Our favorite time of year is here… Swim Week! I don’t know about you, but I am beyond excited for this years swim week (not only because of the amazing designers but also because it’s my first year going!). Where do I begin? Wildfox, L Space, and Luli Fama…here I come!
Since I am in the swim week spirit, I thought it’d be fun to put some outfits together, so here you have them!
What will you be wearing at this years Swim Week?
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 ;)
(Giselle: Dress- Sabo Skirt, Shoes – Zara. Vannia: Dress – H&M, Shoes – Shoedazzle, Accesories: Aldo & Michael Kors.)
We celebrated with fun outfits, cupcakes and balloons, but that wasn’t the end of it! This week we will be having a surprise giveaway AND on May 31st, we will be throwing our very first soirée! Stay tuned for all the details. :)
Thank you to all the readers who have been following us! Here’s to a fun and successful year of fashion, fitness, food, and fun!

I don’t know about you, but I am all about florals, and this spring the floral trend is B-A-C-K.
Not sure how to style spring florals? Well you’ve come to the right place! I’ve put together three outfits each including a different floral piece. One “girly” floral, one “edgy” floral, and one “sophisticated” floral.
Which one are you? ;)

We went, and we conquered!
Flair Miami was excited to participate in the grand opening of H&M’s first official Miami store! A few months back we wrote about the pop-up shop in Meridian, but the wait is finally over! H&M’s flagship store located in the historic Lincoln Theatre is officially here, the store opened its doors to the public Nov. 8 at noon.
With over 24,000 square feet of retail space, H&M offers two floors of chic and cheap European-style finds. Who wouldn’t want to raid the store?
From $5 accessories to $10 dresses, H&M was filled with hundreds of people ready to shop till they dropped (and someone actually did, even a rescue came by to get them)! Yikes :(
If for some reason you were unable to participate in the opening of the South Beach location, you still have a chance to be a part of the grand opening in Aventura Mall. The store is scheduled to open before the end of the year!
As we all know, Fridays at Flair Miami are completely dedicated to FASHION! I have to admit, reading, talking, and writing about fashion is probably one of my favorite things, and this ‘Fashion Friday’ I’ve decided to dedicate to some of my personal fashion favorites.
I’ve put together three outfits, one day time outfit, one work place outfit, and one night time outfit. I also set a budget for each outfit, the day time being least expensive and the night time being most expensive, ranging from $150 to $350.
Here are some of my fashion favorites for day, work, and night:
1. DAY TIME OUTFIT UNDER $150
Even though chilly days in Miami are unpredictable, I still can’t help but love chunky knit sweaters. Maybe it is because being able to wear one is something that rarely happens. I also love how gold and black look together, I think it gives such an edgy feel to the very preppy knit sweater. Oh, and lets not forget the amazing Tom Ford look alikes! What a steal!
Grand total: $139
2. WORK PLACE OUTFIT UNDER $250
What I love about this outfit is that two very popular fall trends have been incorporated – the oxblood and the spots. I think this would be a very fun/fashion forward office look (well, depending on where you work ;) ).
Grand Total: $240
3. NIGHT TIME OUTFIT UNDER $350.
One word – Metallics. Metallics are a great way to give an outfit the perfect edge with out over doing it. Since the main focus is obviously the dress, I chose more subtle accessories, and to top it off a great oxblood lipstick and nail polish for a little pop of color. I love this and I think it’s perfect for a night out. You will definitely make a statement in this outfit!
Grand Total: $345
So there you have it! Some of my personal fashion favorites. Which is your favorite outfit?
As excited as I was to visit the new H&M store in Miami Beach, I was also scared of the lines and crowds.
Nevertheless, I enlisted another brave soul and took on the challenge. We got there at around 11:30 am. There was definitely a line, but luckily it wasn’t as long as I had expected. The first 200 people got a nice scratch-off incentive for patiently waiting. Some got $5, $10, $20, to even $50 off. (I only got $10. Boo!)
The store was scheduled to open its doors to the public at noon. But after talking to several shoppers, we learned that some had been in line since 9am! Talk about a passion for fashion!
As expected, their merchandise was fashionable and affordable.
And as always, I went a little crazy when I saw the fun accessories and bikinis! Some tops were as low as $4.95!
I tried to not have shoppers remorse after the fact, and to not be selfish with the limited XS sizes.
And this was the damage. Summer here we come!
Still haven’t gotten a chance to go visit? The shop is located at 1669 Meridian Avenue. The store hours are Monday – Thursday 11 am to 10 pm, Friday – Saturday 11 am to midnight and Sunday noon to 10pm. Check it out!
PS: Have you been wondering why H&M doesn’t offer online shopping? Wonder no more. The company is currently working on it… I’ll be sure to keep you posted when it becomes available. Yeay H&M!
The wait is finally over! Miami’s frugal fashionistas can now rejoice. We officially have our very own H&M! The store is located at 1669 Meridian Avenue and is scheduled to open its doors to the public June 1st at noon. You better believe I’ll be there – line and all! Today, the store had a press sneak peek, but unfortunately I was swamped at work and couldn’t attend. Not sure if reporters, photographers, and bloggers were able to shop just yet, but there’s no question about that tomorrow.
This specific location is only a pop-up shop scheduled to be here until September 2012. As the official home for the long-awaited H&M store will be the theater in Lincoln Road. According to Marybeth Schmitt, U.S. Spokesperson for H&M, the long-time requests of Miami fans is what encouraged them to open a few months in advance. The pop-up store is approximately 3,800 square feet, while the Lincoln Road location will be over 20,000 square feet. Can’t wait till that baby opens. Well, at least this is way closer than the Palm Beach Gardens location. If you plan on attending the grand opening, be sure to get there early. Oh, and don’t worry about them running out of stock. I hear that they’ll be more than prepared, as they’ve scheduled a re-stock delivery every day…
