Palm Beach, Florida has long evoked visions of splendor. It’s a place where the elite families of NYC come to vacation. More importantly, it’s a pristine town without even the slightest palm frond out of place. No matter who you are,
Read Up On Your History
The history of Palm Beach is just as glitzy and glamorous as the fabled Vias along Worth Avenue. Before you take a trip to Palm Beach, I highly recommend reading up on some of the local lore. I promise you’ll appreciate everything so much more! Some of my favorite reads include Bubble in the Sun by Christopher Knowlton and Lilly by Kathryn Livingston. The latest Palm Beach book on my radar, that I saw while shopping is Suzie Zuzek for Lilly Pulitzer by Susan Brown. Anything that combines fashion and history is sure to be a win for me!
Get Up Early
This is always my recommendation when traveling and it deserves repeating! I woke up with the sunrise each morning in Palm Beach. The result is having Worth Avenue practically to myself. With I was able to window shop at myself pace and really wander through the Vias. Each time I found something new and aesthetically gorgeous!
Start With A Cup of Coffee
Caffeine always gets the day off to a good start. For me, I found myself instinctually strolling to The Colony Hotel and their Cafe 155. Inside is a beautiful of pastels and palms with a surprisingly long menu. With iced soy latte in hand, served in a fetching monogrammed cup, I was ready to take on the day! When you’re in Palm Beach, that includes a lot of shopping and dining!
Don’t Skip the Vias
Along Worth Avenue, there are several Vias that cut through to Peruvian Avenue and lead to beautiful courtyards. While the Main Street has countless high end designer shops, you can also find some gem boutiques along the side streets. The most famous of the Vias is Via Mizner, named for Palm Beach architect, Addison Mizner. Today it holds shops and the Italian restaurant, Renato. Back in the day, it was also home to the original boutique from Lilly Pulitzer.
Madison Avenue, Rodeo Drive, Worth Avenue. Every chic town has its own picturesque street lined with designer shops and cafes. Palm Beach is no exception. With it’s manicured bougainvilleas and endless palm trees, it may just be my favorite!
