et the record show: Kevin Bacon brings the party — even when he doesn’t mean to.

It’s the morning after our cover shoot at downtown LA’s Hotel Per La, and the ageless actor and I are midway through a morning Zoom session when the festivities begin. Thanks to the new iOS update, virtual balloons start to rain down around him. Then comes the confetti. Now we’re just missing cake, champagne, and Kenny Loggins.

“It’s the weirdest thing that’s happened to me lately,” the Golden Globe winner declares, protesting that he didn’t plan on turning our chat into a celebration. Sure, sure.

Perhaps Apple had a premonition of what was to come because, days later, after a nearly four month stand-off, the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike finally came to an end. Hollywood as a whole rejoiced, but no one did so, in my opinion, as perfectly or poignantly as Bacon. The 65-year-old actor didn’t need to tell the world of his happiness: he showed them by sharing a video of himself, alone in an empty barn, clad in cowboy boots and worn denim, recreating his iconic dance from Footloose, the film that made him a household name, with the caption “Strike over! @sagaftra.”

Bacon’s post was, no doubt, both tongue-in-cheek and strategic. After all, 2024 marks the 40th anniversary of said Oscar-nominated movie, which revolves around Ren McCormack, a teenager from Chicago who moves to a small American town and attempts to overturn a ban on dancing. The overwhelming response to his TikTok only serves to prove that Footloose has withstood the test of time, steadily and surely convincing filmgoers to “kick off their Sunday shoes” since 1984.

Yet, with this video, Bacon was not only openly having fun, but also attempting to build some buzz for the greater good. Despite being temporarily thwarted by the strike, his plan to roll out a new initiative around the film’s milestone anniversary in support of his non-profit, SixDegrees.Org, remains intact. Come Giving Tuesday — a global day of philanthropy, held each year on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving — his 501c3, which supports youth empowerment, justice, equality, and sustainability, will be launching “BKxKB.” Here, essentials inclusive of snacks, books, writing tools, water, and more, will be provided to those in need, housed in nifty and useful backpacks. The goal is to create at least 40,000 of such kits, which he intends to be “bright spots in somebody’s day.”

This is the non-profit’s most recent effort, but Bacon has been steadily giving back via SixDegrees.Org since 2007, when he founded the organization after ceasing his overall dislike of the six degrees of Kevin Bacon concept (a parlor game created in 1994 by three Albright College students based on an interview he had given that same year when he mentioned that he had “worked with everybody in Hollywood or someone who’s worked with them.” In the game, players challenge each other to arbitrarily choose an actor and connect them to Bacon. It’s a nod to “six degrees of separation,” which posits that any two people are six or fewer acquaintance links apart.) It is a concept that, over time, Bacon clearly grew to love.

“I was hitting a spot in my life. I was reading the newspaper, looking at stuff going on in the world, and feeling overwhelmed with the issues. When I was young, I didn’t read the paper unless it had something about me in it, but when I got older and had children, I started to have more of an interest in the world and the issues we were facing, such as social justice and hunger, and I would get overwhelmed. I don’t remember if it was my wife

or someone else, but [this person] said something that impacted me: taking action can be an antidote to helplessness.”

He was already on a path to purpose, mulling over what philanthropic effort he could work on, when he opened his refrigerator and saw the late Paul Newman’s smiling face on a jar of pasta sauce. “I knew Paul, and was admiring of the charitable work that he did over the course of his life, and with it, the ability to take Newman’s Own and make it into something specific, taking his love of food and turning it into a force for good. He raised hundreds of millions of dollars for charity just by selling these products. So, I thought, What do I have that’s branded with me? I didn’t know exactly how to do this; it was all new to me. I tried SixDegrees.com, which was not available. And I know that it’s hard to imagine, but in 2007, the internet — and certainly social media — was relatively new to me. It was a world I didn’t know.”

When a friend suggested he create a .org, he had no idea what that even meant, or how to acquire one. But he was a quick learner, proving that there was something behind the beloved six degrees concept: he would meet someone at an event, who would recommend he speak to someone else.

This led to him launching his non-profit at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival.

But first, he had to have a focus. “I’ve learned that if you are a celebrity, or somebody with a lot of money, and you want to support a cause, you’re probably better off picking one because then, your messaging is very clear.

That has been both a blessing and a curse because there’s so much need and many things that could be better about the world we live in,” he notes, admitting, “Up until launching SixDegrees.Org, I had been showing up at charity events, making donations across the board to all different things. But again, I had to find a focus, and for me, it was connectivity. [There are] a lot of organizations that we support — we’re into grassroots mom and pop sort of organizations that don’t have a huge infrastructure behind them — focused on a bunch of different causes.”

The non-profit is built on the principle that everyone needs connection. It provides unsolicited grants to partners and individuals that seek to make change to their local communities; it curates convener campaigns to unite various catalysts to maximize their collective impact; and it uses the curated podcast he started this year, “Six Degrees with Kevin Bacon,” to tell the stories of those who are also trying to make change. Thus far, he’s spoken to actors like Matthew McConaughey, Mark Ruffalo, and Alexandra Daddario, as well as singers Thomas Rhett and Jewel, and New York Times best-selling author Phoebe Robinson, about their philanthropic efforts — social networking with a social conscience, as it were.

“I shoot the breeze with [the celebrity I’m speaking to for the] first half of the podcast, then we move on to the cause they have focused on, and then, to the person who runs their organization, or one they’re affiliated with. We give them a microphone to talk about the work they’re doing,” he says, sharing, “I like to talk to them about what it is that steered them toward philanthropic work. The podcast is a reflection of the work we’re doing with SixDegrees.Org.” The 118-day strike gave Bacon time to assess how much still needed to be done, hence the new building kits initiative.

“At our board meetings, we always talk about how to quantify impact, but really, there’s no tangible number. I can tell you that we’ve certainly made an impact since we’ve grown the organization, but we try our best not to focus on a dollar amount because that’s not our focus,” he maintains, noting that he’d rather look at building awareness instead. During the pandemic, this was done via a viral campaign called #IStayHomeFor, based on the realization that going out and mingling could have a devastating result on loved ones. Social media became a powerful tool, where someone might say ‘I stay home for my grandmother’ or ‘I stay home for my sister-in-law, who’s a nurse.’

“You can’t quantify the monetary amount that came from those who took part, but you can say it had an impact,” he notes. [The world agrees: he @hauteliving HAUTE LIVING 17

received the 2010 Joel Siegel Award from the Critics Choice Association in recognition of not only his outstanding film career, but also his charitable work with the organization.] He adds, “I don’t think we’re going backward.

People are listening to the podcast, and I [find it rewarding] when they come up to me and say, I didn’t know about this issue’ or I didn’t know about this organization.’ That’s something to feel good about.”

evin Bacon is lucky, and he knows it.

He is one of the few thespians who has had a different kind of creative outlet during the actor’s strike, which started on July 14. He’s musically minded in many ways and has a band with elder brother Michael — the appropriately-named The Bacon Brothers. They’ve released nine studio albums, the most recent being 2022’s Erato, with a sound they describe as “forosoco” (which also happens to be the title of their first album) a fusion of folk, rock, soul, and country.

“I’ve been lucky in that I have the band,” he admits, noting, “And while it’s not acting, it’s a performance. The creation of music, writing songs, getting in front of people and playing is creatively very satisfying to me.

And as it turns out, we had a lot of show dates during the strike, and we’ve also been recording an album. The combination of those two things has been a godsend creatively.”

If The Bacon Brothers hadn’t existed, I think Sir Bacon would still have been fine. He has a farm in northwestern Connecticut where he and wife of 35 years, actress yra Sedgwick, raise horses, pigs, alpacas, chicken, and miniature goats — the latter making for an extremely gratifying audience.

He shares (whilst wearing a red plaid button-down flannel that only serves to amplify the farmer vibe) that he sings to said goats — an anniversary present for Sedgwick — and chooses songs he thinks they would like. Sometimes, his wife joins in, as well as their son, 34-year-old Travis, and daughter, 31-year-old Sosie. o matter what happens in his career, evin Bacon will always be A-O . He’s been acting for the better part of his life — first as “Chip” in the 1978 comedy National Lampoon’s Animal House — and is now embarking upon his fifth decade in the industry. It’s a monumental feat.

His career has leaped from strength to strength since he left his native Philadelphia to become the youngest student at Circle in the Square Theatre in ew York, which led to major roles — one of which, Footloose, is responsible for launching his career. He has never looked back but has always maintained that same hunger for his craft as he had at the very beginning, a teenager with his parents’ support, hoping to take a major bite of the Big Apple.

“It’s who I’ve always been. I was a driven kid, with a hunger in my belly and a strong work ethic. My parents always believed that you chop wood, carry water, roll up your sleeves, and get it done. You work. [That’s what I’ve taught my kids], and now, they feel the same way. And so does my wife. We’re not bad at being leisurely, but we all have a bit of a workaholic spirit in us, which the strike and the pandemic have certainly pointed out.

We’ve been bouncing off the walls, wanting to do what we love to do, which is hit marks, put on costumes, sit in the makeup chair, and say lines.

This is what we love to do.”

His point is made through his extensive resume. Bacon has truly done it all, testing out different genres instead of sticking with just one tried-and-true favorite — everything from action thrillers and romantic comedies to heavy dramas and even the occasional musical. Some of the most notable include She’s Having a Baby; The Big Picture; Tremors; Flatliners; Frost/Nixon; Crazy, Stupid, Love; X-Men: First Class; Patriots Day Oliver Stone’s JFK Rob Reiner’s A Few Good Men; The River Wild, for which he received a Golden Globe Award nomination; Murder in the First, for which he was named Best Actor by the 18 HAUTE LIVING hauteliving.com

Critics Choice Association and received Best Supporting Actor nominations from The Screen Actors Guild; Ron Howard’s award-winning Apollo 13; Clint astwood’s Academy Award nominated film Mystic River; and The Woodsman, for which he received an Independent Spirit Award nomination.

He made his directorial debut in 1996 with Losing Chase, which was honored with three Golden Globe Award nominations. It was followed by the 2005 film Loverboy and several episodes of his wife’s hit show, The Closer.

Small screen efforts include Joey [n e Jill] Soloway’s Amazon series I Love Dick, which earned him a Golden Globe nod for Best Actor; his wife’s directorial debut, Story of A Girl, and her sophomore effort, Space Oddity; the Fox series The Following, and many more. There’s also stage work: he made his Broadway debut in 1983 with Sean Penn in Slab Boys, and starred in the 198 production of Joe Orton’s Loot, followed by off-Broadway shows such as Album, Poor Little Lambs, and Getting Out. In 2002, he starred in An Almost Holy Picture, a one-man show written by Heather McDonald.

