Jenny's Miami Guide
With our seemingly endless winter in Toronto, I left the snow behind for some sand in Miami. This time, I was there to shoot our Summer18 campaign (see those shots here); I was craving freshness for the Jenny Bird brand and I felt like my Birdgirls would be craving that too when it came time to release the campaign.
After the shoot was done, I do what I do every time I'm in Miami. This is my ideal day in the city of sun.

It all begins at the Soho Beach House, and then straight to the beach for a run and some yoga, followed by some less active all-day beach chilling. Then, to an early dinner at Mandolin Miami for fresh fish and delicious Greek eats. Mandolin is located in Miami's Design District. I like to go there around 4PM, so that I have time to take a walk as the sun sets over the district and all its art galleries and shops.
My favourite places:
WHERE TO STAY | Soho Beach House
I got to Miami the night before the shoot and had a few moments of relaxation to myself.
WHERE TO EAT AND SHOP | Mandolin Miami | Mrs. Mandolin
Mandolin Miami, an aegean bistro serving yummy recipes from Greece and Turkey, was opened by husband and wife team, Anastasia Koutsioukis and Ahmet Erkaya in 2009. It’s my go-to when I’m in Miami; the one place I make a point of going to for their simple and delicious meals.
Their newest venture: Mrs. Mandolin, a cafe and lifestyle store inspired by travel, culture and the effortless ease of the Mediterranean curated by Anastasia.
