StantonSoBe WHERE LUXURY MEETS FUN & CELEBRITIES

By Sven J. Bode

Not only is Miami one of Florida’s most coveted destinations, hundreds of celebrities call this exciting city home. Gloria Estefan, Jennifer Lopez, Lenny Kravitz, Madonna, and Matt Damon are among the elite who have helped make south Florida’s iconic vacation spot as equally famous and fabulous as themselves. E! Network filmed “Kourtney & Khloé Take Miami” right next door to the Marriott Stanton South Beach… your number one choice for the most luxurious Miami getaway.

Nestled next to the beautiful Marjory Stoneman Douglas Ocean Beach Park, Miamibased Key International’s 224-room Marriott Stanton invites you to enjoy a stay worthy of the celebrity life—whether for just a romantic weekend escape or an extended spring break retreat.

In 2015, Key International, owner of the Marriott Stanton South Beach, began a $22-million renovation to create what is now one of the most unforgettable Miami locales of unparalleled luxury. Stanton’s two-phase redesign transformed the boutique-style hotel into a Marriott International Inc. property with resort distinction, for those seeking an incomparable glimpse of South Florida.

Martin Brudnizki Design Studio, the brilliant New York-based architecture and design firm, spearheaded the Marriott Stanton’s renovation and brought the property a relaxing beach club atmosphere with midcentury décor that charmingly represents the Art Deco style of Miami.

beachfront living, beckoning you to explore the endless waters just steps outside. The shoreline meets sophistication in the ocean-inspired guestrooms, with spa-like bathrooms, private balconies opening to the ocean or the Miami skyline, and elegant décor that channels the soothing simplicity of the Atlantic in view.

Completed in January 2017, the first phase of the overhaul included upgrades to the hotel’s lobby, guestrooms and suites, and meeting rooms. The resort’s newly-designed 2,600 square feet of event space, including the oceanfront terrace and the resort’s ballroom, is the perfect picturesque location for weddings, executive meetings, or celebrations. This year, the Marriott Stanton unveiled the completion of the renovation’s second and third phases, which brought improvements to the property’s Starbucks, Azabu, Marriot’s Japanese restaurant, the spa, and the fitness center, even incorporating specialty training such as functional fitness, movement specialists, and yoga classes to the lifestyle center’s programs.

During your stay at one of the few resorts with direct beach access, you can begin your day by taking a walk on breathtaking South Beach and spend a few tranquil hours in a beach cabana, or make those hours exhilarating with the resort’s selection of watersports.

This majestic oasis on Ocean Drive is where chic, South Beach glamour within the heart of stylish Miami meets the splendor of the sea.

Classic and modern natural hues and earthy textures fill the atmosphere of the Stanton’s warm lobby with the calming echoes of

Bask in the sun at the Marriott’s two outdoor infinity pools, or treat yourself to an invigorating spa treatment, such as a marine algae facial or a hot seashell therapy. At the Stanton Spa, 1,500 square feet of stressrelieving sanctuary welcome you to a paradise of body treatments curated by Aroma Therapy Associates. Enjoy the ultimate relaxation of the spa’s collection of unique massages, facials, scrubs, and wrap treatments as you unwind your senses.

in mind. Personalized one-on-one sessions, programs centering on weight loss, sports conditioning, strength training, and group fitness and yoga classes led by professional instructors will meet all of your fitness needs while on vacation.

The dining options at Marriott Stanton bring you a wonderful taste of South Beach without leaving the property. Savor the flavors of Miami at Deco Blue Restaurant & Bar, where you can enjoy fresh seafood and amazing views of the Atlantic, and end your evening at Dolcezza to sample artisanal gelato and handmade chocolates.

While you’re soaking up the sun on the beach, visit Lola’s Surf Cantina, the parkside Mexican Restaurant, for a delicious lunch of authentic dishes created by Chef Richard Ampudia, a Mexico City native known as the “Godfather of Mexican Street Food.”

The Stanton’s Azabu, the Miami Beach location of New York’s famed Azabu sushi restaurant, boasts an innovative Japanese dining experience. Chefs Masatsugu (Masa) Kubo and Kenichi (Ken) Fujimoto combine quality ingredients and eye-catching presentation to fashion unique twists on Japanese classics.