For a guy who has worked since he was 20, singing to goats — however entertaining — is not enough. “I can’t wait to get back to work,” he admits.

Though he doesn’t share it, I know he had several films in the can pre-strike — including MaXXXine, the third and final installment in A24’s first major horror franchise films the Blumhouse action horror series The Bondsman; the fourth installment of the Beverly Hills Cop series; Beverly Hills Cop: Axel Foley; Legendary Pictures’ The Toxic Avenger; and etflix’s Leave the World Behind.

Now, speaking about his longevity in the industry, he says, “The passage of time is always a combination of mind-boggling and disturbing.”

As much as he’s glorified, and as much as six degrees of evin Bacon has stuck, he assures me that his career is much like any other. “There’s been so many ups and downs that I’m cynical about things. People will find it hard to believe since, from the outside, it seems like I’ve had so much success, but I’m always waiting for the other shoe to drop, in a funny kind of way. There’s been a tremendous number of misfires along the way, creatively, box office- or career-wise. The hard part for me is to stop and enjoy the moment when something is good, when a film does well, or when people respond to something in a positive way. Both yra and I have to remember to do that.

It’s hard to live in the moment sometimes, but we’re trying to learn how to be more self-aware. It’s something I’ve worked on, where I’ll just stop, try to learn, and take an assessment of why I’m feeling that way.”

Frequent meditation helps, as does grounding time with his family, be it at the Connecticut farm or at home in Los Angeles. “The simple act of creating a meal and sharing it together, whether it’s with family or friends, is a process that can be joyful,” he insists.

Another assist is refusing to look back, literally and figuratively. The latter, he’s still working on — the sting of any kind of failure for a professed workaholic isn’t the easiest thing to get over — but the former is a breeze.

The only one of his films he’s even seen again in the past 30 years was Tremors, and only because he was trying to develop it into a TV series.

“People don’t believe this, but I don’t go back and look at [my films]. I can’t; I don’t know why.” Instead, when he thinks about his career and various projects, it’s less about the project itself and more about where he was in his life at the time — similar to a visual history of his life, love, and family. “ yra and I will say, Oh yeah, that’s when we were in Chicago doing that movie. You remember that funny place we stayed at ’ or, Oh yeah, you were pregnant,’ or, Remember when we had lunch with so-and-so ’ Whatever it is, it’s not about the movie itself,” he explains.

It occurs to me that, to outsiders, his life might seem strange. After all, it’s been spent predominantly in the public eye. He can document his most important moments with a visible timeline. But Bacon counters that, to him, this is his normal and it would be weirder to live a life without it, especially

now after all these years, which I also understand.

“I’ve been doing this for so long and have been in the public eye for so long that I can’t imagine life without it,” he confesses. “And really, I’ve learned how to navigate it so that I don’t get too caught up in my own hype.

I try not to value my own self-worth based on too many external things, like fame. Is my life normal? No, it’s not. It’s weird to others, but not weird to me anymore, because this is all I do. It’s hard to explain what it feels like, but it’s 99 percent great.”

Going back to that self-awareness, he says he looks at it as such whenever he’s feeling down, and reminds himself to be grateful. “I try to practice as much gratitude as I can, knowing that I have a job where I do what I love. I practice gratitude for the marriage and kids I have, and for being healthy.”

Which is the perfect time to segue into Bacon’s agelessness. I mean, the man is barely even grey. He certainly has that same, thick head of hair that his younger and more footloose self had. Even when it comes to skincare, Sedgwick’s attempts to improve his routine have mostly gone in one ear and out the other, so methinks he’s just genetically blessed. “I’d love to chalk it up to clean living, and I’m not going to pretend that I don’t try to take care of myself, but my wife really tries. She’s constantly leaving me little skin routine products on my side of the sink — like age-defying, emulsifying shit, or a restoring lotion — and I’ll be like, Where’d this come from? But then I’ll think about it and go, Oh, of course. I know. I often ask her what she’s trying to say. [Bottom line] she’s always wanting me to keep up some kind of routine.”

Fair. Because whatever she’s doing is working — anyone can see that Bacon looks much younger than his 65 years. But in terms of how he feels, well, that’s a different story.

“If anything, I would say that, now, I’m less tolerant; I get bored easier.

For instance, I’m genuinely tired of working out. I like the way it makes me feel, and I know it’s a good thing to do, especially as you get older. But then you read these things saying that you should work out harder the older you get and I’m thinking, I’ve been doing pushups for 50 years now. I’m over it. But I don’t want to fall into a mindset of not having anything new to learn, or any way to grow. That’s when you start dying. You come to a point in your life where, if you take one fork in the road, it leads to gratitude. If you take another fork in the road, it leads to bitterness. What I see oftentimes is that older people choose the road of bitterness. And that’s what really ages you, you know?”

What keeps Bacon young, in his opinion, is love, growth, change, and freedom; having a choice to do what he pleases and choosing to do things that feed his need for diversity. His next words sound very Breakfast Club-by (though, ironically, this is one film he didn’t star in), as he says, “When things come to me, they don’t fall into a specific category. I don’t always get a specific trope in the cowboy or the funny guy or the nerd, [which is gratifying] because I’ve always worked hard to be able to play different kinds of parts. When I look at the stuff I have in the can right now and that I have on the horizon, they’re all different men. And to me, that is a win.”

He pauses momentarily, leans back, and briefly shuts his eyes before continuing with, “I don’t plan on pumping the brakes. I think a lot of people are thinking, I’ll go a little easier now, I’ll do one movie a year or maybe I’ll retire.’ I’m not at that point yet. I’m very much focused. I feel like my best stuff, my biggest successes, are in front of me and not in the rear view.”

I don’t need to be six degrees from evin Bacon to know that whatever the man wants, the man gets. His past is only evidence of his future: he knows as well as I do that he has always had all the right moves. @hauteliving HAUTE LIVING 21

Overcoming personal struggles, I’ve found ways to enhance well-being setting adaptable goals, disconnecting from technology, delegating tasks, and embracing continuous learning.

Most importantly, reshaping our inner voice with positive self-talk is key.

DR. DINA D. STRACHAN | SKIN | MIDTOWN, NY Wellness is a long-term game. It’s about returning to the foundations of diet, sleep, exercise, and community. I have started intermittent fasting, which works well for me. I am mindful not to consume excess sugar and alcohol, I’ve been a vegetarian for decades, and I have been more intentional about getting seven or eight hours of sleep per night, even if I’m not always successful. iving in ew York City makes it easy to be active and have a community.

DR. DAISY AYIM | BODY | HOUSTON Wellness has always been a top priority, although the path of medicine often derails or limits the ability to do wellness as I imagine. However, outdoor running is a frequent practice that keeps me balanced both physically and mentally — Sunday mornings are ideal. Another major aspect of my journey is only consuming water — no alcohol or soda. Paired with exercise, it presents a sense of calmness and clarify. This simple living practice is my lifelong mental health therapy.

MELISSA PULCINI-BUTTINE, CEO & FOUNDER, ELIVATE MEDSPA WELLNESS | MEDICAL SPA | STAMFORD/GREENWICH Maintaining balance is crucial for busy entrepreneurs and moms. It’s tough, and sometimes we lose track. Remember, it’s O to falter simply regroup.

Tomorrow brings a fresh start. A set routine for exercise and self-care works wonders. Just like appointments, schedule them in. Yoga and meditation boost mental well-being, even while traveling.

DR. MARA WEINSTEIN VELEZ | SKIN | ROCHESTER, NY Wellness varies for all. It could be walks, fitness classes, healthy eating, or therapy. Regardless, prioritize yourself. For me, it’s girlfriend time, family walks, and regular skincare and treatments to maintain my skin. As a board-certified dermatologist, I enhance patients’ wellness by addressing skin concerns, which boosts self-esteem. And of course, I prioritize my own skin health, too.

DR. THOMAS MCNEMAR | FACE | SAN FRANCISCO Prioritizing my health empowers me to better care for my family and patients. A structured routine is key — sleep, early morning meditation, prayer, and preparation. urturing my mental well-being involves moments with family, bonds within my church community, and my unwavering faith, bolstered by a dose of comedic relief during leisure.

My physical health thrives on nourishing foods, a low-sugar diet, family-oriented activities, sauna sessions, and an array of diverse pursuits such as golf, jogging, skiing, and tennis. Walking our spirited black Portuguese Water Dog and lively apricot Standard Poodle with my wife adds to our invigorating routine. Through these practices, I am empowered. Amid life’s demands, setting aside time for loved ones and treasured activities remains paramount.

JAMIE CARUSO CEO & FOUNDER, SALON LUSSO OF NAPLES | DAY SPA | NAPLES, FL Wellness and mental health are vital in my daily life. At five a.m., I begin with cold water, skipping phone use for an hour. Meditation outdoors or in my office follows, alongside goal-setting and visualization. I edit a life script and read 10 pages of a book. Then, I tackle work, emails, and calendar checks. I prioritize whole foods, hydration, and minimize alcohol and sugar.

This routine empowers a fulfilling, healthy life, emphasizing mental wellbeing and overall wellness.

DR. SAM RIZK | FACE | MANHATTAN, NY I’ve found that even my hobbies and work blend — I suppose that’s what happens when you really love your job! I’m a very creative person and have always loved to sculpt. When I got to medical school and became interested in facial anatomy I realized I could make a career out of sculpting faces.

Outside of art, nothing beats staying active with my family. My kids are accomplished in martial arts, and my wife and I love it, too. We also enjoy playing tennis together; I picked it up recently and discovered it’s a great way to keep my hand-eye coordination razor-sharp.

DR. BERTHA BAUM | SKIN | MIAMI, FL Regular exercise, balanced nutrition, sufficient sleep, and stress management techniques like mindfulness and meditation have helped me maintain my physical and mental well-being. Engaging in hobbies, spending quality time with loved ones, and seeking social support also play vital roles in my life.

Setting realistic goals, managing time effectively, and practicing self-care balance life. Continuous learning stimulates cognitive well-being. Regular check-ins and adjusting your strategies sustain holistic wellness.

DR. ALTON INGRAM | BODY | NASHVILLE, TN First, prioritize sleep amidst surgeon’s long hours for sufficient rest. Second, focus on balanced nutrition with whole, nutrient-rich foods; limit sugar and processed items to fuel body and mind. Third, include non-negotiable exercise, whether a morning run or quick yoga, to manage stress and boost energy. Fourth, mind your mental health with meditation and deep breathing.

