PUBLISHER’S NOTE
I
love the adrenaline rush I get from speed. Perhaps that is why our annual Luxury Motors issue is one of my favorites: With the selection of luxury and sports cars we showcase, my adrenaline levels are shooting through the roof! But as summer comes to an end, it also makes me realize just how fast life goes in your 40s. That is a different kind of speed, one that I do not care to experience! Speaking of life, I believe that everyone has a purpose. Mine is to motivate and inspire people to be the best versions of themselves. I’ve been told many times throughout my life that I have touched or inspired someone—even strangers with whom I’ve had little contact. Hearing this is one of my greatest joys in NKHG + IGPWKPGN[ ƂPF JCRRKPGUU KP JGNRKPI QVJGTU RCTVKEWNCTN[ VJQUG YJQ CTG appreciative of it. Because of this, I have decided to start a personal blog called Lynette’s Lessons. It will cover a variety of topics related to life, happiness, love, dating after 40, GPVTGRTGPGWTKCNKUO RCTGPVKPI CPF OCTTKCIG C pDKTFoU G[Gq XKGY ƂPFKPI [QWT true passion and more. I did not create this blog for any reason other than to share what I believe is a gift: the ability to hit the reset button, to make lemonade out of lemons, to see the glass half full and to look for the rainbow before the rain ends. If I can inspire or help even one person, then it will be worth every second! My blog will launch sometime in August. I hope that you will consider following it: LynettesLessons.com

EDITOR’S LETTER

T
he saying “Time flies when you’re having fun” couldn’t be more true. It was exactly two years ago that I became editor-in-chief at South Florida Luxury Guide, but it seems like just yesterday I was working on my first issue with the publication, which happens to have been our annual Luxury Motors edition. It was a topic with which I’d had very little experience. Fast-forward to 2018: While I cannot say that I am a seasoned expert, I am much more familiar with the subject than I ever was. And thanks to the expertise of my trusty car and yacht writers, we’ve put together a whopping 25-page special feature showcasing the best and newest luxury motors—by land, by air and by sea. For Luxury Motors by Land (Page 57), we present the hottest automobiles for 2019, from million-dollar stunners and flashy exotics to electrifying hybrids and wow-worthy SUVs—and much more. The special feature continues with Luxury Motors by Air (Page 72), a look at some of the coolest private and self-piloting aircraft of the future (including the first-ever flying car). And, finally, for Luxury Motors by Sea (Page 73), we highlight some of the newest and most stylish yachts and fishing boats taking to the water this year and next. I hope you enjoy the issue as much as we enjoyed putting it together. Have a wonderful fall!

The Patricia & Phillip Frost Art Museum - FIU kicks off its 10th anniversary celebrations with the premiere of this intriguing exhibition featuring the work of 12 artists, all of whom currently live and work in Miami. Their works examine the theme of “deconstruction”—from current events to cross-cultural awakenings the artists have experienced. The subtitle of the exhibit is derived from Guy Debord’s 1967 book, The Society of the Spectacle, which warned about a future world where images would prevent us from direct personal contact. frost.fiu.edu

onâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get me wrong: Aerobic exercise is vital to strengthening our hearts and lungs. However, expecting that exercise alone will get you to the goals you have for your physique will leave you burned out physically and mentally.

But thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a another topic.)

All images of 2019 Buick Enclave Avenir
Take your perception of the 100-plus-year-old brand and throw it out the car window. Buick is redefining luxury, as evidenced by its newest crossover, the Enclave Avenir. BY JERRY PEREZ
B
uick is having a renaissance. Staying true to its core values of sophistication and reliability, the century-old American brand is now captivating a different audience, one that tends to dismiss tired brands of the past in favor of trendier names. It recently launched Avenir (which means â&#x20AC;&#x153;futureâ&#x20AC;? in French), a new sub-brand that represents Buickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s highest expression of luxury.
On the road, the Enclave Avenir offers a quiet and smooth ride, qualities for which Buick has always been known. The serene cabin evokes a stress-free driving mindset, one thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s aided by advanced, easy-to-use technology. Features include adaptive cruise control, active lane assistance and Wi-Fi connectivityâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;amenities typically found in much higher-priced vehicles.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t shy away from our history,â&#x20AC;? says Mikhael Farah, assistant manager of East Coast communications for Buick. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But as we look to the future, customers still appreciate purposeful technology, timeless design and attainable luxury. That is what Avenir is for usâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; the future.â&#x20AC;? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a delicate combination, but the new Enclave Avenir manages to merge the old with the new, keeping the brandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s storied reputation intact while welcoming the next generation of Buick enthusiasts.
It isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just the driver who gets cocooned by luxurious amenities; rear passengers also DGPGĆ&#x201A;V HTQO NGCVJGT CRRQKPVGF ECRVCKP EJCKTU in the second row and the bench seat in the VJKTF 6JG Ć&#x192;GZKDNG HQNFKPI UGCVU CNUQ RTQXKFG plenty of space for luggage, golf clubs or beach accessories. After all, this is sunny South Florida. Speaking of which, nothing says stress-free driving like ventilated front seats on a scorching hot day!
Our publisherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recent weekend trip to Eau Palm Beach Resort & Spa presented the perfect opportunity to discover everything the Enclave Avenir has to offer. From afar, the Enclave Avenir dazzles with a modern exterior, which boasts an understated yet upscale presence, perfect for those who GPLQ[ VJG Ć&#x201A;PGT VJKPIU KP NKHG DWV FQPoV YCPV VQ scream, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Look at me!â&#x20AC;? wherever they go. 48

