In GIA’s history, very few polished diamonds of gem quality have surpassed the 100-carat mark. Already part of an elite group due to its size, the highly transparent nature of this diamond adds to its rarity. This pure diamond is classified as type IIa which scientifically means it is lacking measurable levels of impurities like nitrogen, thus giving this diamond its pure white color.
This diamond was fashioned into a classic old world cushion cut, with its smaller table and open culet. Its faceting bears resemblance to other world-renowned diamonds, such as the 45.52 carat Blue Hope Diamond and the 105 carat Koh-I-Nur.

FROM THE EDITOR
Is it me, or is there love in the air? In recent months, so many friends have gotten engaged, tied the knot, or found their soulmate after years of searching. But it’s not just romantic love that stirs the heart. People are discovering new passions in vocations and avocations, or taking the dive into second acts, and loving it. As the events of the last two years have taught us, life’s too short to spend in lukewarm compromise. In this month of love, we profile a number of women who have channeled their passions and power into change-making endeavors. Cover subjects Casey and Timolin Cole, the twin daughters of the great Nat King Cole, believe so enthusiastically in the transformative potential of music that they’ve put musical instruments in the hands of thousands of Palm Beach County kids—and watched the magic emerge. Most recently, the sisters produced a music video titled “Can We Talk to the World?” to inspire hope and harmony in a post-pandemic world. What a beautiful way to honor the legacy of their father. Read their story, and those of three other inspiring women, in “Women on Top” on page 98. Also this month, we feature a conversation with fashion force Liz Lange. Her name may sound familiar to moms, including me—Liz practically invented stylish maternity wear—but there are many other facets to this powerhouse. We visit Liz in her Palm Beach home, which she designed with fellow seasonal Palm Beacher Jonathan Adler, and talk to her about her views on fashion, her acquisition of revered brand Figue, how she lives at home (she also famously owns Grey Gardens in East Hampton), and her eye-popping Instagram. Turn to page 106 and learn more about this “Design Diva.” Since we’re on the subject of passions and second acts, I’d like to introduce you to our newest contributor, Tristan Dyer. Tristan recently retired (at just 31!) from a career as a dancer with the Royal Ballet and is now pursuing another interest—skin care. Lucky for us, he’s parlaying his knowledge and research into a new column for PBI. Check out “Skin Deep” on page 176. Finally, I’d like to mention that next month we’ll be celebrating our seventieth anniversary with a special commemorative edition that celebrates all things Palm Beach. Be sure to look for it and help us celebrate this milestone. In the meantime, enjoy this issue!

SPOTLIGHT
ZACH GUINTA
Stirring the Stoke West Palm Beach resident Mary Glazier started teaching surf lessons while between jobs last March. When she began posting time slots specifically for women, wannabe wave riders took note. She has now taught more than 400, with some traveling from as far as Orlando and Homestead to learn from her. “I realized that the few women I surf with on a regular basis only knew how because a dad, brother, boyfriend, or husband had taught them,” Glazier explains. “Although I adore the men I’ve surfed with over the years, it frustrated me that most women’s bridge to this incredible hobby is through a man, and that this lifestyle is not as accessible to women.” Glazier’s connection to the sport is a deep one. “I learned to surf
when I was 12 after my brother, who was also a surfer, passed away,” she shares. “At the time I couldn’t process it all, but I knew I wanted to connect with him in some way, so I went out and taught myself on his board. I didn’t progress much in those beginning years; it was just a therapeutic and scenic experience that I was not good at.” She learned from every wipeout, eventually getting good enough to teach others. A typical one-hour lesson for first-timers includes some ocean/swell education, a warm-up on the sand, then paddling out and “falling until you don’t.” She typically hosts her sessions in Palm Beach but follows the swell around the county, posting weekly time slots on her website and Instagram based on the wave forecast.

and Pompano Beach—members get all the perks of owning a boat with none of the downsides. There’s no trailering, cleaning, or fixing, just setting off for time on the water then paying for whatever fuel you used. Best of all, each JetRide location has an extensive selection of boats and Jet Skis. (jetride.com)
Galloping to Give Back Nancy Batchelor is a modern-day Wonder Woman. Beyond her roles as a competitive equestrian and top Miami real estate agent, Batchelor is a passionate philanthropist, giving back to the community through a foundation founded by her late fatherin-law, George Batchelor. His son Jon (Nancy’s husband) is a board member of The Batchelor Foundation (tbfinc.org), and the two work in tandem to continue George’s legacy of benevolence. While the foundation contributes to more than 600 charities focused on health, animal welfare, environmental, and educational matters in underprivileged communities within Florida, Nancy’s personal favorite initiatives involve equines. “I’ve been horse crazy my whole life and I rode as a kid,” she shares. 54

THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT BOATING IN PALM BEACH COUNTY
TOP SPOTS: Take a boat out from the public West Palm Beach City Docks off Clematis Street for access to the Intracoastal Waterway, or depart from Harbourside Place in Jupiter to be near numerous waterfront eateries, including Guanabanas, 1000 North, U-Tiki, and Square Grouper Tiki Bar.
l
ROOM TO ROAM: Recreational boating is allowed along the county’s 47 miles of shoreline, and there are four major inlets that connect the Intracoastal to the Atlantic Ocean.
l
BOATING SAFETY: In Florida, those born after 1988 are required to have a boater’s permit, but the test can be taken online in most cases and is free.
l
Nancy and Jon have a home at Aero Club in Wellington, and when she’s not show jumping, Nancy dedicates her time to organizations such as Give Back for Special Equestrians (give backeq.org), an all-volunteer nonprofit that provides therapeutic horseback riding for disabled children and veterans. Equine-facilitated therapies can benefit those facing physical, cognitive, and emotional challenges. In addition to increasing one’s self-esteem, riding can help with muscle coordination, range of motion, balance, and even communication. “I’m passionate about what horses can do for people,” says Batchelor.

INSIDER Q&A
FANTASTICAL Florida The fecund verdancy of South Florida is ripe for tall tales, and that’s exactly what inspired West Palm Beach author Taylor Thomas Smythe to pen fantasy reads for the whole family. His Kingdom of Florida series is akin to The Chronicles of Narnia but with decidedly Floridian leanings. It follows the adventures of a group of South Florida youngsters who discover a parallel land of magic, strange creatures, and an evil prince. “It starts out as a fairly lighthearted tale, but there’s a deeper mystery bubbling up below the surface, which plays out over the course of the series,” Smythe says. Guardians of the Willow, the seventh and final book in the series, was released last fall. His first installment, The Golden Alligator, won a silver medal in the 2021 Florida Authors & Publishers Association President’s Book Awards and was a finalist in the 2021 National Indie Excellence Awards. The series makes a great family read-aloud, but Smythe is also recording audiobooks of all seven installments; so far, two are available
PBI: How did your Floridian upbringing inform the series? Smythe: As a West Palm Beach native, I have a deep affinity for the Sunshine State, but it wasn’t until I left for graduate school in the Midwest that I began to truly appreciate my home state. I wanted to explore and develop a story world different from the typical medieval European setting. From there, I began to flesh out a story involving children from a historic West Palm Beach neighborhood who find their way through an old house into a parallel world. Tell us about your writing process. My process almost always starts with a single idea—a name, phrase, or image. From there, I spend time generating as many ideas as I can in an outline before I begin 56

through the Mandel Public Library of West Palm Beach’s Hoopla app. “The process of recording is somewhat laborious, but I enjoy discovering the voices of different characters,” he says. “I always wonder if the way I hear the characters in my head matches how readers hear them.” Smythe’s next series, Magic City Wonders, blends paranormal fantasy and science fiction in 1980s Miami, following a group of individuals who discover they have supernatural abilities. “Think Miami Vice meets X-Men,” he adds. Smythe is a graphic artist by trade and recently launched his own design business, The Prime Floridian. Below, PBI gets a peek into the creative mind of this sun-dappled storyteller.

working. I credit an annoying internet outage for actually giving me the push to start writing the first book. What did the journey to publishing look like? As a child, I made little “books” by taping sheets of printer paper inside cardboard. As a teen, I created a regular newsletter I’d send to a few of my friends. When I finished writing the first draft of The Golden Alligator, I decided I would publish it independently. I wanted to have creative control, ensuring it captured the classic book feel I had envisioned.

Posh Pioneers THE FAMILY TRIO BEHIND PIONEER LINENS LOOKS BACK ON ITS 110-YEAR HISTORY AND WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS
Behind the neatly stacked collection of Frette linen bedding and rows of Italian cotton towels is a century-old formula for success. “Sell the best products and take good care of your customers,” says Penny Murphy, the third-generation president of Pioneer Linens. Her grandfather, Max Greenberg, founded the then hardware store in 1912, equipping South Florida settlers with everything from chicken wire to gas lamps. As more affluent locales such as Palm Beach boomed and needs changed, so did Greenberg’s vision. His son, George, made Pioneer a one-of-a-kind specialty destination for world-class linens, custom bedding, and couture bath accessories, all housed in an 8,000-square-foot showroom on Clematis Street. “My father and grandfather had tremendous capacity for seeing the future, for understanding people’s needs, and for the hard work, dedication, and discipline required to execute such a specific vision,” says Murphy. That legacy continues to flourish with the family’s fourth generation. Murphy’s daughters, Marissa Murphy-Adriaanse and Camille Murphy-Kubicek, are bringing twenty-first-century innovation to the Pioneer experience. “My grandfather was brilliant, the finest teacher you could ask for,” says Murphy-Adriaanse, who oversees the company’s website and social media. “From watching him, I learned the value of relationships and the key to keeping a specialty business like ours successful.” Pioneer’s ability to change with the times has been a hallmark of its success, one that was tested by the COVID pandemic. During the shutdown in 2020, the Pioneer staff used FaceTime to show58

case their merchandise to customers. “It has actually been a huge plus for us to reach people who’ve never been to our store,” adds Murphy-Adriaanse. Two other pillars of success are Pioneer’s massive inventory and complimentary local delivery service. “It’s not uncommon for us to be asked to outfit an entire house or houses or to pull together a table setting for 20 in an hour,” says Murphy-Kubicek, Pioneer’s lead buyer. “We carry hundreds of brands from all over the world.” Under her leadership the company
recently launched a private label Signature Collection. “We keep the bar raised high on specialty, one-of-a-kind merchandise,” says Murphy-Kubicek, who curated the home decor line of bath and bedroom basics, decorative rugs, kitchen items, vanity sets, and more. All three Murphy women are quick to credit their staff as integral to their success. “Our employees work tirelessly to give each client personal, white-glove customer service, which extends to our vendors and local community,” says MurphyAdriaanse. “It’s the Pioneer legacy.” «

Cereal Numbers
Two Boca teens are making sure no bowl goes unfilled When Luke and Jett Justin volunteered to pack meals for families in need at Boca Helping Hands alongside their parents several years ago, they noticed a problem that no one else saw: cereal was in short supply. “Cereal really represents happiness,” Luke says. “It’s not just food. When people receive it they’re receiving breakfast and happiness and it lifts them up.” The Justin twins wanted to spread the kind of happiness that cereal offers—and by more than just a spoonful at a time. So at 8 years old, they launched their nonprofit, Cereal4All, and organized a donation drive at their elementary school. “We think kids can really relate to it because if they can imagine what it would be like not to have cereal in their own bowls, they will want to donate,” Jett says. Now six years later (and halfway through the eighth grade at Don Estridge High Tech Middle School in Boca Raton), the boys have donated nearly 100,000 bowls of cereal to Boca Helping Hands. Bill Harper is the organization’s director of food and warehouse operations, and he says he’s proud to have the Justins on his team. “It’s tough to find young people who are that caring about others,” Harper admits. “They inspire me, and they inspire other adults to get out there and to live a life of service.”

