seemed like every time I would enter a store or boutique and ask, "where are the plus...

#LiveFashion with Stylist Jackie Turner

Fashion is built on foundation. In order to look good from the outside you have to start solid. Words of gold from Jackie Turner, an aspiring stylist out of Atlanta, fashion is her life... Turner is on a mission to become a personal stylist. Her goal is to help women who struggle with self esteem by showing them how to accent their true selves through fashion. Turner believes that when women are able to see themselves in a mirror how they see themselves in their heads, the positive visions, they can begin to accept and express who they are freely. Turner has had to over come obstacles in her own life and so her theories are from experience. Bullying and mean girls had been part of her every day struggle until she realized that she had a voice. Once she started to realize that she was in control of who she was and that she did not have to be what they told her she began to form her own personal style. Soon other people n...
