Bal Harbour Sojourn

Nestled within lush tropical foliage, fountains, ponds and dark marble, between the Atlantic Ocean and Biscayne Bay, on the site of what used to be WWII Army barracks, lays what can be appropriately described as America's petite Champs-Elysee: Bal Harbor Shops.  With the presence of more than 100 luxury houses, including such American soil rarities as Brioni, Brunello Cucinelli, Chanel Joaillerie (some very nice J12s), Vilebrequin, and as of late 2009, Lanvin (mais seulement pour les femmes malheureusement), Bal Harbour Shops has consistently been ranked the number one most productive shopping center in the U.S..

  2. Yeah, pictures can't really capture the atmosphere and the climate either, think very tropical, high humidity and the sounds of fountains everywhere...