“
CEREAL REALLY REPRESENTS HAPPINESS. IT’S NOT JUST FOOD. WHEN PEOPLE RECEIVE IT THEY’RE RECEIVING BREAKFAST AND HAPPINESS AND IT LIFTS THEM UP.” —LUKE JUSTIN
Luke and Justin host a Cereal4All donation drive each spring, engaging local kids to make posters, give speeches, and bring in boxes. Even during the COVID-19 pandemic and its related shutdowns, they collected nearly 3,000 pounds of cereal at their 2021 drive. “It’s great as young people to be able to make a positive difference in the lives of others and know they’re better off because of you,” Jett says. Cereal4All is growing: The kid-led organization is now partnering with 10 area schools and has even gone to college ahead of its founders. The Community Service Club at Florida Atlantic University joined forces with Luke and Jett to collect more than 400 pounds of cereal in April 2021. The on-campus event was so popular that the FAU football team got in on the action the following fall, hosting a donation drive at its first home game and bringing in another 316 pounds of cereal. General Mills—maker of staples like Cheerios and Lucky Charms—has helped out too, sending Luke and Jett 2,000 boxes of its products. No matter how much Cereal4All expands, the Justin brothers say they’ll continue to work with Boca Helping Hands to fill bowls with cereal. “The best part is at the end just seeing all the cereal in the pantry bags and knowing they’re going out to people who really need it,” Luke says.

The Longevity
DIET
Tips for eating your way to a LONG, HEALTHY life By Ivey Leidy Photography by Kent Anderson
I
n recent decades, talk of Blue Zones— regions where people not only live the longest, but also experience lower rates of cancer, heart disease, diabetes, dementia, and Alzheimer’s—has permeated longevity discussions. Researchers have found numerous contributing factors that these regions share, but perhaps the most important commonality is diet. In America, the No. 1 cause of death is heart disease, and what Americans eat greatly contributes to this. Close to 70 percent of packaged foods in the U.S. contain added sugars, which can be identified by up to 56 names. In addition to cane sugar, these empty calories commonly go by words ending in “ose”: fructose (think high-fructose corn syrup), dextrose, sucrose, and maltose to name a few. Processed foods are also a large part of American diets. Processed meats, cookies, chips, and sweets are all packed with sodium, preservatives, and chemical additives. Refined sugar and processed products are the worst foods for longevity. Blue Zones residents aren’t counting calories or religiously reading labels—in fact, they rarely eat anything with a label at all. Longevity diets center around whole foods. The less processed a food is, the more efficiently the body can absorb the nutrients and use them to fuel cells. The body thrives on lean sources of protein, beans, nuts, and whole vegetables, fruits, and grains. Key things to consume on a regular basis include leafy greens (spinach, kale, collards, chard), fiberrich foods (apples, berries), and fats derived from plants (olive oil, avocados) as they are much healthier than animal-based fats.

It’s also wise to limit meat consumption to no more than twice a week. When you do eat meat, make sure it is pasture-raised and therefore free of hormones, pesticides, and antibiotics and much richer in heart-healthy omega-3s. In general, choose fish or plant protein over meat, limit mercury-rich fish like swordfish and tuna, and avoid farmed fish that are high in antibiotics, pesticides, and artificial coloring. Read on for my secrets for longevity and more.
SECRETS FOR LONGEVITY
1
Eat mostly plants. Aim to make plants 90 percent of your diet. Use olive or avocado oil over butter and choose nut milks and nut cheeses over cow’s
milk. Incorporate plant protein sources like beans, nuts, and seeds instead of meats and whey protein powders. Don’t eat anything that contains more than five ingredients or any ingredients you can’t pronounce. If you don’t recognize it, neither will your body.
3
2
If you’re not hungry, don’t eat. I like to think of the space between meals as sacred. Giving your body a break from digestion and time to clean and turn over cells is hugely beneficial to your health. Exercise regularly. Not only is it good for cardiovascular health, but it’s also wonderful for brain and bone health.

1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. baking soda

chickpeas. In a saucepan, add chickpeas, baking soda, and enough water to cover by 2 inches. Boil for 20 minutes. During this time, add lemon juice, garlic, salt, and cumin to a blender or food processor and let it sit while the chickpeas boil. This neutralizes the garlic a bit. When the chickpeas are done, rinse and strain again and set aside. Add tahini to the blender and pulse a few times. This is the most crucial step for getting super creamy hummus: While running the blender with the lemon, garlic, tahini, and salt combo, slowly add in the ice water. The texture should be thick and creamy. If it’s too thick, add a little more ice water. Toss in chickpeas and cumin and blend for 1 minute, scraping sides down as you go. If it’s not creamy enough, you can always add more ice water, but it really needs to be ice cold.

Incredible INDIA
Revel in Agra’s foremost sights, the Taj Mahal and the Agra Fort, with The Oberoi Amarvilas as your home base.
The subcontinent wows with amazing landmarks and premier hotels By Paul Rubio
India is a mind-boggling mélange of opulence, intensity, cultural riches, and otherworldly experiences. Pack your bags—and an adventurous spirit—and embark on an unforgettable journey through the country’s famed Golden Triangle (Jaipur, Agra, and Delhi) with Oberoi hotels.
WORLD WONDER Revel in the legacy of the Mughal Empire in Agra. This historic region lays claim to three of India’s most iconic sites from the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries: Agra Fort, the ancient city of Fatehpur Sikri, and the Taj Mahal, a structure so revered it’s often the very catalyst for visiting India. Built by Mughal emperor Shah Jahan, the bejeweled white marble mausoleum excites in pictures, but the details and artistry observed in person are nothing short of transcendent.

As the minutes pass from sunrise to sunset, the Taj Mahal’s exterior dazzles with an ever-changing kaleidoscope of colors best appreciated from multiple vantage points. There’s the obligatory view (and Instagram shot) at the entrance fountains with the multihued mausoleum behind, but witnessing the sun’s first rays on the Taj from across the river is perhaps more breathtaking. Even better is enjoying the panorama from your private balcony at The Oberoi Amarvilas, marveling at this man-
made masterpiece over morning coffee, at sunset with a glass of Champagne in hand, and late at night under the magic of the moonlight. A spectacular balcony isn’t the only reason to stay at The Oberoi Amarvilas, but it’s a strong argument (especially since every room has one). Others include luxuriating on the grounds themselves, which are steeped in Moorish and Mughal architectural influences and peppered with cascading fountains, terraced lawns, reflection pools, and tiered lookout pavilions. Four restaurants and bars showcase the best in global mixology and international cuisine, underscored by elevated Indian delights at Esphahan, which serves classic tandoori and curry dishes as well as contemporary tasting menus. In total, The Oberoi Amarvilas is an essential component in fulfilling an epic bucket-list trip to bask in the glory of one of the original seven wonders of the world.
REGAL JAIPUR
OBEROI HOTELS & RESORTS
Dubbed the “land of princes,” the Indian state of Rajasthan teems with centuries-old forts and palaces indicative of the country’s colorful and tumultuous past. At the center of it all, the state’s capital, Jaipur, is a traveler’s gateway to the various sights and home to The Oberoi Rajvilas, where Rajput and Mughal splendor abounds. Erected in the traditional Rajasthani fort style, The Oberoi Rajvilas is a fantasy land of royal Indian living, spread across 32 acres marked by lavish villas and verdant gardens enveloped by fountains. The property honors both old and new, as evidenced by restored elements like the 280-year-old Shiva temple, which still hosts daily religious ceremonies, and an eighteenth-century Rajasthani haveli (“mansion”), which has been transformed into the hotel spa. 84

Beyond The Oberoi’s gates, Jaipur is a city of must-see relics and primo shopping. First up is the red sandstone and marble-clad Amber Fort in the town of Amber. One of India’s most wellpreserved citadels, the fortress boasts prolific courtyards, towering gates, cobbled paths, and imposing ramparts. Next is Jantar Mantar, an eighteenth-century observatory that showcases the ingenuity of Sawai Jai Singh II, Amber’s former ruler; his 300-year-old instruments are still used to tell time and predict weather and natural events. Finally, a stroll through Jaipur’s pink-tinted streets reveals a shopper’s paradise of fine goods and souvenirs. Pick up handcrafted jewelry festooned with precious and semi-precious stones, handwoven carpets, made-to-order dresses, and solid marble handicrafts—most at prices too good to believe. To help navigate this retail wonderland, The Oberoi Rajvilas provides a list of preferred vendors and reminds guests that prices remain negotiable at most shops.
NEWER DELHI
Top: Amber Fort and a market in Jaipur. Clockwise from above: Tree of Life Lobby, Club Bar and Cigar Lounge, and Kohinoor Suite at The Oberoi New Delhi. Below: The Humayun tomb.
Thirty-plus million residents strong, the mega metropolis of greater Delhi is a polarizing one. Some feel it’s an essential part of any visit to India, while others dread even an overnight stay in the country’s capital. Thankfully, Oberoi has properties to suit both mindsets. Dating to 1965, The Oberoi New Delhi is a storied landmark hotel that’s hosted the who’s who of politics, Hollywood, and Bollywood. Under the direction of designer Adam Tihany, a two-year renovation completed in 2018 brought a brighter feel to the stately property, as well as new hot spots such as the see-and-be-seen rooftop bar, Cirrus 9. All of Delhi’s key sights are within a short distance of the hotel. The stunning sandstone and marble tomb of the second Mughal emperor, Humayun, is directly next door. The British architectural gem Connaught Place and the Red Fort (Lal Qila) are about a 10-minute drive away. The fantastically frenetic alleyways of Old Delhi are slightly farther afield. Much like it has for decades, this city hotel offers an oasis of serenity—and top-notch amenities—in one of the world’s most hectic metropolises. PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | FEBRUARY 2022

