As January signals the beginning of equestrian season in Palm Beach County, it made sense to devote the issue to the western communities’ prolific horse scene, most notably the Winter Equestrian Festival and high-goal polo. Whether you plan to tailgate at the International Polo Club or watch the nation’s best hunter/jumpers perform at the International Equestrian Center, our pages will guide you through the fine points of the sports, from the fiercest competitors to can’t-miss events.

Our cover subject this month is Carlitos Gracida, son of legendary polo player Carlos Gracida, who was killed in a polo accident five years ago. Being born into a polo dynasty comes with a lot of expectations, and Carlitos has risen to the challenge admirably. Not only is he blazing his own path on the polo field, but he and brother Nano have also taken over the family wine business and have founded the Gracida Legacy Foundation to introduce youth to the world of polo. Doing it all with passion and drive is a Gracida trait, but the determination to be a humble warrior first and foremost is uniquely Carlitos. Read all about this remarkable young athlete in “Guts, Glory, Gracida” on page 78, and be sure to watch for him on the field this season.

This month we also were fortunate to have exclusive access to “Downton Abbey: The Exhibition” at CityPlace for a fashion shoot. The show’s beloved sets, combined with period-inspired resort looks styled by fashion editor Katherine Lande, were brought to life by Danny Cardozo’s exquisite photography. Turn to page 88 for a thoroughly modern interpretation of what it means to be “To the Manor Born.”

And for a bit of fun, flip to “Cookie Time” on page 104 and marvel at the dishes some of our favorite local chefs have created using Girl Scout cookies. As you contemplate yet another box of Thin Mints, check out this fascinating show of epicurean creativity. A decadent dessert martini made with Samoas? We’ll definitely drink to that.

Enjoy the issue—and all the exciting diversions January brings.

Nicknamed the “Sport of Kings,” polo has been a fixture in Palm Beach County for the last several decades.

The area gained a footing within the international polo scene with the opening of the Gulfstream Polo Club in 1923. Fast-forward more than 95 years and Wellington is now a mecca for winter polo play and equestrian competitions. This community comes alive in January, when hundreds of riders, players, and equine enthusiasts flock to South Florida for the season. Turn the page to see what’s in store for 2019.

INSIDER

When it comes to Wellington polo, the International Polo Club Palm Beach is about as iconic as it gets. Its much-loved Sunday polo program runs from December 30 to April 21 and offers numerous ways to enjoy the action, ranging from stadium seating to tailgating tents. Its 20-goal tournaments are scheduled for December 30, January 3-13, January 11 to February 10, and February 16 and 17. Highlights from its 22-goal lineup include the C.V. Whitney Cup February 13-24 and the U.S. Open Polo Championship from March 27 to April 21. (ipc.coth.com) Over at Grand Champions Polo Club, the winter season will see tournaments from 6 to 40 goals as well as the debut of the 26-goal World Polo League. A handful of the sport’s most famous 10-goalers—such as Adolfo Cambiaso and Juan Martin Nero—are scheduled to participate across four tournaments: the All-Star Challenge (February 6-17), the Founders Cup (February 20 to March 3), the Palm Beach Open (March 6-24), and the Triple Crown of Polo (March 27 to April 14). (gcpolo.com)

Both International Polo Club Palm Beach (inset) and Grand Champions Polo Club (below left) host high-goal polo.

Everything Equestrian Within the equestrian community, South Florida is synonymous with one thing: the Winter Equestrian Festival. From January 9 to March 31, the Palm Beach International Equestrian Center hosts dozens of hunter/jumper shows featuring some of the sport’s brightest stars. One of our favorite WEF pastimes is the Saturday Night Lights series, taking place every Saturday from January 12 to March 30. These Grand Prix show jumping competitions begin at 7 p.m. and are free to attend. Special installments include the Great Charity Challenge on February 2 and the $500,000 Rolex Grand Prix on March 30. (pbiec.coth.com)

POLO PRIMER

1. The Basics: There are four players per team on the field, which measures 300 yards by 160 yards.

Teams switch goals after each point to counteract wind and turf conditions. There are six periods, or chukkers, per game, with each lasting seven minutes.

In November, the Cultural Council of Palm Beach County unveiled The Satellite, a new pop-up exhibition and event space located in CityPlace in West Palm Beach. The Satellite acts as a cultural amuse-bouche, presenting a small sampling of county arts to whet one’s appetite. In addition to functioning as a visitor information center, The Satellite hosts an art and design lecture series and presents special programming from the Palm Beaches’ top arts orgs. This pop-up is also home to “Reimagine,” an exhibition that showcases solo artists as well as tidbits from the Cultural Council’s current and former exhibits at its Lake Worth headquarters. The Satellite is free to visit and open Thursday to Sunday through the spring. (palmbeachculture. com/satellite)

KERRY BURKHART

It’s a Date

Some people have the remarkable ability to turn tragedy into action.

Take the young activists of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, who’ve made it their mission to reform the nation’s gun laws. Now, inspired by this same group, Boca Raton resident Barb Schmidt is doing her part to equip the next generation of change-makers with a platform to make a difference.

Last year, Schmidt joined forces with Florida Atlantic University to form the Barb Schmidt Fellowship, a program that helps student leaders develop the skills, resources, and insight needed to spark and sustain a social movement.

During this school year, 28 high school students from Palm Beach and Broward counties are attending weekend classes at FAU with the goal of fostering their own call to action.

At the end of the fellowship, each participant will receive six college credits and $1,000 to continue their efforts.

“I’m so excited about our future just working with them,” says Schmidt, who is tapping into her own experience with social movements to better these students. “They’re hungry for this opportunity to be able to make a difference and have their voices be heard.”

For more than 30 years, Schmidt has been a dedicated practitioner of mindfulness and meditation, forming the nonprofit organization Peaceful Mind Peaceful Life as a means of activating her belief that outer peace begins through inner peace. “The greatest impediment to living the life you really desire is how you feel about yourself,” says Schmidt.

“Our deepest desire is that these kids can start trusting and loving themselves completely.”

In addition to meeting with Schmidt to learn about mindfulness and self-care, the fellowship students work with FAU faculty and social influencers to turn their passion into action. As Schmidt notes, their interests touch upon some of today’s most pressing issues, including women’s rights, the environment, bullying, and Black Lives Matter. “Whatever [it is] they’re being called to do, they are truly stepping in with both feet and are incredibly passionate about it,” she says.

The application for the 2019-2020 Barb Schmidt Fellowship will be available early this year. As the program evolves, Schmidt hopes to offer more life-changing opportunities in an effort to “build the leadership, movement, and activism skills [the students] desire and that they’re going to need to change the world, because that’s what all of them want to do. They want to change their communities and their world.” (fau.edu/barb-schmidt-fellowship)

MORTGAGE STRATEGIES for today’s competitive real estate market

Industry-recognized Financial Advisors with Tiano, Armour & Smyth Wealth Managers at J.P. Morgan Securities share key insights.

Buying a home can have a long-lasting financial impact. Just as you make investment decisions based on the benefits and long-term risks, it is important to treat mortgage decisions the same way.

“Making mortgage decisions without fully considering your financial and life goals may limit your options,” says Sal Tiano, Managing Director and CoHead of Tiano, Armour & Smyth (TAS) Wealth Managers. The group partners with J.P. Morgan’s Mortgage team, which is deeply familiar with the complex balance sheets and non-standard income flows of wealthy individuals.

“The mortgage landscape continues to evolve, and clients are looking for options beyond traditional mortgages,” says Dan Alter, Head of the J.P. Morgan Securities Mortgage Advisory team. “As one of the largest and most respected jumbo mortgage lenders, we look across a client’s entire balance sheet to optimize and structure debt to provide innovative financing strategies designed to fit each client’s personal circumstances.”

STAYING COMPETITIVE IN TODAY’S HOUSING MARKET “One of the first things I tell our clients is the importance of being marketready when the right home comes along,” says George Epstein, Head of J.P. Morgan Securities Banking & Lending. J.P. Morgan provides buyers with a fully underwritten conditional approval that goes above industry standards. Having a pre-approval in hand enables buyers to move quickly and expedite the closing process when they find the property they desire.1 Making an all-cash offer can give homebuyers an edge in a competitive bid situation, but owning a home outright may not be the best use of financial resources. A technical refinance—arranging for a mortgage after purchasing a property for cash—may be an alternative. “Some of our clients have bought homes for cash using a securities-based line of credit, and then refinanced

FOR MORE INFORMATION, PLEASE CONTACT:

within 90 days of the purchase,” says Mr. Epstein. “Working with J.P. Morgan, the homeowners were able to refinance the home, pay off the credit line and lock in competitive rates on long-term mortgage financing.”

CONSIDER A PLEDGED ASSET MORTGAGE “One option clients have taken advantage of is the J.P. Morgan Pledged Asset Mortgage” says Louise Armour, Managing Director and Co-Head of TAS Wealth Managers. This mortgage strategy allows clients to pledge assets in their J.P. Morgan portfolios in lieu of a cash down payment. With the securities and home as collateral, borrowers may qualify for up to 100% financing. Assets can also be pledged on behalf of a qualified family member (parent, spouse or child), without having to co-sign a loan. “We’re seeing a number of clients turn to the Pledged Asset Mortgage as part of their estate planning strategy,” adds Ms. Armour.