The restaurant features various dining concepts, including a fullservice dining room and The Den, Azabu’s secluded sushi bar. In the Den, Tokyo-trained chefs serve sushi crafted with local and imported seafood, delivered fresh from Japanese fish markets. At Azabu, guests participate in an Izakaya dining style, ordering a tableful of sharable dishes, such as Robatagrilled Yakitori, Japanese fried rice, Udon, and other traditional Asian eats. For dessert, Azabu’s signature choice is the Japanese Raindrop Cake, a jelly made with Pearl Agar and water, served with kinako dried soy beans and Japanese brown sugar syrup. You can also enjoy a cocktail at Bar Azabu, which offers over 40 imported whiskies and sakes. The subtle, understated décor of natural elements and the quiet ambience of Azabu create the opportune place for a peaceful evening after a long day at the beach.

The Marriott’s exclusive location in SoFi—“South of Fifth”—provides guests with convenient access to the wonders of Miami’s shopping, dining, and nightlife experiences, as well as all the quintessential sights and sounds that make the sensational city the unique haven it has become.

Delicious cuts like Filet Mignon and NY Strip are perfectly paired with starters such as Lemon Garlic Shrimp and classic sides, including Four Cheese Macaroni & Cheese.

If you decide to take a nighttime stroll through South of Fifth and are in the mood for a drink, South Pointe Tavern is the place to be. As Miami’s Favorite Local Bar, South Pointe Tavern features the largest variety of spirits in Miami Beach and showcases seasonally curated cocktails like Old Fashioned, Negronis, Whiskey Bucks, and Margaritas. Be sure to try the Monkey Jacket, one of the

Tavern’s signature drinks, a cheeky combination of white rum, J. Wray and Nephew Overproof, banana allspice syrup, lime and pineapple juices, and tiki bitters. Stay for a snack and try some of the menu’s artisanal small plates, including ceviche, flatbreads, salads, and sandwiches. This bar is sure to make you feel right at home in Miami with its bistro-style atmosphere and nautical aesthetic.

Eat, drink, and relax with friends and loved ones as you savor the sophistication of Italian culture, or stop by for Sette Ostera’s signature weekend brunch.

Known for Miami’s iconic colorful murals and open-air street-art, Wynwood is one of the trendiest districts in the United States. Take in the vibrant beauty of this creative area of Miami with a Wynwood Buggy Tour, where you can ride around Wynwood and get up close to the wondrous sights of the Art District. Enjoy murals and Florida breezes from the comfort of the Wynwood Tours golf carts, as you sit back and snap pictures of your favorite works of art.

With all of the curious and cultural thrills in the Fifth of South area right nearby the Marriott Stanton, this resort will make your South Beach stay as easy, elegant, and enchanting as you’d expect in the captivating city that is Miami. In the heat of South Florida excitement, Marriot Stanton South Beach will treat you to a life of luxury—even if only for a weekend getaway.

IN THE HISTORIC HIGH COUNTRY at the Barnsley Resort Country roads, take me home…to the Barnsely Resort! Okay, so there’s a little twist on John Denver’s version, but it’s just as true and there’s no song that can explain the one-of-a-kind experience at the Barnsley Resort.

By Dana Damato

It’s been said that some of the most memorable destinations are hidden gems, and the Barnsley Resort is undeniably one of them. Tucked away in the Blue Ridge Mountains, just an hour north of Atlanta is not just a beautiful resort, but a historic estate and a one-of-a-kind sanctuary for outdoor enthusiasts. I’ve always been fond of the great outdoors, but I’ve never experienced a destination that encourages both luxurious southern comfort and getting (a lot) of dust and mud on your boots.

It’s the perfect duo and truly a unique experience for all who are looking for an adventure.

When I think back of the Barnsley Resort, I can only think that the property was nothing less than something out of a storybook. This 1840s estate is a destination that anyone can appreciate. Visitors have access to 3,000 acres of recreational choices such as a world-class Jim Fazio-designed golf course, Beretta Shooting Grounds that includes a sporting clays course, bird hunting, and horseback riding along picturesque trails. The best part of the resort are the awe-inspiring ruins from the original manor built by Godfrey Barnsley for his wife, Julia, which tower over the resort’s legendary gardens. With authentic, locally sourced cuisine, a boutique spa, and unparalleled Southern charm, Barnsley Resort offers an escape that’s just what you’d expect Georgia to be, and so much more. With the completion of the new Inn at Barnsley Resort, the property now has a total of 150 guest rooms and suites

When it comes to finding the perfect destination to visit, whether it’s a getaway for your family or simply a place to travel to solo, the Barnsley Resort accommodates the needs of any occasion. My experience was a little more on the wild side and I left with not only incredible memories, but with an adequate amount of knowledge in both hunting quail and how to properly aim at a clay disk while clay shooting.

