Back at the beach during Miami Swim Week, the sand was hot and the nights hotter. Records showed it was the hottest days ever registered in Miami and talk of heat indices well over 100 degrees was routine. Never before did those vitamin laced waters go down so quickly as models fainted and make-up melted under the glare of the relentless sun.
Nights were not much cooler and even though cafes and ocean spot venues were throbbing, everyone sought out a fan or a cooling AC blast. Sushi and blue martinis were tucked into like camp food, and maybe it was the heat, but no one felt a thing, until, of course, the morning after when the rush for a Starbies was legion.
With the cameras clicking and the film crews rolling designers threw pool parties and trotted their new lines for 2011 in the sand–in stillettoes. And these were not shoes made for walking. Not even a sliver of those ubiquitous Loubie red soles could be seen as the models sank in up to their gladiator straps.
The nightlife music in Miami is everywhere and the Latin undertone so engaging, like a heart beat. With the in-your-face combo of food, sun, heat and urban rhythyms, Miami wears a wahine out.