STRUCTURE YOUR OWNERSHIP TO YOUR ADVANTAGE Your real estate investments and the way you finance and structure them are a significant part of your financial plan. There may be compelling reasons, beyond privacy and liability protection, to own a property in a revocable trust or limited liability company (LLC). Using an LLC, for example, may also simplify the administration of your estate.

“One of the advantages of working with our team is access to our Wealth Management partners,” says John Smyth, Executive Director and Co-Head of TAS Wealth Managers. “They’re former tax and estate attorneys, and they’re always ready to meet with our clients to discuss how best to structure assets in light of a client’s estate planning and financial objectives.”

Sleight of HAND

By Katherine Lande

Is it vrai or is it faux? Bags and shoes from Christian Louboutin’s Spring-Summer collection beg the question with delicate digits emblazoned in leather, manicured in rouge, and adorned with sparkly rings. Look too quickly at a ballet flat in motion and optical tricks will lead you to believe the former. Reminiscent of Elsa Schiaparelli’s surrealist designs, this cheeky display of trompe l’oeil demonstrates that an illusion can be just as chic as the real thing.

Wyoming Wonderland

Bask in the state’s all-season splendor while luxuriating in the heart of the WILD WEST in Jackson Hole

FOUR SEASONS

By Paul Rubio

065_ESCAPE__0119.indd 65

A natural paradise of mountains, meadows, geysers, and hot springs, Wyoming’s northwest parklands are arguably the nation’s most magnificent. At the core of this extreme majesty lies Jackson Hole, the famed valley carved between the Teton and Gros Ventre mountain ranges.

This gateway to the unspoiled Grand Teton and Yellowstone national parks is peppered with all the trappings coveted in modern Wild West exploration: craft breweries, farm-to-table restaurants, world-class accommodations, and alfresco activities. Here we spotlight ample reasons to make Wyoming your next American adventure.

In between luxuriating at the Four Seasons Resort and Residences Jackson Hole (right), venture into Yellowstone and Grand Teton national parks, where American buffalo and various bears roam free, and vibrant panoramas are commonplace.

FOUR SEASONS

FOUR SEASONS

ESCAPE

THE GREAT OUTDOORS Skyscraping, snowcapped mountains carved by glacial retreat; the colorful and steaming fury of North America’s largest supervolcano; exposed rock from inner earth painted by the geological time clock over millions of years; the arboreal reach of classic subalpine forest juxtaposed against upper-altitude emerald lakes. Grand Teton National Park and Yellowstone National Park have rightfully earned status as some of the world’s most stunning parklands.

Add to the mix the prolific wildlife that thrives in these environs—from grizzly and black bears to bison and wolves—and the result is a region that’s as topographically and ecologically diverse as it is visually exciting. Indeed, this is America’s nucleus for mind-blowing photo safaris and scenic drives.

But these parklands and the areas beyond aren’t just for observing; they’re also for playing. Regard66

less of the time of year, northwestern Wyoming flourishes as a center for outdoor enthusiasm.

As autumn’s falling leaves make way for winter’s magical white panoramas, blanketed mountains transform into award-winning ski slopes where sledding, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing abound. As colors explode in spring and summer, swimming, hiking, and fly-fishing rule the land under brilliant blue skies.

Naturally, the balance between physical pursuits and picturesque journeys varies by season and personal preference. While both national parks remain open year-round, the majority of entrance points and interior roads close during the harsh winter months and reopen in late spring. For most visitors, winter tends to be all about skiing and après-ski fun in and around Jackson Hole, perhaps with a brief jaunt into Grand Teton National Park. However, come May, the land once again grows verdant and welcomes newborn wildlife.

By summer, flora and fauna reclaim center stage across both parks as furry residents frolic and fraternize in what feels like extended recess.

This is also prime time to view Yellowstone’s extraordinary geysers and hot springs. The park’s active volcanic turf is home to half of the world’s geysers, none more predictable than Old Faithful, which erupts like clockwork every 91 minutes. At the Grand Prismatic Spring, gawk at the got-to-seeit-to-believe-it natural pool painted in every hue of the rainbow thanks to the ethereal bacteria living in it. Farther north in the park, Yellowstone’s own “Grand Canyon,” a 1,000-foot-deep depression, wows onlookers with its towering waterfalls.

THE GREAT INDOORS The Four Seasons Resort and Residences Jackson Hole (fourseasons.com/jacksonhole) capitalizes on the multiple dimensions of Wyoming’s great outdoors. Nestled in Teton Village, one of the valley’s many idyllic micro-towns, the property boasts rusticchic, lodge-style rooms, each with a private balcony overlooking the mountainous terrain. A Native American design motif pays homage to regional heritage, underscored by wood, stone, and leather accents.

The resort’s location translates to immediate access to the best ski slopes as it’s steps away from the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort tram, which delivers riders to the mountaintop in nine minutes. Getting into Grand Teton National Park is also a breeze, with the Granite Canyon entrance a three-minute drive away. All-season hiking trails dot the property’s perimeter, and an in-house outfitter provides naturalistled safaris (typically by vehicle in spring, summer, and fall, and by small aircraft and snowmobile in winter). A full-service spa, heated swimming pool, and three bars and restaurants—including the sublime mountain steak house Westbank Grill—mean that even during the most inclement weather, days at the Four Seasons Resort and Residences Jackson Hole are never short of glorious.

Beyond Teton Village, the charming town of Jackson offers a cocktail and dining scene that rivals most big cities, complete with a laid-back, Western twist.

In the early evening, kick back over seasonal beers in the tap room at Roadhouse Brewing Co. (roadhouse brewery.com), sampling an ever-changing selection of ales, hazy IPAs, and stouts. Afterward, enjoy some live music and contemporary gastropub fare at sister establishment Roadhouse Pub & Eatery, which also features a five-barrel brew house with 30-plus beers on tap.

FOUR SEASONS

Rooms at the Four Seasons Resort and Residences Jackson Hole feature private balconies. Other resort amenities include a full-service spa (above) and the on-site Westbank Grill (below).

POWER FILE HIGH ROAD

Diamond in the Rough

Named after the largest diamond ever mined, the Rolls-Royce Cullinan ventures off the beaten path IN STYLE

By Howard Walker

Eleanor is leading the way. With her head forward and gossamer wings outstretched, Rolls-Royce’s iconic Spirit of Ecstasy hood ornament provides the perfect sight line as we claw our way up Snow King Mountain.

Considering her surroundings, maybe Eleanor should have traded the flowy gossamer for a Patagonia jacket and some Merrell hiking boots.

Piloting a $325,000 Rolls-Royce up this 7,800-foot-high ski mountain is a surreal experience. Here, in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, rocks and gravel crunch under the car’s 22-inch tires, its long hood tilting skyward.

Why attempt such an ascent? Because the folks at Rolls-Royce are keen to demonstrate that their Cullinan SUV, the first ever Rolls-Royce 4x4, has serious off-road chops. And from where I’m sitting—luxuriating in waterimpervious, box-grain leather—they’ve done a spectacular job.

PRICE: FROM $325,000 ENGINE: 6.75-LITER TWINTURBO V-12 POWER: 563 HP TORQUE: 627 LB-FT TRANSMISSION: 8-SPEED AUTOMATIC 0-60: 5.0 SECONDS TOP SPEED: 155 MPH LENGTH/WIDTH: 210/79 INCHES WEIGHT: 6,069 POUNDS WHY WE LOVE IT: BECAUSE THERE’S NO FINER WAY OF TAKING THE ROAD LESS TRAVELED.

Because the Rolls-Royce mantra for the Cullinan is “Effortless Everywhere,” this incredible hulk—all three tons of it—goes off the beaten track with the same kind of panache it exudes when cruising the highway.

At the press of a button, the Cullinan will rise up on its self-leveling air suspension, soften the throttle response of the big V-12, and work out whether it’s dealing with mud, snow, wet grass, or loose gravel and rocks.

In the mile-and-a-half climb to the Snow King summit, using the oh-so-narrow, rockstrewn service trail, the Cullinan displays all the sure-footedness of Michael Jackson doing the moonwalk, making its way to the top without putting a tire out of place. Later in the day, hammering along rutted forest roads, splashing through streams, and crunching through early season frost and snow, this SUV delivers a magic carpet–like ride.

The majority of Cullinan buyers will never even dream of getting the tires dirty or risk scratching that mirror-like paintwork taking the road less traveled. But it seems they’re prepared to spend big on a vehicle that gives them the absolute peace of mind that they could if they so desired.

Besides, it can get pretty snowy on the way up the mountain to Aspen, Gstaad, or St. Moritz. And with the ability to wade through water

almost 2 feet deep, the Cullinan can return drivers to their Miami penthouses during inevitable South Florida flooding.

Yet when you set this off-road stuff aside for a second, what you’re left with is a Rolls-Royce without all the pomp and circumstance of the flagship Phantom on which the Cullinan is loosely based. There’s no need for a peak-capped chauffeur here, and owners will have no problem using the Cullinan as a daily driver. In fact, once you’ve driven it, chances are it will take wild horses to drag you out from behind the wheel.

That’s because it drives like a dream. Under the hood sits a reworked version of the Phantom’s twin-turbo 6.75-liter V-12 cranking out 563

hp and 627 lb-ft of torque, all delivered from just 1,600 rpm.

Squeezing the throttle is like triggering a nuclear reaction.

Just watch as the rear of this 6,069-pound leviathan dips slightly, Ms. Eleanor perched on the trademark Parthenon grille rises up a tad, and the Cullinan lunges at the horizon. You’ll be speeding toward 60 in 5 seconds flat, and the acceleration won’t quit until it hits 155 mph.

