Jazzy June in Palm Beach

June is quite jazzy and steaming up this month, here in Palm Beach County!

Le Rendez-vous has live music on Sunday nights and Tuesday nights, and you never know who’s going to be jammin’ there! It’s at 221 Datura Street off of Olive in downtown West Palm Beach – a fantastic place with fashion videos and delicious small bites- it’s a great romantic spot.

Then there’s Banko Cantina – it’s a three story restored bank building on Olive just south of Clematis Street, right around the corner from Le Rendez-vous where you can see a fabulous live Motown group singin’ and swingin’. The Motown Sound is on Tuesday nights, but you can always call them for additional information at (561) 355 – 1399.

In North County up in Jupiter it is The Double Roads Tavern off of Indiantown Road on US-1. They’re always having celebrations and anniversaries of all types of jazz, rock n’ roll, and blues. I highly recommend it!

I know Tony Silver and his band will be jammin’ at Dorian’s on Saturday night this week on Clematis Street, another great place to get your toes tapping.

Let’s not forget, in the South part of the county in Boca Raton, it’s the Funky Biscuit! They have live music just about every night of the week. Monday night is blues night – can’t miss that!

A funky venue that knows how to party — A funky venue that has fabulous live music

On Thursday nights every week, at the Waterfront in West Palm Beach, it’s Clematis By Night. This Thursday night, June 1st, Summer in Paradise opens with a tribute band to Michael Jackson called Man in the Mirror. Great activity for the whole family.

Clematis by Night - bring the whole family — Clematis by Night – bring the whole family

Also, there are special activities on Thursday night at the Norton Art Museum for free! Art After Dark – check it out in your local listings. There’s a good chance you’ll hear some live music – always interesting.

Always an interesting collection to see at the Norton — It’s always very entertaining at the Norton on Thursday nights

A couple of my favorites, Michael Masci at the Pelican Cafe every Thursday night this summer – he’ll be singing the American Songbook.

And, Raquel Williams! Singing the beautiful ballads and swinging songs at the Polo Lounge at the Colony Hotel on Saturday night – not to be missed!

As the summer starts to sizzle, and June’s breezes are blowing with swingin’ jazz, remember, it’s all about dressing with style. Bring out those lightweight whites, brights, and pastels.

Palm Beach is Hoppin’

Listen below for a highlight reel of the best social events in Palm Beach County! Bonnie’s Buzz About Town airs every Thursday morning in the 9 o’clock hour on Legends Radio 100.3 FM! Head to their homepage at legendsradio.com and look for Bonnie’s Buzz.

Everyone is hopping around like little bunnies in Palm Beach this week!

If you want to see some wonderful crafts and artwork, go to CityPlace this weekend, Saturday and Sunday, it’s the CityPlace Art Fair! Always a winner.

A fun thing to do is: My Life On A Diet, with Renee Taylor. She’s hysterical! It’s at Mizner Park Cultural Center in Boca on March 30th and April 1st – don’t miss!

A must-see event! — Renee is known for playing the mother of Fran Drescher in the TV show ‘The Nanny’ – she’s hilarious!

Before all the Easter Egg hunts begin, check out an exhibit at the Ann Norton Sculpture Gardens – Rising: The Mystical World of Sophie Ryder – April 30th.

My movie pick of the week: Beauty and the Beast. A must-see for the entire family. Try to see it on the IMAX screen. A wonderful film.

On April 3rd it’s the final event of the Cultural Council of the Palm Beaches, it’s Culture & Cocktails: An interview with Rob Russell and Jill & Rich Switzer. Informative and entertaining!

Talking about The Colony, one of my favorite crooners is Michael Masci! He tickles the ivories and does his crooning thing at the Polo Lounge every Tuesday through Thursday night during the season. Hop over there, and make sure you don’t miss him – he’s a treat!

If you want to slow down the pace a bit, do a walking history tour at the West Palm Beach Green Market on April 1st at 10 AM. Join local historian and architect Rick Gonzalez for a fun and lively morning tour. For further information, go to wpb.org/events.

Whether you hop, skip or jump this week, it’s all about style: pull out your brights, your whites and pastels.

Keep it light, bright, and fun for springtime!

The Nantucket Project

What an incredible journey! This year’s Nantucket Project brought in the best and the brightest writers, politicians, artists, and world leaders to the island of Nantucket for a whirlwind week that was certainly a meeting of the minds.