Modernism and creature comforts abound at The Oberoi Gurgaon.
On the outskirts of the capital territory, the flourishing financial subcity of Gurgaon has also become a part of India’s travel circuit. Given its proximity to the international airport and its rapid-fire development as a commercial and business economic center, Gurgaon has fostered a hotel scene all its own, underscored by the modernist Oberoi Gurgaon. In an area defined by sleek skyscrapers and high-design buildings, The Oberoi Gurgaon stands out for a unique top-down blueprint. Here, a hilltop lobby constitutes the hotel’s summit, as public spaces and
guestrooms fill floors below, all engulfed in shallow reflection pools and manicured gardens. The lobby itself resembles a soaring glass jewel box, adorned with white furnishings contrasted by vibrant reds—an interior design that feels more Miami than Delhi. Among the alternating glass and steel columns are several exalted international restaurants, an arcade of couture shops, a 24-hour spa, exclusive cigar and piano lounges, an Olympic swimming pool, and over-the-top cozy rooms. While it’s not the traditional feel of Oberoi’s other India properties, the Gurgaon outpost provides a delightfully familiar setting and myriad creature comforts for a quick layover en route to the country’s more far-flung riches.

etting away without going away has been the dominant travel trend of the last two years. During this time, The Ray in downtown Delray Beach has opened its doors, delivering the perfect escape for Floridians looking to unwind close to home. The hotel’s tropical modern vibe transports guests to memories of chic island vacations. Lush greenery grounds the senses, while cozy contemporary furnishings and vibrant art (such as David Parise’s whimsical vintage Barbie photos) offer sophisticated touchpoints. Each of The Ray’s 141 effortlessly sophisticated guest rooms are appointed with Frette towels and robes, Eucalyptus linens, and Byredo bath products for an indulgent night in. Downstairs, start your day in Delray at Stingers Coffee Shop, with a menu of coffee, breakfast and lunch options, and coldpressed juices. For the active set, The Ray’s
health and wellness focus means Purlife trainers are available for personal training sessions, and the well-equipped fitness center is on standby 24/7. Or, opt for a refreshing fitness break and participate in a bootcamp or yoga class at the hotel’s Cube rooftop or central Plaza throughout the week. Ready for the beach? Simply text the concierge and the hotel’s own carnation blue Moke will whisk you away to reserved loungers in a seaside cabana for an afternoon of relaxation. When splashing around in the waves—or taking one of the hotel’s surf or paddleboard classes—works up an appetite, check out The Ray’s two on-site restos: Rosewater Rooftop and
Ember Grill. Begin the evening with gorgeous, 360-degree views of the sunset over drinks and light bites at Rosewater, where candlelit cabanas and thumping music set the mood. After happy hour, head down for dinner at Ember Grill, helmed by renowned chef Joe Zanelli. Within this elevated homage to beloved neighborhood grills, the tropical modern motif soars in both the decor and the food. The open kitchen serves up imaginative dishes made with sustainable, locally sourced ingredients, from shellfish towers to duck pancakes and a hearts of palm salad with shaved carrots, kohlrabi, and jalapeño vinaigrette. Upon checking out of The Ray, two thoughts are likely to prevail: “I’m so relaxed,” and “I really need a Moke.” (therayhotel.com) «

A Star is REBORN
The all-new Mercedes-Benz SL roadster is a performance TOUR DE FORCE By Howard Walker Remember an Armani-clad Richard Gere behind the wheel of that gleaming black MercedesBenz 450 SL in the 1980 classic American Gigolo? With Blondie’s “Call Me” booming in the background, the SL cruising along the Pacific Coast Highway through Malibu was a rolling testament to brooding lust, elegance, and perfectly gelled hair. Alas, in recent years the oh-soclassy SL has lost much of its mojo as our love for drop-top sportscars has taken a nosedive. But the SL (short for Sport Light) is too big a nameplate for Mercedes to give up willingly. After all, those two little letters have been gracing the trunk lids of low-slung Benz sportsters since the legendary 300 SL debuted in 1952. So, drumroll please: The SL is back, brand new from the wheels up, with huge changes that include standard all-wheel drive, a return to a canvas top in place of a folding metal lid, two-plus-two seating, and V8 power. And to show how invested Mercedes is in its SL renaissance, it handed over development to the performance wizards at AMG—hence the two-seater’s fancy new name, Mercedes-AMG SL. Two versions will be on offer come springtime. Take your pick from the new SL 55, powered by an AMG-massaged 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 92
PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED
cranking out 469 hp, or the muscled-up SL 63 with a 577-hp version of that turbine-smooth V8. Gone is the bland, slightly milquetoast look of the previous generation model. Now it boasts a six-pack and a bulldog stance. Peep that barred-teeth front end in your rearview and trust me, you’re moving over. Its lower air intakes are big enough to swallow decent-sized critters, and a retro front grille and swept-back LED lights contribute to its intimidating mystique. Climb aboard, slide a finger across the iPad-like 11.9-inch tilting center screen, and that canvas top retracts in a zippy 15 seconds and at speeds of up to 37 mph. Of course, there are those who will lament the jettisoning of the folding metal roof. As a Floridian, I liked the duality it gave—offering the choice of coupe for summer, convertible for winter—
but it gobbled up too much trunk space, added weight, and raised the car’s center of gravity, compromising ultimate handling. It also meant you couldn’t have rear seats, which is one of the new SL’s attractions. Not that anyone over the age of 5 is going to fit back there. Legroom is on a par with Allegiant economy or a Little Tikes Cozy Coupe. It’s the perfect place for a gym bag or a small Labrador. But this SL isn’t about dropping tops and trunk space. It’s all about driving. It’s a trait I experienced firsthand when I had the pleasure of flying to Southern California and exercising it on God’s driving roads, from Orange County across the San Jacinto Mountains to Palm Springs. First up was the SL 55. Even though it’s the milder of the two flavors, it still feels breathtaking in the way it catapults off the line and rushes to 60 mph in a mere 3.8 seconds. Rocketship performance, however, isn’t the 55’s only party piece. The way the car scythes around ridiculously tight curves, its all-wheel ai164124816395_2 EOAR Ad PBI.pdf

MJM Yachts’ new 38-foot 3z is an open dayboat FOR ALL SEASONS By Howard Walker You’d like Mary Johnstone’s motorboat. She’s the MJ in MJM Yachts, who back in the early 2000s wanted a boat she and her sailboat genius husband, Bob, could enjoy with friends and family. Not able to find just the right one, she and Bob—who happens to be the Johnstone behind those legendary J/Boats—decided to create their own. They set up MJM Yachts in 2002 to build MJMs, short for Mary Johnstone’s Motorboats. These days their son, Peter, runs the company out of a factory in Washington, North Carolina. And now, after a couple decades turning out elegant, Down East–style, cabined motor yachts, they’ve just introduced their first outboardpowered dayboat, the 38-foot MJM 3z. Of course, it’s not as if the 94
PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED
world needs another outboard dayboat. But this new 3z raises the bar in design, versatility, practicality, performance, and style. It helps that leading naval architect Doug Zurn, who has penned the lines of all six MJM models over the years, handled this design too. In fact, the “z” in 3z reflects Zurn’s considerable input in making MJMs ride so smoothly, handle with such precision, and look so jawdroppingly cool. What Zurn has so expertly crafted is a fun, all-weather dayboat that can accommodate extremes of heat, cold, and rain. When the sun shines, there’s masses of outdoor space for soaking up rays. Up in the bow there’s a spacious U-shaped, wraparound sofa and mirror-varnished hilo table. On the aft deck, there’s another U-shaped lounger with an ohso-clever fold-down center section that morphs into a sun pad. But what sets the 3z apart is its big-windowed, hardtop pilothouse. At the push of a button, the three windshield windows open electrically. Now slide open the huge side windows and roll up the aft Strataglass panels to welcome in the cool air. If the temp rises, all those windows can be closed and the AC cranked up to give some relief. The pilothouse boasts comfy bench seats on either side—they make
great beds for afternoon naps or impromptu sleepovers—plus a table with fold-out leaves for inside dining. Lift the seats and there’s huge storage underneath. Up front there are every-which-way-adjustable Stidd seats with big armrests for captain and co-pilot. A full suite of Garmin displays takes care of informational needs. Hidden doors in the consoles beneath the windshield reveal a surprisingly spacious toilet and shower on one side and a changing room–cum–kids’ nap cabin– cum–storage room on the other. Being an MJM, the quality and craftsmanship are sensational. Pop open one of the many drawers to admire the lovely dovetail joints and high-quality sliders.

It makes getting on and off the boat a breeze when moored side-to, especially for furry friends. The swim platform features extended sections alongside each engine to facilitate leaps into the briny. What’s more, MJM is so open when it comes to pricing. None of this “price upon request” secrecy; the website shows it as $653,846, with a choice of 16 hull colors and four bottom colors. The only pricey options are the Seakeeper 3 gyro stabilizer and pilothouse HVAC. Yes, Mary Johnstone’s motorboat checks all the right boxes as the ultimate all-purpose, all-weather dayboat. «

ANDREA VIRGIN
President, Boca Raton Center for Arts & Innovation
Andrea Virgin knows how to own a stage. The former professional ballet dancer–turned–civil engineer is spearheading the creation of the Boca Raton Center for Arts & Innovation: a state-of-the-art facility that will house multiple spaces for performances and events. When Mizner Park was planned in the early 1990s, residents were promised that 40 percent of the land would be dedicated to culture. “This center fulfills that promise in a future-forward way,” Virgin says. In the wake of Virgin’s husband’s death in a 2015 plane crash, she was determined to move forward with purpose. “I needed…to make an impact,” she says. “I saw how our time here can be cut short.” She launched a civil engineering design company and joined the board of Boca Ballet Theatre, the organization that ignited her own love of dance. At her first board meeting: kismet. On the wall hung a master plan for a performing arts center that had been a decades-long dream. Virgin felt she could bring the plans to fruition—combining her passion for the arts with her engineering know-how. “That was the inception of the center,” she says. Today, Virgin is well beyond the inception phase. She’ll wrap lease negotiations with the City of Boca Raton early this year. Next on her agenda: schematic designs, launching a capital campaign, selecting a construction partner, and getting shovels in the ground. Virgin knows there will be several years of hard work ahead—but she keeps her eyes on the prize. “I cannot describe the feeling I will have on opening day, when we realize this dream has become a reality,” she says.

