A December To Remember

Holiday songs can be heard no matter where you go during this time of year. Of all of them, I share the most sentiment with the song “It’s The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year.” I think about the bright lights twinkling all over town and the perfect reason to embrace my love of shopping and fashion. It’s a time for giving and receiving.

For Floridians, a drop in the temperature is another reason to celebrate and shop. And because we finally have an opportunity to bundle up a bit, you’ll want to check out fashion that’s as aesthetically pleasing as it is functional during this season with our “Fashion Is Art” editorial.

If you are a bold shopper braving the malls during this time of year in search of stylish clothing and gifts, I tip my hat to you. Many holiday shoppers won’t dare to venture to their favorite stores, as they’d rather sit at home in their pajamas and order gifts to be delivered hassle-free. Personally, I still prefer the rush of beating the crowds and taking home curated gifts that very day. But for this reason, many stores are changing with their customers to offer experiences you can’t find online. We take a look at what they’re doing in “Reinventing Retail.”

For the special people in your life who deserve something that won’t ever go out of style, give the gift of travel. Our feature will have you packing up in order to follow in Charles Darwin’s footsteps on a memorable cruise through the Galápagos Islands.

Once gift giving and shopping is over, it’s time to ring in the New Year. Personally, I like a nice Chinese dinner in front of my TV while the Times Square ball drops. But if you prefer a night out and about in Palm Beach to ring in 2018, we’ve rounded up the many chic parties to attend for popping Champagne in style. Find our New Year’s Eve guide.

No matter what is on your wish list this December or how you celebrate the New Year, I hope it brings you joy, and that you all find peace and happiness in the coming year.  Thank you for a wonderful 2017!