1PEG CV VJG Ć&#x201A;XG UVCT TGUQTV VJG 'PENCXG Avenir held its own amid more expensive, yet less-equipped, European crossovers. In the end, Buickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new model isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessarily for label elitists, but it is for the rest of us who prefer practicality, reliability and comfort in the luxury car we choose to drive. And donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be surprised if people keep asking you, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Is that a Buick?â&#x20AC;?

Bahia Mar, the home of the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, is undergoing major reinventions. While the locale has long featured a hotel, as well as commercial and retail spaces, the redevelopment will expand the marinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shopping and dining options, as well as add residential units. Better yet, Bahia Mar will offer public access, which means locals and tourists alike can peruse the offerings while enjoying impressive viewsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and the even more impressive megayachts that will dot the 245-slip marina.

Fort Lauderdale Country Club
With two carefully manicured golf courses, the members-only Fort Lauderdale Country Club provides a calm respite in the heart of a bustling city. BY ERIC N. HART
S
outh Florida golfers seeking a serene, welcoming club environment should look no further than Fort Lauderdale Country Club (FLCC), which occupies a private 288acre slice of rural heaven on the east end of Pine Island Ridge. With 36 holes of parkland golf (the 18-hole South Course, built in 1926, and the 18-hole North Course, built in 1951), this 90-year-old members-owned club is described as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;gathering of welcoming, philanthropic world travelersâ&#x20AC;? by General Manager Michael Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien, who was recently inducted into the South Florida PGA Hall of Fame. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People join our club for the lasting friendships, our two fabulous courses and the professionally organized travel opportunities we provide worldwide,â&#x20AC;? he says, noting that FLCC also has the largest womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s golf league in Broward County.
MUST-HAVE GEAR
The clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s North Course, whose signature ninth hole has been featured in numerous commercials thanks to its dramatic vantage point, is currently undergoing a multimilliondollar renovation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Reinvestment is the key to staying relevant,â&#x20AC;? Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Elevating the overall playing experience to meet and exceed the golf experiences around us is proving to be a popular and growth-productive move.â&#x20AC;? But there isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t much else at the club that needs improving. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re proud of what our club is and has accomplished,â&#x20AC;? Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien adds. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Being able to escape big-city life while staying in the big cityâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a perk and privilege that simply doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t exist around here anymore.â&#x20AC;?

ew York City native Steven La Fonte has been cultivating his passion for design since the early 1990s, when he was designing and manufacturing luxury drapery and bedding in Manhattan. He turned his love for fabrics and textures into a successful interior design business, and in 1999, he relocated to South Florida. Over the last 20-plus years, La Fonteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work has appeared in prestigious publications, including Architectural Digest, Florida Design and Luxe Interiors + Design. La Fonte also designs most of the bespoke furnishings for his projects and has them made locally. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My daily surroundingsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;people, fashion, music, art CPF GXGP CFXGTVKUKPItCTG XGT[ KPĆ&#x192;WGPVKCN KP O[ FGUKIPU q JG UC[U p6JG EQNQTU QH PCVWTG CTG GXGT[YJGTG q

I usually start from the conceptual stage, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important for me to be a part of the architectural planning. I meet with clients and listen to their visions. I try to get a realistic budget, then begin my presentation. I have an active imagination, but I like to remain current. How would you describe your design style? I love combining traditional and modern interiors. My style involves bringing the most artistic versions of my clientsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; views to life. Go-to paint color: Farrow & Ball All White.