The car’s silence throughout this showmanship is otherworldly.

Rolls-Royce developed foam-filled tires specially for the Cullinan.

There’s also 220 pounds of sound-deadening insulation lining the cabin, and all the glass is double-glazed. You’re likely to hear more noise in a bank vault at midnight than you would inside a Cullinan at speed.

Criticisms? I still struggle with the boxy, almost cartoonish styling.

For me, the roof looks way too high, the waist too low—though that provides tremendous visibility for those inside. That being said, you still wouldn’t want to park it next to a Range Rover.

What you have here, however, is truly the Rolls-Royce of SUVs; a vehicle so capable, so luxurious, so exquisitely built, nothing else comes close. «

When Desert Storm veteran Lynette Bell’s follicular lymphoma went into remission, she chased her dreams to Florida and pursued a career in photography. However, during a routine doctor’s visit here, she learned her cancer had returned.

Fortunately, she had access to Phase 1 Clinical Trials at Florida Cancer Specialists. In the past 3 years, the majority of new cancer drugs approved for use in the U.S. were studied in clinical trials with Florida Cancer Specialists participation.

Today, Lynette’s cancer has surrendered, proving that when hope and science join forces, great outcomes can happen.

Carlitos Gracida carries on his father’s LEGACY in the polo world while forging a path all his own

By Liz Petoniak | Photography by Juan Lamarca

As the clock ticks down to the two-minute mark, the energy on the field at Grand Champions Polo Club in Wellington shifts into high gear. The 2018 World Cup final match between the defending champs, team Palm Beach Illustrated, and Grand Champions is tied up in the last chukker, with 10-goaler Juan Martin Nero—one of the top players in the world—having just scored a penalty shot for Grand Champions. Players and ponies crowd around the umpire anticipating the ball drop with bated breath. Oh, and there’s a $100,000 prize on the line.

“IF YOU WORK HARD, YOU WILL MOVE FORWARD, NO MATTER IF IT’S IN POLO OR ANYTHING ELSE.”

Carlos “Carlitos” Gracida Jr., the 4-goaler and son of the late MexicanAmerican polo player Carlos Gracida, edges out the other ponies to win the bowl-in and storms down the field. He’s hooked by an opponent, but Grand Champions misses their chance. Teammate Tommy Collingwood picks up the ball and sends it into range. Carlitos, mounted on a speedy bay pony named Cartier, takes off like a rocket and hits an offside neck shot. It’s textbook in its beauty, but it’s a shot Carlitos easily could have missed had his timing been off by fractions of a second. Fortune is in his favor, and the ball soars through the goal to win the game.

“When you’re near the goal, my father’s theory was ‘just hit at the goal,’” explains Carlitos. “I knew I was on a good horse, and if my teammates could get the ball moving, I had a lot of confidence that I would win the play.”

The pressure was mounting, and Carlitos rose to the occasion, displaying a sense of intuition reminiscent of another great athlete: his father. Considered by many to be the best polo player who ever lived, Carlos Gracida was a force to be reckoned with on the field and boasted an unparalleled knack for scoring during clutch moments. When he died unexpectedly after a polo accident in 2014, lovers of the sport worldwide grieved the loss.

Suddenly Carlitos, who turns 28 this month, and his younger brother, Mariano, or “Nano,” were without their father and mentor.

“They had to mature very quickly,” says Guillermo “Memo” Gracida, Carlos’ brother and frequent teammate. “They chose to follow in the footsteps of their father, and I believe Carlitos and Nano have done a fantastic job carrying on the family name and trying to make it in the polo world.”

Currently, both brothers play in Wellington during the winter season. Carlitos spends the summers in Colorado at Aspen Valley Polo Club, while Nano, also a 4-goaler, splits his time in Hawaii and Monterrey, Mexico. Like Carlitos, Nano’s career has been picking up steam. The 25-year-old has won multiple prestigious 20-goal tournaments and was recently named MVP of the season-opening Tackeria Invitational.

“Mariano has always been the quiet one, the loving one, the teddy bear. Like we say in Mexico, he’s the golden coin—everybody loves him,” says Memo, whose son, Julio, is also a 4-goal player. “Carlitos is forceful, determined, and dedicated, the fighter or warrior of the two of them. They complement each other very well.”

Together, the brothers oversee the luxury brand their father launched, Gracida Legacy, which encompasses a collection of wines from Spain’s La Mancha region. While polo is the Gracidas’ personal passion, the wine, Carlitos notes, aims to provide for the family, namely his 4-year-old sister. In 2018, they started the Gracida Legacy Foundation to help community youth achieve their dreams through learning the values taught by good horsemanship. Carlitos hopes welcoming

kids into the world of polo could lead to mentorships with the sport’s most successful stars and patrons.

“We try to be the best people we can be,” he says. “If my brother and I represent our family legacy the right way, all these other things beneath it will follow.”

As for Carlitos’ aspirations for the upcoming season, he’s working diligently to raise his handicap. Yes, Carlitos is a fourth-generation polo player, but he doesn’t rely on his family name alone, and you won’t find him out sipping Gracida wine at Palm Beach hot spots during the season. He applies the same discipline with his horses’ training and diet as he does with himself: limited sugar, lots of water and protein, and 5:30 a.m. wake-up calls in order to give 100 percent to the sport, sunup to sundown.

“The horses are my life,” he says. “To be good at [this] and win tournaments, your lifestyle has to revolve around what you do. You have to do it all day every day. The more you do it, the better. Athletes sacrifice a lot, but for us it doesn’t feel like sacrifice.”

Years and years of work go into making a game-winning goal appear effortless. For Carlitos, it’s all beginning to pay off as he consistently proves that intuition on the field can be both inherent and practiced.

Now, he’s setting his sights on the U.S. Open and igniting a polo legacy of his own.

“My father’s legacy is his legacy,” he says. “We all have our own paths and want to be the best we can be. Life for me is about being a good person, doing the right thing, and working hard. Wherever that takes me, I know I’ll be in a good place. I’m grateful for a lot of the things my father left me, but I think the rest is for him to take with him.”

While his father may always be the voice in his head telling him to take the shot, Carlitos acknowledges there’s much to learn from different perspectives and disciplines. He has even trained in dressage and jumping to discover new ways of connecting with his string. Today, he studies contemporary polo greats such as Adolfo Cambiaso and Facundo Pieres—not to imitate them, but for inspiration on how to continue developing his style on the field and training methods back at the barn. “[Carlitos] is playing well above his handicap. He’s one of the most underrated 4-goal players in the world,” says Memo. “He is making a name for himself, you know? He’s not Carlos’ son anymore. He’s Carlos Gracida Jr.” With solid horses, good field circulation, and the ability to perform under pressure, Carlitos is poised to shine in the many polo seasons ahead. “If I prepare myself mentally and I prepare my horses, how far can I go? I don’t know. I don’t think about that,” he says. “[Polo] isn’t something that I worry about, it’s something that I love.”

Only time will tell the legacy Carlitos and Nano leave behind, but one thing is certain: Carlos Sr. would already be proud of how far the brothers have come. «

As a lifelong equestrian, devoted wife and mother, and budding fashion entrepreneur, LOURDES DE GUARDIOLA leads a hectic and passion-filled life

arly childhood experiences can shape the path one travels in life. As a little girl growing up in Wellington, Lourdes de Guardiola admired the trail horses her parents had and wanted some to call her own. At age 4, she purchased two ponies from the side of a dirt road and began riding, spurring a passion for all things equestrian.

For the next 14 years, she traveled across the United States and Canada competing in lofty equestrian circles. Throughout it all, her mother was always by her side. “My mom took me everywhere, and we had so much fun being together,” says de Guardiola. “She taught me to be independent and use my drive for competition to be the best.”

“HORSES AND COMPETITION ARE ONE SIDE OF ME, AND I DISCOVERED FASHION AND CREATING THINGS WAS THE OTHER. I NEED BOTH FOR FULFILLMENT.” ers, and equitation, and also met her future husband, show jumper Michael R. Morrissey, on the equestrian circuit.

“He proposed in the fall of 2010 by flying home from a show in Kentucky and popping out of the bedroom with a ring,” she says. “I was so surprised and excited.

We capped the night with a great dinner in Palm Beach at Café Boulud.”

They married and joined forces to run Imperial Show Stables, a global show jumping and sales business in Wellington. They continued to travel in the summer and fall and hunkered down in Wellington during the winter and early spring. Gradually, de Guardiola stopped competing, turning instead to coaching and mentoring junior riders.

Above: De Guardiola’s son, Lucas, and husband, Michael R. Morrissey, guide a horse on their Wellington property.

Previous page and below right: De Guardiola wears a LJC Linen dress, Katja Bentzen St. Barth necklace, Monica Granados pearl wrap bracelets, and Sam Edelman boots. Her daughter Mischa wears a Petit Milou dress and Monica Granados necklace.

Wellington was another constant in de Guardiola’s childhood—although, at the time, her hometown was in a state of flux. Her father, George, was born in Cuba but made his career locally in urban planning and zoning. He was a key player in Wellington’s development, including exclusive properties like Palm Beach Pointe and The Wellington Club (now The Wanderers), among others.

De Guardiola witnessed Wellington grow from a small town to a place filled with excitement. “There is so much to do now that people move here for six months or more and consider Wellington home,” she says. “It is a total destination with so much activity, restaurants, and shopping that Saturday night finds everyone here.”