Lastly, treasure and cultivate relationships beyond work; quality time with loved ones offers fulfillment and crucial support during challenges.

REFINE HEALTH | MEDICAL AESTHETICS | CORAL GABLES, FL & MIAMI, FL umerous small habits can significantly contribute to elevating your overall well-being and nurturing your mental health.

At Refine Health, we favor maintaining self-consistency, and prioritizing discipline over fleeting gratification. This entails embracing daily sunlight exposure, benefiting from IV Therapy, tending to your oral vitamin regimen in the comfort of your home, and engaging in a workout routine four or five times a week. Incorporate daily stretches, especially post-exercise; consider performing them within a sauna environment for relaxation and muscle relief.

DR. JOSE RODRÍGUEZ-FELIZ | EYELID SURGERY & FACE | MIAMI, FL Throughout my life, I’ve embraced varied activities from martial arts and sports to weightlifting. As I grew older and wiser, I started to realize that focusing solely on my body provided only a limited perspective on holistic well-being. Over the past two decades, I’ve dedicated myself to personal growth and leadership, focusing on self-guided reading, and recently, coaching.

Over the past year, I’ve come to understand the power of working on the mind. I also experienced an awakening that has significantly enhanced my overall state of mind — achievements that physical activity alone couldn’t provide. My routine starts at five a.m. with spiritual awakening, breath work, and body alignment. Dual martial arts sessions and bodywork fill my days. This lifelong journey has evolved into holistic self-improvement, integrating mind, body, and soul. hauteliving.com/hautebeauty HAUTE LIVING 31

DR. JEFFREY LISIECKI | NOSE | NEW YORK, NY Mental and physical wellness is so essential for all of us, and surgeons are no exception. Regular exercise is one of my most important strategies to clear my mind, manage stress, and keep my body healthy for those long days in the OR. Aside from that, healthy eating, making sure I get quality sleep, and making time to unwind with friends and family are also essential.

JULIA BIFULCO, BELLAGENA MED SPA | DAY SPA | BRADENTON, FL Wellness is a holistic concept, and varies from person to person. Listen to your body, pay attention to your needs, and adjust your routine as necessary.

Regular self-check-ins and intentional choices lead to a fulfilling life. My strategies: regular exercise, a healthy diet, adequate sleep, engaging in hobbies, and practicing gratitude. Your journey’s key is finding what works best for you.

DR. JAY ARORA | VISION | SCOTTSDALE, AZ Mental health is by far the most critical component of my abilities as a physician. My job is to give patients my utmost dedication to their overall health, and that starts with prioritizing my own mental wellness. If you pour from an empty cup, you won’t be able to satisfy the demands of those depending on it. For me personally, the key factors in my balance come from exercise, meditation, and spending time with loved ones and friends.

To me, wellness is a state in which I feel well-balanced in my mental, physical, and spiritual mind. It includes doing things I love, like my job and seeing friends, as well as taking care of my body, being aware of how I nourish it, and taking care of my mind. Some practices I’ve included recently are meditation and journaling. In January 2023, I started using a guided meditation app, just five or 10-minute meditations every morning.

I gradually increased the length of time and started meditating on my own without guidance. I have seen a noticeable change in my state of ease and overall wellness.

DR. ANNA CHACON | SKIN | MIAMI, FL As a healthcare provider, I recognize the importance of prioritizing one’s overall wellness and mental health. This is a continuous process that I personally strive to maintain, not just during a specific month, but throughout the entire year.

My approach to wellness is driven by key practices: regular exercise, a balanced diet, quality sleep, mindfulness, and work-life balance. These strategies keep me on track. ffective time management, healthy boundaries, self-care, regular health check-ups, and a strong support system are my practical tools for maintaining balance. Remember, maintaining a healthy balance in life is a journey, not a destination. It’s about making small, sustainable changes that add up over time.

DR. VINEET SANDHU | CONCIERGE MEDICINE | NEW YORK, NY Prioritizing wellness and mental health is a lifelong commitment.

Recognizing the importance of my own well-being in providing quality care to patients, I make time to take care of myself. I understand that self-care is not selfish, it’s an essential component in a healthy work-life balance.

My journey prioritizing wellness underscores self-care’s significance for healthcare professionals. Strategies like time management, exercise, mindfulness, and boundaries bring balance, enhancing well-being and patient care. Investing in ourselves makes us better caregivers and individuals for the rest of our lives.

DR. PETER ANDRADE, BEAUTIQUE CONCIERGE | MEDICAL SPA | BROOKLYN, NY It’s important that overall physical and mental wellness become a lifestyle rather than a short-term goal. I strongly believe that staying active, regardless of the method, is vital for health and longevity. Whether it’s cardio, strength training, or stretching, I believe sweating at least three times a week is paramount to a healthy lifestyle.

DR. NILAY SHAH | BREAST | NEW YORK, NY As a plastic surgeon in NYC, I value wellness and mental health amidst a busy life and an ever-bustling environment. Strategies that help me maintain a healthy balance include: regular exercise, exploring NYC’s diverse culinary scene while making mindful choices, and connecting with friends or attending cultural events.

With this, I set clear boundaries for work and personal time, allocating moments throughout the day for relaxation and reflection. Prioritizing sleep and practicing mindfulness techniques, seeking professional development, and engaging in philanthropic activities fosters a sense of purpose. By integrating these strategies, I ensure that my overall wellness and mental health remain steadfast throughout the year.

DR. HUSAM ALMUNAJED | SMILE | NEW YORK, NY Balancing work and life is an obstacle both personally and professionally.

As I grow older, I realize stress stems from pressure and the uncontrollable.

Manage and embrace them with readiness and experience. Nurture a mindset that’s unshaken by the externals. Prioritize your well-being for life’s rollercoaster, even amid work-life balance.

REANA MYERS PA, CAREAGA PLASTIC SURGERY | BODY | MIAMI, FL Year-round, I focus on my mental health and overall well-being. I swear by three pillars: eating well, staying active, and getting good sleep. I also prioritize personal time by enjoying relating activities, and when I need a boost, traveling does the trick. These habits are my constant for a balanced life.

treats like pumpkin spice lattes, apple pies, and caramel apples is irresistible.

The residues left behind by these scrumptious snacks can cling to our teeth, leading to unsightly surface stains and potential dental problems down the line. But fear not, for we at Empire Dental Aesthetics have a simple and tooth-friendly solution to satisfy your autumn cravings without compromising your smile.

Raw and crunchy fruits and vegetables are our allies in the battle against dental stains. These natural wonders serve as a delicious and nutritious alternative to traditional fall desserts while providing a valuable service for your oral hygiene. By their very nature, these foods act as natural toothbrushes, mechanically removing food particles, bacteria, and residues from your teeth and mouth. In the process, they also scrub away surface stains, preventing the dreaded appearance of dull teeth.

So, what are these specific fruits and vegetables Apples, radishes, pears, celery, kale, and carrots are among the top contenders. These tooth-friendly foods are particularly effective in preventing stains from forming in the first place, thanks to their abrasive texture and cleansing properties. Incorporating them into your fall routine is a wise choice, whether you enjoy them as a postmeal snack or a guilt-free companion to your favorite fall beverage or dessert.

The key to maintaining a radiant smile during the fall season is balance.

While we understand the allure of indulging in seasonal delights, we encourage you to be mindful of their potential impact on your dental health.

2024 Mercedes-AMG S63 E Performance City elegance, canyon stormer

BY TIM LAPPEN

The response to this question isn’t a simple one, and will likely depend upon when someone’s main experience with the brand occurred.

If it were in the late 1930s, the images conjured up would be of the famous world-beaters, the “Silver Arrows,” the sleek, shiny, and super-fast torpedoes that won races everywhere.

If it were in the 1950s, the response undoubtedly would focus on high-performance sports cars, including the legendary 300 SL “Gullwing” — still very much sought-after today — the 300 SLR racer, and the less-mighty yet beautiful 300 SL’s younger brother, the 190 SL. If it were in the 1980s or if it is now, luxury cars like the S-class would stand out, as well as perhaps the wagons, SUVs and crossovers — all status symbols.

But throughout all these decades, one thing remained constant: engineering. The cars coming from the company, based in Stuttgart, Germany, were strong, durable, solid, and dependable.

In recent years though, Mercedes has done more than just hint at its racing heritage, with high-speed road-going cars that display the “AMG” badge on their tails. Today, AMG is the high-performance subsidiary of Mercedes-Benz, headquartered about 13 miles northeast of the main plant. While it started as a racing-engine company in 1967, it slowly became more formally aligned with Mercedes, until Mercedes-Benz bought the majority interest in the company in 1999.

The latest addition to the Mercedes-AMG line is the S63 E Performance, a sedan — and a hybrid — that I had the pleasure of experiencing for the day, both on the Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu, and along the canyons and valleys close to Mulholland Drive. And what a car it is.

Let’s start with the specs, which clearly foreshadow what you can expect from the upcoming driving impressions: Motors: V8 twin-turbo up front (603 horsepower) and an electric motor at the rear (188 horsepower).

Total horsepower: 791.

Total torque: 1,055.

0-60 mph acceleration: 3.2 seconds.

Top speed: 180 mph.

Drive wheels: all-wheel drive.

“WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT MERCEDES-BENZ?”

ote that the car is not marketed as Mercedes-Benz, but as Mercedes-AMG, reflecting the joint-venture nature of the “Skunk Works”, where the gremlins create masterful, powerful cars. To put an accent on that demarcation, the AMGs are built in Affalterbach rather than the main Mercedes-Benz plant in Stuttgart. And it does not come as a surprise to car aficionados that Mercedes-AMG created the engines that motivated some of today’s most sophisticated hypercars, such as the Pagani onda, Huaryra 12, and the Aston Martin 8. Pretty good company to be in, right The car has a great stance, helped immeasurably by stunning 21-inch forged wheels, a design exclusive to AMG. The front grille is the first of its kind for AMG and an array of design elements and finishes differentiate it from other Mercedes-Benz models. The business end of the car is similarly impressive it boasts a nine-speed transmission with seven drive modes, ranging from all-electric to drop the hammer and four settings of regen. ntering the car, it is hard to believe that this isn’t the Mercedes-Maybach sedan, considering how plush and commodious it is. Specially stitched and ventilated seats are complemented by surround sound state-of-the-art air conditioning with vertical registers are located on the main dash and exquisite woods and leathers, as well as a large back seat, make for a luxurious ride.