The best part is that these resources are available to anyone who is looking for an adventure – no experience required!

Aaaah – the great outdoors. One would argue that the outdoor adventures at the Barnsley Resort could be the main event – I might have to agree. I do enjoy shooting guns, and the this is just the place for a gun enthusiast to pull the trigger. Whether you’re a sharp shooter or a beginner, there’s a place for you here. Take a shot at the 28-station clays course (or covered five-stand) to test your aim. Not only is this is one of the top sporting clay facilities in the Southeast, but it’s also Beretta’s official shooting grounds. It’s simple to spend a few hours out on the course. All you have to do it schedule your shotgun fitting and private instruction. You’ll be yelling, “Pull!” like a pro! A little further out is where you’ll find the 1800 acres of rolling hills and flat lands. Hunters can load up into one of the custom-built Jeeps with a personal guide and world-class hunting pups for a bucket list-worthy dove, quail, pheasant or turkey hunt, in season.

If you’re looking for something a little slower pace but just as exciting and beautiful, then go ahead and strap on your chaps and spurs (if you want to, of course) for a guided horseback ride through the wilderness. Amp up the ride with a romantic

home-cooked Southern fare. Serving breakfast, lunch and dinner, the restaurant offers Southern regional comfort food that’s delicious any time of the day, plus an extensive wine, craft beer and spirit list.

There are so many activities that you just won’t know what to do first! Other outdoor adventures includes golf. Set your tee time at the resort’s 18hole Jim Fazio-designed course, recognized as some of the fastest greens in the Southeast and offering one of the best collections of par 3s in all of golf.

The course was recently upgraded to Champion Bermuda greens for a more consistent putting surface year-round. If you’re looking to learn a few techniques, but never had the chance? Head to the new Golf School, offering drop-in clinics, private instruction from PGA Professionals and retired players, utilizing top of the line Trackman Technology. Guests can enjoy custom club-fitting, with brands including TaylorMade, Titleist, Callaway, Ping and PXG - making Barnsley Resort one of the only green grass facilities in North Georgia to offer this.

On the other side of the property, the Rice House, which was originally the home of the Rice Family in nearby Rome, Georgia, was delicately relocated to Barnsley Resort. The culinary team pays respect to its Southern roots and serves modern farmhouse cuisine, with a menu that changes every other week.

For a meal on the go and an ice-cold beer, The Beer Garden is a great spot to gather under the stars.

Open throughout the day on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, the Beer Garden offers a casual menu featuring items from Atlanta’s Spotted Trotter Charcuterie that pair perfectly with over 30 craft beer selections.

If the slow paced, soothing country scene is something you’re seeking for your next getaway, this is definitely the place for you. With authentic, locally sourced cuisine, a boutique spa, and Southern charm, Barnsley Resort offers an escape unlike anything else in the southeast. With the completion of the new Inn at Barnsley Resort, the property now has a total of 150 guest rooms and suites, making plenty room for more visitors.

You can also enjoy the nine-hole Disc Golf course and the Wolf Cave Mountain paintball field that are available for a little friendly competition. Discover the resort on foot or bike with the help of the shooting grounds’ trail map, with options that range from strenuous to easy levels. Active travelers will enjoy the fit trail, offering the opportunity to get in an outdoor workout.

All this adventure makes me hungry, and there are plenty of fabulous restaurants right on the property!

MEN’S STYLE

TRENDS OF THE YEAR What will be the it looks for 2019?

Season after season, we see great trends that catch our eyes. Hiking sandals, short shorts, pattern clash, and dad jeans are just some of the many trends we have seen in 2018. These trends made an impact during fashion week; however, they will be soon driving off the road and making space for 2019’s trends. We can already see leather, cowboy boots, and snakeskin patterns will be making a big comeback and are styles you should consider trying out.

STYLES OF THE YEAR Romance or anti-streetstyle... which side will you choose?

Anti-Streetsyle

Romance

Goodbye to streetstyle and welcome the new antistreetstyle. In 2019, we will be seeing a big change in men’s fashion, starting off with the anti-streetwear that’s revolutionizing streetwear. Streetwear is well known for its pop culture influences and very stylish, laidback outfits seen by average influencers.

