Bal Harbour Shops hosted its 8th Annual Ice Cream We Love philanthropic event on Saturday, January 17th, and Sunday, January 18th, during Martin Luther King Jr. weekend. This beloved event once again benefited Holtz Children’s Hospital at the University of Miami/Jackson Memorial Medical Center. All weekend long, the lush walkways were transformed into an ice cream wonderland, featuring 18 pop-ups from beloved national and local brands, including Peek Á Treat, Santo Dulce!, The Baked Bear, Miami “N” Ice, and many more. Alongside classic cones and indulgent sundaes, Bal Harbour Shops also introduced a savory offering for the first time: cheesy quesadillas from Taquiza. Families enjoyed live DJ beats, were entertained by a juggler, and participated in activities such as the Sweet Treat Charm Bar, Face Paint Glitter Bar, Ice Cream Embroidery Bar, Pick and Mix Candy Cart, Bloom Bar, and many other fun experiences throughout the Shops.
As we stay glued to Men’s Fashion Weeks around the world, we can’t help but be inspired by what’s also happening in our own fashion hub, courtesy of Isaia at Bal Harbour Shops.
The perms and press-on nails we can leave in the ‘80s, but when it comes to retro-neon-sparkle appeal, we’re happy to step into the future in the latest from Gianvito Rossi, available here at Bal Harbour Shops.
Thank you to everyone who came out this weekend to support our 8th-annual Ice Cream We Love event, with proceeds benefiting Holtz Children’s Hospital. From mint-chip cones to Neapolitan ice cream sandwiches, vanilla shakes, and frozen delights galore, we hope you enjoyed this cherished charitable event.
He didn’t just design gowns worthy of red carpets and elite galas, he created an entire universe of Italian glamour. From the label’s founding in Rome in 1960, Valentino was always known for a high-level of craftsmanship, effortless elegance—and of course, an emphasis on striking shades of red. As one of the first European designers to arrive at Bal Harbour Shops, at the luxury boutique Martha’s, we will cherish him forever in our hearts, as well as in our closets. Valentino Garavani, 1939–2026.