The intensive two-week program welcomes about 90 underserved elementary students to participate in music programming. “They are enthusiastic and full of positive, fun energy, and we get so much joy out of it,” Casey says. “It’s wonderful to be able to see them inspired and watch their growth.” Timolin and Casey say they have weathered the storms of life together, while channeling their father’s inspiring determination and their mother’s resilience. But both women admit the key to success is putting yourself first in order to create space to inspire and mentor others. “We come into this world alone and we die alone,” Timolin says. “At the end of the day, you must learn to be your own best friend. Taking time to nurture your own soul is the first step to everything else.” Casey agrees, saying: “In order to be the best that you can be and in order to inspire others, you have to be inspired. It’s all about the self.” (natkingcolegenhope.org) PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | FEBRUARY 2022

DEBRA A. SCHWINN
President, Palm Beach Atlantic University
Debra A. Schwinn was named Palm Beach Atlantic University’s ninth president in May 2020—in the middle of a global health crisis. But as a leader in academic medicine, an innovator, a physicianscientist, and a member of the National Academy of Medicine, Schwinn’s medical background came full circle as Palm Beach Atlantic organized itself and quickly assembled a team of medical professionals and a system of safeguards to protect students, faculty, and staff while offering transformative, inperson education. “The university prides itself on having strong, compassionate, and visionary leaders, and I’m happy to be a part of that team,” says Schwinn. As a Christian liberal arts university, Palm Beach Atlantic gives students an opportunity to deepen their faith while discerning their vocation through rigorous academics and “workship,” the school’s signature community service program. “I love bringing people together across the university,” says Schwinn. Schwinn believes that being a successful woman requires hard work, consistent quality, and innovation. “Women may have a competitive advantage when it comes to innovation,” she says. “We are, by nature, creative problem-solvers.” For Schwinn, life is not about how smart you are; it’s about joyfully serving others. A relatively young school, Palm Beach Atlantic has big plans for the future. With Schwinn at the helm, the academic institution hopes to double enrollment, offer new programs, and reimagine its West Palm Beach campus for the future.

DANITA NIAS
CEO, The Community Foundation for Palm Beach and Martin Counties
Danita Nias, the new CEO of the Community Foundation for Palm Beach and Martin Counties, inspires philanthropy to address her community’s needs. A vehicle for philanthropists to make an impact, the organization aims to enhance local lives and ensure a strong quality of life for residents of the counties it serves, through awarding grants and offering scholarships to deserving students. Nias says what distinguishes the organization is its highly customized approach. “We are creating programs for people to help [them] think through their philanthropic strategies and choose causes that resonate with them.” Nias started her career in sales at Xerox, where she learned that customer needs are the focal point of any successful venture. She says that her skill set lies in connecting with people one-on-one. “Relationship building comes naturally to me. It’s divine and it’s who I am.” But the corporate world wasn’t Nias’ only training ground; she says that being a high school and college cheerleader was key to preparing her for her current role. “Cheerleaders build relationships with the crowd and with each other, and that’s what I am doing here. I am cheering for these counties.” While her corporate cheerleading work entails many programs, providing mental health therapy to children is particularly important to Nias. In fact, she recently introduced a childhood mental health program called Rebound and Recovery, which the Boys & Girls Clubs of Palm Beach County will implement this year. For Nias, the key to success—in any realm— is authenticity. “When you can be yourself and you embrace yourself, you can’t lose.” she says. (yourcommunityfoundation.org) « 104 PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED

me, I was able to acquire it, rehire the fabulous team, and we are in the middle of its relaunch. Pinch me— it’s a dream come true. Sustainability is becoming a key factor for many fashion brands. How does Figue contribute to fashion’s eco-friendly movement? We try to produce our products using small artisans from around the world. We make a lot of our clothing in Peru and India, where we have partnered with very small, family-owned factories that do much of our beading and embroidery and even cut our tassels by hand. What’s been the most valuable lesson you’ve learned as an entrepreneur and designer? Don’t sweat the small stuff—or even the big stuff! Anything and everything will go wrong when you try to start something new. You absolutely can’t let it derail you. Just keep finding solutions and moving forward. It’s the only way. Figue is known for its caftans. Where do you find your most influential inspirations when designing a new collection? Certainly Palm Beach is inspirational. But I’m inspired by all my different travels (less so during COVID-19, of course) to Morocco, the French Riviera, Spain, the Amalfi Coast. I love poring over images of so many of the chic women of the last century who famously swanned around in glamorous caftans and other clothing looking fabulous. Everyone from Talitha Getty, Gloria Guinness, and Lee Radziwill to actresses like Marisa Berenson and Sharon Tate. The list of inspirations is endless...and when in doubt, all I have to do is open a book of Slim Aarons photos.

PBI: In 2020, you acquired the fashion label Figue and became its chief executive officer and creative director. What initially drew you to the brand? Lange: I had been a big Figue fan and customer since its inception 10 years ago. When I heard during COVID-19 that [the brand] was winding down, it felt meant to be. I have been a brand builder and retailer my entire career. I knew Figue was a brand that I inherently understood and could grow to the powerhouse lifestyle brand it should be. Luckily for
You once described yourself as a tight-dress-andhigh-heels person. What shifted your personal style from body-con to bohemian chic? I often say that I have entered my “caftan years,” but that’s really more of a joke than reality. I think styles change and I still want to look glamorous and elegant. But I no longer look at being tightly zipped into something as I trip in my mile-high stilettos as elegant. To me, nothing is chicer these days than a fabulous floaty dress or caftan, a stack of bold bracelets or a statement necklace, and a pair of slides. Done. What advice would you give your 20-year-old self today? Nothing about your life is going to turn out as you expect. But that’s okay; it’s going to be a great ride! Or maybe: Do you realize how young and cute you are? Don’t be so insecure!

You’ve become known as an iconic Instagrammer (@lizlangeofficial). Talk to us about your account aesthetic of posting jet-setting images of retro styles you’ve spotted. I knew I didn’t want to post selfies; I am too private for that—and too old! So I started posting images of people, places, and things that I find beautiful and glamorous. In order to make it more personal, I use these images as starting points. In my copy, I try to tell a more personal story about the image and what it reminds me of in my own life. I love that so many followers will jump in and share their experiences with me and we can have a real back-and-forth dialogue. To me, that level of connection is the best part of social media. I have met the most interesting people from all around the globe. You’ve been close friends with celebrity designer Jonathan Adler since college, and he designed your home in Palm Beach. What was the main inspiration behind the colorful and whimsical spaces? I wanted it to feel like a vacation—happy and light—every time I walked in the door, a real break from our home in New York City. And it does! It’s filled with palm trees, palm leaves, lacquer, animals, trellis prints, wicker, and color, color, color. I start to smile the second I approach it. The worlds of interior design and fashion are known to intersect. How do they influence your daily life in Palm Beach? I love spending time hunting for vintage home and fashion finds on Dixie Highway and on the island at the Church Mouse and other spots. You bring your joie de vivre to life under the palms. What’s your favorite aspect of the Palm Beach lifestyle? The beautiful sunny weather! I love that I can be outside under the palm trees in January. It never gets old. What are your style tips for the ultimate Palm Beach look? It’s easy: Throw on a long caftan in a lightweight fabric (it’s instant air-conditioning), a chic pair of sandals, and a pair of earrings. Clip your hair up, add a bit of lip gloss, and you are good to go anywhere. « 110

CONSCIOUS HOW (AND WHY) TO GREEN YOUR COFFEE ROUTINE BY ABIGAIL DUFFY
122
PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED
ANNA MUCCI PHOTOGRAPHY
ipping a cup of coffee in the morning is one of life’s simplest pleasures. But there is big business behind that beverage: The coffee industry employs more than 125 million people, and coffee beans are grown on 12.5 million farms worldwide (upwards of 80 percent of which are small plots in developing countries). The United States is the largest coffee importer by a factor of almost 2 billion tons, with demand increasing every year. To meet this demand, sustainable and ethical practices can sometimes take a back seat, resulting in a coffee crisis that impacts growers and the land they work on. For growers, it means below-cost compensation for their yields and unsafe working conditions. For the planet, it means deforestation to make room for sun-grown beans, damaging runoff from processing plants, and the release of greenhouse gases from the refining and exportation of coffee beans and discarding of coffee waste. But there is good news, too: Brewers and roasters across Palm Beach County have their sights set on educating consumers on ways to make sustainable and ethical coffee choices. From understanding the human factor to being choosy about coffee labels and brewing tools to finding the best local lattes, we’ve got all your coffee needs covered.

WE TOOK A COFFEE BREAK WITH JOSHUA KORMAN, FOUNDER OF COMPOSITION COFFEE HOUSE IN WEST PALM BEACH, TO TALK ABOUT BRINGING MINDFULNESS INTO COFFEE CONSUMPTION.
124 PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED
PBI: Why did you open Composition Coffee House? Korman: “Composition” as a namesake came from the definition “the parts that make up a whole.” What I always add to that definition is “with no one part being more or less integral or important than the next,” which pertains to the components of the supply chain of coffee. We look at the entire supply chain. The farmer, the picker, the person processing and sorting the beans at the dry mill, the roasters, and the brewers all play vital roles in bringing an excellent cup of coffee to a consumer. With that comes responsibility. Each step on the chain is intertwined, and we’re always learning how we help each other. Where does the coffee you serve come from? Passenger is our dedicated roasting partner. One of the reasons we are not a multi-roaster is because we believe in developing deep relationships that are truly supportive and that have buying power to bolster that relationship. They are B-Corp certified and put ethics over profits. They have forged partnerships with plots in Ethiopia,
ANNA MUCCI PHOTOGRAPHY
Brazil, El Salvador, Colombia, and Burundi (among others) and buy 75 percent of their coffee from these five partnerships. How do you educate your consumers? Some customers are having their first experiences with specialty coffee like this and don’t understand why they’re paying a premium. We get to teach people about how much effort goes into bringing a 10-ounce bag of specialty coffee to the shop. The more knowledge we have about these coffees, the better able we are to tell people that paying anywhere between $17 to $100 for a 10-ounce bag of coffee means that you’re building sustainability into the supply chain.
How do you increase mindfulness in your shop? Everything from bringing a high-quality product to consumers, to the way we have our bar set up, it’s not built for speed. For example, we don’t serve drip coffee in the afternoon because it’s a waste to make a half a gallon to a gallon of coffee at a time, only to throw most of it out. We have built our model around trying to limit waste to try to preserve the product we’re showcasing. What other sustainability practices do you follow? One of the biggest sources of waste in coffee shops is milk waste. Steam wands are powerful and need a certain amount of milk in the pitcher to achieve the proper texture regardless of drink size (we’re looking at you, tiny macchiatos), which means you always have milk left over. One of the things we do to combat this is pitcher share, where we’ll batch steam milk for similar drinks and pour them out separately. You get the presentation and no waste, but it only works when we’re busy. Plastic is another big one. We encourage people to bring their own mugs if possible. Ideally, I’d love to use no plastic at all. What’s your zero-waste brewing method of choice? The AeroPress is a favorite. You’re able to get a lot more out of the cup using less coffee, while still achieving a full-bodied, full-flavored cup. It’s great for heat retention and is versatile—it’s great for iced, hot, concentrated, or diluted drinks. It’s also very replicable and consistent. For our cold brew, we use recycled bamboo filters and reusable fabric ones for a double-filtered system.