While Wellington was coming into its own, de Guardiola was finding her footing as an equestrian. She racked up world-championship wins in hunters, jump-

“I loved mentoring and coaching young people because it gave me such a sense of pride,” she explains. “When a student trusted me and succeeded, I was very happy. We developed a bond, and it gave me such a good feeling [that] will carry me through life.”

Despite this passion, de Guardiola found herself pulled toward other pursuits, namely co-running Imperial Show Stables, starting an equestrian-oriented fashion retail business, and mothering her three young children.

Graceful, stylish, and articulate, de Guardiola added fashion to her daily mix after discovering a love for it at age 18 when she began working at Rhythm, a former boutique in downtown West Palm Beach. She subsequently learned about merchandising, designing, and buying during business trips to New York.

“I have always been creative and liked art and photography,” she says. “Horses and competition are one side of me, and I discovered fashion and creating things was the other. I need both for fulfillment.”

The self-described workaholic was itching to design baby clothes and open a retail concept after operating a successful pop-up last season at Wellington’s International Polo Club. In November, she launched Milou Palm Beach, a chic clothing and accessories boutique in The Esplanade on Worth Avenue. “I found a loyal following and always wanted to be in Palm Beach because it is close to home,” she notes. A portmanteau of the beginnings of her and her husband’s first names, Milou is filled with cotton linen dresses, skirts, shirts, jackets, hats, jewelry, shoes, leather bags, and more.

“Fashion is a passion where I curate equestrianinspired, seasonless pieces for the woman who travels the world, and I also create baby dresses and outfits in several styles inspired by my children,” de Guardiola says. “My newest design project is a line of scented candles.”

Since adding the demands of fashion design and running an online and retail boutique, she admits her life is crazy. “I am busy 24/7,” says de Guardiola, who lives with her family on a Wellington farm that includes a beautiful barn with 24 stalls. “I love everything about horses, fashion design, operating a boutique, doting on my family, and raising my kids the way my mom raised me.”

If anyone can sustain such an active and diverse schedule, it is de Guardiola, who her friends liken

“LOURDES CONTINUES TO PUSH HERSELF HARD TO MAKE HER GOALS A REALITY.” —Michael R. Morrissey to a chameleon. “Lourdes can go from fishing with a bunch of Cubans, to the stables with people she works with, to black-tie galas, and is 100 percent at home in each of these scenarios,” says her close pal Alexis Posada TeStrake.

At home, Morrissey and de Guardiola share the family duties— from bathing the babies, to caring for their two golden retrievers, to running errands. However, de Guardiola admits she leaves the cooking up to her husband. “He is a great chef and prepares dinner every night,” she says. “His ribs are fabulous.”

During their evenings at the farm, they play music, entertain friends, host client dinners, and spend time with their children. “My kids have distinct personalities,” de Guardiola says of Lucas, 14, Mischa, 2, and Delphine, who will turn 1 in March. “Mischa commands the room, eats up attention, and is a daredevil, even riding my childhood wooden rocking horse standing up the way I did.”

Baby Delphine is calm, collected, and happy. “Even when I have had a bad day, she looks at me and smiles, and I know everything is okay,” says de Guardiola. “Lucas is creative and loves theater and photography. He also encourages me daily on my fashion career.”

For the past 10 years, the family has spent summers on a large farm in Lexington, Ken86

tucky, where Morrissey jumps and both spouses work. The kids go to playgrounds, pick berries in bountiful orchards, and enjoy the beauty of the land. She returns to Wellington every August so Lucas can attend school, but then comes and goes every other week to watch Morrissey jump until November when they settle in Wellington. “I am used to this, I have done it all of my life,” she says. “I love constant travel and meeting new people.”

Her efforts to do it all have not gone unnoticed—especially by her husband. “Lourdes continues to push herself hard to make her goals a reality,” Morrissey says. “I couldn’t be hap

pier or more excited to see what the future holds for her and her new business.”

While riding for pleasure every Friday morning, de Guardiola has the chance to slow down, contemplate her aspirations, and count her blessings. As a dedicated equestrian, she hopes the kids will get on saddle, too. So far, Lucas prefers skateboarding and basketball, but Mischa loves horses.

“With parents who are pros, we would like for the kids to share our passion for horses,” she says. “But whatever happens, Michael and I believe in each other and fight for our family. We are happy to say that it all works.” «

TRUE COLORS With an eye toward making the most of a small space, BRINSLEY MATTHEWS packs serious style and attitude into his Palm Beach guest apartment

By Judy Martel | Photography by Nick Sargent Shaded by green buttonwood trees, the lane to decorator Brinsley Matthews’ Palm Beach guest condominium feels like a portal to a languid, Southern setting straight out of a Tennessee Williams play. But once inside the one-bed, one-bath unit, the exuberant interior delivers a tropical punch that is pure Palm Beach. Cozy and intimate with just the right dramatic touches, the decor perfectly matches the charming, worldly sophistication of Matthews, who serves as executive vice president of Dorothy Draper & Company, the lauded 94-yearold design firm known for its emphatic use of color.

Situated in the middle of Ibis Isle—a slice of land that juts into the Intracoastal south of Mar-a-Lago—the guest condo is on the second floor of a small, late1960s building with only six units. It’s a hidden residential gem close to downtown amenities yet far enough removed to feel like an oasis.

Matthews purchased the condo, adjacent to his own larger, two-bedroom, two-bath unit, from the artist Deborah Stern, who resided there seasonally

when not in London. “We had many little chats in here, and when she moved out she left me this bronze sculpture,” he says.

The black-and-gold piece, reminiscent of an Art Deco palm tree, rests in a place of pride in front of the sliding glass doors to the balcony overlooking the water. “Living here is like being on a cruise ship on the Danube, except it’s the Intracoastal and the view doesn’t change,” Matthews quips, as he sweeps his hand to encompass the living room and balcony. Indeed, the interior does sport the trappings of an inveterate traveler, with diverse objects from all over the world happily coexisting. The tranquil view of the water is a constant invitation to sit back and relax.

Matthews has a unique talent for designing interiors that tell a visual story; in this case, the narrative reflects his multifaceted life. In addition to studying fine and decorative arts and design at Sotheby’s Institute of Art in London and Trinity College and University College in Dublin, he is also a published poet—an appropriate pursuit considering he was named for the eighteenth-century Irish bard Richard Brinsley Sheridan. Beyond decorating and poetry, Matthews has also raced cars in Europe on the Formula V circuit. His disparate background and passion for people have become part of his design DNA. “I like joy in people, and I like to bring that out,” he says. “In decorating, I want to bring out their story and how they want to live.”

Within this guest condominium, every item’s provenance

Matthews chose pieces that tell a story, like the large-scale painting that got its start as a vaudeville show backdrop (above right) and the Dorothy Draper cabinet full of china. Opposite page: Vintage photographs of Palm Beach frame a wood vanity.

is meaningful to him. He points to the floor-to-ceiling painting he found in upstate New York as the “pièce de résistance” of the living room. “It looks a little Italian, with the cypress trees,” he says. “It was part of a backdrop for a vaudeville show, and it actually folds up so you can put it under your arm and travel with it. And then it opens up into this nice surprise.”

With residences in Ireland, London, and New York, Irish-born Matthews considers Palm Beach home. His thoughtfully curated guest condo is designed to highlight his travels as well as the laid-back vibe of the Florida he calls “paradise.”

The Aegean blue tiles on the kitchen floor were carried back from a trip to Mexico.

The water lily painting in the bedroom is

by Marlee Brown, a Mackinac Island artist with a shop at the Draper-decorated Grand Hotel. Headboards on the twin beds are covered in a Matthews-created fabric called Pacific (ocean blue with silver threads reminiscent of the surf) while bedspreads echo the tropical theme through a Robellini palm print.

And then there are the iconic Dorothy Draper touches that pay homage to his employer. A vintage display cabinet in the kitchen from her 1960s Viennese furniture collection holds china. Living room sofas are covered in the iconic bright-green banana-leaf Brazilliance fabric, and the use of shocking color accents the space without overwhelming it—typical of the Draper philosophy that people shouldn’t shy away from color in interior design.

Matthews painted the condo’s walls a cool white to provide a backdrop for his vibrant art collection. “I let the art pieces do the talking,” he says. One of his favorites is a whimsical painting by an unknown artist from the 1930s or ’40s that depicts a goggle-eyed painter holding his palette, caught in the midst of

sketching a portrait of a glamorous woman. “It’s happy and fun,” he says.

“What more can you ask for?” With his attention to detail and a bit of design humor, Matthews hung the painting facing a bronze sculpture of a woman’s nude torso.

Old Palm Beach photos are tucked in alcoves: black-and-whites of President John F. Kennedy and his wife, Jacqueline, sailing off the island; another of the cereal heiress Marjorie Merriweather Post, a legendary Palm Beach socialite and matron of Mar-a-Lago. There are lots of fun flourishes, too, but the space doesn’t feel crowded, and Matthews can lovingly recount the story behind every object, even down to a porcelain teacup. “All these little treasures are like children to me,” he says. “I care for them and worry about them.”

Matthews admits that the one thing he abhors in design is the mediocrity of sameness. “I think we should always delight in the unusual,” he explains. “Design doesn’t cost any extra. You can always choose the creative over the expensive. Many times, when the ability and the budget are there, firms will spend a lot of money building something very average.

