If there’s one thing the past year has brought into sharp relief, it’s how much first responders put on the line every day for our safety and security. They’re a comfort and quite literally a lifeline, especially in times like these. It’s no secret that fire-rescue professionals are mostly men, due largely to the grueling, physical nature of the work. But I’m a firm believer in women’s ability to do anything, so when I heard about Palm Beach Gardens Fire Rescue’s female firefighters/EMTs, I thought it was double cause for celebration: a thanks to the individuals who keep us all safe, and a tip of the hat to the ceiling breakers who smash traditional roles and set precedents for all women. On our gatefold cover this month are five of…

This past winter, milliner Teressa Foglia visited Palm Beach for the first time and fell in love. On the lawn outside The Colony Hotel, she took private appointments during a mad-hatterthemed trunk show for her eponymous brand. Alongside her partner, Tyler Hays Wild, Foglia has made her mark with custom-tailored hats. She now counts celebrities such as Cindy Crawford and Gerard Butler among her clientele. To purchase one of Foglia’s hats, which are made to last a lifetime and cost between $75 to $1,500, is to acquire a piece of wearable art. Think palm trees that have been burnt and embroidered into fedoras or oversized sun hats with floral chin straps in soft pink and yellow prints. It all started with a hat-making course Foglia signed up for while she…

When it comes to sugar, many people feel out of control. The good news? It’s not your fault. Proven to be highly addictive, sugar floods the brain with so much dopamine (the pleasure hormone) that we can’t help ourselves but to overeat and keep coming back for more. This addiction dates back to the beginning of mankind, when sugar was used as a means of survival. Our brain told our body to binge on the rare berry bush or beehive as a way to store fat for times when we’d need that reserve for fuel. Unfortunately, we never evolved out of this. While we no longer roam the earth hunting and gathering, we simply head to the pantry instead. Our endocrine/hormone system acts as our internal control center and is…

Rick Rose is the founder of Palm Beach Vacation Rentals but is best-known around town for his deep knowledge of Palm Beach history. In fact, the West Palm native is so well versed in all things Palm Beach that he penned a book on the subject; Palm Beach: The Essential Guide to America’s Legendary Resort Town became the leading guide to the island upon its initial 2017 publication (the second edition will hit shelves in October). As the official historian for the Worth Avenue Association, Rose leads weekly walking tours of the area that raise money for a charity of choice each season. In addition to being a member of the Historical Society of Palm Beach County, Flagler Museum, and Palm Beach Preservation Foundation, Rose serves on the board of…

In his younger years, Brinsley Matthews studied in Dublin, immersed in courses on art and antiques at Trinity College and Earlsfort Terrace. This experience has served him well in his current role as executive vice president of famed design firm Dorothy Draper & Company, and he still regularly returns to Ireland’s capital. “Then, as now, Dublin is a happening city,” he says. “The arts scene is amazing; indeed, one could say every person in Dublin is a character.” While Palm Beach is his Florida home, Matthews frequently visits the UK and Ireland. In Dublin, he stays at the Merrion Hotel, a group of eighteenth-century townhouses converted into a first-class establishment located steps from St. Stephen’s Green, a park surrounded by Georgian homes. VIBE Charm, conversation, and laughter are Dublin’s pulse.…

Spring has arrived in Palm Beach. Time to say goodbye to the cozy elegance of winter libations and let the spirit of vernal cocktails bloom. One magnificent springtime celebration is the Sakura Hanami, the Japanese practice of viewing the blossoming cherry trees. To welcome the season and honor the tradition, this month’s cocktail comes directly from the pages of my newly published book, Low-Proof Happy Hour, your guide to low-alcohol cocktails for times when you’d prefer to keep things light while still enjoying a proper drink. Enter: The Sakura Mule. Featuring a sweet, fragrant syrup of sakura blossoms, this elegant libation adds a soft, intoxicating zing to a mule. It is made low proof by substituting the vodka with shochu, a Japanese spirit distilled on a base of sweet potato,…

In 2004, Anis Lacerte decided to close her medical spa in Delray Beach and focus on creating a plant-based skin care and cosmetics line. Using the Ayurvedic, aromatherapy, and plant medicine training she received in France, Lacerte worked with chemists, plastic surgeons, cancer patients, and burn survivors to develop Boca Raton–based I’m Fabulous. “I’m Fabulous cosmetic skin care is free of the harsh and harmful chemicals that plague other skin care lines,” says Lacerte. “Most importantly, these products penetrate the skin to help create a balance within the cellular walls themselves. With regular use, the result is healthy, glowing skin that defies extrinsic aging.” For those hoping for spa results without stepping foot outside their abode, I’m Fabulous offers the At Home Med Spa ($799), which includes the Luxe Cleanser,…