WHEN PICKING UP A BAG OF COFFEE, THERE ARE BUZZ WORDS TO CONSIDER. WE TAKE THE GUESSWORK OUT OF CHOOSING A SUSTAINABLE OPTION BY BREAKING DOWN SOME COMMON STAMPS.
SHADE-GROWN Perhaps the most ecologically impactful designation, shadegrown Arabica coffee (which accounts for 70 to 80 percent of production) is grown responsibly under a canopy of trees, preserving the area’s ecological biodiversity. According to the Smithsonian Migratory Bird Center, “shade-grown coffee production is the next best thing to a natural forest” in terms of attracting avian species. In turn, the birds keep pests away from the precious beans.
SUN-GROWN Accounting for 20 percent of coffee production, sun-grown Robusta beans can contribute to deforestation, as the protective layer of shade trees is removed. Consequently, pest-eating birds disappear, leading to increased pesticide use. Because of the decreased natural growth, farmers can plant sun-grown coffee crops in higher densities, which depletes the ecosystem and encourages deforestation.
FAIR TRADE CERTIFIED This stamp bodes well for those involved in bringing beans to your store’s shelves. The designation guarantees that the coffee was grown on a small, sustainable scale in safe working conditions, had minimal impacts on the environment, and that workers were paid fair wages.
FAIR TRADE Although coffee bearing this stamp indicates that it was grown on large coffee plots, it does take workers into account, ensuring a standard of safe working conditions and a guaranteed local minimum wage.
DIRECT TRADE As the name implies, farmers sell their coffee directly to roasters.
USDA ORGANIC Coffees with this designation are grown without synthetic fertilizers and pesticides that harm farmers and the environment. The producers, exporters, importers, and roasters on this supply chain are all certified organic.

CHIK MONK
PUMPHOUSE COFFEE ROASTERS
Grown on family plots on the Balekola and Balupet Estates in Chikmagalur, India, and roasted at Oceana Coffee in Jupiter, Chik Monk’s beans are shade-grown and harvested with ecological and social responsibility in mind. Plus, the company puts a portion of its profit back into the community to provide housing, health care, access to clean water, and schooling to Indian children. (chikmonk.com)
FLORIDIAN COFFEE ROASTERS A pioneer of clean roasting coffee, Floridian uses a fluid bed air roasting method that heats the air around the beans, rather than heating the metal drum they sit in—resulting in cleaner, more robust flavors with less residual heat and fewer emissions. Pick up a bag of the roaster’s Sunset or Sunrise Blends at the West Palm Beach Green Market. The small-batch-roasted cold brew, available as a subscription, is also a favorite. (floridiancoffee.com)
The roasting recipe at Pumphouse’s Jupiter roastery starts with green, single-origin coffee beans from around the world, which are then roasted in small batches to reduce waste and dole out exceptional cups. (pumphousecoffeeroasters.com)
COMMON GROUNDS BREW & ROASTERY It’s all about community at this Lake Worth and Boynton Beach establishment, known county-wide for its delicious batchroasted Guatemalan, Brazilian, Costa Rican, and Ethiopian beans. (commongroundsbr.com)
After brewing a pot of coffee, wet grounds usually go right in the trash. With more than 150 million people drinking an average of three cups of coffee per day in the U.S. (that’s 450 million cups of coffee daily), more than 500,000 tons of coffee grounds end up in landfills every year. Keep methane-releasing grounds out of landfills with these simple repurposing projects.
For the Body Combine half a cup of wet grounds with equal parts brown sugar and coconut oil for a luscious and invigorating body and scalp scrub. For Plants Wet grounds can be a great “greens” addition to compost bins, upping the mix’s nitrogen content to grow happy flora—especially acid-loving varieties (like azalea and rhododendrons). They can also be used to ward off pests and insects, so sprinkle some grounds from your last brew on top of houseplant soil.
For the Home The aroma of coffee helps neutralize smells and even deodorizes the air. Leave used coffee grounds out to dry, then stick them in the fridge to keep things smelling fresh. « PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | FEBRUARY 2022

Sara McCann’s Hive Collective design and lifestyle group is growing with the addition of Hive Bakery & Café. The West Palm eatery features an array of baked goods, pastries, soups, salads, takehome dinners, and more courtesy of the husbandand-wife culinary team of Jay and Amber Felton. Now five years married, the Feltons met in Chicago and worked in San Francisco before moving here in early 2020. While the pandemic put a pause on their restaurant plans, it also enabled them to get to know the area and recipe test at home. “All the training that we’ve had is great, but every area has a specific taste that they like,” says Jay, who serves as executive chef. Amber is pulling from her Michelin three-star background in her role as executive pastry chef. They’ve put together an eclectic yet recognizable menu in the hopes of making Hive Bakery & Café a “coupledays-a-week place,” says Amber. Patrons can expect everything from hazelnut and date twice-baked croissants to house-made candies. Decadent desserts such as flourless chocolate cake (made with Cacao Barry Guayaquil 64 percent dark chocolate) can be enjoyed by the slice or as baby cakes, presented in beautiful takeaway boxes. “This is perfect for me because I get to do a little bit of everything,” adds Amber. For his savory contributions, Jay is focusing on familiar flavors that pack a punch. Think: truffled mushroom tartine, wood-grilled salmon salad, and a turkey club on Amber’s brioche. “I’m not trying to reinvent the wheel,” he notes. “I’m trying to make the classics that everybody knows with a small twist.” (hivebakeryandcafe.com) —Mary Murray

fter nearly 20 years married and more than eight years in business together, Matthew and Aliza Byrne have developed their own recipe for a healthy, loving relationship. As the owners of Kitchen, the Byrnes split their time between locations in West Palm Beach and Palm Beach Gardens, with Aliza orchestrating front-of-house operations and Matthew overseeing the culinary program. Add private events and a Prep Kitchen lunch and to-go component to the southern outpost—plus two busy teenage boys—and Matthew and Aliza have their hands full. But they believe the key to success, in love and in life, is to always date your partner. “We’ve grown together,” says Aliza. “Marriage is a business relationship, and you have to put in the time. We have dinner together every night, even if it’s at 9 o’clock.” Matthew and Aliza met through Matthew’s older sister while living in Philadelphia, eventually relocating to West Palm Beach due to Matthew’s career as a private chef. Kitchen was born out of a desire to share what they love—and the food that brought them together—with those who are as passionate about dining as they are. “Any party you ever go to, everyone ends up in the kitchen,” Matthew says of the inspiration behind the restaurant’s name. It was a celebration, in fact, that led to one of Kitchen’s best-selling items. When Matthew baked a coconut cake for Aliza’s birthday one year, it was an instant hit among the staff and clientele. Matthew’s favorite dish—the chicken schnitzel—is a revamped version of something Aliza made for him while they were dating. The crowd-pleasing cheesesteak spring rolls are an homage to the city where they fell in love. Read on as Matthew and Aliza share other culinary musts and more. (kitchenpb.com) —M.M.

Raising a Glass to LOVE While the history of Valentine’s Day can be traced back to ancient VI Christian and Roman traditions, it wasn’t until the fourteenth century CO SCA FRANCE that the holiday became associated with love—and we have English writer Geoffrey Chaucer to thank for that. In his poem Parliament of Fowls, Chaucer links the mating rituals of eagles to our own romantic pursuits, writing: “For this was on St. Valentine’s Day, when every fowl cometh there to choose his mate.” I’ve renamed this cocktail as an homage to Chaucer’s historic ode to love. Like romance, this elegant expression built on hard cider, floral liqueur, and cognac is thoughtfully crafted. The homemade saffron rose syrup boasts ingredients with known aphrodisiac properties, and it can be used in cocktails and desserts alike. So, regardless of how you choose to enjoy the day—whether with a loved one or your best gal pals—this libation will surely sweeten the mood. —Jules Aron

Feeling nostalgic for 1960s Miami, when Muhammad Ali trained at the Fifth Street Gym and Jackie Gleason broadcast live from the Miami Beach Auditorium? Then visit Casa Caña in Tequesta’s Gallery Square North, a new Tacos at venture from brothers Seamus Casa Caña and Dennis O’Brien. “It recalls an era when people would drive down from the Northeast for a winter vacation,” says Seamus. “The atmosphere will evoke nostalgia for some of our older guests, while our younger clientele should enjoy the retro feel.” The decor features pastel hues and Art Deco touches, with a pink concrete bar and graffiti on the walls. A large wood-burning brick oven dominates the room, providing an interactive experience for diners. The O’Brien brothers are best known for their popular Bagel Boyz spot in Jupiter. This new location serves bagels during the day and turns into Casa Caña at night. In addition to ribs, crusted fish, and steaks from the wood-burning brick oven, the eclectic menu includes raw bar items and Latin-inspired dishes like ropa vieja and churrasco with chimichurri.

Building on success in South Beach, Aventura, and Fort Lauderdale, Bodega Taqueria y Tequila has brought its take on Mexican street food to Clematis Street in downtown West Palm Beach. Bodega is two concepts in one. During the day, it’s a fastcasual eatery dispensing both standard and innovative versions of Mexican favorites. The menu includes more than a dozen taco varieties such as al pastor, crispy fish, and Impossible chorizo, as well as burritos ranging from classic to surf and turf and pollo ranchero. There’s also a build-your-ownbowl option that covers healthier alternatives like kale and cauliflower rice. By night, it morphs into a speakeasy-style hangout offering tequila- and mezcal-based craft cocktails, with bottle service available by reservation. Bodega is also the first non-franchised, fast-casual restaurant to accept cryptocurrency—including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Dogecoin—as payment. (bodegataqueria.com) —M.S.

