A Week in Palm Beach: Sunshine, Style & The Most Beautiful Escape

There’s something about Palm Beach that just feels magical—the palm-lined streets, pastel architecture, ocean breeze… it’s like stepping into a dream. This past week, Jimmy and I traveled there with his family, and it was truly one of the most beautiful, refreshing trips I’ve ever taken. We stayed at The Breakers Palm Beach, and I can confidently say—it is the most stunning hotel I’ve ever experienced. From the architecture to the service to the ocean views… every detail felt luxurious and unforgettable.


Monday: Travel Day & Poolside Bliss

Our day started early—like really early. We left at 5:00 AM (up since 3:00), so comfort was key. I wore my Gianni Bini satin wide-leg pants with a matching cardigan and white mesh ballet flats—an easy, polished airport look.


We arrived Monday morning, checked in, and headed straight to the Beach Club for lunch. I ordered the goat cheese salad, and it was so refreshing and flavorful—paired with a direct view of the pool and ocean, it felt like the perfect welcome to paradise. After lunch, we changed and spent the rest of the day lounging by the pool, soaking up the sunshine. I wore a fun tropical one-piece (a dupe of the Oceanus Maya suit) with my pink Miu Miu sunglasses and a white sarong—such a cute, effortless pool look.


The boys played golf at the Breakers West Course while we relaxed, and that evening we ordered dinner from Buccan and enjoyed a quiet night in the courtyard. After such an early start, we called it a night pretty quickly.



Tuesday: Rainy Day Chic & A Night to Remember

We started the morning with breakfast in The Circle—if you go to The Breakers, you have to experience it. The buffet was incredible.

It was rainy all day, so I leaned into a cozy but elevated look: tan linen pants from The Loft, a white contour bodysuit from Express, a pink Ralph Lauren striped oxford, and a classic Ralph Lauren hat. Effortless but put-together. We spent the day shopping at Royal Poinciana Plaza and grabbed lunch (and the best matcha I’ve ever had) at Sant Ambroeus. Truly 10/10.



That evening, we attended a Rockin’ with the SEALs event at Trump International Golf Club. I wore my pink palm maxi dress from Confete with white strappy heels and my pink Tory Burch bag, paired with Julie Vos jewelry—it was such a fun, statement look. The venue was stunning, the event was so special, and we ended the night at a rooftop bar with friends before heading back.



Wednesday: Worth Avenue & The Best Dinner Ever

Another rainy day, but we didn’t let that stop us. After breakfast, the girls headed to Worth Avenue while the boys golfed (because apparently… it doesn't rain on the golf course). We stopped at DRIFT Coffee first—so good—and then spent the morning shopping and strolling. I wore a matching Mango set with a cardigan and Julie Vos statement accessories, and I got so many compliments on this outfit.



That night, we had dinner at The Seafood Bar at The Breakers—and wow. I ordered the pecan-crusted grouper with coconut lime rice and mango salsa… absolutely incredible. We finished with key lime pie, which was the perfect sweet ending. I wore a fun yellow satin high neck lace top with my printed Mango satin pants and loved the outfit.



Thursday: Sunshine, The Colony & A Dream Gala

Finally—sunshine!! We started the day at The Colony Hotel, and I was obsessed with the aesthetic. It’s so charming, colorful, and perfectly Palm Beach. I wore my pink striped Maude Club dress to match the vibe and paired it with the beautiful Julie Vos Portofino jewelry collection, and it truly felt like a moment. We spent the day shopping between Worth Avenue and Royal Poinciana again, and grabbed sandwiches from Buccan’s sandwich shop—Ali and I split the beef carpaccio sandwich, and it was honestly one of the best I’ve ever had.



That night was the main event: the Rockin’ with the SEALs Gala at Mar-a-Lago. It was breathtaking.

I wore my Sloanne Maxi Ruffle Dress from Confete, paired with ivory heels, a gold YSL clutch, and classic diamond jewelry. The ballroom was unlike anything I’ve ever seen—gold details everywhere, so grand and elegant. It was truly an unforgettable evening.



Friday: One Last Pool Day

Friday came way too fast. We had one last breakfast in The Circle, and I wore the cutest pink striped terry set from Rachel Antonoff—perfect for a relaxed final morning. Then it was pool time. I changed into a floral one-piece from Target with a matching cover-up and spent the day soaking up every last bit of sunshine. I walked the beach, enjoyed the ocean breeze, and had an acai bowl at the Beach Club for lunch—so refreshing.


Eventually, it was time to head back, shower, pack, and say goodbye. For the flight home, I went with a classic travel look: linen pants, a striped Sézane shirt, white mesh flats, a Polo hat, and my Longchamp tote.



Final Thoughts

Palm Beach completely stole my heart in a way I didn’t expect. Between the beauty of The Breakers Palm Beach, the incredible food, the dreamy shopping spots, and the mix of both relaxing and getting dressed up for special events—it truly felt like the perfect escape from everyday life. Every single day had its own rhythm, whether it was slow mornings at breakfast, rainy afternoon shopping, or sunny pool days that felt like they could last forever.


What made the trip even more special was getting to experience it all with Jimmy’s family. There’s something about traveling together—sharing meals, getting ready for events, laughing over little moments—that makes everything feel more meaningful and memorable.

I also felt so inspired creatively throughout the week. From the colors and architecture to the effortless Palm Beach style, it reminded me how much I love putting together outfits that feel fun, feminine, and expressive. It was one of those trips where I genuinely felt like myself—relaxed, confident, and fully present.


I left feeling refreshed, recharged, and so grateful for the experience. Palm Beach is one of those places that just stays with you and I'm already dreaming about going back 🤍
