What was your favorite part about going to Key West?
We had such a fun and talented group of women on this trip. We created such beautiful pictures for our new SS24 Collection together. I'd say a favorite would be our evening dinners together. After long days of shooting we still wanted to share a beautiful a meal along with great conversation and laughter in any of the incredible restaurants Key West has to offer.
What are your go-to lunch spots in New Orleans?
We went to Frita’s Cuban Burger Cafe for lunch and had some delicious Cuban food. We sat outside and really enjoyed the experience. We also loved Eaton Street Seafood Market (best lobster roll).
Favorite dinner restaurants?
We all loved Nine One Five and had a really beautiful last meal together. We had handmade pastas and some seriously amazing key lime pie.
What hotel did we stay at?
We stayed at Marrero’s Guest Mansion and had a wonderful time. The staff was so friendly and helpful. The rooms were all decorated in different themes, and it was so dreamy! And word on the street, it's haunted!
What was your can't-miss moment?
Visiting the Hemingway House was so special. The historic home was breathtaking, and the stories were fascinating. We shot the Hemingway dress there because we had to!
Favorite activities for an ideal day in the sun?
Fort Zachary Taylor Beach! We went there for a few hours to shoot and it was a stunning and very relaxed beach. You can easily get there by golf cart or bike! We took a golf cart ride there and watched the sun go down!
A touristy attraction that you’d actually suggest?
Rent a bike! Best way to get around town and explore.
