MIAMI SWIM WEEK 2015 RECAP

Last week after I returned from my Middle  East trip, I came back to LA for a day, unpacked, repacked, and headed to Miami for Swim Week! It was my first Miami Swim Week experience and I had the best time. I attended the 6 Shore Road runway show and hosted their after party, and went to Mikoh, Luli Fama Swimwear, Frankies Bikini’s, Acacia, and Indah.

JOE’S STONE CRAB, MIAMI

I’ve been to Peter Lugers, Mastros, Ruth’s Chris, and so many of the “best” steakhouses out there, but more than one person swore to me that Prime 112 is the best steak in the country and better than all my favorites, example: Mastros. This is definitely not true. I went during a hurricane on a Friday night, so all the reservations were backed up, the place was jam packed, and the kitchen was slammed and also backed up as well. With that being said, I’m not making excuses for them, but I kind of am, because I wasn’t impressed with the food. Not everything was bad, but read below to see my reviews.