This year we will be seeing couture as the norm of streetstyle, which is the opposite of what streetsyle is, hence the name, “anti-streetstyle.” Expect more suits, double-padded blazers, tailored pants, and a well-refined look as the new trend for men’s fashion.

This year’s trend will have you falling in love.

Romance is in and we’re living for it. The look has a more countryside/romance look that is more inspired by the Shakespeare era. There are many ways to create the ultimate romance look such as loose tops, sheer tops, loose fitting pants, and flowing button-ups. If you’re not a fan of a completely loose-fitting outfit, try a flowy top with chino pants. This trend is very versatile and will be easy to pair with other items in your wardrobe.

AUDI SERVES UP SOME FRESH FUTURE

AUDI P18 E-TRON SUPERCAR CONFIRMED FOR LIMITED PRODUCTION

34

| STYLETOME.COM

TOYS

The stunning Audi PB18 e-tron concept, which made its debut at Monterey Car Week in 2018, is getting the green light. Audi Global CEO, Bram Schot, in an interview with Autoweek Netherlands, said the allelectric supercar should show up sometime in the next year or two, though, just 50 examples will make their way to production.

FOR RACE TRACK AND ROAD In the Audi PB18 e-tron, the driver is the one steering and stepping on the gas or brake pedal. There are therefore no complex systems for piloted driving on board and no comfort features to add weight. In their place are a driver’s seat and cockpit that are integrated into an inner monocoque shell that can be slid laterally. When driven solo, the monocoque can be positioned in the center of the interior as in a monoposto – the perfect location for the racetrack.

This is made possible not least by the by-wire design of the steering and pedals; a mechanical connection of the control elements is not needed.

In normal road traffic, the driver can limit the maximum speed in favor of range.

This limitation is easy to deactivate on the racetrack and can be adapted to local conditions.

The focus is on not just powerful performance but also maximum efficiency.

While being driven, the Audi PB18 e-tron recovers large amounts of energy: up to moderate braking, the electric motors are solely responsible for decelerating the vehicle. The hydraulic brakes only come into play for heavy braking.

The liquid-cooled solid-state battery has an energy capacity of 95 kWh. A full charge provides for a range of over 500 kilometers (310.7 miles) in the WLTP cycle. The Audi PB18 e-tron is already designed for charging with a voltage of 800 volts. This means the battery can be fully recharged in about 15 minutes.

Ladies and gentlemen, the future has arrived.

Gael Buzyn is Head of the Audi Design Loft in Malibu – where the Audi PB18 e-tron was born. He describes the most important item in the specifications: “We want to offer the driver an experience that is otherwise available only in a racing car like the Audi R18. That’s why we developed the interior around the ideal driver’s position in the center. Nevertheless, our aim was to also give the PB18 e-tron a high degree of everyday usability, not just for the driver, but also for a potential passenger.”

THREE ELECTRIC MOTORS AND QUATTRO DRIVE The concept uses three powerful electric motors – one up front and two in the rear.

The latter are centrally located between the steering knuckles, each directly driving one wheel via half-shafts. They deliver power output of up to 150 kW to the front axle and 350 kW to the rear – the Audi PB18 e-tron is a true quattro, of course. Maximum output is 500 kW, with boosting, the driver can temporarily mobilize up to 570 kW. The combined torque of up to 830 newton meters (612.2 lb-ft) allows acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h (62.1 mph) in scarcely more than 2 seconds – a speed that differs only marginally from that of a current LMP1 prototype.

BEST FRIENDS

EXOTIC BLOODLINE Astonishing Ashera

By Smerelyn Gutierrez

Wealthy people buy expensive cars or even expensive bags to fulfill their spending urges. However, why buy bags and cars if you can buy something extremely out of the ordinary, like a cat? Cats are among the most popular pets in the world, and we as humans often find that there is no price when getting one of our own. For some people an average regular pet is just not enough for them; in fact, the rarer it is, the more people are willing to buy it. So why not an Ashera cat? The Ashera cats are becoming wealthy people’s favorite cat. “Why?” you may ask. Well, they are seen as one of the rarest, largest and most expensive cats in the world. It has some exotic feline bloodline which also includes a domestic cat that will make it possible for you to have as a pet. This luxurious cat has become one of many popular breeds for those wealthy cat lovers.