Driving the car was pure joy. A wonderful combination of handling, accelerating, braking, and steering in a vehicle that tips the scales at around 5,500 pounds is a unique experience. The ride is supple, yet there’s no body roll on the corners. Push it and it takes it all, and then some. There is absolutely no compromise in this vehicle it is as if Mercedes-AMG had made the largest — 17.5 feet long — and most luxurious car one that is both high-performing yet enjoyable to drive at the same time. Yes, it’s a hybrid, but the emphasis is not on miles-percharge — it’s on blistering performance. And that works beautifully.

At press time, the cost had yet to be announced, but the base price is expected to be around 200,000. Is it worth it When accounting for the luxury it provides for nights on the town and the incredible performance it has when hitting the canyons, it’s hard to imagine what other vehicle in that price range can keep up.

2024 Rolls-Royce La Rose Noire Droptail A romantic journey through “la vie en rose.”

AT AN ELEGANT RECEPTION HIGH IN THE HILLS OVERLOOKING

the Pacific Ocean and Pebble Beach Golf inks, a Rose oire glided up the driveway to take its place in front of a wall of gorgeous dark red roses featuring a gold “RR” emblem in the middle, while Torsten M ller- tv s, Rolls-Royce’s C O, introduced the brand’s latest creation.

Many ultra-luxury car makers and hypercar manufacturers will personalize your new ride. Though they may use different names to do so, they allow the buyer to choose the paint color, interior color, materials, seat and dash stitching, wheels, options packages, and, in some cases, enough options so that the purchase price of the fully-loaded car can go up to 100 percent more than the base car. But then, there is the concept of “coachbuilt.”

This is how many luxury cars were created around the world starting at the end of the horse-drawn coach period, which declined after the late 1920s.

During those years, a buyer would purchase a “rolling chassis” (frame, wheels, motor, transmission, etc.) from the builder and then commission a separate company to design the perfect body and interior for the car, making this a time-consuming and expensive process. Yet when it was completed, the owner would have a unique car that couldn’t be owned by anyone else.

36 HAUTE LIVING hauteauto.com

Some vintage coachbuilt cars have received extremely high bids at auction, despite it being almost impossible to determine their value. Yet, I doubt that people purchasing coachbuilt cars today are as concerned about their resale value, considering they’re mostly looking for a car that is a reflection of their taste while showing their passion for design.

Starting in 2017, Rolls-Royce returned to its roots by introducing commissioned roadgoing art with its Sweptail — a two-door coachbuilt embodying the company’s wish to create never-before-seen cars. The design was intended to create an intimate and cosseting interior, wrapping the occupants in comfort and luxury while also providing a smooth and powerful ride and scenic views with a full-length glass roof.

The 2021 Boat Tail continued that design language. It is the car of an extrovert, one who enjoys driving with what Rolls-Royce calls a “highly social open top.” et me now introduce you to a Rose oire, the first of four coachbuilt “droptails” to be built, which was unveiled on the eve of the 2023 Pebble Beach Concours d’ legance in California. The open two-seater (it has a removable roof) is the first roadster body style in Rolls-Royce’s modern

history. It was inspired by the allure of the Black Baccara rose, a flower grown in France with velvet-like petals, beloved by the doyenne of the commissioning family.

Photos do not do the color of the car justice. The incredibly luminescent and jewel-like red paint required some 150 iterations to perfect — a finish so dynamic that, while on display on a perfectly clear, sunny day, it shone with many different shades of red. The red colorway is a lovely counterpoint to the black-mist chrome accoutrements that adorn the body, as well as the bumpers, grille work, and Spirit of Ecstasy adorning the top of the Pantheon grille.

Inside the car, the woodwork was created by combining hundreds of wooden shapes, while the parquetry is comprised of an extraordinary 1,602 pieces of wood sourced from France. The latter is the most complex project ever undertaken by Rolls-Royce. It provides the perfect canvas on which to illustrate the flow of red rose petals that float from fore to aft, even when the car is not in motion.

Rolls-Royce director of design Anders Warming and head of coachbuild design Alex Innes were both in attendance, pointing out the innumerable design touches that were put together to make La Rose Noire one-of-a-kind, yet recognizable.

The designers also collaborated with Audemars Piguet to create a special one-off timepiece that can be placed into its dash receptable as an in-car clock or which can be worn by the car owners. The 43mm Royal Oak Concept SplitSeconds Chronograph GMT Large Date runs on a unique self-winding Calibre 4407 movement, with a flyback chronograph and split-seconds mechanism.

It has red counters and a red inner bezel that both stand out against the black openworked dial that is highlighted with rhodium-toned bevels.

The company’s return to the coachbuilt era has been terrific for both the special customers who commission these beautiful vehicles — some of which can be seen at the most prestigious car shows in the world, such as Villa d’Este — and those of us who aren’t buyers yet still enjoy the gorgeous styling and workmanship emblematic of these exclusive cars. This latest series — the quartet of Droptails each is to be produced in its own variant — harken back to the time when time and money were not as important in the creating of these cars: achieving extraordinary results was paramount. @hauteauto HAUTE LIVING 37

THE MASTER COLLECTOR With an unparalleled reputation in the watch industry, Kevin O’Leary has a relationship with watches that transcends far beyond the dial — as time is Mr. Wonderful’s most valuable asset.

BY ADRIENNE FAUROTE

PHOTOS ALBERTO GONZALEZ

KEVIN O’LEARY’S PASSION FOR WATCHES IS PALPABLE.

A brief digression: in mid-July, I connected with O’Leary a few weeks prior to our shoot to discuss the creative direction and story we wanted to tell. He was beaming with such enthusiasm about showing his watch collection in a new, fun way that for a moment, I thought he was going to burst through the phone. Fast forward to late August on our cover shoot with his beloved timepieces, and his passion practically became infectious.

Being in this industry, it’s clear that some collectors and enthusiasts were just destined for it — and I quickly discovered O’Leary is one of those folks.

His aptitude for watchmaking is a part of his early upbringing. When O’Leary was just a teenager around 15 years old, he moved to the watch capital of the world, Geneva, Switzerland. It was there he discovered the biggest players in the industry, which sat along the streets lining Lac Léman (or Lake Geneva). “Lake Geneva is where the watchmakers were, and where they still are today,” O’Leary explains. “I took a fascination with watchmaking in Geneva, and at that time, in the late 60s, there were remarkable dials I was beginning to learn about, in addition to the history of watchmaking. I developed a passion for watches, realizing they are an unusual piece of art,” he recalls.

There is a hint of nostalgia in O’ eary’s voice, while he also reflects on his early days in Geneva so fondly — as if it were yesterday. “We were just getting a man to the moon around this time, and Omega launched the Speedmaster, which was a watch selected by NASA to be worn in space,” O’ eary says as he references his first-ever watch. And yes, that is the 19 9 Speedmaster that made history when worn by Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin on the moon.

Some years later, his passion — and collection — has only grown.

“When starting a collection, most people go down the so-called ‘three horsemen’ path, which consists of the three core brands of every collector’s collection: Audemars Piguet, Rolex, and Patek Philippe,” O’Leary explains.

Indeed, these are the big three: think of the Patek Philippe World Time, the steel white-faced Daytona from Rolex, and the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak as your founding fathers, if you will. However, O’Leary came to a point in his collecting career where he had reached great heights in the classic category from these three industry pillars. He began to question where he would go next.

The answer was simple: dials. “I got captured in the dials. I wanted to get more diversification in dials because what you see on your wrist — and what starts the conversation — is the dial. And the thing is, Patek has a look, Audemars Piguet has a look, and Rolex has a look. Those are dials I can spot from 20 feet away. I wanted to explore new watchmakers and new dials. For example, the F.P.Journe dials are unmistakable,” he suggests with a smile spreading across his face.

A proven expert in both watches and entrepreneurship who spends his time as an original “shark” on Shark Tank, evaluating and investing in dynamic business proposals, his strategic thinking has infiltrated his keen eye and mindset in watches. Ultimately, he has mastered the minutia of collecting through his investment in watches — emotionally, physically, and beyond.

“The thing about collecting,” he starts to explain, “is people always ask me how I am getting these pieces. So, I think it is important to cover this topic for collectors who are just starting to understand how it works. The @hautetime HAUTE LIVING 41

watch industry has not changed in 250 years. It has grown on the back of its collectors. Those who get into watches and spend a lifetime collecting are the backbone of the industry. And there are certain unwritten rules to follow,” O’Leary reveals.

It’s true; O’Leary is a man of his word. He is so serious about his unwavering commitment to not selling, trading, or bartering any of his watches that he confesses they will likely go with him when he dies (lightheartedly, of course), as he will undoubtedly need them in his afterlife. As they say, watch enthusiasts are die-hards.

All jokes aside, O’Leary is not wrong; this is the golden rule of watch collecting. And once you earn the watchmaker’s trust, the fun can be had.

“When I covet a piece, I let a brand know that a particular dial is of interest to me; however, I do not bug them or call them 40 times — I call once. At their election, they may eventually call me up one day and say they have that dial in North America, asking if I want to take it. My answer is always yes,” he admits.

A trendsetter nonetheless, he is excited about where the industry is headed at this very moment. “I am excited that even the most conservative watch companies — like Rolex and Patek — are getting more creative with their dials. For instance, the Rolex Day-Date Puzzle 42 HAUTE LIVING hautetime.com

Dial that just dropped this year is off the charts,” he says with his passion shining through his words again. “That watch came right out of left field, causing a massive controversy among collectors. They thought Rolex was out of its mind, but I think it’s a brilliant move, bringing excitement to a classic.”

Spending the morning with a snippet of his collection, there is no denying his dials are special. From the Rolex “Eye of the Tiger” Daytona and the F.P.Journe Chronomètre Bleu to the same Patek Philippe Aquanaut Luce “Rainbow” Messi was spotted wearing earlier this year, his repertoire is impressive.

With such a vast collection, I supposed it would be hard for O’Leary to pick just one favorite. Proving me right, he rattled off a few classics he simply could not live without like the Patek Ref. 5711, the Audemars Piguet Jumbo Royal Oak, and his F.P.Journe Chronomètre Bleu he wore during our interview. But watches that transcend into the mind-to-watch realm hold the most importance.

With season 15 of Shark Tank in full swing and a few other ventures in the queue (he teased a culinary endeavor on the horizon in Miami), we can’t wait to see which milestone he reaches next — in life… And on his wrist.