I’m not a rebel, but I think people should keep their eyes open.”

He likes to play with scale and maintains that decorating small spaces doesn’t have to translate into dainty design. “That’s the mistake people make,” he says. “The same design principles apply whether the space is small or big. It has to function, and everything has to be to scale. You need focal points, and big things can work in small spaces because they add interest. The last thing people need when they’re decorating is money.

They need creativity.”

Matthews’ clients live around the globe, and he loves to travel. This results in a state of constant motion, with Matthews continually learning, observing, and cultivating friends—many of whom make their way to Palm Beach to bask in his warmth and conviviality. “I love people,” he says. “I love laughter and I love company. I love to expand my world.” « 102 PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED

EDUCATION ROBERT GOLDBERG — THE BENJAMIN SCHOOL

Creative. Confident. Courageous. These are the tenets Benjamin students embody on their path to becoming independent, collaborative, and fearless learners. Those three pillars of identity could be applied in equal measure and force to Head of School Robert Goldberg.

Goldberg, who has displayed remarkable resilience while battling his own medical issues this year, has spent his 11year tenure at Benjamin advancing a growing curriculum and expanding state-of-the-art facilities.

He has been at the helm of the school’s groundbreaking on a 13,171-square-foot STEM Center that will open its doors in the spring of 2019, reflecting Benjamin’s commitment to growth and innovation. Goldberg was also instrumental recently in converting the Upper School library into a state-of-the-art, multidisciplinary Learning Commons.

Goldberg, like Benjamin’s founders Marshall and Nancy Benjamin, believes good citizenship is the cornerstone of a well-rounded education. He holds this tenet in equal importance with a rigorous, college preparatory curriculum.

He embraces the Benjamin spirit of educating the whole child.

Goldberg received his undergraduate degree from Temple University and his master’s from Rutgers and studied abroad in Spain and France. He has devoted the past 46 years to a career in education.

She came to Palm Beach County, alongside her plastic-surgeon husband, with a vision to build a premier plastic surgery practice in Palm Beach County. As the eyelid-specialist of the Hass Plastic Surgery duo (now trio), her intimate understanding of the eyelid and surrounding anatomy combined with intense attention to detail sets her apart as the one to go to for eyelid and brow surgery. In addition, since the early days of Botox, Hass has stayed abreast of all that injectables have to offer in slowing the signs of aging. “I use my ‘X-ray vision’ to visualize the end result,” she says. “I’m either taking away skin, fat, or wrinkles around the eyes with surgery or Botox, or adding volume with fillers; it’s like solving puzzles all day long. I get to experience joy on a regular basis when patients look in the mirror and love what they see. I am honored to be a part of that process.”

JEWISH PHILANTHROPY

MATT KERNKRAUT — JEWISH FEDERATION OF PALM BEACH COUNTY While Matt Kernkraut may be the face of Jewish philanthropy in the Palm Beaches, his true passion is inspiring generous individuals to be their most philanthropic selves and address the most critical issues facing people in the Jewish community.

After an impressive 15-year tenure as a senior development leader at Harvard University, Kernkraut is now the chief development officer for Jewish Federation of Palm Beach County. Referred to as the “city hall” of the Jewish community, Jewish Federation responds to pressing needs here at home, in Israel, and in 70 countries around the world.

Last year alone, generous community members fueled this impact by contributing an astounding $37 million to the Jewish Federation through its annual campaign, foundation, emergency relief efforts, and corporate philanthropy. With his genuine desire to learn about people, Kernkraut is quickly ensuring everyone can look to the Federation for guidance on the community’s greatest needs and the opportunity to make a meaningful difference.

MARITAL AND FAMILY LAW

BENJAMIN T. HODAS, JEFFREY D. FISHER AND ZACHARY R. POTTER — FISHER POTTER HODAS, PL Two powerhouse marital law boutiques merged in 2018, bringing partners Jeff Fisher, Zac Potter, and Ben Hodas into one firm. The partners are all trial court litigators. In the last year alone, they tried to judgment 10 cases with a total amount in dispute of more than $1.75 billion. While most of the firm’s cases are handled quietly and privately, the firm is routinely mentioned in news reports of the biggest family law cases in the state.

In a recent feature story titled “How to Hide $400 Million,” The New York Times observed that the partners have formed a “highly creative” private “wealth squad” that transcends the normal family law practice. The biographies of the seven lawyers who work for the firm feature alma maters such as Harvard, Yale, Princeton, and Penn, as well as experience with the U.S. Department of Justice, which is indicative of the firm’s philosophy that high-stakes cases are won through both “brains and brawn.”

“Christy is truly an expert in her profession,” says Catherine Warren, who hired her in 2014. “Her priority is always guest satisfaction and her results are unparalleled.”

The NEW GUARD CAPEHART

Change is afoot at The Colony Hotel in Palm Beach. The former Polo Lounge recently debuted an interior update and menu transformation along with a new name, CPB. The welcome facelift includes a complete renovation of the bar area and a refreshed palette of crisp whites and soft beiges with bright pops of citrus and greenery. It’s an energizing space in which to savor cuisine from the restaurant’s new executive chef, Tom Whitaker, whose contemporary American plates are equal in their artistic presentation and flawless execution. Think: succulent wagyu steaks from Florida’s

099_TASTEOPEN_0119.indd 135

Jackman Ranch, osetra caviar served over avocado tartare, and lobster thermidor with fennel, orange, and sweet potato (pictured).

While Whitaker primarily draws inspiration from local ingredients and The Colony’s rich history, some dishes ooze influence from his English heritage. His treacle tart, for example, is a modern take on a traditional British dessert that combines golden syrup, buttery shortbread, and lemon zest for a caramelized sensation that lingers long after the last bite. At CPB, out with the old and in with the new tastes oh so satisfying. (thecolonypalmbeach.com) —Liz Petoniak

TASTE Q&A

FARM-TO-TABLE EVOLUTION

PAPPHOTO

A little over five years ago, Farmer’s Table opened and transformed the Boca Raton food scene with its brand of healthy, farm-fresh cuisine. Today, it continues to prove that when food comes from clean, sustainable sources, it can be as delicious as its deep-fried or butter-laden counterparts. Recently it debuted a new menu that emphasizes more vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options as well as daily specials that allow culinary director Michael Schenk to get creative with produce from the on-site garden. Here, Schenk shares his perspective on the changing farm-to-table landscape and his culinary convictions. (farmerstableboca.com) –L.P.

PAPPHOTO

New menu items at Farmer’s Table include the Boca poké tuna with sesame tamari sauce and a rice noodle salad, and kombucha brick chicken with forbidden black rice pilaf.

PBI: How do you think farm-to-table and healthy eating has evolved over the years?

Schenk: Millennials are starting to live a little healthier and are more conscious about what they’re putting into their bodies. Farmer’s Table plays a tremendous role in that.

Since we are a semi-casual place, we make dishes that are still favorites on everybody’s list, like meatballs or braised short ribs, but that automatically—not even as an option— provide the customer with what’s better [for him or her]. We teach people that they can simply start a lifestyle and there’s no real sacrifice because it can be just as good.

How do you make food delicious without butter, which other restaurants rely so heavily on?

The sources have always been there, but I think they have been very underutilized at other restaurants where fat is the flavor carrier. We flavor or thicken our sauces in a natural way, such as braising with vegetables, using organic superfoods like acai and pomegranate powder, and working with fresh herbs and greens from our garden. It’s essentially not a challenge at all to accomplish a good flavor pro-

file because nature provides us with everything we need. I haven’t missed heavy cream or butter a single bit since I started here.

Describe your food philosophy.

If it looks great and tastes fantastic it goes on the plate. [I enjoy] being provided with an ingredient and finding all of the different possibilities to create with it, and to give the customer something that’s still recognizable but has a surprising twist. I always say we have to treat food just like all of the other industries treat their products. You want the new iPhone every year. I don’t ever want to stand still and say it’s a great dish, so let’s leave it.

What are the top items to try from the new menu?

Our poké tuna with rice noodles is outstanding. It provides such a powerful flavor and yet it’s so lean and clean. I put quite a lot of work behind the ramen bowl because it’s very important that the broth and all the ingredients complement each other. Then another favorite is the Root to Stem salad, with watermelon, a crunch from the toasted pumpkin seeds, tabbouleh, and roasted butternut squash.

COCKTAIL CORNER

“Our cocktail program took a little bit of South Beach, added a little bit of New York, and brought it to Jupiter,” says Dave Levbarg, beverage director at 1000 North. “Many of our cocktails have stories behind them.”

A good example is The Final Word, a riff on a pre-Prohibition cocktail called The Last Word. The original version contained equal parts gin, green Chartreuse, lime juice, and maraschino liqueur. At 1000 North, the drink highlights both the herbaceous quality of the Chartreuse and the color and flavor of the added cherry brandy. “It’s a gin cocktail for people who don’t normally drink gin,” says Levbarg. “It’s clean and well-balanced, and it appeals to guests on many different levels.”

OFF THE VINE

FEELING HOT

Climate change could have a huge impact on the wine industry in the very near future

G

By Mark Spivak

rapevines may not have political opinions, but they are deeply affected by climate change.

