Miami is no longer just a stop on the holiday circuit; it’s a year-round city with a definitive fashion pulse and a growing cast of characters who are defining its style. Here, we catch up with a few socially-connected women to get a little inspiration from the fall season, from “it” bags to pressing causes.

Current brand obsession: Pinko
Shoe addiction: I really don’t like to discriminate in this category, but Stuart Weitzman are my OG faves. I have the Nudist sandal in every color.
Fave Fall trend: Boots. Currently craving white booties–and a cold destination to wear them.
Most important cause: I’ve always supported cancer causes as it has touched my family one too many times. And, since losing my grandfather earlier this year to an aggressive brain cancer, it’s more important to me than ever to help find a cure.
It Bag: I think the idea of the “it” bag has died down in recent years. My everyday bag is a classic Louis Vuitton Petit Noé bucket that always feels fresh.
