Present Tense
Shopping for loved ones in the Miami Design District is an experience. Time it right and make sure to check out the stunning Bulgari Christmas tree on Palm Court, check out new stores like Reformation, Byredo and Boheme, and end your day with a meal at Swan or Kaido. And look up in the trees to see Donzie Kanu’s holiday installation of birdcages (through Jan. 2). Retail experiences don’t get better than this.
