Can you believe it’s only a few weeks until Christmas? The holidays can be a stressful, yet rewarding time. To help simplify your hunt for the best gifts this year, I compiled some of my favorites for this week’s Haute Holiday List:
With all the chaos, the one thing I love to do to relax from it all is have a delicious brunch. You can’t holiday shop on an empty stomach, which is why I head to The Ritz Carlton on South Beach. They just re-launched their brunch menu full of fabulous food….yummy!
Michael Shnayerson’s book My Song is a great idea whether you’re looking for a gift for the bookworm or music lover in your family. The Vanity Fair writer does a phenomenal job of narrating the life of music icon Harry Belafonte.
Here in Miami, humidity is still an issue during the holidays, which is why I love Alfaparf’s Semi Di Lino Diamond “Extraordinary All-in-1 Fluid” for my hair. The shine lasts for twenty-four hours, protects from UVA & UVB rays, holds against humidity and reduces blow dry time for when I’m in a hurry.
One of my gifts to all of you is my holiday app, Lea’s 12 Days of Christmas at https://a.pgtb.me/N4tCDV. The web savvy social media design team at S.Rayer Associates made it for me.
I love having fun holiday music to play while I decorate the tree. Ariana Grande’s Snow in California is so cute, and she knows what it’s like to have a warm, sunny, South Florida Christmas.
My final choice is sure to be a great “fit” for you. Genetic Denim jeans are perfect to wear while I’m out gift shopping, and can easily transition to a nighttime look if I have to go to a holiday party thereafter.
Happy Holidays!
Lea