FROZEN TREATS La Michoacana Mark Spivak, Wine and Spirits Editor Contrary to popular belief, La Michoacana ice cream isn’t a formal chain but rather a loose confederation of vendors who adhere to the same production standards to churn out ice cream using premium ingredients and natural fruits and flavors. There are reputed to be close to 15,000 locations in Mexico. Locally, La Michoacana Natural has outposts in Lake Worth and West Palm Beach, and the ice cream is also available at area Walmart stores. (lamichoacana-usa.com) Morelia Gourmet Paletas Kristen Desmond LeFevre, Senior Editor Visit Morelia Gourmet Paletas’ Boca Raton location and you’ve instantly got problems: Do you refresh your taste buds with Pineapple Mint? Indulge with Fudgy Chocolate Brownie? Opt for the Instagrammable Cookies & Cream? My go-to is Dulce de Leche, filled with an oozy caramel center. Lock in your flavor and it’s time for a dip—first in chocolate, hazelnut, or cookie butter, and then in toppings from crushed cookies and nuts to coconut flakes and sprinkles. The result? The most delicious Mexican paleta this side of Miami. (paletasmorelia.com) Oreo paleta from Morelia Gourmet Paletas

When the craving hits (and it’s often), Crema Rolls in West Palm Beach can’t be beat. The shop specializes in Thai rolled ice cream, with fruit, drizzles, and other extras loaded on top (my favorite part). From the 16-options-deep OGs menu of rolled ice cream to vegan flavors and soft serve, your frozen-treat sweet tooth has met its match.

Layers of raspberry sorbet and vanilla ice cream are surrounded with meringue petals and topped with berries. Sounds simple, but it’s not easy to nail the consistency: The ice cream can’t be too soft, and the meringue must be lighter than air. Bilbo delivers on both counts. (lebilboquetpb.com)

TASTE OFF THE VINE
BORDEAUX on a Budget
Everything you need to know about Cru Bourgeois
FRAN‡OIS POINCET
FRAN‡OIS POINCET
By Mark Spivak
RODOLPHE ESCHER
Above and top right: The storied Château Lafite Rothschild Below: Château Lilian Ladouys is often referred to as “the rising star of Saint-Estèphe.”
For the past few decades, Bordeaux prices have been the stuff of legend. Fancy a bottle of the newly released 2018 Château Lafite Rothschild? The average retail price is just under $1,200. Want to sample the 2000 Château Petrus? Sotheby’s retail branch in Manhattan asks $7,995, but you can snag one for $6,000 if you know where to look. Amid this madness, one category of high-quality, affordable Bordeaux stands out above the rest: Cru Bourgeois. While these châteaux are a notch below the Classified Growths in terms of status, many of them would likely be included if the 1855 Classification were ever revamped. Here are the key facts to know: Cru Bourgeois come from the Médoc, and most have a high percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend, with a significant amount of Merlot added for balance. As of 2020, the properties are divided into three quality tiers: Cru Bourgeois (179), Cru Bourgeois Supérieur (56), and Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnel (14). The criteria for classification include wine quality, regular tasting checks, and environmentally responsible wine growing. Most retail in the $30$50 range.

PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED
While there are other Bordeaux regions that offer good value (notably Côtes de Castillon, Côtes de Bourg, Côtes de Blaye, and Premieres Côtes de Bordeaux), Cru Bourgeois estates have stood the test of time and have established house styles. How good do they get? Among the 14 Cru Bourgeois Exceptionnels, consider Château Paveil de Luze ($40) in the commune of Margaux, which the same family has owned since 1862. The château employs famed Bordeaux consultant Stéphane Derenoncourt to advise on both winemaking and vineyard management. For fans of the 100-point scale, critics rate superior vintages between 87 and 92 points. Another success story in top-ranked Cru Bourgeois is Château Lilian Ladouys ($30), frequently referred to as “the rising star of Saint-Estèphe.” In 2008, the Lorenzetti family purchased this historic property, which dates to 1654 and is located near Lafite Rothschild and Cos d’Estournel. The estate is deeply committed to sustainable farming and is currently converting the entire vineyard to organic agriculture. The wine draws consistent raves for its complexity and food compatibility. Some of the better-known Cru Bourgeois Supérieurs include the châteaux of Greysac, La Cardonne, Larose Trintaudon, Beaumont, Bernadotte, La Mouline,
and La Tour de Mons. The most popular property has long been Greysac ($25), as it’s the easiest for non-French speakers to pronounce without embarrassment. Lafite Rothschild owned La Cardonne until 1990; the cellar has been completely renovated under the new ownership, and the wine continues to win awards and garner positive reviews. Although the estate La Tour de Mons ($33) in Margaux has existed for nearly 1,000 years, it has been making its best wine ever since 2018, with Hubert de Boüard of Château Angélus as consulting winemaker. Which years are the standouts? The better vintages of these wines closely track the best years of the Médoc itself: 2000, 2005, 2009, 2010, 2015, 2016, and 2018. However, talented winemakers tend to produce good wine regardless of vintage conditions. Once you find a style
and a property you like, it’s wise to stick with it regardless of weather reports and conventional wisdom. Consumers are trained to hunt for the blockbuster vintages, but those wines typically take five to 10 years to reach their peak, whereas wines from “weak” harvests are often charming and drinkable upon release. « Above: Château Paveil de Luze Left and below: La Tour de Mons in Margaux

Precision and attention to invisible details contributed to the artistry of this project.
DESIGN
The Science of Simplicity
For the young and worldly European expats who own this North Palm Beach home, designer Jim Dove of Jim Dove Design knew exactly what not to do. “No bamboo, no monkey prints, no extraneous millwork, and obviously no color, save for a few decorative accent pieces,” Dove says. “The vibe needed to be deluxe, but not the least bit traditional.” Dove carefully selected pieces like Eames molded armchairs and an amorphous light fixture that hovers like a cloud over both the island and the dining table to serve as intriguing focal points and ensure a
warm and inviting feel, despite the severely restrained palette. “A kitchen this precise and void of detail needs attention to the most basic elements imaginable: the exactly right shade of white, the proper repetition of motifs—such as the way the table base echoes the chairs— without looking too matchy-matchy. And, of course, making sure that every aspect of fit and finish was spot on. It’s funny, but the simpler the space, the more complicated the invisible details become, as the tiniest things suddenly become glaring if not handled with precision.” (jimdovedesign.com) PALMBEACHILLUSTRATED.COM | FEBRUARY 2022

HOME INSPIRED LIVING
Plush with PERSONALITY How to cater to your personality type in your home’s interior design
Sometime during your education, career endeavors, or internet explorations, you’ve likely come across (and quite possibly taken) the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator. The MBTI is an assessment tool designed to help you identify your natural preferences in four areas of personality. As it turns out, this objective insight into your inclinations isn’t just useful in professional and personal relationships, it’s also a road map of how your home should look and function. Intuitive design, as the emerging movement is called, capitalizes on the idea that your home should deliver what your personality ultimately needs to thrive. Take extroverts and introverts, for example. The homelife and home decor of these two types of individuals should be markedly different to match their inclinations. Read on to peek inside the personality-perfect interiors of these two opposites.
THE EXTROVERT Extroverts draw energy or recharge from being with other people. As a result, their ideal space will prioritize socialization, interaction, and spontaneity. THE KEY ROOMS Communal spaces, such as the living room, dining room, and kitchen, are where the most attention should be spent since this is where an extrovert is at their happiest. While they tend to spend less time at home in general, extroverts do love playing host. Creating welcoming and effective entertaining venues for everything from dinner parties and game nights to impromptu get-togethers is paramount in an extrovert’s home.

THE VIBE Think bigger, brighter, and bolder. While it doesn’t have to be Times Square, an extrovert’s decor should contain pops of expression. This may be splashes of color and patterns, eye-catching accent pieces,
or statement-making art. They favor open floor plans, with tons of seating and plenty of conversation-starting decor. Furniture positioning should encourage a flow throughout the space so guests will mingle and move, but should also provide ample options for lingering and lounging.

THE ELEMENTS Extroverts may appreciate an expansive dining room table surrounded by supremely comfortable seating for at least eight; a bar cart or cabinet that serves as a destination for drinks as well as dialogue; thoughtfully chosen and intriguing books and accessories that promote discussion; and a mix of hard and soft materials to create a more stimulating space.
THE INTROVERT In contrast to extroverts, an introvert finds that being around people will eventually drain their energy. They are recharged from time spent alone. As a result, their ideal space will provide a relaxing sanctuary, away from the outside world, to facilitate their rejuvenation.

THE KEY ROOMS Introverts prioritize personal well-being, so it is not surprising that their bedroom and primary bathroom are the spaces they value in their home. A reading nook, whether it is actually used for reading or working on a device, watching television, or a mindfulness minute, is also a cherished spot for introverts. THE VIBE Hygge, the Danish concept of a cozy and comfortable mood that encourages wellness and contentment, is key in introverted design. Ideal colors are neutrals or hues that fundamentally evoke calm and serenity, like green or blue. Layering those colors with interesting textures gives a soothing depth to the

interior. The goal is to create enclosed spaces or intimate vignettes that foster reflection and focus while steering clear of anything that may lead to overstimulation. THE ELEMENTS Introverts often seek elements such as an inviting bed with soft bedding, plenty of pillows, and a decadent throw; a luxurious tub or spa-inspired shower; a plush chaise lounge that invites relaxation; and rugs to sink your feet in and add warmth to a room.

These statement-making chairs have a lot to say when it comes to style and sophistication
IN A NUTSHELL While the striking silhouette of this Coconut chair ($3,495) from George Nelson for Herman Miller is true eye candy, the shallow sides and alluring curves also deliver comfort by offering occupants effortless repositioning for relaxation. Design Within Reach, West Palm Beach (dwr.com)
JESSICA GLYNN
BUBBLE UP Innovation meets function and emotion in this handmade Bubble chair (starting at $4,490) from Roche Bobois that necessitated the development of stretch fabrics to sumptuously fit its round shape. Roche Bobois, North Palm Beach (roche-bobois.com) NOOK LOOK Krista Watterworth Alterman, founder and creative director of Krista + Home, created this nook for a family in Jupiter with reading or morning coffee in mind. “To achieve an organic look with no hard angles, I selected pieces with curved elements,” Alterman says. “The armchair has a unique curved shape with tapered walnut legs and tufted cushions that bring in a mid-century modern vibe. The curves repeat in the floor lamp and side table with a circular cutout for continuity. Finally, to give the room a well-lived and comfortable feel, we brought in bohemian touches by adding a throw pillow, rugs, and bright greenery.” Palm Beach Gardens (kristahome.com)
LOUNGE ACT The perfect destination for downtime, Palecek’s supremely cushioned Ella lounge chair ($2,700) in natural split rattan calls out for slowly sipped beverages and casual conversation.