At first, global warming was a boon for wine production: Vines yielded more grapes, and those grapes ripened earlier, resulting in a crop that was richer and more pleasing. Most of the world’s wine grapes are grown in a band between the thirtieth and fiftieth parallels, with a significant concentration at the forty-fifth parallel north, halfway between the equator and the North Pole (Oregon, Bordeaux, the Rhone Valley and Provence, Central Otago in New Zealand, etc.). By 2050, many researchers expect those regions to be inhospitable to wine grapes, or at least to the varieties currently grown there; Pinot Noir will be impossible in Oregon, and Bordeaux will be better suited to Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot. Some areas, such as

mainland Australia, won’t be able to make wine at all.

What’s a vintner to do? Short of grabbing his or her violin and rushing to the deck of the Titanic to join the ensemble, there are some practical solutions available.

MOVE TO HIGHER GROUND. This is happening in Burgundy, which made its reputation on the fickle Pinot Noir grape. While Burgundian winemakers are only moving several hundred feet up the hillsides, it’s not unusual to find vineyards at 4,500 to 5,000 feet in parts of Argentina’s Uco Valley. Winemakers are discovering that increased heat and sunlight are melting more snow, which is leading to more water for irrigation.

THROW SOME SHADE. There are viticultural techniques that can help minimize the effects of rising temperatures. These include canopy management, night harvesting and quicker transport of grapes to

146 PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED

146_POUR2_0119.indd 146

11/28/18 3:01 PM

winery facilities, the planting of cover crops, maximizing irrigation through treatment and recycling of water, and delaying the ripening process by increasing crop load. Some of these techniques are already being used in regions such as Spain, where the effects of heat are acute.

VOTE WITH YOUR FEET. As temperatures grow warmer, wine production is thriving farther north and south—to Pennsylvania, northern Michigan, and the southern Australian island of Tasmania.

The most famous example is the south of England, which is rapidly becoming famous for sparkling wine production. Even the French, who have long viewed the British wine industry with contempt, are changing their tune. Taittinger and Vranken Pommery have purchased land in Kent and Hampshire, respectively, and other major houses are rumored to be shopping around, too.

PLANT DIFFERENT GRAPES. Scientists have engineered hybrid grapes and crosses designed to thrive in extreme cold and heat: Vidal Blanc and Vignoles in Michigan, and varieties such as Blanc du Bois here

in Florida. Since the aroma and flavor profiles of these grapes are unfamiliar, and very different from Chardonnay or Cabernet Sauvignon, this may seem like a draconian scenario to many wine drinkers. By 2100, though, it may be the only option we have.

SWITCH CROPS. Forty years ago, the concept of legal marijuana was unthinkable; 20 years ago, the idea that pot could threaten wine sales would have been laughable. Recreational cannabis is now legal in nine states and the District of Columbia, and medical marijuana is permitted in 30 plus D.C. The wine industry is reacting to the threat by co-opting the competition. In late 2017, beverage giant Constellation bought a stake in the Canadian cannabis company Canopy Growth, and by mid-2018 Constellation reported it had already made $1.3 billion on the deal. When life hands you lemons, you can make some tasty lemonade. ÂŤ

As climate change makes certain regions inhospitable to winemaking, vintners are relocating to areas like Tasmania (above).

Pattern PLAY

To showcase her new collection of patterns for renowned fabric and wallpaper company Schumacher, interior designer Celerie Kemble of Kemble Interiors was tasked with transforming a New York City rental apartment from a largely white, boxy space into a homey room infused with emotion. To make matters more challenging, Kemble was not able to use wallpaper—one of her favorite tools—due to owner restrictions. This meant the fabrics, some pre-existing art, and vintage furniture pieces purchased on Chairish would need to define the aesthetic. “I wanted the room to feel fun, feminine, and friendly, but not little girly or matchy-matchy,” says Kemble. To create a sense of unity and impact, she utilized coordinated colors and patterns on everything from the bedding to the lampshades and even a vanity wrapped in wallpaper. The wide trim on the sheer curtains pulls the eye upward to the full height of the room while also emphasizing the tall ceilings and large windows. “This project was a study in what pattern, color, art, and a few decorating tricks can do to improve an otherwise banal space,” notes Kemble.

Come to ORDER

A professional organizer shares STRATEGIES FOR DECLUTTERING in the new year While the closet may be the Mount Everest of home organizing projects, there are numerous other decluttering expeditions that boast big rewards when conquered. Korinne Belock, a one-time political campaign organizer turned professional interior organizer, puts her planning skills to practical use as the founder of Urban Simplicity. Here, the part-time Palm Beacher divulges her secrets for bringing maximum order to the home. (urbansimplicity.co) PBI: What is your personal philosophy for home organization?

Belock: My philosophy is rooted in simplicity. The best organizing solutions are usually the simplest ones. Any system that involves more than one or two steps from start to finish is not likely to happen. My goal as an organizer is to understand how you can best live in and use your space. The first step to understanding and creating those simple systems is editing so that you surround yourself with items you use and love.

What rule should people apply when deciding what to keep versus what to throw out?

The first rule is to ask the tough questions: Do I use it? Do I love it? Do I need it? It’s likely that in these three short questions, your decision

whether to keep or toss an item can be [made].

As a second rule, be selective when bringing items into your home. Avoid buying things because you found them at a great price. If it hasn’t been on your radar, chances are you don’t need it and won’t use it.

What is one place people tend to overlook when decluttering?

The bathroom. Just like an organized closet, when cosmetics are organized, you can quickly grab what you need to get ready in the morning. There are two main points to keep in mind. The first is to organize products you use often in the most accessible place in your medicine cabinet and bathroom drawers. The second way to organize beauty products is by type. This works particularly

well for items you use on a weekly or monthly basis, instead of products you use daily.

What is your recommended schedule for organization?

Think of organizing as a practice, not a project. If you consider organizing a practice, it’s something you’re always doing in small increments so [it isn’t] just another overwhelming project to put off until next month. Every item in your home should have a place. As a practice, you’re always returning items to their home, so things never get too out of control. That being said, season changes are a good time to take a look around and focus on areas that might need to be refreshed.

BELOW, BELOCK OFFERS TIPS AND TOOLS FROM THE CONTAINER STORE TO ORGANIZE KEY SPACES (CONTAINERSTORE.COM)

KITCHEN CABINETS Tip: Kitchen organization is all about efficiency, so reconsider the placement of every last dish and cooking utensil. Tool: Elfa mesh easy gliders, $32-$42

LAUNDRY ROOM Tip: Who actually enjoys doing laundry? To make it bearable, use bins that are decorative and functional. Tool: Whitewash rattan storage bins, $20-$30

PANTRY Tip: Make the pantry accessible for the whole family. Use bins and labels and set up systems, like a kids’ snack area, for simplicity.

Tool: Guzzini Italian pantry bins, $13-$18

TECH AREA Tip: Go vertical with devices to keep counters clear and cords organized. Identify a shallow drawer near the charging station and stock with back-up chargers and devices organized in small bins. Tool: Five-section premium acrylic collator, $35

Specializing exclusively in Jupiter Island sales for nearly a decade, Susan took over from Waterfront’s matriarch, Joan Thomson, who worked the Island exclusively from 1974 to 2009. Susan’s background, her family’s longtime Jupiter Island residency, 10 years as a Manhattan advertising executive, and 20 years as an interior designer made her the logical choice to succeed Joan.

“I can call on many people to assist me to ensure my listings receive optimum exposure to reach the most appropriate buyers and their agents,” Susan said. She credited her teammates as essential to her success. “I have a core team that consists of a dedicated buyers’ agent and an associate who assists with executing the mechanics and administrative details of the complex transactions these properties represent.” Susan said the advantages to sellers of her three-pronged team are speed and efficiency.

Also supporting Susan are more than 20 people in Waterfront Properties’ in-house print, digital marketing and publishing division. The group manages multiple award-winning property exposure websites that last year won an international award for best real estate innovation. In 2016, the Waterfront website brought Susan the buyer of a $37 million oceanfront estate. The publishing team produces exquisite custom print and digital property marketing collateral. Top architecture and interior design photographers showcase properties in high gloss, magazine-quality photo narratives that tell the story of the home and its attributes.

SPEED TO MARKET “I operate from a sense of urgency,” Susan said. “We begin immediately exposing a property to the right buyers from around the world. We schedule a multi-day photo shoot. As soon as photos are taken, the home goes immediately into MLS as well as Waterfront’s property exposure websites. There’s no ramp up. We don’t hold

With so many buyers coming from out of town, agents for buyers who want to see homes for sale on the Island look to Susan as a tremendously knowledgeable resource.

Susan provides a running commentary while she tours the Island with the buyer agent and buyer about Island history, zoning, and available properties, information the buyer would likely not otherwise know.

To reach foreign buyers who spend nearly $25 billion annually on Florida real estate, Waterfront maintains an exclusive relationship with London-based Mayfair International Realty, the largest luxury realty office in the UK. Through 376 affiliate European offices, Waterfront teams are on the ground across Europe, actively marketing Jupiter Island properties direct to foreign buyers.

Additionally, as a member of LRE®, Susan meets several times each year with another exclusive group of international brokers. They represent 70 countries and account for over $300 billion in sales annually.

The results of these combined efforts and resources are record-setting sales as more Jupiter Island homeowners choose Susan. One of Susan’s currently listed properties is 255 South Beach Road, a 2.5-acre, 10,000+ sq. ft. oceanfront home which sits directly on 221 feet of prime Jupiter Island beach frontage. It’s truly one of Jupiter Island’s premier properties due to its high elevation and gently sloping lawn, which provide unobstructed, panoramic views of the turquoise water.

