Yesterday evening, I was fortunate enough to be invited to an exclusive gathering to attend the grand opening of the chicest new boutique to hit the Miami fashion scene. Situated on the corner of North Miami Avenue and NE 34th Street, the new ISA boutique is a welcomed addition to the bourgeoning Midtown Miami neighborhood.

We scoured Madison Avenue to bring you the best of the best. Here are our top picks.

Nancy Batchelor is a full time realtor at the office of Esslinger Wooten & Maxwell in South Florida. In 2010, Nancy’s sales volume totaled $32 million, placing her 15th in real estate sales in all of Miami-Dade County. She highly regarded in the real estate world.

Nancy is also extremely involved in the Miami community, supporting the arts and other local philanthropies in the area. She and her husband, Jonathan Batchelor, along with Nicole & Edgar Lozano, are currently the co-chairs for the 2011 Miami Science Museum Galaxy Gala. The event will take place on Saturday, March 26 at the new JW Marriott Marquis hotel in downtown Miami.

If anyone knows how to throw a party, it’s Paolo Zampolli. He’s known for throwing some of the most extravagant celebrations in the city that always attract the who’s who of NYC–celebrities, socialites, billionaires, and of course, supermodels.

This Thursday, Paolo Zampolli will once again take New York City by storm as he celebrates his 41st birthday with a party at the trendy Provocateur lounge in New York City.

On March 4, 1931, at exactly 1:15 p.m., Mr. René-Alfred Chauvot officially patented the reverso timepiece at the INPI (National Industrial Property Institute) in Paris. 80 years later, the “wristwatch which can slide on its base and flip over on itself” is still one of the most coveted watches in the entire world.

Whoever said that you couldn’t live in paradise hasn’t seen the most recent property to be listed by The Jills. The Miami property, a 30,000-square-foot estate that sits on two acres on the private island of Indian Creek, can now be yours…for $60 million.