HOME HERITAGE
Moderne Love By Marie Penny
1
A form of Art Deco that grew out of the Modern movement in the 1930s, Art Moderne architecture drew influence from the streamlined, aerodynamic shapes of planes, cars, and ships—emphasizing simple geometric forms, smooth surface finishes, and horizontal lines. In Palm Beach, architects adapted this sleek style to suit South Florida’s climate, using glass blocks to let abundant natural light pour inside while insulating against heat, and incorporating nautical elements like porthole windows and curvilinear forms to connect the buildings to the coastal environment. Here, we take a look at three of Palm Beach’s classic Art Moderne structures.
1. MOFFETT HOUSE WHO DESIGNED IT: John Volk WHEN WAS IT BUILT: 1935; designated
as a landmark in 2013. WHERE TO SEE IT: South Ocean Boulevard WHAT TO LOOK FOR: Some of the distinguishing Art Moderne elements of the Moffett House’s design include glass block windows, curved exterior walls, and metal railings.
2. THE REEF WHO DESIGNED IT: Maurice Fatio WHEN WAS IT BUILT: 1936; designated
as a landmark in 1990. WHERE TO SEE IT: North County Road WHAT TO LOOK FOR: Beyond Art Moderne, The Reef is also an example of the International Style. Feted as an architectural gem at The Paris Exposition of 1937, it boasts smooth and uniform wall surfaces, expanses of windows, and an absence of ornamentation.
3. FORE AND AFT WHO DESIGNED IT: Belford Shoumate WHEN WAS IT BUILT: 1937; designated 146 PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED
as a landmark in 1986. WHERE TO SEE IT: North Lake Way WHAT TO LOOK FOR: Is it a house or a ship run aground on the shore of the Lake Trail? Fore and Aft is both, marked by geometric motifs, exterior decks and railings, and porthole windows. An architectural marvel of its day, the nautically inspired building was featured in the 1939 World’s Fair as one of the Houses of Tomorrow.

WHAT SETS YOU APART FROM OTHER REAL ESTATE BROKERS?
What sets us apart from other real estate brokers is that we have been living and selling real estate on Palm Beach for over 30 years. I recently started to sell real estate with my mother, Cristina Condon. We have a unique knowledge of special and extraordinary properties on the island of Palm Beach and have a long history of repeat business and referrals. Our sellers and buyers call us first when they are looking to sell or buy an exceptional trophy property or pied-à-terre. Right now, we have one of the most beautiful collections of waterfront listings on Palm Beach. Being part of the Sotheby’s International Realty network also sets us apart from other real estate brokers since it affords us access to some of the most prestigious contacts around the world to market Palm Beach properties.
BE IN THE KNOW! Palm Beach Illustrated intrigues, entertains, keeps readers informed on trends in dining, fashion, beauty, the arts and entertainment, fun and celebrities. Meet locals who are making their mark and discover all that is happening in the area.
PALM BEACH HAS ALWAYS BEEN CONSIDERED A PLAYGROUND FOR THE RICH AND FAMOUS. HOW HAS IT EVOLVED?
Palm Beach is a beautiful island with lush landscapes and idyllic weather, which, in the past, has been its biggest draw. Historically, it has drawn buyers looking for seasonal winter homes, allowing them to escape the cold while enjoying the highest level of security and privacy. Over the past few years, Palm Beach has been undergoing an exciting new resurgence that is piquing the interest of young families who are moving here year-round. New developments, restaurants, and retail are helping to create a buzz of energy to the town. Multigenerational families are now interested in establishing roots in Palm Beach on a yearly basis, making the island less seasonal.
IN WHAT WAY IS PALM BEACH UNIQUE FROM OTHER REAL ESTATE MARKETS?
The market in Palm Beach is incomparable. Typically, properties here have always sustained value regardless of outside market factors. Unlike other markets that fluctuate based on macroeconomic conditions, Palm Beach continues to thrive, making it a safe alternative investment to the financial market. Situated between the Intracoastal and the Atlantic Ocean, Palm Beach is such a special town with limited real estate available, truly making it like no other place in the world. Everyone wants their own little piece of paradise.

TRISTRAM KENTON
Skin Care EN POINTE Rhode Island–born Tristan Dyer made a name for himself with beautiful ballet performances, but the former soloist is now dancing his way into the world of beauty as a skin care aficionado and PBI’s newest contributor. After graduating from The Royal Ballet School in 2009, Dyer remained with the company until his retirement in 2020, delivering numerous standout performances during his professional tenure. While physical training was a critical part of his preparation, Dyer came to appreciate the importance of skin care as well. “While working closely with many makeup artists during my ballet career, taking care of my skin was an essential part of my daily routine,” Dyer says. “I developed a keen and intrinsic
interest under the skin care umbrella and furthered my research and understanding of products naturally as time progressed.” Now Dyer brings his close relationships with skin care companies and knowledge of the industry to PBI readers with an insightful new “Skin Deep” column that speaks to an essential, and sometimes undervalued, beauty topic. “The importance of skin care is undeniably significant in one’s journey through aging,” he adds. “From youth through maturity, preventive [care] as well as maintenance of your skin not only pleases the visual facade, but also cuts through to the core of keeping an all-around healthy structure.” Turn the page for Dyer’s PBI premiere. —Liza Grant Smith

Collagen Boosters
REPAIR ELASTICITY AND WARD OFF WRINKLES WITH HELP FROM THESE PRODUCTS By Tristan Dyer
The quest to obtain a natural glow and youthful appearance—sans cosmetic surgery—starts with your daily beauty routine. A well-curated regime should ideally include products that promote the production of collagen, a protein that gives skin its structure. As we age, not only do we lose existing collagen, but it becomes more difficult for our bodies to make it, resulting in undesired sagging and wrinkles. Ingredients such as retinol and hyaluronic acid can help to restore collagen, thereby rebuilding elasticity, rejuvenating stretched areas, and boosting strength and durability. Here are five of my favorite collagensupporting products to add to your arsenal.

BALANCE SPORT
GAME ON Put down your beach read and pump up the fun quotient of your next trip to the sand with three innovative beach diversions designed to encourage interaction, amusement, and a little healthy competition. Fed up with heavy and expensive beach games, a group of friends created TidalBall (tidalball.com) on Folly Beach in South Carolina. After fellow beachgoers kept asking to buy their handmade set, the friends decided it was time to share their creation with the world. TidalBall can be played anywhere there’s sand, and it “combines the competition of cornhole, the ease of bocce ball, and the portability of a turkey sandwich,” says Chad Brophy, the company’s co-owner. Players use the provided shovel to create a scoring area with two holes and two trenches behind the holes to catch balls. Four players (split into two teams) then alternate tosses like in horseshoes. If the ball lands in the hole, it’s three points, and if it’s in the trench, it’s one point. First team to reach 21 wins. Each set comes with a shovel and six waterproof, sand-proof, lightweight balls, so the game is an easy addition to any beach bag. For paddleball junkies there’s Jazzminton by Funsparks (funsparks.com). The

original version of this unique spin on badminton and pickleball is played without a net and you only need 5 to 30 feet of space. Sets come with two types of improved birdies that are designed to work well in the wind and react to the strength of the hit—one with feathers to make it slower and the other with just the ball to make it faster. Players serve to one another and rally back and forth. The challenge level is determined by how easy or aggressive players opt to hit. For added fun, invest in the Jazzminton Sport, which includes an easyto-assemble net with a rectangular opening that players must hit the birdies through. BucketBall (bucket ball.com) takes beer pong out of the frat house and onto the beach in a large-scale version that’s far more family-friendly (but just as fun) as the original. Due to car space con-
straints on a trip to Nags Head, North Carolina, Brandon Spady, David Jenkins, and friends only brought a football and quickly grew bored throwing it around. They headed to a beach store, found beach buckets and tennis balls, and created their own game. It was a hit, with their friend group as well as with others who saw what a blast they were having.
Spady and Jenkins, both professional mechanical engineers from Virginia Tech, developed UV-resistant, high-impact buckets that sit flush with one another, game balls that are the perfect size and weight, and a tote bag. They also now offer inflatable racks that allow BucketBall to be played anywhere—even on water. With sales in all 50 states and more than 10 countries, it seems that people are eager to join the BucketBall party. —L.G.S.

Life CYCLE
Lift Vero’s JoyRide Theater provides fully customized, professionally designed, immersive experiences for cyclists of every skill level.
l
Forget everything you thought you knew about indoor cycling: Lift Vero has changed the game with the 2021 opening of its JoyRide Theater. The studio is the first in Florida to offer an intelligent cycling experience with real-time data, immersive graphics, and interactive workouts for every level of cyclist. Adding to their street cred, literally, is the fact that owners (and certified personal trainers) Steve and Bonnie Pfiester have foregone tired beach decor for an urban nightclub feel, with exposed brick walls adorned with vivid graffiti. The ride program technology breaks up the workouts into shorter intervals with minute-by-minute coaching and mini goals along the way, as well as tracking of calories burned, heart rate, and rpms throughout the ride for greater personal accountability. More than just effective, however, the workouts are fun. “We often say we are not in the fitness business as much as in the entertainment business, simply because we realize the importance of keeping our clients’ attention and having them look forward to coming back over and over again,” says Bonnie. “Each of these cycling classes is programmed in advance with great detail to music, target rpms, and power. That’s in addition to handpicked visuals on our 10-foot, 4k projection screen that takes you everywhere from prehistoric worlds filled with dinosaurs to troll-inhabited underground mineshafts and even an underwater cycling experience. With over 30,000 professionally designed workouts, they never get old.” Want to start pedaling without commitment? Area residents can try before they buy or opt for short-term memberships and passes.