Waterfront Properties owner Rob Thomson commented, “Discretion is fundamental to our work. However, I can say Susan has been instrumental in many of the Island’s noteworthy transactions over the last decade.” He went on, “She has absolutely no ego. She’s one of the first to arrive and one of the last to leave. Her work ethic is off the charts.”

Ivy Larson shares cleaneating recipes like vegetable lasagna (right) in her new cookbook.

Queen of CLEAN

DAVID SCAROLA

When North Palm Beach resident Ivy Larson was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis at the age of 22, she embarked on a lifelong health journey that led her to adopt an anti-inflammatory diet in order to manage her symptoms. Along the way, Larson learned to cook flavorful, gourmet meals that fit her new lifestyle. She began documenting her adventures on her website, Clean Cuisine.

Together with her husband, Andy, who also is a surgeon, Larson shares recipes, workout videos, and research on nutrition and other health topics. The couple has also authored a handful of books and launched a fitness DVD. Twenty years after her diagnosis, Larson is symptom-free and a trusted authority on clean eating. Now she’s kicking off the new year with a new tome, Clean Cuisine Cookbook: 130+ Anti-Inflammatory Recipes to Heal Your Gut, Treat Autoimmune Conditions, and Optimize Your Health ($34.95, Victory Belt Publishing), available January 1. Inside, readers will find cleaned-up versions (i.e. dairy-free, gluten-free, and anti-inflammatory) of familiar recipes, with each dish highlighting a fruit, vegetable, or superfood. “Instead of focusing on the ‘bad’ ingredients, we try to focus on the things you should eat,” she says. “Indirectly, by the time you eat all of those things, you won’t have room or cravings for the bad stuff.” (cleancuisine.com)

NEW HEIGHTS

Amp up your fitness routine in the new year with UNIQUE CLASSES that remedy workout boredom DripFit Founded by Boca Raton local Tyler Anderson, DripFit isn’t a run-of-the-mill high-intensity fitness class. What sets this group workout apart is that it balances strength training with sprints on the Shredmill, a free-run treadmill positioned at a permanent 15 percent incline previously only available to professional athletes. “The incline forces correct form, so it’s actually great for people with injuries,” says Anderson. Though it may seem intimidating, DripFit is suitable for all ages and fitness levels, and a limit of 16 participants allows for one-on-one attention to form and detail.

Classes throughout the week zero in on different muscle groups while the Saturday session works the entire body. And, as the name suggests, you will be dripping sweat by the end. (dripfit-boca.com)

Goat Yoga It’s difficult to refrain from laughing when a baby goat jumps on your back during child’s pose. At Downward Goat, yogis are playfully reminded that their practice doesn’t always need to be taken so seriously as they interact with the Loxahatchee farm’s 14 goats in an outdoor class. Led by instructor Kim Depasquale, owner of Breathe Salt & Yoga in Jupiter, the sessions appeal to both beginner and advanced practitioners and pop up four to five times a month at various locations in South Florida. “The goats are fun, smart, and have their own personalities,” says owner Korinne Johnson. “They make everybody happy.” (downwardgoat.com)

High-Intensity Pilates For those already familiar with Pilates’ ability to build long, lean muscles, Club Pilates offers two classes that add heart-pumping moves to the mix for greater results and calorie burn. The first, CP F.I.T., transforms a traditional Pilates session into a fast-paced, boot camp–style workout by combining Pilates and high-intensity strength-training interval exercises.

Meanwhile, CP Cardio Sculpt incorporates a jump board to the Reformer for a low-impact way to raise heart rates. “It’s similar to jumping on a trampoline but you’re on your back,” explains Amanda Gomez, owner of Club Pilates Abacoa and the new West Palm Beach location.

“Pilates is a great way to increase your mindbody awareness, prevent injury, and correct posture.” (clubpilates.com)

Gluteus Maxout As the cultural obsession with a toned backside shows no sign of waning, Life Time in Boca Raton launched a class that takes leg day to the next level: Gluteus Maxout. The workout begins with a warm-up to hip-hop and rap hits, followed by progressively challenging sets of lower-leg exercises with dumbbells and resistance bands, plus more innovative plyometric moves meant to “max out” lower-body muscle groups. “The class flies by,” says instructor Danielle Chiles. “You’re scorching a lot more calories by introducing resistance and strength training, and increasing mobility by getting into those little muscles.” (lifetime.life)

TREATMENTS

Beauty Buzz

Those who keep up a rigorous beauty routine know that all of the serums, facials, and treatments can easily add up.

Inspired by the “look good, feel good” culture in South Florida, Miami mogul Jacqueline Dascal Chariff recently launched CosmeticPerks, a membership platform that offers discounts on medspa treatments for $9.99 a month.

Think of it as a class pass for HydraFacials, microneedling, laser hair removal, Botox, and CoolSculpting with licensed and board-certified Palm Beach County dermatologists and plastic surgeons.

“The doctors we’ve vetted are the top in their industry, and we’re proud of our provider network,” says Dascal Chariff.

“Wellness isn’t a fad. We’re living longer and everyone wants to look and feel great.” (cosmeticperks.com)

Joy Ride Kick off equestrian season by getting back in the saddle with fun horse experiences for riders of all levels

WHAT ARE THE TYPICAL ELEMENTS CHANGED IN A FEMALE RHINOPLASTY SURGERY? 1. THE DORSUM. That is the straight portion of the nose above the tip. The dorsum has a bony (upper) and cartilaginous (lower) part. Generally, for an attractive feminine nose, they have to both be carefully reshaped so that the final result is a refined dorsum with a slight scoop.

2. THE TIP. In many cases, this portion is wider, more prominent and less turned up than what the attractive feminine nose would feature. Therefore we often need to move the tip closer to the face, turn the tip a little more up - we call that deproject and rotate. It is very important to accomplish this in a way to achieve a natural attractive feminine outcome - not too much and not too little.

3. THE NOSTRILS. Their size and shape often adapts to what is accomplished with the dorsum and the tip but when needed we perform maneuvres to specifically address the shape and to reduce the size of the nostrils.

4. ENDONASAL EXAM - We routinely evaluate the internal anatomy of the nose to assess and to improve the nasal breathing during the procedure.

Palm City Polo Club

POLO LESSONS: Get in on the polo action by taking a swing at the sport.

Owned by former 7-goaler Joey Casey, Palm City Polo Club provides a welcoming environment for polo lessons at its world-class facility. Beginners start with riding skills and practice on a hitting cage before moving on to perfecting their swing on horseback and learning strategy. For advanced players seeking to up their game, the club hosts clinics annually in May and low- and mediumgoal tournaments throughout the season. Boynton Beach (palmcitypolo.com) ENGLISH RIDING: Those looking to get back in the ring after many years off, or who have always wanted to learn how to horseback ride, don’t have to resort to lessons with children. Free Spirit Riding Academy & Show Stables has an ongoing beginner adult rider program with both private and semi-private lessons with other adults. Instructors emphasize riding skills and horsemanship, and because Free Spirit is a show stable, riders can progress to hunter jumper instruction as well. Wellington (riding-in-wellington.com) BEACH RIDES: There’s nothing better than experiencing the surf and sand from a saddle. Locally, Hutchinson Island is the only beach that allows horseback riding on its shores. Fort Pierce–based Tours on Horseback (beachtours onhorseback.com) leads riders through Frederick Douglass Memorial Park and onto the beach, while Desert Rose Ranch (desertroseranch-fl.com) in Jupiter organizes day trips for riders. In addition, those with their own horses can apply for annual or weeklong permits for horseback riding on the beach through St. Lucie County (stlucieco.gov).

TRAIL RIDES: See Palm Beach County from a new perspective during a scenic trail ride. Alicia Grace welcomes first timers and experienced riders to her barn, Pink Flamingo Stables, for 30- to 90-minute Western-style rides. Grace takes beginners as young as 2 years old on 3-mile routes through Lake Worth’s rural dirt roads and neighboring horse and tree farms, while more advanced riders will walk, trot, and canter the canals.

MIND BODY

KIDS’ MENTAL HEALTH CHECKLIST A parent’s influence is vital to ensuring kids grow up to be both healthy and happy. Half of all adult mental disorders begin by age 14, according to the National Institute of Mental Health, so a caring, understanding presence can be key to establishing and promoting psychological health. “The mental well-being of children is sometimes an afterthought to their physical health,” says Ofer Shustik, a primary care physician with Coordinated Health West Palm Beach who’s treated multigenerational patients for more than 20 years. “While doctors are trained to diagnose fevers and obvious symptoms, we must pay close attention to things that may be affecting a child’s mental health, which can lead to physical problems down the road and create an unhealthy cycle.” Here, Shustik shares tips for keeping your child’s mind as healthy as his or her body. (wpb.coordinatedhealth.com)

Talk to them about drugs and alcohol. Kids who are feeling depressed, lonely, or isolated are more likely to abuse alcohol and drugs. Being proactive about mental well-being and openly discussing peer pressure can reduce the likelihood of this type of experimentation.

Encourage proper diet, regular exercise, and enough sleep. Kids being “hangry” is a real thing, and lack of proper nutrition over time can cause fatigue, problems with concentration, and even behavioral and cognitive growth delays. Stick to regular snack and meal times as well as a consistent bedtime (kids need a minimum of 10 hours a night) and activity schedule. Help your kids find at

least one physical activity they enjoy and join them for a bike ride, swim, or game of tennis.