It was fabulous to hear so many successful people tell their stories. Norman Lear, creator of All in the Family, The Jeffersons and Good Times, took us through his groundbreaking career in television. At 94 years old, he is still producing: He just wrapped a 13 episode show for Netflix that premieres January 2nd. It’s a cuban version of One Day At a Time, starring Rita Moreno. I can’t wait to watch – she’s been a client and a friend for years!

Left: Bonnie and Rita Moreno. Right: Bonnie with Norman Lear.

Acclaimed actor Paul Giamatti, known for his work in Sideways, the HBO series John Adams and more, is currently traveling the country with his project called Theater of Wars. He and his fellow actors are performing Greek Tragedies for veterans all over the United States.

Another voice taking the stage was two-time Olympic gold medalist Hope Solo, the best goal-keeper in the world. She now has a new goal: fighting for equal pay for women. Monica Lewinsky is an anti-bullying ambassador, focusing her activism on preventing cyberbullying. Seeing so many strong women gave me such a thrill for the future.

Top: Monica Lewinsky. Bottom: Hope Solo.

For all the inspiring women, there were certainly hard-working men as well. Tom Scott is the man who made it all happen, and it was such a joy to meet the founder of the Nantucket Project. Deepak Chopra was on hand to help us all harness our chi and align our chakras, representing a voice for alternative medicine. Gordon Gund startedFoundation Fighting Blindness, dedicated to helping those who are losing their site. Through his research he has been able to reverse the blindness of seven children worldwide, and one of them was interviewed live at the event! The eyes of the audience were as wet as the coastal weather.

Soon I’ll be leaving this gorgeous island for my tour down the Eastern Seaboard. Now is the perfect time to give me a call and schedule your appointment. I’ll be making stops in every state from Massachusetts to Florida!

I am looking forward to hearing from you. Give me a call at (917) 209 – 0516 or email bonnie@bonnieroseman.com to schedule your personalized appointment.

One Accessory, Five Looks

While you are still enjoying your late summer adventures, I want to share one of my very important travel wardrobe secrets with you…

My advice is to pick just one very special accessory, and choose multiple ways to utilize it, which will enable you to avoid overpacking.

To demonstrate this principal, I have chosen a one of a kind silk shantung wrap. It is made with black and copper taffeta with hand-painted touches and a large gingham print.

You need to start with your basic black separates: A tee top, slacks, a skirt or a simple dress.

It is essential to have a variety of jewelry pieces that can add a little pop, and don’t require a lot of room in your carry-on.

Rather than weighing your suitcase down with gemstones, opt for lighter wearable art pieces made with treasures from the sea.

Nee Guinea pyrene shells, enamel-dipped coral, and hand-carved Mother-of-Pearl.

As a final addition I’ve selected a beautiful belt made with hand-cast polished pewter, onyx and horn inlay and a custom made leather-netted strap. It’s adjustable to any size, so it fits any body type.

The versatility of this accessory allows me to transform your simple pieces into dynamic, unique, one of a kind looks that can take you through an entire week, never looking the same way twice.

Everyone has their wardrobe basics. It’s my job to transform your clothing options with touches of color and one of a kind accessories.

I am looking forward to hearing from you. Give me a call at (917) 209 – 0516 or email bonnie@bonnieroseman.com to schedule your personlized appointment.

Summer Sparks

Have you ever wanted to dance on a rooftop while watching the sunset over the sea?

I’ll never forget tapping my toes on the Whaling Museums beautiful rooftop observation deck while I watched the sun dip into the waters of the Nantucket coastline. The Nantucket Historical Association is hosting more fabulous summer events on their gorgeous roof, so if you missed this party, there are more to come!

On July 14th, the Nantucket Preservation Society hosted the Summer Lecture and Luncheon. Attendees dined and enjoyed a talk from authors Hutton Wilkinson and Flynn Kuhnert, as they detailed their new book set titled A Walk to Elsie’s, which chronicles one of the most famous interior designers of the 20th century.

It’s been so fabulous to attend the summertime community events of Nantucket and see all the fabulous women wearing B-L-T! It was like a mini fashion show at the Artist’s Association of Nantucket dinner party. Way to “B,” ladies!

If you attend as many events as I do, you need a wardrobe to keep pace! Now is the perfect time to schedule your wardrobe consultation, and make sure your clothes are working for you. Call (917) 209 – 0516 and we can schedule an appointment when it’s most convenient. Not on island? Not a problem – let’s Facetime and I’ll showcase the best of my collection while you enjoy the comforts of home.