Many people are opting out from buying a regular house cat and switching over to the luxurious new cat that was created, yes I said created, with many other breeds. Lifestyle Pets created the hybrid cats for those who are normally are allergic to them and eventually created one of the rarest cats there is, which is said to only breed about 100 of the cats a year, with only about 50 cats being sold in the U.S. The only thing this cat damages is your wallet, which can retail up to $125,000. That makes it one of the world’s most expensive house cats available to the public. The Ashera cat is a type of cat that is a cross between an African Serval, an Asian Leopard and a domestic house cat. The cat can range up to 30 pounds and can grow to be around 4 feet long, which is considered to be the largest cat within the house cat line.

This eye-catching cat has a more distinctive look than any other cat in the market. This cat has spots and stripes all around the body that can be said to resemble a leopard, however, these cats are amicable and still can be treated as a regular house cat. The Ashera cats are great temperament, love to be around children, and even enjoy being walked on a leash. So next time you consider getting a pet, why not get the rarest and most luxurious one of all to show off your worth?

THAT ONLY HAPPENS IN

LOVE

STORIES! The on-screen relationships that led to off-camera romances By Riesa Pascal

Workplace romances aren’t unheard of in the office so who’s to say it can’t happen in Hollywood?

Here’s a list of actors whose on-set chemistry led to real life relationships and although many were fleeting, some blossomed into marriages that are still going strong today.

38

| STYLETOME.COM

CELEBRITY SOUP

Miley Cyrus & Liam Hemsworth

Stephen Moyer & Anna Paquin

Johnny Galecki & Kaley Cuoco

Miley met Liam in 2009 when he starred as her love interest on the set of The Last Song. Though the couple broke up in 2013, they eventually got back together in 2016 and finally said “I do” this past December.

The supernatural thriller “True Blood” is responsible for getting these two co-stars together! Stephen met Anna in 2008 while starring as her vampire lover on the hit show. He decided to put a ring on it two years later in 2010 and the doting couple now have 6 year old twins together.

Kaley Cuoco and Johnny Galecki of “Big Bang Theory” began dating off screen and were together for 2 years before deciding to go their separate ways. Despite the split, the couple remain good friends and ironically their onscreen characters are now married to one another.

Johnny was even in attendance at Kaley’s real-life wedding to Karl Cook in June of last year.

Rose Leslie & Kit Harington

After meeting in 2012 on the set of HBO fantasy series “Game of Thrones”, this couple’s on-screen love blossomed into a real-life relationship that led to them tying the knot in Scotland in June 2018.

Freddie Prinze Jr. & Sarah Michelle Gellar

Freddie and Sarah are the longest lasting couple on the list having been together since they met in 1997 while filming I Know What You Did Last Summer. The couple got married in 2002 and share two children together.

Ginnifer Goodwin & Josh Dallas

It doesn’t get more romantic than falling in love with a man who literally plays your Prince Charming, but that’s exactly what happened when these two met on the set of “Once Upon A Time”.

The couple were married in 2014 and have been living happily ever after with their two children ever since.

Kristen Stewart & Robert Pattinson

Stephen isn’t the only vampire to have fallen for his human love interest! Kristen and Robert met while filming Twilight in 2008 and were together until 2012 when Kristen was caught having a shocking affair with the married director of her film Snow White and the Huntsman. I guess you could say she fell in love on a movie set, twice!

Rachel McAdams & Ryan Gosling

Angelina Jolie & Brad Pitt

Channing Tatum & Jenna Dewan

Brad and Angelina fell in love while filming Mr. and Mrs. Smith though Brad was married to Jennifer Aniston at the time. He went public with his romance four months after splitting from Jennifer and went on to have six children with Angelina during their 12 year relationship. In 2016, the couple announced they were separating and sadly have been going through an ugly divorce and custody battle ever since.

While co-starring with Jenna Dewan in the 2006 hit Step Up, Channing Tatum had no idea he had been cast alongside his future wife, but neither could deny that their chemistry on set needed further exploring. The couple dated and were married in 2009. They had one daughter together 4 years later, but sadly announced their separation in April 2018.

It’s often cited as the most romantic movie of all time so it should come as no surprise that the on-screen romance of The Notebook came to life off-screen as well! Rachel and Ryan fell for each other on set in 2004 and were together for 3 years before sadly breaking up in 2007.