Experience, talent and taste make furniture showroom and full-service design studio Robb & Stucky an industry standout. BY ROBIN HODES
I
t is with a sense of great honor that Eric Chien steers the ship as president and CFO of luxury design and home furnishings retailer Robb & Stucky. For a brand that is over a century old, its energy is as kinetic and dynamic as if it were just starting out. Chien attributes the company’s success to staying true to its three pillars of business: exquisite furnishings, brilliant designers and legendary service. “A great shopping experience is always our primary goal,” he says. “We hope customers will experience our three pillars from the beginning to the end.” For those who have yet to visit one of Robb & Stucky’s stunning showrooms, here’s what to expect: gorgeous furnishings, both ontrend and timeless, from some of the top names in the business, including Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams, Bernhardt, Baker, Century Furniture and American Leather; over 50 professional interior designers dedicated to creating a space that is distinctly yours; and impeccable white-glove service that ensures every piece is delivered to perfection. Though rooted in tradition, Robb & Stucky is also known for staying on the cutting edge of design trends (we’re loving the modern-day
take on “glitz and glam”), as well as having the latest technology (as evidenced by the showroom’s “motion gallery,” where fully powered head and foot rests offer perfectly customized comfort settings). Robb & Stucky’s vast selection and accessible price points are intended to satisfy today’s savvy, quality-driven clientele. “Life is complicated nowadays,” says Chien. “People want to live a simple, relaxed lifestyle, but with a certain level of sophistication.” The latest addition to Robb & Stucky’s portfolio is the prestigious honor of designing two model units at Brickell’s all-new luxury rental building Panorama Tower, which, at 85 stories high, is the tallest residential skyscraper south of NYC. The appointment is a true testament to the fact that Robb & Stucky is not just a furniture store, DWV CNUQ C JKIJN[ GUVGGOGF KPVGTKQT FGUKIP ƂTO With 99 percent positive feedback from surveyed customers, it’s clear that Robb & Stucky’s goal of helping everyone “Live Life Beautifully” has been both met and surpassed.

How do I know when it is the best time to buy?
YOUR GUIDE TO LUXURY LIVING
For a primary home buyer, the best time to buy is when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had a chance to calmly look at properties, research neighborhoods and narrow down what works best for you. If [QW JCXG Ć&#x192;GZKDKNKV[ [QW ECP CNYC[U Ć&#x201A;PF C pIQQF FGCN q For a real estate investor [QW ECP UWDUETKDG VQ VJG p$W[GToU /CTMGVq VJGQT[ YJKEJ JCRRGPU KP GXGT[ TGCN GUVCVG E[ENG #P oversupply of properties for sale brings about a correction of the real estate market and puts downward pressure on the value of properties.

Correct pricing will ensure that your home will attract a wide range of buyers that can present you with offers and terms that meet your criteria.
What are the top things that add value to my home? Kitchen: One of the top improvements with the greatest return in the value of a home is the kitchen. If you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford to completely remodel it, new appliances and new countertops or cabinet resurfacing/refacing help a great deal.

Islands in the Sun
When you’re looking to disconnect, an island is often your best bet. And while many of these water-enclosed paradises are known for their mesmerizing coastlines and languorous ways of life, others will surprise you with more adventurous pursuits. Here, we’ve rounded up six destinations around the globe that give you a whole new perspective on what a luxury island getaway could be. BY CHADNER NAVARRO
Aruba Marriott Resort & Stellaris Casino
ARUBA
This 69-square-mile Caribbean destination just a few miles off the coast of Venezuela is not your run-of-the-mill tropical isle. Here, you can spend your days lounging on the powdery sand with an endless supply of tasty cocktails or embarking on an itinerary jam-packed with activities both on and around the water. Aruba’s motto, “One Happy Island,” is as prevalent as its miraculously bending fofoti trees.
WHEN TO GO: It’s always summer on Aruba, where the trade winds keep a steady breeze and temperate conditions year-round. STAY: At the Aruba Marriott Resort & Stellaris Casino, elevate your

experience by checking into the exclusive, adults-only Tradewinds Club. VIP check-in, a dedicated lounge, exclusive food and beverage offerings, reserved beach seating and modern accommodations are just some of the perks. tradewinds.arubamarriott.com
PLAY: Colorful cocktails, blackjack at Stellaris Casino and a sunset catamaran sail with De Palm Tours are just some of the resort’s offerings that could pull you away from the peaceful adults-only pool. ENRICH: Tour the quiet town of San Nicolas, which is a hotbed for local culture reminiscent of Miami’s Wynwood Art District. In September, the Aruba Art Fair lures international artists from around the world.
UNWIND: The Marriott’s 6,500-square-foot Balinese-inspired Mandara Spa offers numerous treatment baths, body scrubs and facials. For an active twist on relaxation, opt for a paddleboard yoga session. TASTE: The resort has several top-notch dining venues on-site (Atardi for seafood, The Lobby for sushi, for two), but you’ll also want to try Eagle Beach’s Screaming Eagle for French-inspired Caribbean fare and its unique “dinner in bed” atmosphere. screaming-eagle.net Couple underneath a fofoti tree at Aruba Marriott Resort