Grand Seiko Style Grand Seiko releases two sleek models within its Heritage Collection, paying tribute to the legendary Grand Seiko Style.

crowning achievements is the 44GS, which has left an indelible mark on the horological world since its introduction in 1967. This watch would become a beacon of the Grand Seiko Style. With its distinctive case, impeccable finishing, and captivating dial, the 44GS set new standards in watch design and craftsmanship.

In 2013, Grand Seiko paid homage to the iconic model by introducing a modern interpretation that retained the essence of the original, while adapting it to contemporary design, ensuring that the Grand Seiko legacy continued to thrive. It was a testament to the enduring appeal of the 44GS design. Then, in 2022, the watchmaker continued the evolution of the design by releasing a new mid-size variant. With a case diameter of 36.5mm, it became the smallest in the series. This introduction heralded a new era for the 44GS, catering to enthusiasts who appreciated its timeless aesthetics in a more compact form.

The culmination of this evolution arrives in the form of the SBGW297 and SBGW299, the latest additions to the Grand Seiko Heritage Collection. Both are distinguished as Master Shop models, a distinction that underscores the exceptional craftsmanship behind their creation. At 36.5mm in diameter, 11.6mm in thickness, and just 42.7mm in length from lug tip to lug tip, the cases of SBGW297 and SBGW299 are a nod to the proportions of the ‘67 original. These cases have been meticulously redesigned to maximize the potential of Grand Seiko’s slim, manual-winding Caliber 9S64.

The case finishing is accomplished using Grand Seiko’s signature Zaratsu method — highly skilled artisans employ this technique to create mirror-polished surfaces that contrast seamlessly with areas adorned with Grand Seiko’s distinctive hairline finishing. ach step of this intricate process is performed by hand, requiring years to master.

In true Grand Seiko fashion, the dials of SBGW297 and SBGW299 are works of art. The former boasts a pristine white dial, while the latter features a captivating darkblue hue — both showcase a dramatic sunray pattern that dances elegantly with the interplay of light, creating a visual spectacle. The bezels, multi-faceted indexes, and hands have been carefully reimagined to complement the scaled-down dimensions. A box-shaped sapphire crystal protects the dial, infusing warmth into the design and connecting it to its midcentury predecessor.

Powering these timepieces is the Caliber 9S64, a mechanical manual-winding movement assembled by the skilled artisans of the Grand Seiko Studio Shizukuishi. This movement undergoes rigorous testing in six positions over 17 days, exceeding the chronometer standard. It adheres to the Grand Seiko Standard of -3 to +5 seconds and boasts a 72-hour power reserve when fully wound.

In the world of horology, where heritage meets innovation, the Grand Seiko Heritage Collection SBGW297 and SBGW299 stand as timeless tributes to the 44GS legacy. @hautetime HAUTE LIVING 43

Sizing Down The Code 11.59 by Audemars Piguet collection welcomes a new 38mm size.

BY ADRIENNE FAUROTE

PHOTOS COURTESY OF AUDEMARS PIGUET

IN AN UNEXPECTED NEWS CYCLE THIS FALL, AUDEMARS PIGUET

released a new 38mm case size to their iconic Code 11.59 collection.

At Watches & Wonders in March, we saw the smaller case size assert its dominance, so this smaller size addition doesn’t come as much of a surprise, yet we’re still here for the slimmer case size movement.

The 38mm Code 11.59 is introduced in two models that complement the collection’s existing 41 and 42mm offerings. Despite the reduced size, these two timepieces have retained the aesthetics that define the Code 11.59 collection. The case consists of an octagonal middle case, nestled within an extra-thin bezel, and a rounded caseback. The lugs, a hallmark of the collection’s design, showcase impeccable craftsmanship — the upper part is seamlessly welded to the bezel, while the lower portion aligns elegantly with the caseback.

This modern case design receives the same meticulous attention to detail as Audemars Piguet’s renowned calibers, with a refined combination of satin-brushing and polished chamfers that accentuate its multifaceted architecture.

Building on the collection’s design evolution introduced earlier this year, the crown of the new 38mm models boasts shallower but more pronounced indentations, adding another layer of geometrical complexity to the case. The two 18-karat pink gold models add elegant contrasts to the collection. The first one features a dynamic purple dial complemented by a matching strap; the second one exudes a more understated yet brilliantly radiant ivory aesthetic.

The embossed dial, crafted in collaboration with Swiss guilloché craftsman Yann von Kaenel, presents a mesmerizing gradient structure.

Hundreds of tiny holes emanate from the dial’s center in a captivating wave-like pattern, creating mesmerizing color effects. To achieve the rich purple and ivory hues, a process known as PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) is employed, preserving and enhancing the depth of the embossed pattern while maximizing the interplay of light. The new faceted and polished hour-markers and hands further accentuate the contrasts on the dial. For optimum legibility in low-light conditions, the hands are filled with luminescent coating.

At the heart of these watches is Audemars Piguet’s latest selfwinding movement, Calibre 5900. This movement, which made its debut in 2022 on select 37mm Royal Oak references, boasts a slim 4mm thickness, a high 4Hz frequency, and an impressive 60-hour power reserve. The meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail are visible through the sapphire caseback, which reveals the movement’s 22-karat pink gold oscillating weight and refined decorations adorning its components.

Each timepiece is paired with a “large square scale” alligator strap that matches the dial’s tone, secured by the collection’s new 18-karat pink gold pin buckle. Additionally, two rubber-coated straps — lined with calfskin leather and adorned with a textile pattern in ivory or purple hues — will be available exclusively in Audemars Piguet boutiques. @hautetime HAUTE LIVING 45

In Sync Louis Vuitton collaborates with Akrivia’s Rexhep Rexhepi collection to create the perfect timepiece, the LVRR-01 Chronographe à Sonnerie.

IN PERHAPS ONE OF THE BIGGEST INDUSTRY PLOT TWISTS

of the year, ouis uitton and Akrivia designed a first-of-its-kind timepiece. At the helm of Louis Vuitton Watches, Jean Arnault has kept us on the edge of our seats with the release of his new design direction for the brand earlier this year. And if I could sum it up in two words, it would easily be, “fresh blood.” As the youngest Arnault, Jean has made his vision for the maison very clear: the collections will be clean, contemporary, and cool. And while the collaboration came as quite a surprise, Rexhep Rexhepi makes perfect sense.

The RR-01 Chronographe Sonnerie is a double-faced chronograph with a chiming complication. Showcasing each brand’s design ingenuity on their respective sides, it is a true standout. The RR-01 is not just a feast for the eyes it’s an auditory delight, too. The watch houses a unique combination of complications: a chronograph, a sonnerie mechanism, and a tourbillon. While the integration of a chronograph and a striking mechanism has historical precedents in pocket watches, it’s a groundbreaking achievement in contemporary watchmaking. The chronograph functions are controlled by a pusher at two o’clock, with an acoustic reminder of elapsed time — a beautiful chime that sounds every minute.

What sets the RR-01 apart even further, is its movement design. Unlike conventional movements, the watch features an inverted caliber, with the chronograph and chiming mechanisms 46 HAUTE LIVING hautetime.com

visible on the front instead of the back. This ingenious design allows the wearer to admire the exquisite craftsmanship of the movement continuously. The movement features meticulous hand-applied decorations, such as anglage and black polishing, showcasing the highest levels of watchmaking expertise.

The platinum case of the RR-01 is a testament to both ouis Vuitton’s iconic Tambour shape and Rexhep Rexhepi’s recognizable design. The tall, sloping bezel and elegantly sculpted lugs draw inspiration from mid-century gentlemen’s wristwatches. ven the crown and chronograph pusher, with their seven-sided form, are handcrafted with meticulous attention to detail, displaying the artistry that both brands bring to the table.

For me, one of the most intriguing aspects of this timepiece is the emblem that graces its sapphire dial. At first glance, it appears to be the conventional Louis Vuitton logo. But after closer inspection, it reveals a clever merging of the Louis Vuitton and Akrivia names, with “LV” subtly intertwined with “AKRIVIA.” The emblem represents not only the watch’s aesthetics, but also the historical link between the two brands. Indeed, this is the first time in ouis Vuitton’s history that its logo is combined with another brand’s — a symbol of the unique nature of this alliance.

The Art of Exploration Vacheron Constantin unveils a new 35mm self-winding Overseas to mark its latest “One of Not Many” campaign with artist and explorer Zaria Forman.

Vacheron Constantin as they broke the news, revealing the new 35mm self-winding Overseas. And while this timepiece is certainly a beauty and perfect addition to the Overseas collection — it is dressed in the opulence of pink gold from case to bracelet — it also tells a story.

The 35mm self-winding Overseas is not just a watch; it represents the essence of the Vacheron Constantin “One of Not Many” campaign, in collaboration with the artist and explorer Zaria Forman. Forman’s work is a testament to her dedication to exploring remote locations in nature — specifically Iceland — and capturing their beauty at that point in time. As I listened to Forman talking about her works, I immediately drew the parallel to Vacheron Constantin’s unwavering commitment to designing products that are inspired by the intricacies of nature.

Similar to Vacheron Constantin’s fascination with nature, Forman developed a deep love for landscape at an early age, becoming fascinated with the ever-evolving properties found in nature. “When you love something, you want to protect it,” Forman explained as we were wandering through Iceland. Forman’s works become ephemeral portraits of the landscapes we stand to loose; ultimately, freezing them in time.

Back to time — the new Overseas exudes a radiant personality, highlighted by its monochromatic design that plays with the warm reflections of pink gold, both in its case and bracelet. The dial, adorned with a sunburst satin-brushed finish and coated with transparent lacquer, radiates with a harmonious tone-on-tone brilliance that captivates the eye. A total of 90 diamonds, meticulously set on the six-sided bezel resembling the iconic Maltese cross, adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to the slim cuff-like profile of the watch.

Beyond its appearance, the watch houses a movement that guarantees exemplary reliability. Caliber 1088/1, the beating heart of this timepiece, comprises 144 components and operates at a frequency of 4 Hz, ensuring precise timekeeping. The inclusion of a stop-second mechanism enables accurate adjustments of time functions, a testament to Vacheron Constantin’s commitment to precision. The movement also boasts a generous 40-hour power reserve, ensuring that you stay on time no matter where your adventures take you.

A work of art from the inside out, the back of the self-winding Overseas features a meticulously decorated open caseback. The rear bridges feature exquisite Côtes de Genève, showcasing the brand’s dedication to craftsmanship. The emblematic rotor, sculpted in gold and adorned with a compass rose, adds a touch of wanderlust to evoke the spirit of travel and exploration.