DON’T MISS THE BEAT

MICHAEL BUBLE LOVE

By Courtney Caggiano

No one captures the feelings that love springs up within our hearts quite like Michael Buble, and on February 16th, Mr. Buble is bringing his unforgettable voice to Orlando’s Amway Center, for a not-to-be-missed tour just in time for the month of romance.

shared with his fans over Facebook. Love might not have the upbeat excitement of the singer’s previous albums, yet this recent collection of pensive tracks showcases an established, settled Buble finding his place in the consistency of classic sounds.

it could have been composed in decades past.

On “Forever Now,” a song Buble says he never plans to perform live, the songwriter sings to his children with words from the heart of a devoted father that will bring tears to anyone’s eyes.

Although the man who so famously sets the warm emotions of a love story to sweet melody, Buble takes a more honest approach on his latest album, Love, in which the singer opens up about the challenges that love brings, as well as the healing power of song.

Perhaps the hardship has taught Buble to express the various seasons of love in more depth and detail—even Buble has dubbed Love his “most romantic album to date”—as his voice now carries a certain vulnerability that seems to take life a bit more seriously.

After a lengthy two-year absence, Buble has finally returned to the studio and the stage, a brighter moment after the storm of watching his four-year-old son, Noah, battle cancer. With new perspective, the Grammy-winning father views Love as a testament to the strength of hope—and especially the strength of his son, who he lovingly calls a “superhero.” Buble also wants this album to be a token of gratitude for those who have supported him through his difficult journey as he spent much-needed time with family.

Still, Buble has chosen to reenter the musical world with a sense of optimism, with the most timeless love songs and classic, feel-good favorites—but this time, they seem to mean something more. Buble proves the significance of love in its truest form, opening the album with “When I Fall in Love,” promising that “it will be forever,” a phrase that must now hold great value in Buble’s heart.

The album is just as full of joyful notes and colorful hues, such as the big band flair on tracks like “I Only Have Eyes for You,” and “Such a Night.” The always effervescent “La Vie en Rose” adds a spirited touch to the album as Buble takes a bubbly, cheerful approach to Edith Piaf ’s passionate international hit. Buble’s rich, eloquent timbre could rival the crooners of the Rat Pack, but his unique modernization shines through to provide the age-old American songbook with fresh life for a pop-centric audience.

“For me, this is a small way of being able to thank you and tell you how much I love you,” he

Among the American standards throughout the album, Buble includes a couple original tracks that seamlessly weave right into the classically modern collection. “Love You Anymore,” cowritten by pop singer Charlie Puth, sounds like

Love is an album of heart-rending, melodic snapshots, and Buble’s 2018 tour is sure to inspire the most love-struck, lovesick, and hopeless romantics to find the beauty in every moment of life’s ever-changing journey, and to enjoy the love songs along the way.

WHAT TO WEAR THIS VALENTINE’S Some outfit ideas to spice up your date night!

We all know shades of red and pink are the colors of Valentine’s. And even though you can wear any color you like that day, we’re gonna stick to the basics and give you some outfit ideas that are, you guessed it, red and pink.

The next outfit we have is a velvet maroon dress.

A maroon hue has a passionate charm that feels perfect for Valentine’s Day dressing. A nice velvet dress in the maroon color will be a great outfit idea, and the material will help the romantic vibes.

First outfit option, a suit. And of course we are talking about a RED suit! This is definitely the boldest outfit we have for you, but it’s probably the most stylish one also. And it can be worn at work and then straight to dinner.

The final idea we have for you is a little different; wear a neutral color, either black, white, nude, etc., and have your accessories be red and/or pink! Pair with big chunky red earrings or a nice pink clutch.

This is a creative alternative to incorporating red and pinks if you don’t like to wear a lot of red or pink!

The next idea we have is a furry coat; now you can wear pink or red underneath also or just have the coat be the pop of color, both work and get the job done! You can also show some skin, pairing a highslit skirt with the furry coat.

STAY GOLDEN

Why you want to add gold to your skin care routine.

Gold. A Chemical element you can find on the periodic table and nowadays, in your daily beauty products. Gold for many, many centuries has been a symbol of wealth, luxury, and glamour. And companies have started infusing this luxurious element in their beauty products. Apparently, gold has other benefits other than making you feel glamorous.

TACHA Gold Camellia Beauty Oil A multitasking beauty oil with 23-karat gold for face, hair, and body that adds instant nourishment and radiance to your skincare and makeup routine. $95 / Avaialable at Sephora.com

| STYLETOME.COM

Many brands and companies started adding gold to their products because of the many benefits gold has to the body specifically the skin! Gold helps with wrinkles, fine lines, and spots. Talk about every woman’s desire.

