M.I.A.

by - August 21, 2012

...Sorry for being MIA...but, it was all for a good cause...."cause I was in Miami Bi#ch!"  Sigh!  What can I say, my cousin called and said she was going to Miami...do I wanna go?...well, funds are low...I don't know...cousin, just cover your spending...I got everything else...WHAT!??  What a blessing...I'm there.  I love you...and I promise you, when you do good, good things will happen for you.

Random shoots from our trip...

...me chillin' by the pool

We stayed at the Perry Hotel in South Beach...an amazing hotel...American Airlines is running specials because the hotel is under construction...but, still beautiful.


...my cuz

 All the hotels in South Beach are so beautifully decorated.  I can't remember the name of this one...we just stopped in while walking along Collins Avenue to get a little air conditioning...and I just fell in love with the decor...You know I love a good ottoman...lol.  My favorite hotel is the W hotel in South Beach...it was right next door to the Perry...sigh.  I could live there...no pics...guess I gotta go back.


 ...this is the coffee shop in the W hotel...L.O.V.E.D!

 roof top at the Perry Hotel...


 "me, chillin' in the hot tub."

 ...another cousin just happened to be attending a convention in Miami at the same time...so she stopped by our hotel with a couple of her girlfriends...the kinda girls you wanna bring to any party.
 ...the ladies chillin' in our hotel room...
 Miami or should I say, "South Beach" is definitely for the "sexy"people...If you are not physically sexy, you have to be mentally sexy...

...we all went down to Ocean Drive and had drinks and food at Wet Willie's...well known for their drink "call me a cab", it's 150 proof...some type of corn liquor and legend has it that after drinking just one, you will need a cab...I didn''t have one, but the ladies loved it...so much so, they went back 3 times...The restaurant is nothing fancy...very small but it's famous for it's drinks and the food was very good too...a must do if you are ever in South Beach...It's near the Versace Mansion.



The dining room at the "Tides" hotel in South Beach...another one of my favorite hotels...the decor is perfect...just look at all those turtle shells...sigh.  Inspiration is everywhere...


 our room at the Perry


 Hotel lobby...they pipe Perry Ellis perfume through the vents...just puts you in a good mood...
 you already know I loved everything about the decor in this hotel...especially the pillows.  I wanted to just stuff one in my bag...lol.

 Miami is so freaking HOT...my camera lens fogged up every time I tried to take pics outside...








...me, trying to take a sexy pic...smile


that's it...every time I go to South Beach...I fall more and more in love with the place...I really need a house there...or at least a car ride away...

  8. Wow, that hotel is definitely pretty! With Perry Ellis wafting through the halls of the hotel, you can’t help but be in a good mood! The coffee shop in the neighboring hotel is something else as well! And yes – not having pictures of your favorite hotel is DEFINITELY a good excuse, er, REASON to go back!

  9. I see that you’re kind of a pool and beach aficionado. The places you went to are all equally fabulous. Well, I don’t expect you to settle for anything less. Keep us posted of your adventures, and I’ll look forward to hearing more about them in the future. Thanks for sharing! Have a nice day!
