100% Capri is 100% Natural

“I LOVE LINEN” 100%Capri - The fashion and household linen brand - was generated by the talent of Tony Aiello, a brilliant young businessman who succeeded in creating a brand that has rapidly become synonymous with Italian craftsmanship. Linen, the quintessential fiber of vegetable origin, is good for the skin and cares for the body of those who wear it, enveloping them in the snowy caress of soft fabric. The use of linen is perfectly integrated in the philosophy of 100%Capri, since the attention to the environment is not a derived from a passing trend but is an authentic corporate lifestyle that sets the natural element at the core, starting from the raw material used right through to the creation of the products. And we’re not talking only about fashion creations or the household linens, but about all the little details, such as the exclusive shopping bags and made up in pure linen.

Shops and 100% Capri has stores in St. Barth, Roma, Sicily, South Africa, Beverly Hills, Firenze, Ibiza and will open this fall in Dubai. “I love linen. Linen is a timeless beauty in its purity and perfection. To me linen means eternal youth and an escape to the Mediterranean landscape of my home in Capri. My personal pride is in our exclusive materials. We have searched the world over to deliver to you the finest fibers which are weaved and tailored by the experienced hands of our artisans. Our timeless style and design is an expression of elegance but most importantly freedom. 100% Capri is 100% Natural - It’s a pure pleasure to wear.”

Tony’s genuine strong point is that he has managed to take this lifestyle from Capri to all over the world. In fact in 2008 he landed in Bal Harbour, with Flagship Store in the most luxurious mall in the United States, The Bal Harbour

Thus is it is the felicitous combination of linen and the magic of the Island of Capri that gives rise to the man/woman/child collection of 100% Capri, allowing those who wear them to live in a dream.

For occasions that are one-of-a-kind, Nest Casa, Bal Harbour, offers personalized service with its exclusive signature wedding registry. The concept of Nest Casa Bal Harbour is finely curated and exceptionally crafted merchandise made of the best materials, exquisitely designed, and signature in every way. At Nest Casa, hostess and wedding gifts and accessories for the home are a truly personal endeavor. Nest Casa’s founder, Sara Colombo, purposefully selects the pieces; many are limited creations, which are beautifully imagined from designers whose standards are impeccable. Nest Casa embodies Sara’s understanding of what makes a house an exquisite home - one-of-a-kind, hand-selected, timeless treasures. Nest Casa has been known for nearly a decade as the quintessential purveyor of fine gifts and accessories. Now, the Bal Harbour shop offers a wedding registry that is unmatched with the brand’s unique offerings. It is the destination in South Florida for a registry collection that contains a selection that can be found nowhere else, and the go-to place for the discerning bride and bridegroom-to-be to create a custom registry. Items sourced at Nest Casa are a special selection that puts the Bal Harbour shop’s wedding registry in a class of its own.

“To build a nest means putting a personal space together piece by piece. In the end, no two nests are alike; they are a creation of personal style and a reflection of individual taste” - Sara Colombo

Nest Casa’s wedding registry showcases specialty lines such as Hermés, St. Louis crystal, a selection of Made in Murano, Italy, glassware, the sumptuous Puiforcat Paris collection of fine silver flatware and cutlery, and exquisite home objects fashioned from horn by Arca. There are also a number of other fine specialty items from exclusive designers available in the Nest Casa registry portfolio. Nest Casa also has its own line of custom linens for bed, bath and table. Made of the finest imported Italian fabric, all linens are customized by request. “Gifts for special occasions are personal, which is why each piece in this registry collection is chosen with the utmost thought and care,” Sara says. There is an art to selecting the items to build a wedding registry, according to Nest Casa’s staff of experts and gift consultants, who are skilled at customizing registries. No two registries are duplicated. Items for inclusion range from a selection of hand-picked linens, to fine flatware and dinnerware, crystal, picture frames, candles, and everything in between that makes a new house a home. So what is the secret to creating the perfect wedding registry in signature fashion at Nest Casa? While many couples go the route of a traditional registry, Nest Casa’s service creates exclusivity during the initial consultation in the selection of items, making certain that each piece in the collection is a reflection of the couple. The consult offers the couple the ability to personalize their registry from the unique product lines curated by Nest Casa. Knowledgeable consultants work with the couple in ascertaining lifestyle and individual taste, plus help with

considerations such as home décor and location. Most importantly, gifts added to the registry are ones that will make a statement due to the fact that they are as exceptional as the couple themselves. Nest Casa’s exclusive bridal registry Champagne brunch is also one of the personal offerings that makes the selection task an event for the bridal party, and adds to the enchantment. Nest Casa’s bridal registry service also offers expert consultants who are available to assist friends and family in their selection from the registry - an added level of personalization and reassurance. “We create a very personal experience for both the bride-to-be and for those who want to make sure that their gift is a treasured expression of well-wishes for the couple,” Sara says. The registry also takes into consideration a variety of price points and specialty items to appeal to guest’s wide range of budgets. For guests who prefer to have an exclusive gift not found on the registry, Nest Casa’s vast selection ensures the perfect choice. There’s a sense of satisfaction in making sure that occasion gifts are a perfect fit for the discerning couple who appreciates individuality, and who desire to surround themselves with one-of-a-kind items that can be treasured for years to come. “To build a nest means putting a personal space together piece by piece. In the end, no two nests are alike; they are a creation of personal style and a reflection of individual taste,” Sara says. Nest Casa, Bal Harbour: Purveyor of extraordinary gifts for exceptional occasions unique in every way.

Sands and Shores

ucked between the Atlantic Ocean on the east and the Intracoastal Waterway on the west, Sunny Isles Beach is

known as Floridaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Rivera. Spanning over 2 miles, the white sandy beaches and clear-blue waters make Sunny Isles Beach a private utopia for all who know it - and few resorts in the world can claim the same extraordinary beach and coastline as that of Acqualina. Situated right on the sand, Acqualina gives guests and residents unparalled access to powdery soft sands and the calmest, brilliant blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean. Beach umbrellas, plush lounges, and beach butler service are just a few of the many indulgences that make Acqualinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s beach one of the most treasured and pristine in the area. In full view of the beautiful Atlantic Ocean, the three sea level swimming pools at Acqualina Resort & Spa on the Beach are each a sparkling oasis of cool, refreshing enjoyment. Each swimming pool offers a different experience for guests to relax and soak in the sun.