Call us at 561-440-5388 to learn more.

Practice the right discipline. Kids need boundaries. Avoiding discipline to remain your child’s friend actually confuses them about behavioral expectations and makes them feel less safe. At the same time, studies show that corporal punishment like spanking or shaming and yelling can be detrimental to mental well-being. Instead, reward good behavior and remain consistent with expectations.

Our joyfully inspired waterfront community is just blocks from downtown.

Here, you’ll find yourself surrounded by the love, respect and compassion that have been hallmarks of our faith-based service to discerning seniors for more than 50 years.

Parent with mental health in mind. Teach them time management and how to balance school, recreation, and rest so they don’t become overwhelmed. However, don’t be a helicopter parent either. Succeeding at school, making friends, and developing talents through their own efforts helps kids feel confident and more able to deal with stress. Also, listening to your child without negative reactions and emotions will allow them to safely open up and be honest about their feelings.

For serious concerns, contact your child’s doctor. The National Institute of Mental Health reports one in five children lives with a serious mental health disorder, so follow your instincts and consult your physician if you suspect your child is struggling.

They can conduct tests to rule out physical ailments and provide resources for psychologists, counselors, and other mental health professionals.

The forecast for residential real estate in Florida appears sunny this year

By Judy Martel In the decade since the market imploded, economic and stock market rebounds have propelled investment in Florida real estate, with buyers looking for second and even third homes. But while rising interest rates and low inventory might have applied pressure to some potential sales, a new, additional element emerged last year to potentially goad eager buyers toward higher-priced properties: tax reform.

In 2018, Florida saw a spike in sales of properties priced at $1 million and higher, according to Brad O’Connor, chief economist at the Florida Realtors trade association. Typically an increase in luxury home sales is mirrored in other markets throughout the country, he adds, but this time Florida stood apart. The most likely reason, he believes, is because of the new tax law, which applies to 2018 returns.

Under new rules for itemizing, state and local income and property taxes are only deductible up to $10,000. In Florida, where there is no income tax, the full $10,000 deduction can be applied to property tax.

“People may have been buying a place they could later establish as a domicile,” says O’Connor.

SUPPLY AND DEMAND When it comes to closing a deal, frustrated buyers have hit the wall of low supply and high demand, depending on the type of property and its location. While the entire state has been plagued by low inventory, the shortage is more acute in properties priced below $300,000, which is often where investors are scouring for good buys. There is a better supply of available multifamily residences, O’Connor notes, reflected in prices that are rising much faster than on single-family homes in most of the state. But in an example of how fickle real estate is, O’Connor points to the luxury market as a “different animal” because the high inventory of property priced from $300,000 to $1 million is not fueling price increases in the same way it is on multifamily residences. “We’re not seeing enough building in Florida, but where we see the most is in the luxury market, especially in Southwest Florida and parts of South Florida, so the supply is tamping down price increases to some degree,” he adds.

Compared with Palm Beach County and the rest of the state, Collier County’s statistics are somewhat out of step. Price increases

were steep last year on single-family homes and—unlike elsewhere—they fell on townhomes and condominiums. The reason is that Palm Beach County has a greater diversity of housing than Collier County, says O’Connor. Palm Beach County has a lot of luxury properties, but they make up a much smaller percentage of its housing stock compared to Collier County. “Since so much of Collier’s market is luxury, its overall statistics are much more driven by luxury trends in sales and prices,” he says.

THE FED’S RATE HIKES Aside from tax reform, another potential short-term boost to property sales is the Federal Reserve’s schedule of raising interest rates, which began in 2015. Buyers might have some incentive to secure property sooner rather than later, says O’Connor, especially since the Fed is on track to hike rates further this year. “If buyers do need financing, now is probably the time,” he notes.

All in all, the real estate market outlook so far appears fairly rosy, even with interest rates and prices on the rise and the low supply of new property in certain markets and sectors. “As long as the economy keeps going strong and people want to buy, Florida has an established presence,” O’Connor says. “It’s been a destination for money for a long time and we cater to that. Plus, there is no income tax and we have the sun and the water. It’s really that simple.” «

Does art imitate life, or does life imitate art?

For sculptor Seward Johnson, the former definitely holds true. The 88-year-old finds inspiration in the mundane moments: A young man taking an afternoon nap, an older gentleman reading on a park bench, or a musician busking for tips can spur the world-renowned artist to create one of his signature bronze statues. From January 5 to April 28, the McKee Botanical Garden in Vero Beach will mount an exhibition of Johnson’s work, including 20 pieces from his Celebrating the Familiar series.

This collection of life-size figures captures the organic nature of the original pose with remarkable realism and attention to detail. The exhibit also features Johnson’s much-lauded Embracing Peace, a 25-foot-tall recreation of the iconic 1945 image of a sailor and a nurse celebrating the end of World War II with a passionate kiss.

MODERN MARVEL

The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum stands as a beacon of arts and culture on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. Inside architect Frank Lloyd Wright’s innovative inverted-ziggurat building painted in pure white, visitors are treated to an array of colorful modern and contemporary masterpieces.

From January 17 to March 2, the Lighthouse ArtCenter in Tequesta will explore the evolution of this remarkable architectural icon in an exhibition entitled “Building Frank Lloyd Wright’s Guggenheim.” The Guggenheim Museum curated this never-before-seen show, which comes to Tequesta through the support of Solomon R. Guggenheim’s grandson, who winters in the area. Newly discovered photos chronicle the 16-year history of the museum’s design and construction— from Wright’s hundreds of sketches and half-a-dozen architectural drawings, to the building techniques developed to realize his vision.

In addition to this special exhibit, the Lighthouse ArtCenter will also display the work of two lauded Florida architects, Scott Hughes and Jane Davis Doggett, in its main gallery. (lighthousearts.org)

A HUBBLE STORY Generously Sponsored by Leon and Alma Sadow

Tuesday, January 22, 2019 • 11:15 am–12:45 pm In May 2009, a team of astronauts, which included John Grunsfeld, flew to the Hubble Space Telescope on space shuttle Atlantis. On their 13-day mission and over the course of five spacewalks, they completed an extreme makeover of the orbiting observatory. Scientific results from the new and repaired instruments hint at a bright scientific future for Hubble and will be presented in the talk, as well as a narrative of the adventures on orbit.

«

Few musicians are as synonymous with New Orleans as jazz trumpeter and singer Kermit Ruffins. The born-and-bred New Orleanian co-founded the Rebirth Brass Band while in high school, before striking out on his own and teaming up with his backup act, the Barbecue Swingers. Today, he stands as a proud arbiter of Big Easy music, culture, and food. On January 26, he’ll bring the sounds of Bourbon Street to Delray Beach when he performs at the Arts Garage Mardi Gras Ball. PBI recently caught up with Ruffins to discuss musical influences, his favorite food, and the sound and soul of New Orleans. (artsgarage.org) PBI: What’s one of your earliest musical memories?

Ruffins: My main listening point was Louis Armstrong. I remember buying a po’boy sandwich at this beautiful place, and the jukebox was there, and as I waited for my sandwich I played Louis Armstrong’s “When You’re Smiling.” I never heard a trumpet sound like that. I kind of lost it for a moment and started studying Louis Armstrong’s videos and all of his records. I just went crazy for Louis Armstrong, and up to today I still love that music with a passion.

Where in New Orleans do you most love to perform live?

I would have to say my bar [Kermit’s Treme Mother-in-Law Lounge] because it’s like being at home. It’s always a different crowd because it’s always tourists.

Every week those people rotate, and we never know who’s going to show up. David Simon [creator of The Wire and Treme] came in here last Thursday, and we had a

184_CALENDAR3_0119.indd 195

ball. You never know who’s going to come in.

When you appear on shows like Top Chef or Treme, what message about New Orleans are you hoping to convey to potential visitors?

One thing about New Orleans, we are some real spiritual people. We are overwhelmed with music and food and love and fun. And it just comes across on stage every time we strike up the band. It’s happy music, and that’s what we really do.

We play happy music.

In addition to being a musician, you’re also a foodie. What’s your favorite thing to cook and eat?

I grew up with a lot of wild food in my family, especially around the holidays and on any given Sunday.

We would always have raccoon and turtle or rabbit or deer or goat. My go-to thing that I really love to eat is gumbo. I make the best gumbo in the city, and I think I make the most expensive gumbo in the city, too. Everything’s floating in that gumbo.

Art WORLD

Curate your home and wardrobe in time for the LOCAL ART season

By Emily Pantelides With so much art to take in this month—from the Palm Beach Modern + Contemporary fair to Art Palm Beach—you’ll need to look and feel the part now more than ever. For a truly one-of-a-kind style statement, opt for a hand-painted dress from Wellington-based La Casa Hermosa. I’ve long believed shoes are works of art; in fact, I keep a pair of pink satin Pradas on display in my closet. Those of like mind will surely appreciate the Malone Souliers and Emanuel Ungaro collaboration that resulted in these polka dot pumps. January is also the perfect time to introduce new pieces to the home. Jimmie Martin’s sculptural dog is a multicolored masterpiece from across the pond, while Kerri Rosenthal’s bubble girl prints will bring a dose of whimsy to your collection.

Regardless of how you add art l FOR MORE FASHIONABLE to your life this season, just reBUYS, WATCH THE “EMILY’S PICKS” member the Henri Matisse adage, SEGMENT ON CBS12.COM. “Creativity takes courage.”
