Totally Chic
Christie Grays has always been a good dresser. She was named “Best Dressed” in 6th Grade and throughout high school and was featured on the cover of Brickell Magazine’s coveted “Dressed For Success” Issue in 2012. Launching I Am CHIC (Christie Has It Covered) was a natural progression. — Words by Sandy Lindsey
Practical Elegance
It’s understandable to assume the Swiss, the creators of Swatch and Rolex, have a monopoly on intricate yet utterly functional designs. The German firm of Glashütte, however, shatters that stereotype with a run of 25 dazzling timepieces. — Words by Bill Lindsey
Zesty Secret
Vitamin C is a beloved skincare ingredient that helps with the appearance of uneven skin tone and pigmentation while protecting your dermis from environmental elements and signs of aging. But there’s one downside — and, yay! — a potential solution. — Words by Zelda Grant

Social Life

Fancy Feet
Reflexology is so much more than just a foot rub. It is a 6,000-year-old healing art based on stimulating reflex points on the feet, hands and ears that correspond to different parts of the body. — Words by Sandy Lindsey

Ever since the first words rolled dramatically across movie theater screens, the world has been aware of that “galaxy far, far away” that is Star Wars. Now you can have that intergalactic chic in your home. — Words by Stacy Wynn
Savvy Shoppers
If the words “hotel lobby” make you think of somewhere you merely pay attention to when checking in and checking out, think again! Hotel lobbies, such as the InterContinental Miami, are the latest mini retail hotpots in town. — Words by Sandy Lindsey
Legacy Hasselblad
For its 75th birthday in 2016, Hasselblad released the X1D, the world’s first compact mirrorless medium format camera. The X1D II 50C continues the evolution with improved usability, better performance and a cheaper pricetag. — Words by Sandy Lindsey
GOAL Time!
A watch should do more than simply keep time, but it must do that well. The very venerable Swiss firm of Tissot shows us how it is done with the latest version of their Quickster Football Watch. — Words by Sandy Lindsey
SS Badboy
Even to the saltiest of us, most yachts look pretty much alike; white hull, pointy in the front, flat in the back. A gaggle of them at the marina could induce snow blindness. The OTAM 85 GTS, however, would restore your vision. — Words by Bill Lindsey | Photos by Photos by Tom Van Oossanen
