Hello Flair Miami readers! My name is Sabrina and I am the new Summer intern at Flair Miami. Originally an Orlando native, I came to Miami seeking excitement, city life and internship opportunities.

I’ve been blessed with the chance to work with Flair Miami for the summer. Blogging and fashion have always been passions of mine, so much that I created my own lifestyle blog, Sabrina Captures. I’m looking forward to everything I will learn by working with a well-seasoned blog like Flair Miami.

I chose to intern in Miami this summer because my hope is to live in this amazing city and work in advertising and public relations. I’m truly living the tourist Miami life on South Beach and as a result I’ve found myself falling in love with the city. There is life, creativity, and diversity every where you turn! From the little bit of exploring I’ve done I’m coming to appreciate the Miami beyond beach and party scenes.

My favorite locations have been the local hole-in-the wall restaurants and little art stores that I’ve found myself stumbling into. Juice and Java on Washington, Books and Books on Miracle Mile, and Pinocchio Italian Deli on 8th and Ocean are a few of the hidden gems I’ve come across.

Although I’ve enjoyed going out to new restaurants every night, that won’t be possible much longer on a college students budget. This has forced me to enjoy the more organic things about the city like workouts on the beach, walking along the Wynwood Walls, or stopping to watch a street act share their talent. With all that Miami has to offer I’m beginning to see that even in a big city like this it’s possible to find your niche. Blogging about all of it with Flair Miami might just be mine.

Let the three-day weekend begin!

PS: I’ve been looking for the perfect LBD for what feels like ages, because regardless of the reason or season, black is always back! And every girl needs a good LBD. Thank you Zara!

Oh and if you haven’t noticed, I just got braces. Eeeek! Oh well, hopefully I’ll learn to style those accordingly too. This was my first time wearing lipstick since I got them. I’m trying very hard to not look like I’m 12…

Today is a big day! It’s Flair Miami’s one year anniversary!

It seems like just yesterday I stumbled across the blog and contacted Vannia to write for her. Where does the time go?  Oh, and did I ever mention how I met Vannia? It was through Flair Miami! I can honestly say, I am so thankful for this blog and the journey it’s taken me on, the things I’ve learned, and the wonderful friend
I’ve made through it ;)

In my eyes, there are 3 types of Miami people:

  1. Those who LOVE the beach and go all year-round.
  2. Those who LIKE the beach and only go from May – July.
  3. Those who DISLIKE the beach and blame it on the sand.

Which one do you think I am? Take a guess?

Well, did you know that the official first day of Summer this year is Friday, June 21?  However, we all know that most Miami folks start going to the beach waaaaay before, which can be both awesome and pretty annoying. Even more so in the month of May…

Miguel and I went to the beach last weekend and we literally spent an hour and a half looking for parking. ( And yes I’m a Miami girl, I say literally! :))

So, in case you’re headed to the beach this weekend or happen to be planning a beach getaway; here are a few Summer essentials each under $50.

PS: If you’re headed to Miami Beach and want to find a good parking spot, be sure to arrive early and before the crazy mid-day crowds. If not, just count on spending $20+.

PSS: I SWEAR by wearing sunblock and my Acai Kiehls Moisturizer! I’ve been wearing it daily for years!

Happy Friday!

It’s crazy to think that Summer is around the corner. Where has this year gone?

Miami’s weather is slowly rising and the humidity is definitely not holding back. Ugh!

Nonetheless, there is definitely tons to look forward to this Summer… First things first, yours truly will be celebrating our one year anniversary! On May 19th, Flair Miami is turning 1! Woo hoo!

What will we be doing to celebrate, you ask? Well you’ll just have to stick around to find out. All I can say is that there’s lot’s of surprises and collaborations involved. So, throughout the next few weeks we’ll be revealing a little bit at a time. You can expect interviews with some awesome Miami blogger fashionistas, partnerships with local businesses and an awesome giveaway!

As for now, here are some of my five favorite shoes for this Summer. Which one do you think I should treat myself to on our birthday? ;)

Five Favorites: Shoes

Zara Vamp Heels / Tory Burch Flats/Zara Flat Jelly Sandals
TOMS Natural Crochet /Steve Madden Marlenee

I can officially say that I am finished with my Junior year of college! Bring on the senioritis! Anyway, my finals week was one of the most hectic weeks, and so I wanted to end the week right.  What better way to end it than with an intense yoga class taught by one of the most inspiring yoga teachers I know?

My yoga adventure began this past Sunday evening with two of my close friends. We heard Yoga Girl Rachel Brathen was going to be in town doing yoga workshops all over Miami, and we were on it in a heartbeat! We signed up for an “All You Can Handstand Class” and boy did they mean it when they said All You Can Handstand.

Rachel Brathen is a Swedish native living in Aruba where she teaches yoga at Manchebo Beach Resort and Spa.  Her yoga classes are a mix of Hatha and Vinyasa flow while incorporating breathing techniques, creative sequencing, and core work. Her goal for each class is to energize the body, cultivate a meditative consciousness, and give greater vitality and health. And I must say, her class did just that!

With the help of  Om’Echaye Wellness and Fitness Center and Love and Vegetables  vegetarian and vegan restaurant I definitely felt energized! Rachel is so talented, and inspiring, and I am so happy I was able to be taught by her.

The All You Can Yoga community brought us together.  People from different parts of town were there because of this one thing that we all have in common, a love for YOGA!
