Miami
A City Stitched in Gold Light and Baselines
-
What to Wear (Weather): Miami is hot and humid (especially May - October), so dressing in breathable fabrics such as linen and cotton will be in your best interest. Bring a swimsuit for the beach, along with some shades and sandals. Miami can also have some heavy downpours, so an umbrella or rain jacket will always be handy.
​
-
When to Go (Peak Season): From December to April, Miami is dry, sunny, and much less humid, but on the flip side, prices go up and so do crowds. For a more chill session, May to October is ideal.
​
-
How to Act (Culture): Miami is bold with attitude, rhythm, and style. In this city, confidence will get you far, along with tipping your servers, being friendly, and always dressing like you are five minutes away from a photo shoot.
​
-
Who All Gone Be There (General Population): Miami has a beautiful mix of Caribbean and Southern roots, such as Haitians, Jamaicans, Bahamians, Southern folks, with a heavy Latinx population (knowing Spanish will be a huge benefit). This is also one of the biggest tourist cities in the US, so keep this in mind during peak season.
