Bienvenido a Miami

Spring Break, the vacation that lets you know summer is almost here. I never formally took a Spring Break vacation, I usually went home to visit the family. Friends of mine were going to your typical locations: Miami, Cancun, Cabo San Lucas etc. A did a little research to check out the best spots to vacay for Spring Break. My favorite? Miami.

Fontainebleau Miami Beach
A prime celebrity hot spot; Kanye West, Katy Perry, Miranda Kerr and even President Barack Obama have been seen here. Fontainebleau is a beautiful oceanfront resort with 1,504 rooms, 11 restaurants and lounges, shopping, and Lapis Spa; certainly enough to keep you busy during your stay! And pets are more than welcomed, I love that.

Mondrian South Beach
Another luxorious South Beach hotel that is a must stay! A little smaller than Fontainebleau (357 Rooms); Mondrian South Beach is a quiet setting for those who want to escape the Spring Break craziness. A retro flair interior that makes this hotel not too relaxed, but playful as well! Check it!

A perfect Single & Mingle package for Spring Break is their Be Social Package; which includes two drinks per day and priority access to all their restaurants and bars. Book it.

The Raleigh

LOVE the architecture here, definite Miami Art Deco. The Raleigh may be small, (105 rooms), but it's absolutely glamorous. I really can't get enough of their pool. Something I could consider Miami's hidden little gem.

Sweet Cupcakes

Lately I've been on a cupcake craze...I think it's because of the recent Grand Opening of Sprinkles in La Jolla. I've been about 3 times now with an average wait time (yes I said wait) of 30-40 mins. At one of our hotels, Surf & Sand Resort, we are offering Luv Cakes, Red Velvet cupcakes, for the Month of Romance. You can either order to have them delivered to your room or place an order for pick-up! At Café Granada in Rancho Bernardo Inn has new menu with 3 different cupcakes available for an afternoon pick-me-up! At each hotel these cupcakes are made by our Pastry Chefs! YUMMY. We can't forget the other cupcakes boutiques in SD! Another personal fav of mine is Heavenly Cupcakes on 6th. When I interned at JPR, anyone's bday would have dozen just from here! A friend of mine also told me to check out Babycakes in Hillcrest. I heard that place was delicious as well. On side note Yoshi, my Corgi, ate his first cupcake yesterday!

Primetime Emmys Roundup

Now that the Emmys night has concluded, here is my roundup post. We all know that Emmy's is big for their Red Carpet Fashion, but you really cannot forget the show either. This year's Emmys was very entertaining! Oh my did you see that opening number? One word: Amazing!



I would like to congratulate the BIG winners of last night's Emmys!
1. Jane Lynch for her win in Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series! No one else can play Sue Sylvester like you! Go Glee!

2. Modern Family for their win in Outstanding Comedy Series. I love the cast they work so well together. If you haven't seen an episode you should, it's pretty great!

LOST was robbed of some awards for sure. No wins for Ben or Jack!? BS! Conan didn't win Outstanding Variety, Music or Comedy series either?! BS!

Lastly loved the Red Carpet outfits, I'm sure you'll see the photos everywhere, here are my Top Favs:

Lea Michele in Oscar de la Renta
When does she not look fabulous on the Red Carpet? I don't think she's had a Red Carpet Bomb yet! Beautiful!


January Jones in Versace
I don't know why, but people on Yahoo hated this. I couldn't disagree more! She wanted to break away from her Retro Mad Men look and it worked in my book!


Jayma Mays in Burberry
LOVE HER. OMG she looked gorgeous!


Jane Lynch in Ali Rahami
Purple was hot on the Red Carpet! Jane is stunning in this dress


Neil Patrick Harris in Calvin Klein
He's pretty hilarious in How I Met Your Mother, he is looking rather dashing in his suit :)


Sarah Hyland in Pamella Roland
Her silk gown fits perfectly, loved her accessories!


Emily Deschanel in Max Azria Atelier
I don't watch Bones, but my roommate does! I know he can appreciate the graceful details of this purple gown!


Tracy Morgan
Last, but not least Tracy Morgan...man you silly!