for County Court Judge Group 2 Candidate CATALYST FOR CHANGE
Kristy NuĂąez, a candidate for Miami-Dade County Court Judge, Group 2, has dedicated her life to serving the community she holds close to her heart. In the Beginning 6JG FCWIJVGT QH %WDCP KOOKITCPVU -TKUV[ 0WĂ?G\ YCU DQTP CPF TCKUGF KP /KCOK #HVGT ITCFWCVKPI from Carrollton School of the Sacred Heart, she attended the University of Miami where she GCTPGF C DCEJGNQToU KP DWUKPGUU CFOKPKUVTCVKQP $WV 0WĂ?G\ YCUPoV Ć&#x201A;PKUJGF YKVJ JGT UVWFKGU UQ she embarked on a new path that has led to an illustrious career. Law and Order NuĂąez enrolled in law school and set her sights on making a difference in the community. Once she began to pursue her passion, there was no stopping her. While attending St. Thomas University School of Law, NuĂąez served as a judicial law clerk and interned at VJG UVCVG CVVQTPG[oU QHĆ&#x201A;EG #HVGT ITCFWCVKQP she accepted a position as assistant state attorney, which she has held for the past 13 years. NuĂąez has prosecuted thousands of criminal cases, argued hundreds of motions and tried approximately 50 cases before a jury.

A Passionate Advocate NuĂąezâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s passion for youth advocacy and dedication to crime prevention extend DG[QPF VJG YCNNU QH VJG UVCVG CVVQTPG[oU QHĆ&#x201A;EG In 2010, she co-founded Urban Promise /KCOK 72/ C PQPRTQĆ&#x201A;V QTICPK\CVKQP dedicated to serving at-risk youth and their families in under-resourced communities in Miami-Dade County. Since its inception, UPM has accomplished a 100 percent high school graduation rate in an area where only 39.6 percent of high school students typically graduate. In addition to serving as board chair of UPM, NuĂąez is currently a board member of the Miami-Dade League of Prosecutors. She previously served on the board of directors of 6JG /GNKUUC +PUVKVWVG C PQPRTQĆ&#x201A;V FGFKECVGF to the study and prevention of violence. NuĂąez has dedicated her professional career and personal life to public service. Her
passion for the law, as well as her love for the community, ignites her desire to serve Miami-Dade County from the bench. What has been the highlight of your career? Being a prosecutor has allowed me to work in protecting the most vulnerable and defenseless victims, particularly victims QH JWOCP VTCHĆ&#x201A;EMKPI OKPQT XKEVKOU WPFGT the age of 11 that have been sexually and physically abused, and women and teenagers that have been victims of attacks committed by serial rapists. Knowing that I was able to give a sense of peace and justice to children who were being molested, or women who were being violently raped, made the tough parts of my job worth it. What impact do you want to make on the community as a county judge? I want to assure that all who appear before me feel as if they have had their day in courtâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;whether the ruling is in their favor or not. Not having the opportunity to be heard is what frustrates most people who appear in court. I also want to assure that the law is followed and justice is served with a sense of compassion. What are some of your bucket list goals? Being a judge has always been at the top QH O[ DWEMGV NKUV #PQVJGT IQCN + JCXG KU VQ open more Urban Promise Miami centers in various inner-cities within Miami-Dade County.

n June 14, South Florida Luxury Guide hosted its fourth annual Women of Style & Substance Pamper & Pledge | Purchase with a Purpose event at Jungle Island. The evening honored six businesswomen in our community for their leadership and dedication to local charitable causes: Orianne Collins, representing the Little Dreams Foundation; Karen Elmir, representing the Little Lighthouse Foundation; Nikki Noya, representing Dress for Success Miami; Soledad Picón, representing United Way of Miami-Dade; Michele Reese, representing Young Patronesses of the Opera; and Emily Zubizarreta, representing Day of Caring for Breast Cancer Awareness.
Orianne Collins, Karen Elmir, Nikki Noya, Sylvia Pool, Lynette Janac, Soledad Picón, Michele Reese and Emily Zubizarreta
More than 300 guests were treated to a fun evening of pampering thanks to Sean Donaldson Hair and Beauty Schools of America. They also “purchased with a purpose“ as they shopped for products and services from more than two dozen local vendors and placed bids on an array of silent auction items; 15 percent of all purchases went directly toward one of the six represented charities (buyer’s choice).

After 16 years as Miami’s favorite designer consignment store, here’s why our Consignors keep coming back: Unlike larger chains, our focus isn’t volume, our focus is YOU. We give individualized attention to each and every item. Less in-house pricing competition means you get what your bags are really worth. We provide home pick-ups and Closet Cleanouts. We offer customized commission structures because not all bags or Consignors are the same. We have two established retail locations staffed by seasoned Luxury Experts.
Consign with us and see why bigger is not always better!