To continue its tradition of showcasing art that moves the masses, New Wave Art Wknd will host Dominican American multidisciplinary artist Joiri Minaya in the third installation of its pioneering artist-inresidence program. Like Renzo Ortega and Estelle Mainsonett before her, Minaya will set up shop in a studio space in Rosemary Square beginning March 1, where she will cull inspiration from the sights, sounds, and people of downtown West Palm Beach. Minaya’s performative interventions and interactive installations investigate intrapersonal and societal relationships to the female body, with poignant commentary on identity, hierarchies, and multiculturalism’s impact on both.

All month long, the organization will present the National Portrait Gallery’s exhibition “Votes for Women: A Portrait of Persistence,” a moving display of the 80-year fight for women’s right to vote in the United States. Segmented into four prolific periods and including a section on the legacy of the Nineteenth Amendment, the exhibition sheds light on the trials and triumphs of the movement’s extraordinarily brave players. To keep the conversation going, the Historical Society will also host three virtual lectures on women’s issues, March 4, 11,…

This month, I’ve sourced the coolest, most creative accessories, decor, toys, and beauty essentials around—starting with slippers from Alameda Turquesa. Handmade in Portugal, these cozy slides can even be worn outside.

Outfit your bookshelves and tabletops with help from Sunday Candle Co., which specializes in candles made with 100-percent pure coconut and soy wax. And this season, as you check chores off those spring-cleaning to-do lists, prioritize your health with a bespoke face mask, complete with an attached chain.

When interior designer Bruce Bierman first walked into the penthouse apartment at 529 South Flagler in West Palm Beach, he very nearly made an about-face and walked right back out again. It wasn’t just the “frightening” 1980s decor in mauve and seafoam green, or even the interior walls blocking the view encompassing the Intracoastal, most of Palm Beach Island, and the ocean beyond. It was that some of the exterior walls were not on right angles to each other, says his husband, art dealer William Secord. “We almost didn’t get the apartment because Bruce didn’t like the angle of the wall in two of the rooms.” Since that fateful day 14 years ago, the couple has managed to marry art and geometry to create the perfect design for the thirtieth-floor…

1 Only use a professional charter broker. For luxury charters, it’s key to use a broker who’s a member of the International Yacht Brokers Association. They’ll have knowledge and experience of the yachts with the best crews, chefs, and toys, and can steer you to the best destinations. They’ll also be there if anything goes wrong. 2 Know how much it will cost. The weekly charter price is only a fraction of what you’ll pay. Add-on costs include fuel, docking, food and drink, tax, and tips for the crew. These can often add between 30 and 35 percent to the charter. 3 Plan your route. Some charter yachts are faster than others. If you have a wish list of beaches or ports you want to hit, make sure you know—with…

PURA VIDA Can fast food be healthy? In December, the husband-and-wife team of Jennifer and Omer Horev, owners of Miami-based Pura Vida cafés, opened their first Palm Beach County location in Rosemary Square. Inspired by their travels and Israeli-born Omer’s Mediterranean roots, the menu features all-day breakfast as well as an assortment of fresh juices, superfood smoothies, sandwiches, and organic açai bowls. “We want our dishes to be delicious, nutritious, and filled with rich, bright colors,” says Jennifer. “We are constantly inspired by the bounty of South Florida, using fresh and locally sourced ingredients when available.” (puravidamiami.com) CHARLIE & JOE’S AT LOVE STREET Joe Namath proved there was life after football when he partnered with developer Charles Modica to open Charlie & Joe’s at Love Street in Jupiter’s Inlet Village.…

For the past 10 years, Korinne Kubena Belock and her team at Urban Simplicity have been making people’s organizational dreams come true. Belock left her career spearheading campaigns and operations for politicos like Mike Bloomberg to help clients in New York and Palm Beach organize their homes, workspaces, and lives. Below, she shares her best strategies for boosting the efficiency of your pantry and fridge. (urbansimplicity.co) PBI: Within the fridge, why and how should you separate food into categories? Belock: A main way to maintain fridge organization and to prevent overbuying at the grocery store is to create categories. Examples include fresh fruits, veggies, meats, cheeses, condiments, breakfast, beverages, and leftovers. But don’t stop there! Create categories within condiments, too, such as dressings and everyday-use items like mustard, as well…