Luxury brand Raffles has come to play in the States in a big way, opening its first North American property in Boston’s Back Bay. The 35-story, 147room, sustainable, new-build hotel represents the first mixed-use development for the 136-year-old Singaporean brand. The $400 million investment in the project is a reflection here: this LEED-certified building is a beautiful property, with a dramatic exterior sheathed in reflective glass — a tribute to its neighbor, the John Hancock Tower. Awardwinning hospitality design firm Stonehill Taylor drew inspiration from the city’s historic and cultural surroundings to imagine the locally inspired design.

Guests will notice details like copper accents (a nod to Paul Revere’s copper plating company), historical illustrations that adorn custom wall coverings, and greenery that references the window boxes found throughout the Back Bay. There are dramatic, unique touches throughout the hotel as well, chief among them a three-story sky lobby, a grand staircase that spirals through the atrium, and Writer’s Lounge, a signature of the Raffles brand.

Upscale dining experiences are available too. Guests can visit Amar, a Portuguese-Bostonian hybrid; Long Bar & Terrace, a Paolo Ferrari-designed lounge that pairs cocktails with sweeping views of the South End; and Blind Duck, a speakeasy that offers specially crafted cocktails and small bites.

There’s also a range of amenities, all of which have been designed by the world-renowned Rockwell Group: a state-of-the-art gym, a 66-foot pool, and a prestigious Guerlain Spa that features treatments of the renowned Parisian beauty and wellness brand.

Aman New York is one of those rare properties; the one that comes along once in a blue moon and makes such a significant impact that it has all of the world — never mind all of Manhattan — abuzz. The JeanMichel Gathy-designed property is nothing less than an oasis in the city, so quietly luxurious that it’s very nearly like not being in New York at all.

Yet, here it is: smack dab in the center, on the corner of Fifth Avenue and 57th Street, two blocks away from Central Park, close to Broadway, Rockefeller Center, and more. Its 83 suites are among the largest in the city and inspired by the airy architecture of Aman’s properties in Southeast Asia. All suites offer a functioning fireplace and massive, opulent bathrooms with oval soaking tubs, marble rain showers, and double vanities. There’s so much to love here, from the personalized check-in processes and a house car — rare for New York — to a gratis minibar of decadent treats (excluding alcohol) and daily scheduled wellness activities. Speaking of which, its Aman Spa is a spot where relaxation is almost a prerequisite, with offerings meant to detox, ground, and energize. Dining outlets follow suit: the convivial Italian restaurant Arva, Japanese eatery Nama, and year-round outdoor Garden Terrace all offer breathtaking views of the Big Apple (the subterranean Jazz Club intentionally does not). The hotel now offers even more: a partnership with Leica provides options for a personal photoshoot; a session with a renowned fashion photographer and model gives an in-depth look at the industry; and a three-day workshop helps guests master portrait photography with renowned celebrity photographer Mark Mann. Also available are experiences with artists for one-on-one sit-down sessions, art historian guided city tours, and more. It’s the personalized touches that make this so magical — because where else would one expect to receive a hand-drawn, personalized art card after a special meal?

FONTAINEBLEAU LAS VEGAS

The opening of Fontainebleau Las Vegas is easily the biggest of the year, and I do mean in every way: scope, size, prestige, and fanfare. The hotel, which makes its debut this month on December 13, is a 67-story affair residing on nearly 25 acres of land at the end of the Las Vegas Strip with 3,644 luxury rooms and suites, 550,000 square feet of customizable meeting and convention space, more than 150,000 square feet of gaming space, a collection of world-class restaurants and shops, exquisite pools, vibrant nightlife, and vitality-enhancing spa and wellness offerings. It features designs and collaborations with some of the best players in the game: Carlos Zapata Studio, David Collins Studio, Rockwell Group, Lissoni & Partners, Jeff Leatham, Lifescapes, and Jeffrey Beers International, among others. The rooms and suites, as designed by an in-house team led by Fontainebleau Development’s John Rawlins, evoke an understated, timeless elegance in a color palette of blue and silver water tones with dashes of coral-pink, accented by mercury-glass mirrors and brass details. Silver-grey wood veneer, silver-leaf details, pearlescent shagreen inlaid surfaces, and Arabescato marble define the case-goods and other hard surfaces, while custom brass bowtie-shaped drawer-pulls represent both exquisite attention to detail and a nod to Fontainebleau’s history. The rooms also feature custom carpeting in a linear, Art Deco pattern of dove-grey and shades of blue that establish a geometric foundation for the assorted curvaceous furniture selections that rest upon it. As opulent as the rooms are, it’s the sheer scale of the F&B concepts that blow my mind: there will be 36 first-to-market restaurants and bars, which will open this year and continue to roll out through 2024. They include efforts by chefs such as Gabriela Cámara, Evan Funke, and Josh Capon, and restaurateurs inclusive of David Rodolitz, Alan Yau, and David Grutman, who will be debuting the Sin City versions of his Miami staples Komodo and Papi Steak. As if this wasn’t enough, there is a 14,000-square-foot fitness center and 55,000-square-foot spa with 44 treatment rooms, a purifying salt cave, healing infrared sauna and invigorating event sauna, his & hers hydrotherapy lounges, as well as a co-ed sensory room with communal healing waters. Additional resort amenities will include a 96,500-squarefoot luxury boutique retail district on the first two levels of the resort, a six-acre pool district, the LIV nightlife experience, and the forthcoming LIV BEACH daylife experience.

HOTEL PER LA

Los Angeles has been having a bit of a hotel renaissance in recent years, and this is apparent in Hotel Per La, the latest five-star stay to open downtown. As with many things in the area, what’s old has become new again. The hotel is housed in the former Giannini Place building, originally built in 1922 as the headquarters of the Bank of Italy. Reimagined by HN Capital Partners and Sage Hospitality Group, the property features 241 rooms and suites, as well as grand public spaces for guests and locals alike. The hotel includes 10,000 square feet of event space and an array of dining options such as Ristorante Per L’Ora, an upscale Italian restaurant; Café Ora, a daytime café; and Bar Clara, a rooftop bar offering poolside drinks and dramatic views of the LA skyline. “Per La” — “for the” in Italian — is a nod to the building’s Italian beginnings: its founder, Amadeo Pietro Giannini, believed in the dignity and abilities of those commonly overlooked, and as such, “Per La” means “for Los Angeles, and people like you.” Today, the 12-story property retains the building’s signature neoclassical architectural features. Doric columns, ornate gold and blue ceilings, and marble floors meet modern touches like airy linens, amorphic lighting, and pops of colors. The rooms are just as exquisite.

They feature European white oakwood floors and Persian rugs in vibrant colors alongside 4,000 vintage art pieces, original photographs, and illustrations from commissioned artists. The marble writing desks with settees and Europeanstyle bathrooms with Terrazzo floored walk-in showers or freestanding pedestal bathtubs complete the spaces. The addition of a heated rooftop pool makes this one to beat.

The newly opened St. Regis Chicago has a pretty impressive pedigree: the 101-story tower is the tallest building in the world designed by a female architect, and who wouldn’t be here for that? Beyond this unique selling point, its design is very creative, featuring a distinctive design made of an interconnected series of stacked, frustum-shaped towers that extend to various heights. The building’s crystalline form nods to the facets of a shimmering gem, with a gradient of greenblue glass inspired by nature, meant to be a reflection of the colors of Lake Michigan and the Chicago River.

Its 159 guestrooms and 33 suites, all designed by Gensler in a curated palette of natural stone and wood, follow suit on the nature front. In contrast, the hotel’s common spaces, spa, and Presidential Suite, designed

by KTGY Simeone Deary Design Group, are decorated in metallic materials and colors such as copper and rust.

Interwoven, geometric details and angular lines nod to the Great Chicago Fire as well as the city’s geographic interconnectivity of waterways, buildings, and green spaces. These modern elements are found throughout the hotel, from the fitness center, which overlooks the Chicago River and Navy Pier, to the palatial, heated indoor pool that offers stunning views of the city and Lake Michigan. Add in fabulous Japanese cuisine from the likes of chef Hisanobu Osaka, desserts courtesy of pastry chef Juan Gutierrez—winner of Netflix’s School of Chocolate — and a soon-to-openTuscan steakhouse in Tre Dita, the first venture outside of Los Angeles for award-winning chef Evan Funke; an amazing spa; and signature St. Regis experiences, including afternoon tea, evening champagne sabering, and butler service, and the St. Regis may very well become your new Chi-town go-to.

The new crowning jewel of Dallas’ 19-block Harwood District is Hôtel Swexan, a 134-room boutique concept that charmingly fuses the family-owned property’s Swiss heritage with quintessential Texan hospitality.

It is, indeed, where its rather unique name comes from, “Swexan” meaning “Swiss meets Texan.” The hotel has a serious pedigree as well: it’s located in a 22-story modern tower designed by world-renowned Japanese architect Kengo Kuma, who was not only recognized as one of Time magazine’s most influential people of 2021, but who is responsible for the Tokyo Olympic stadium, the new Rolex Building in Harwood District, and the LVMH headquarters in Japan. The mirrored structure exemplifies Kuma’s philosophy that buildings should enrich the connection between their architecture and the environment they’re in. And in the case of Hôtel Swexan, the interiors mirror the exterior, with art and design elements inspired by exploration and adventure drawing cues from various global cities inclusive of 100 different types of natural stones and woods and decorations of antique fireplace mantels from the 19th and 20th centuries. One of the hotel’s hallmark features is that every bathroom is one-of-akind, covered with different wallpapers, lighting, sink fixtures, floors, and tiling. There are also eight unique suites, five dining and drinking concepts, a private social club, and an expansive rooftop pool with panoramic views of the Dallas skyline.

NOBU HOTEL ATLANTA

When it comes to unparalleled quiet luxury, no one does it better than Nobu Matsuhisa and his business partners, Robert De Niro and Meir Teper. As such, their Nobu Hotel Atlanta, located in the Phipps Plaza’s luxury retail development within the prestigious Buckhead neighborhood, is as excellent as can be expected. Atlanta, Georgia’s capital, is known as the “city in a forest” because of its exceptionally lush canopy of trees such as magnolias, dogwoods, Southern pines, and oaks, which cover much of the city. The designers at Rockwell Group took inspiration from this verdant landscape as well as Japanese arts and crafts to create a design that echoes the ethos of Matsuhisa’s signature, world-renowned Japanese cuisine.