Gold helps activate the basal cells of the skin which increases the elasticity of your skin and reduces wrinkles, fine lines, blemishes and marks on the skin.

Gold also aids in stimulating your skin cells.

The ions present in gold help stimulate the cells, nerves, and veins in your body. Which leads to improved blood circulation and in turn will leave you with healthy skin.

Dryness of the skin is another factor of bad skin. When your skin is dry it can cause premature aging. Using creams and/or lotions with gold in it can reduce dryness of the skin and helps in increasing the metabolic rate and will help prevent your skin from premature aging.

The Egyptians believed that gold has medicinal properties that help with healing.

Gold does have antioxidant properties, and like mentioned earlier, increases the blood circulation which helps to a reduction of acne and other skin problems.

Gold does not only look good on you, whether it’s your nail color, the color of your shirt, or the jewelry you wear. But it has all the skin care benefits that give you beautiful, glowing, youthful looking skin. Time to put some gold into your skin care routine and experience all the benefits for yourself!

CELLULITE TREATMENTS

THAT DON’T WORK

Are you drinking enough water?

Drinking water seems like such an easy thing to do.

But you’ll be surprised how little you’re actually drinking.

And no, you don’t need to be carrying a gallon of water everywhere you go (unless you’re a gym freak). Water is extremely important to your health, even just consciously making an effort to drink one more bottle of water in your day will help in ways you can’t imagine. I know water can be boring, but there are many liquid flavor water enhancers that you can just squirt in your water. Here are some signs you’re not drinking enough...

• You wake up with a dry mouth • Your urine is very yellow • You have bad breath • You have dry skin/wrinkles • You are often constipated • You are hungry even though you ate.

I know it’s a broken record, but drink your water! Your body will thank you!

72

| TAMPASTYLEMAGAZINE.COM

Yep, you read right. We are about to unveil the promised “get-rid-of-cellulite” products that are out there that unfortunately, don’t. So heres to saving your coins on faulty products!

CREAMS/LOTIONS

A lot of over-the-counter lotions and creams are promoted as cellulite treatments. They have ingredients like caffeine, retinols, etc. Although some do tighten, brighten and give a glow on the skin, cellulite is much more complex and a simple lotion just cant get rid of it.

DRY SCRUBBING/SKIN BRUSHING

This one is a popular one. And it breaks my heart to tell you that what your doing is a waste of time.

Dry brushing DOES have great benefits that you can use this method for, but vanishing cellulite isn’t one of them. It does improve the look a little but only on the surface of the skin, and it is something that you have to do consistently.

ROLLER AND SUCTION This you’ll see on the shelves as products called cellulite massagers. They suck or roll on the skin and, supposably, increase circulation. This usually gives temporary improvement, but it all depends on the person and device.

GARMENTS There is a garment that’s meant to “massage” or “compress” the skin. This is another that manages cellulite, but it all depends on how often you use it and the person.

There is no real fix to cellulite, and even though it is annoying, it is also normal to have cellulite.

Don’t stress so much about it. Embrace it; it’s part of being a woman!

HIGH ON MAKEUP The cannabusiness is booming.

Marijuana is making its way to the cosmetics world, and it’s taking over by storm. Many brands have been creating great products that will provide many beneficial components, leaving your skin or even your lashes feeling healthier. Brands like Milk Cosmetics and Estee Lauder’s Origins have been way ahead of the curve, generating their own products that are infused with CBD-rich cannabis oil. Marijuana makeup will also be great for vegans who have a hard time finding products such as mascaras, which normally have beeswax, a common component in mascara formulas. Watch out for many new brands that will be coming out with more cannabis oil-infused makeup that’ll leave you feeling high off of excitement.

OSWALDO VIGAS

THE ARTS

THE ARTS

The Tampa Museum of Art is pleased

to announce the opening of Oswaldo Vigas: Transformations, an exhibition celebrating one of South America’s most ambitious and celebrated modern artists. Organized by the Grand Rapids Art Museum and made possible with support from the Oswaldo Vigas Foundation and the Grand Rapids Art Museum Exhibition Society, this exhibition will be on view from now through May 27, 2019.