SMELL Test
Before the recall of Old Spice and Secret antiperspirants due to the use of benzene (a toxic chemical), the no-deodorant movement caught steam last summer when musician Lizzo shared that she—like actor Matthew McConaughey—doesn’t use deodorant. It seems they’re not alone, and reasons for abandoning deodorant vary. Most conventional antiperspirants contain chemicals that may cause harm over time. Aluminum, an FDA-approved ingredient found in popular products such as Old Spice and Secret deodorants, is reported to accumulate in the body, leading to potential adverse health effects. Parabens, also often used in deodorants and beauty products, can disrupt hormones. Other consumers do away with antiperspirants because they’re packaged in single-use plastic. There are now a range of all-natural options as well as widely available alternatives that come in compostable packaging. Deodorants can be made with organic, vegan, and cruelty-free ingredients—meaning they lack the aluminum, parabens, fragrances, and harsh chemicals we’re accustomed to finding in the beauty aisle. Here, we outline three chemical-free alternatives. —Flose LaPierre 180 PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED
1. Reach for the fruit bowl. Purchase organic lemons and apply freshly squeezed lemon juice or oils to your armpits. Lemon kills bacteria and may leave you smelling citrusyfresh for hours. There’s no plastic involved, and a single lemon will last up to a week refrigerated in a Stasher silicon bag or a glass jar.
2. Heavy sweaters need not fear. Available as a stick or in a jar, Schmidt’s natural deodorant offers 24-hour protection. There are no harsh or toxic chemicals, and the scents come courtesy of essential oils. (shop. schmidts.com) 3. Opt for natural deodorant in an eco-friendly tube.

Food for Thought For those hankering to incorporate some locally sourced protein into their organic food crusade, add Okeechobee-based Biofarm Grassfed Provisions to your list of sources. After the 2008 financial crisis, Alessandra Dias and her husband, Enoque, were looking for a way to start over and landed on the idea of raising organic chickens. Equipped with research on pasture-raised poultry farms and a strong work ethic, the two developed a farm model and the adventure began. While they originally focused on chickens and their eggs, they eventually added pasture-raised turkeys for Thanksgiving and ducks for their eggs. Smallscale, sustainable beekeeping followed, as well as the latest addition: Angus beef. Despite the evolving offerings, one thing that has never changed is the couple’s respect for their animals and how they are raised. “Our holistic mindset is twofold,” says Alessandra. “First of all, we provide a habitat for our animals that is stress-free so they can provide us with food that is free from toxins and stress hormones that fill the factory, commercial-farm products nowadays. And second, we also stay away from medicating or giving any type of hormones to our animals, including the chemicalfree pastures they graze on all day.” In addition to attending local green markets, Biofarm offers a product pick-up for customers at the Palm Beach Gardens City Hall every Friday.

If one of your goals is to stay more organized, be sure to account for your digital files as well. “Most people have issues with digital clutter,” notes Ellen Faye, a certified productivity leadership coach and past president of the National Association of Productivity & Organizing Professionals. Digital clutter encompasses everything that may build up on your computer and other devices, such as music, photos, emails, files, or even an overcrowded desktop. This type of clutter can be easy to overlook because you don’t notice it in the same way you do stuff piling up in your closet or garage. Besides hurting productivity, digital clutter can impact mental health. Faye says people can lose sleep worrying about missed emails in an overfull inbox or never fully relax after finishing work. “If you don’t know what work isn’t done and you don’t know what’s sitting in your inbox … you never can really be at peace,” she says. Thousands of unread emails, 20-plus open browser windows, or unending photo folders are all signs of digital clutter. When it affects your quality of life—for example, by slowing down your computer, preventing you from finding a file, or causing stress— it’s time to do something about it. “When you get trash in your house, do you leave that sitting on your counter, on your floor, or do you throw it away?” Faye asks. “We want to get in that same habit.” Here, she offers a few tips for cleaning up your digital space. (ellenfaye.com) —Erika Klein
1
To get started, Faye recommends using the four Ds: Delete if it’s not important; delegate tasks to family members or employees; delay and put it on a to-do list if necessary; or do it now, especially if it won’t take long. “If you really want to come back [to] it, schedule it or put it on your to-do list,” she advises.
2
Emails are a common area of digital buildup. Faye suggests moving your old emails into a separate folder. “What you’re doing is preserving your inbox for important things that need action,” she says. Then, “your productivity is boosted because you’re not reading the same things over and over again.” She also recommends choosing a number of emails, such as 150 or 500, that will signal to you that it’s time to clean out your inbox before the amount gets out of control.
3
For those who need more detailed steps to follow, Faye advises searching online. If you wish to organize your passwords, for instance, she says, “all you have to do is google, ‘How do I manage my passwords better?’ Do some research, come up with a plan, and then execute on the plan.” Of course, not everyone is good at organizing on their own. In that case, Faye recommends finding professional help. With digital organization, you can even be assisted virtually.
4
Digital discarding can be tough. If you have trouble deleting old photos or files to start getting organized, Faye offers some final advice: “If everything’s important, nothing is important. You can’t find the treasure if you keep the trash.”

Ultra-wealthy Palm Beach and Collier counties share the distinction of being home to some of the most generous philanthropists in Florida.
WEALTH
Charity Begins at HOME
Why donor-advised funds are the fastest growing CHARITABLE-GIVING vehicle in the U.S. By Judy Martel American generosity marked an all-time high in 2019, with donations to charity totaling nearly $450 billion, according to the latest Giving Report by the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy at Indiana University–Purdue University Indianapolis. But that impressive statistic doesn’t tell the whole story. In Florida, a different report reveals an uneven philanthropic landscape— one that in 2018 was mostly concentrated on a tale of two ultra-wealthy counties: Collier and Palm Beach. A study of individual giving from 2011 to 2018 186 PALM BEACH ILLUSTRATED
by Florida Nonprofit Alliance, a statewide association of nonprofit organizations, shows that the bulk of individual charitable contributions originated in Southeast and Southwest Florida. Furthermore, the pool of statewide donors has been steadily shrinking from a cross section of Floridians to a smaller group of wealthier contributors. “I think it’s fair to expect the wealthy to give more,” says Leah McDermott, program manager of Florida Nonprofit Alliance. But disproportionate giving at the community level means
some areas of the state will benefit more than others. Individuals make up the lion’s share of charitable donors, and every contribution, however small, can still make an impact. “The money doesn’t mean less because the amount is less,” McDermott adds. “We hope we can inspire all income levels in all regions of the state to give.” Based on reported IRS data for charitable giving, in 2011 47 percent of the total donations in the state came from individuals with an adjusted gross income of $200,000 or more. By 2018, 75 percent of contributions came from upper-income donors, but the pool was significantly smaller, says McDermott. What’s more, donors in just four Florida counties—Palm Beach, Miami-Dade, Broward, and Collier— were responsible for 46 percent of all charitable contributions in the state in 2018. Two of those counties were particularly notable: Palm Beach
County donations increased a whopping $539,000 (27 percent) from 2016 to 2018, while Collier County came in second, increasing by $106,000. Leslie Lenkowsky, PhD and professor emeritus of public affairs and philanthropic studies at Indiana University, has been following the upward trend in giving among the wealthy and credits donor-advised funds (DAFs) for part of the upswing. Individuals establish these increasingly popular charitable funds through a sponsoring organization, often a community foundation, though it could also be a bank or mutual fund. “Think of a donor-advised fund like a bank account that exclusively holds deposits until donors are ready to make a ‘withdrawal’ by allocating the money to a specific charity,” Lenkowsky explains. These funds are relatively easy to set up, and donors enjoy the same tax benefits as if they gave directly to charity, but with an added feature that allows them to take an immediate tax deduction in the year in which they contrib-
ute the money to the DAF while waiting months, or even years, before determining which charities the funds will benefit. This ability to front-load the fund with money and decide where to allocate it later was especially attractive in 2017, the year before the Tax Cut and Jobs Act went into effect, says Sabeen Perwaiz, executive director of Florida Nonprofit Alliance. The new tax law increased the standard deduction, and some
financial advisers counseled the wealthy to “bundle” charitable contributions into a single year before the changes took effect, so a higher deduction could be claimed among those who itemize. Philanthropic giving in Florida will likely continue to fluctuate each year, based on various factors including income security, stock market performance, and community need. Perwaiz finds a ray of hope in the influx of new residents to Florida and says that Florida Nonprofit Alliance plans to do a “deeper dive” by conducting a survey of giving to help them better understand how to engage potential donors. “At the end of the day, people are giving,” says Lenkowsky. The test in Florida will be finding ways to consistently engage donors across the wealth strata. Since the recession, charitable contributions from those with incomes under $100,000 have been dropping off, says Perwaiz, “and we really do need that to come back.” «

LAST WORD How do the two of you divide and conquer the responsibilities of being co-creative directors? Fernando: We have different aesthetics, but we bring our points of view into each piece we create. That balance is what pushes the product to the best level possible. We have different perspectives about what a woman should wear, but each and every time we combine the ideas the result is always an improvement. It’s a collaborative process that can
REAL TALK WITH...
Laura Kim & Fernando Garcia The creative directors of Oscar de la Renta dish on upholding the brand’s legacy while dressing the modern woman BY KATHERINE LANDE start from a clipping, a piece of art, an Instagram post, or even a movie—we bring it to the table and discuss why we love it. What was the best lesson you learned from Mr. de la Renta? Fernando: We always remember Oscar wanting the newest thing, and we continue to keep this at the forefront when designing, always looking for the youngest ideas and materials in order to move forward in our collections. What is the other’s greatest strength? Laura: Fernando has many, but he is very easygoing. He has a great ability to smooth everything over and help move things forward. Fernando: Laura is a great team leader. She never appears stressed or worried in front of the team, but she does share with me, and I am happy to share the load. 216

What was your inspiration for the Spring/Summer 2022 collection? Laura: We were inspired by the edible gardens found in farmers markets throughout New York City. We were particularly drawn to the magnolia leaf, with its soft, suede-like underside. Oscar de la Renta is known for evening wear, especially in Palm Beach. How are you modernizing the collections while staying true to the roots of the brand? Fernando: The Oscar woman likes to look and feel polished. Laura and I believe that, today, a woman needs to be comfortable. We are introducing a sense of versatility with evening separates, suiting, even denim to make the brand feel more approachable for today’s woman. How has the Oscar de la Renta customer evolved? Fernando: Our woman is no longer the lady who lunches, so it is our job to update this idea for our existing clientele in a modern, sophisticated way. Today’s woman is busy, and the clothes need to be comfortable. We aim to keep the silhouettes simple and elegant so the designs will appeal to a new audience, yet not alienate our loyal customer. We want our customer to be able to purchase everything she needs for her wardrobe at Oscar. Cocktail dresses and gowns, yes, but also options for every day. How would you describe modern Palm Beach style? Laura: Classic, bold, colorful