This means a property of 152 thoughtfully curated guest rooms — including 27 suites — that feature Japanese inspired décor, the largest of which is the Nobu Villa at 2,200 square feet of space. The most unique plae to stay is the 825-square-foot Porsche suite, a collaboration with the luxury auto brand whose US headquarters are in Atlanta. Here, guests will find best-in-class amenities consistent with Nobu’s signature style but customized for the Porsche minded-lifestyle inclusive of one-of-a-kind art pieces that pepper the spacious living area; sleek, Porsche-inspired décor; exclusive memorabilia that celebrates some of the brand’s key moments; and a selection of coffee table books that provide guests with an inside look into the notable brand. There’s also a Porsche house car available for guests — a Taycan — and the utterly cool Porsche experience, which includes a two-night stay in the Porsche Icon Suite, dinner for two at Nobu Atlanta, a Nobu champagne bottle inroom, a personalized Porsche robe to take home, and an omakase tasting for two. The hotel also features a Nobu restaurant of course, as well as a saltwater pool and 24-hour fitness center.

A Realtor with a wealth of experience and expertise in both the Philadelphia and Florida real estate markets. Having grown up just outside Philadelphia, I have a deep understanding of the local communities and their unique real estate landscape. I hold a B.S.B.A. Degree in Marketing & Sales from Bloomsburg University, which has provided me with a solid foundation for my career. Over the past five years, I have made a name for myself in the industry, starting my journey in Philadelphia and honing my skills as a Realtor. Throughout my five years in Philadelphia and two years in Florida, I have achieved an impressive sales volume of over $25 million in Pennsylvania, completing more than 50 successful transactions. I specialize in luxury properties and new construction, benefiting from my background in real estate development. This background allows me to uncover hidden opportunities and provide invaluable advice to my clients.

In 2023 alone, I have already achieved remarkable results, selling a total of $6 million+ in real estate. Currently, I have over $27 million worth of active listings in Florida and an additional $3.2 million+ of active listings in Philadelphia & $2M pending. These numbers reflect both my abilities as a Realtor and my commitment to delivering outstanding results for my clients.

There’s no denying that Louis Vuitton is a pioneer in marrying the worlds of luxury fashion and travel, whether it’s with its original signature trunk or its latest travel photography collection. Louis Vuitton’s Fashion Eye Series has carved a niche where legends of the craft and emerging talents engage in an unprecedented dialogue. This extraordinary series confronts the contemporary with hidden archival treasures, resulting in a collection of visually captivating photography books set to become reference works.

Each title is a true masterpiece, entrusted with the hands of prominent, authoritative editors who guide readers through extensive imagery while sharing a glimpse of each photographer’s life through interviews and critical essays. Always celebrating the art of exploration, Louis Vuitton recently added three new titles to the series — Vienna by Stefanie Moshammer, Hong Kong by Frank Horvat, and Deauville by Omar Victor Diop, all providing a unique perspective.

Joining an impressive repertoire of cities ranging from Paris to Buenos Aires, the new Fashion Eye titles continue to redefine the relationship between fashion, photography, and travel.

Hong Kong, imagined by Italian-born French photographer Horvat, captures the bustling streets of the city to reveal its palpable energy through previously unpublished black-and-white images. Horvat’s project started in 1962, when he captured these images at a time shaped by an influx of Chinese refugees and British rule. Now historic in its own right, the imagery gives a glimpse at a bygone era of this dense city.

Moshammer’s Vienna offers a fresh take on her hometown, challenging clichés and presenting an unexpected portrait of the city. Her work transcends conventional storytelling, delving into the capital’s collective imagination and unraveling the mysteries of Vienna’s physical and mental landscape. It ultimately shapes a unique narrative that bridges past and present, providing a new perspective on the essence of the place.

Diop’s Deauville explores the iconic Normanic seaside town, drawing connections between the landscapes of the region and his native Dakar. A visionary photographer, Diop has consistently captured attention through his artistic amalgamation of color, atmosphere, composition, and fashion into compelling portrait photography. As part of the Fashion Eye Series, he embarked on a creative residency in Deauville, leading his project to expose the reshaping of the town’s architecture while projecting elements of his personal narrative and cultural influences.

ssa Rae has come a long way.

The 38-year-old actress, who most recently starred in Greta Gerwig’s cotton candy-colored comedy confection Barbie, initially rose to fame with her 2011 web series and accompanying New York Times best-seller The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl, a witty, realistic portrayal of African American women in Los Angeles. But now, over a decade later, an entirely different epithet conveys where she’s at, both personally and professionally.

“I’m ambitious black girl,” she declares.

Rae, born Jo-Issa Rae Diop, isn’t joking. Since developing her platform, she’s leaped from strength to strength, both on-screen and off. She created and starred in the Peabody-award-winning HBO series Insecure, which garnered her multiple Emmy and Golden Globe nominations. Her acclaimed follow-up series for Max, Rap Sh!t, debuted its second season on November 9. There was Barbie, which started a global cultural movement, and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, Sony’s highest-grossing animated debut in history.

On the business development side, she formed HOORAE in 2020, a multi-faceted media company that develops content across media to keep breaking boundaries in storytelling and representation. It’s comprised of HOORA Media for film, T , and digital its music label, music supervision, and “audio everywhere” arm, Raedio and its management division, ColorCreative. She is also the co-owner of the A-based Hilltop Coffee Kitchen, and the Black-focused haircare line Sienna Naturals.

And now, she has yet another venture under her bubblegum pink Barbie belt her very own prosecco brand, iarae.

The bubbly libation, which launched in October, is a collaboration with E. & J. Gallo Winery, a family-owned, ever-growing brand based out of Modesto, California, whose diverse range of 130 products includes sparkling and luxury wines, distilled spirits, and canned seltzers.

But for Rae, iarae was a completely organic fit, born of her undying, ever-present love of prosecco. And I do specifically mean prosecco, not to be confused with champagne (which Rae feels is too bougie) — a love affair that began even before HBO greenlit her Peabody award-winning T series, Insecure, which is based on Awkward Black Girl), in 2015. “[Prosecco] was introduced to me by someone that I ended up loving and respecting when I was going through the tumultuous journey of trying to get a show on HBO. The development process was hard, and finding a director was even harder. When I finally found one [Melina Matsoukas, who was, at the time, best known for directing Beyoncé and Rihanna music videos], she took me for a sushi kickoff dinner at Matsuhisa Beverly Hills, which felt so fancy to me. The first thing she ordered was a prosecco, and I was like, ‘What is that?’ She said, ‘Oh, you’ll see.’ So, I had it, and I fell in love with the drink.” [So much so that the writers of Insecure made her character, Issa Dee, similarly obsessed.]

But as much as she loved the sparkling drink, it wasn’t until she went to Italy that she decided to create her own brand. What she found was that, as with most worthwhile ventures, getting iarae going was not an easy task.

“It has been a journey,” she begins. “I’ve been trying to get this off the ground for three years. I met with different companies, and some of them didn’t really understand my vision and why I chose prosecco. Some companies felt too small for what I wanted to be able to accomplish. And when 2020 happened, the companies that were interested had to fall back. But then Gallo came along, at a time when we really needed a partner that was 128 HAUTE LIVING hauteliving.com

willing to step up. They didn’t question my desire to launch a prosecco: they just got it. They were able to step in and supercharge what we had already done. Plus, what they have access to in terms of distribution is crazy. They quite literally own the prosecco market. Until now, [the Gallo-owned] La Marca was my prosecco of choice.”

Luckily for Rae, there are some commonalities between her brand and her former favorite. iarae’s expressive, aromatic, and subtly dry style is comparable to La Marca, and it also happens to be grown in the same place — the picturesque northern Italian city of Treviso — with the very same 100 percent Glera grapes.

But to make the brand unique to her, iarae needed to capture Rae’s own vivacious, sparkling spirit — the very spirit that eventually inspired her brand’s name. “There were so many options, but I wanted something Italian I wanted to respect the culture from which prosecco comes from.

I recommend prosecco so often that I fell in love with this name. In Italian, via’ means by way of.’ In that sense, I wanted [ iarae] to reflect that this is very much from me and approved by me.”

As such, Issa Rae the person and iarae the brand are distinctly synonymous. “I would say I’m approachably luxurious, bright, and celebratory,” she says, explaining, “I feel like I live a pretty down-to-earth life, but I do like the finer things. I am optimistic, and while I’m not bright presenting, I am a bright person, and I do like celebrating every moment.”

She pauses, before saying, “My head is constantly down in terms of working and trying to achieve that next milestone, so sometimes I don’t look up often enough to think, I did that. While I need to practice that more, I do think prosecco has helped me in that respect. It’s afforded me the opportunity to celebrate myself, my life, and to learn not to be so hard on myself, on my losses or the things I didn’t achieve. Having the opportunity now to do that, to make the time to celebrate myself, is incredible.”

Speaking of celebrations, we all know that drinking alone is never as fun as convivially imbibing with others. Which is why all of Rae’s most memorable moments involve her nearest and dearest. “It became the drink that I would order whenever I had to celebrate a milestone, or even if I was just enjoying time with family or friends. I associate prosecco with my favorite moments,” she admits.

The most memorable of which, she says, (outside of her 2021 wedding to businessman Louis Diame) was the premiere of Insecure, which took place in ew Orleans she was joined by her closeknit group of gal pals, who flew down to support. She remembers ordering her favorite drink, walking (stumbling) through the streets of the Big Easy, celebrating with her squad and loving life. A more current moment was a recent trip she and her girl gang took to her favorite place: Italy. It was a pivotal time as Rae made herself vulnerable to criticism, allowing her besties to try (and share their opinions on) iarae for the first time.

“My friends and I took an impromptu trip to Rome, and they had never tasted [my prosecco],” she recalls. “We were out on my hotel balcony, and I was nervous for them to try it. To them, it was a crime that they hadn’t.

When they did, I remember one of the girls saying, ‘I’m so glad this is good, because I didn’t want to have to be out here pretending.’ To have them taste it for the first time and approve it meant the world to me. They are so much of my foundation, and I wouldn’t be who I am today without them. To have my happy drink in Italy, my happy place, was everything.”

Because her friends are her inspiration, they are, ultimately, her key audience. “[ iarae] is for women. I always think about the Black woman first with anything I do, because that is my primary friend circle. But really, I think this is for anybody who’s ambitious, who wants to celebrate themselves, who wants to toast just because... and obviously, lovers of prosecco.”