Oswaldo Vigas: Transformations presents the first U.S. museum survey of artist Oswaldo Vigas (Venezuelan, 1923-2014) and features 60 works of art created between 1940 and 1980, including 40 paintings and a selection of sketches and drawings. A prolific artist, Vigas found inspiration in both the natural landscape and traditions of his native Venezuela, as well as the European avantgarde. The exhibition examines the artist’s evolution as a painter and begins with Vigas’ early works, including recurring female figures inspired by Venezuelan mythology. By the 1950s, he began to explore geometric forms and color in his paintings, several of which he realized as monumental murals at the University City of Caracas (a World Heritage site). After a period of creating abstract works, Vigas returned to figuration in his later paintings, where women re-emerged in a vigorously expressive style. The works on view will illustrate the scope of Vigas’ projects, from studio painter to muralist, and demonstrate the breadth of his creative achievements.

Joanna Robotham, Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art, stated, “I look forward to introducing Oswaldo Vigas’ art to the Tampa Bay area. Vigas has been widely admired in Europe and Latin America for decades, yet is relatively new to American audiences. The

exhibition Oswaldo Vigas: Transformations firmly anchors the artist as one of the 20th century’s foremost abstract painters. I am excited to share Vigas’ important paintings with our audience and present a more global view of post-war abstraction.”

The Tampa Museum

The Venezuelan artist drew on a broad mixture of sources and stylistic approaches for his art, mingling indigenous South American traditions with Western modernism into a distinctly personal language. For Vigas, the spontaneity of drawing enabled him to get his ideas on paper, making it the source of his visual thinking. The imagery of Vigas’ paintings derives directly from the drawing process, whether from works he considered finished, or the experimental sketches he was constantly creating.

Transformations

of Art Presents Oswaldo Vigas:

Born in 1923 in Valencia, Venezuela, Vigas studied medicine at Universidad de los Andes (ULA) in Mérida, Venezuela. In the 1950s, he gave up his medical practice to focus on his artwork. In 1952, he moved to Paris, where he immersed himself in the city’s stimulating post-war art scene. After twelve years there, he returned permanently to Venezuela, establishing a reputation as one of the continent’s pre-eminent artists and exhibiting his work regularly in museums across Latin America and Europe. Today, Vigas’ art resides in prominent private and museum collections including the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; Museum of Fine Arts, Houston; and the Art Museum of the Americas. Vigas passed away in 2014 in Caracas, Venezuela.

4 LUXURY LIQUORS To consider adding to your collection Spirits and cocktails have become more

popular over the years, but that doesn’t mean that high end spirits are for everyone, for many reasons. Wherever you fall on this, there are some luxury liquors you just need to appreciate, from taste, age, and the bottle itself, the kind you can only find in elite lounges, and five-star hotel minibars. Here are just four liquors we picked.

Takashi Murakami X Next5 Sake $50 - $1000

CASHS IRELAND COOPER SINGLE MALT WHISKEY CRYSTAL GLASSES The most perfect glass for single malt scotch or on-therocks malt blends, bourbons and cocktails. Extremely well balanced, the weight is on the bottom of the glass with thin rim for maximum flavor enjoyment. $100 / Available at Crystalclassics.com

92

| TAMPASTYLEMAGAZINE.COM

Made by five different brewers in the Akita region of Japan, this sake uses the traditional method of placing kimoto yeast in a bag with rice and water, working that bag by hand each day and letting the yeast chow down on the rice and clarify it into alcohol.

Johnnie Walker Blue Label ‘Year of the Ram’ $258 or $1,036 for set

We’ll admit theres not much of a difference than the normal Johnnie Walker Blue, but this chinese New Years series features scrollwork on its side depicting a ram. There was similar artwork for the Year of the Horse in 2014, and we’ll admit it’s a

nice touch for collectors.

Louis XIII Le Mathusalem $78,000

I know you’re probably thinking, why does this cost as much as car? Well, Remy Martin has been producing cognac for just shy of three centuries.

Made in the Cognac region of France with a blend of hundreds of clear eau de vie brandies that are up to a century old, Louis XIII doesn’t get trotted out for just any occasion. A standard 700-milliliter bottle typically fetches upwards of $3,000. A three-liter Jeroboam bottle sells at auction for six figures.

Ciroc Ten Vodka $250

Made exclusively from fine French grapes, it’s a new standard of luxury celebration - CÎROC™ TEN. Their master distiller selected a vibrant blend of fine French grape varietals, including the first harvest grapes of the 2013 vintage. The blend was created in celebration of the 10-year anniversary of CÎROC™ Ultra-Premium Vodka.

CÎROC™ Ultra-Premium Vodka is gluten free.
