This last Monday, my family and I flew down to Miami Beach in Florida. For 4 days and 3 nights, we enjoyed the sights and sounds of the area as much as possible. I mostly spent my days roaming the beach that was right behind our hotel. The feeling of the bright sun gleaming on your skin and the rush of sea water beneath you is indescribable. On the second day, we went on a bus and boat tour all around Miami. We visited places Little Havana, the Art Deco District, and many celebrity houses which were completely beautiful. The architecture around the whole city is very reminiscent of the 1920s/1930s and is a great representation of Cuban culture. My only regret is not taking any quality pictures of the salmon and pastel colored buildings near Collins Avenue

On February 7th, Circus Magazine collaborated with the Hispanic Journalists of Columbia and threw its first event. The event included live performances and a fashion show. Local Chicago acts like DJ 13lacula, Ashton Martin, Afro Fuzz, and the 151s performed all throughout the night. The fashion show was at the dead center of the event and I was so happy that I had the opportunity to help style and organize the show. The theme of the fashion show was the evolution of style. Anshunee and I styled looks inspired from the 1950s to the present.
