On Thursday, November 2nd, we had the most delightful invitation to celebrate the U.S. debut of Glen Grant’s 70-Year-Old Scotch whisky, Devotion, in the Miami Design District. Designer Lewis Miller created the most enchanting floral displays for a journey through the expressions (including the newly released 21-Year-Old). The unveiling of the distillery’s oldest expression to date was presented in a striking sculpture by artisan John Galvin, that is only available to seven decanters worldwide.
On Tuesday, October 10th, CEO & founder of It’s a 10 Haircare, Carolyn Aronson, was granted the key to the city of Miami at the brand’s 7th annual National Love Your Hair Day event!
Hosted at their headquarters in Liberty City, Miami-locals, celebs, brand fans, and more gathered to celebrate the holiday created by Aronson for people to love themselves, appreciate others and join together to impact change. The event was met with surprises at every turn including an award from Junior Achievement of South Florida, the announcement of a $100,000 donation to non-profit, Beauty Changes Lives, a special message from celeb’s Fat Joe & DJ Khaled to announce the launch of a new men’s line, Rewind it 10 and more.
And of course, with all of Carolyn’s give back efforts to the city of Miami and the nation over the years, the end of this magical evening was met with the biggest surprise of them all: the key to the city gifted by Senior Constituent Affairs Aide, Barbara Sweet-Kemp, on behalf of Mayor Francis Suarez.