It also sounds like something another star with a similar squad of friends might enjoy — despite her own “champagne problems.” Rae laughs, and says, “Hey, if Taylor Swift wants to drink iarae, then I’m not mad at that at all!”

have a burning question, and Issa Rae has the answer. What, specifically, is “yacht shit” It’s a conundrum that plagues me as I read through iarae’s press release. It closes with “ et’s shamelessly indulge and taste what yacht shit is all about.”

Rae heartily laughs at my question before responding, “I remember tweeting, in maybe 2017, that I just wanted to get on a yacht and do yacht shit with my friends. And then the next year, it came to a point where I was like, “Oh, wait, I can do yacht shit. I live in A, I can rent a boat, and I can do yacht shit with my friends.” So I did, and then invited a bunch of my friends and it became a way to let loose. It became an opportunity to meet new people, to dance on a boat during the day, and have a good time. It’s a party, just a little kickback. I think I’ve done it four times now. [And] for me, it represents luxurious, uninhibited celebrations.”

Yacht shit might not be a global thing yet, but if Rae puts her mind into making it so, it will happen. I am a witness to her drive, and it is both exhausting and inspiring. When she tells me she’s only drawn to things she’s passionate about, I think, “Thank goodness” and, simultaneously, “She must be passionate about a lot.”

This drive, she says, started during her undergrad years at Stanford niversity, from which she graduated in 2007 with a Bachelor of Arts in African and African American Studies. “I was by myself and put in an environment where I was forced to make a name for myself — make something of myself and decide who I wanted to be what I ultimately wanted to do. It was the best place to encourage collaboration. I used to be very competitive, and I think it was instilled in me to like one or two things by myself because then, you get the credit for it. You can’t rely on people that’s just not been my experience. Yes, I’ve had bad personal work experiences, but generally, I have such a good eye for what people are capable of and what we can do together. I put my first play on in college because I watched somebody else do it. I have a mentality that’s like, ‘I can do it, too.’”

Take iarae as just the most recent example. “It’s something I’ve wanted to do that seemed fun, is fun, and has been fun, so it doesn’t feel like work at all. Meeting sales reps and traveling is work, but it’s also fun because you get to talk about wine, drink it with people, and hear about their love of it.

Plus, I’m learning so much, too.”

That said, the reason she’s all lit about by this latest venture is because she’s enthusiastic about it, because it’s a natural fit. You’ll never see Issa Rae hawking motor oil — it’s just not on brand.

“It has to be organic,” she explains, sharing that her partnership with Hilltop Coffee itchen came to be because she wrote in coffee shops. She didn’t have one in her neighborhood, so she built one. Similarly, finding the right natural haircare products — and helping her sister-in-law expand the Sienna aturals brand — has been part of her journey. Coming from a web-based background and knowing what it was like not to have the resources to take her career to the next level was her impetus for creating ColorCreative, with an eye towards not only discovering talent, but helping them navigate the industry and providing them with opportunities and connections to do so. ven the decision to set up HOORA ’s headquarters in the heart of South A — where she’s from — was intentional.

“All of these companies were born from things that I’m already doing, or things that I want and want to be involved in. They feel like extensions, as opposed to laborious new businesses and separate entities,” she explains.

“I don’t want to just be out there putting my name on everything and doing anything. It has to feel special to me. I want to do more that fits, that I can’t resist not doing. So maybe there are more collaborations in me, but for the most part, I’m a writer, a storyteller, and if [something doesn’t] contribute to that, then, to me, it’s not worth doing. So, my focus right now is the next project I want to put on the screen the next big story I want to lend my name to what I have to say about the world and the culture right now.”

Rae says that she has a few projects in the works. “[I want to be] very specific about what I put out there because there are more eyes on me now. Initially, people were more forgiving. But now that there are eyes and expectations, I have to be a bit more careful and intentional about what it is that I want to put out next. I do have that next thing, I think, on the T side, and I really want [to find] that next thing on the film side.”

Which is how we get to where Issa Rae is now in her era of ambitious black girl.

“I think I’m an ambitious black girl now because I know that there’s so much more that I have to do in the storytelling space that I have not done yet. In that way, and in navigating this industry that’s rapidly changing, I’m trying to find the different modes in the same way that I did 12 years ago with Awkward Black Girl. Back then, nobody was taking my scripts, I couldn’t find representation. ven now, while I’m in a much different and privileged place, there’s still something bursting in me to do more and to tell more stories. But now, I’m thinking what’s going to be that right story ” I don’t have the answer Issa is seeking, but I do know this much she will figure it out, and she’ll have a glass of prosecco in hand and a smile on her face while doing so. @hauteliving HAUTE LIVING 129

Just What You Need at Mr. Wanderlust

There’s a hot new spot in Marina Del Rey, courtesy of Jared Meisler, the man behind some of A’s most beloved institutions (The Roger Room, Bar ubitsch, The Friend, and The ittle Friend), in Gin Rummy. Here, in the former ueva space, is a concept that fully embraces the SoCal beach vibe, but with a tropical, tiki bar flair. The spacious, 200-seat setting creates a colorful and ornate island paradise that marries nautical and South Pacific themes with contemporary design. ative and tribal prints cover the bar stools and wood booths mini palm trees and lush tropical plants are adorned with brass ship hardware thick posts are wrapped in nautical rope and bone-inlaid mirrors, woven wood light fixtures, rattan chairs, and lazy ceiling fans play into the ey argo-meets-pirates lair vibe. The convertible indoor outdoor patio, dotted with tables painted as checker and backgammon boards, features a mahogany pergola that illuminates the space with brass ship light, is a great daytime spot to sip one of the playful craft cocktails from categories such as Frozen Rummys, Stirred, Highballs, Tiki, o Booze, and Cocktails for Four — an homage to the legendary Trader ic’s of vintage Hollywood lore. Our pick the “Habanero Honeysuckle” rummy for something that feels a little same-same, but different. 822 Washington Blvd, Marina Del Rey, 90292

Mr. Wanderlust

The nightlife scene in Los Angeles is in constant evolution, but it’s been quite some time since the city has seen a project of this scale. Cue evel 8, a first-of-its-kind multidimensional space in downtown A that boasts eight unique restaurants, bars, and nightlife venues. The ambitious and gigantic concept (it spans 30,000 square feet) from the Houston Brothers, the tours de force behind some of A’s most beloved venues ( a Descarga, Harvard Stone, Pour ous), is told through the eyes of its fictional founder, Mr. Wanderlust, an adventurer whose collection of books, artifacts, and cocktail recipes reflect his eclectic tastes. This is, uncoincidentally, the name of the complex’s sole lounge, a Wonderland-esque piano bar and jazz club highlighted by knickknacks, serpentine booths, wooden walls, lush fabrics, and a secret entranceway. Here, the impossible is possible aerialists swing from chandeliers and Grammy-award winning artists covertly take the stage each night. This rich and unique setting is a perfect foil for the venue’s globally inspired cocktail menu, which features libations from some of the world’s best mixologists, including Alex Day, David aplan, and Drink Masters star Christian “Suzu” SuzukiOrellana. Try “Peel Slowly and See,” a stellar effort from ate Gerwin of Happy Accidents banana and eucalyptus-infused Hennessy with banana soda. Meanwhile, the nibbles, courtesy of chef Richard Archuleta, are equally diverse. A selection of small bites, ranging from the exquisite caviar “toad in the hole” to braised wagyu beef “cigarettes,” can be enjoyed as an omakase-like capsule experience with a craft cocktail pairing. 1254 S Figueroa St, Los Angeles, 90015

Wasp in a Wig

The concept behind Bar Next Door is a simple one: it is, quite literally, next door to some of LA’s most legendary landmarks on the iconic Sunset Strip. As such, the new craft cocktail bar reimagines the experience of a classic neighborhood haunt through a uniquely Angeleno lens. Set in an intimate, historic space designed in collaboration with Adam Greco of GRECODECO (Soho House, The Ned), Bar Next Door is where California chic meets the timeless allure of old Hollywood’s rock ‘n’ roll era. The building has a fabled past: for a period in the late 1940s, it housed the offices of the Cukor- ipton Agency, a talent management agency that represented star players in the motion picture business, including the woman who stepped into the building as Norma Jeane Dougherty and came out as Marilyn Monroe. But the location alone isn’t enough to channel the Strip’s storied past and vibrant present: founder Lawrence Longo and creative bar director Brynn Smith keep the story going through a slew of decadent, decidedly complex cocktails that pay homage to a different iconic location near the bar.

On the menu, expect to see libations like the “Whisky a Go-Go” (an elevated riff on a whisky and coke that mimics cola flavors with liqueurs and vinegar, Slane Irish whisky, Jack Daniel’s Tennessee whisky, Luxardo Amaro Abano, Luxardo Cherry Morlacco, lime, balsamic vinegar, and Ms. Better’s Bitters Miraculous Foamer) and the “Beverly Hills Hotel” (a clarified pink paloma ros spritz featuring Casamigos blanco tequila, Meletti 1870, a uca prosecco ros , clarified grapefruit and lime, Mahina Coconut, Fancy Sprinkles rose quartz prism powder, and banana leaf). 9159 Sunset Blvd, West Hollywood, 90069

WASP IN A WIG We’ll happily go down the rabbit hole for an adventure at Wasp in a Wig, a new speakeasy at the SLS hotel Beverly Hills inspired by the lost chapter of Lewis Carroll’s Through the Looking Glass. Tucked discreetly behind a mirrored wall by day, its entrance is only revealed once the clock strikes 5 p.m., when the mirror surprisingly opens, and a host stand appears. Once inside, Wasp in a Wig reveals itself as a visual feast filled with whimsical charm thanks to crystal chandeliers that cast a soft glow over the room, vintage photographs, and plush white velvet upholstery across cozy and intimate seating nooks scattered throughout the room.

Various design elements pay homage to Carroll’s imaginative Wonderland and the beloved characters that inhabit it, such as Alice and the Red Queen. The menu, meanwhile, is divided into three sections inspired by the enchanted dimension of Alice in Wonderland. Try an array of mushroom-inspired dishes from their One Side Makes You Grow Taller selection or explore the Eat Me category, which features shareable dishes like oysters infused with Korean flavors and an oxtail chicharron. Lastly, indulge in the Drink Me section that includes craft cocktails such as the “White Rabbit,” (Hendrick’s gin infused with yerba mate, egg white, heavy cream, and orange blossom water) and the “Fairy” (Mansinthe absinthe, Tito’s vodka, suze, honey and ginger syrups, cucumber, and lime).
