Lacoste 80th Miami: Addict, Miami (Bal Harbour) #Lacoste80th featuring Romero Britto and Best Buddies International

I had the pleasure of being invited by Lacoste to help host the brand's 80th birthday bash in Miami, at Addict, in the Bal Harbour shopping mall.
I was thrilled to be a part of something like this; Lacoste is a brand that has demonstrated true longevity in the business, while maintaining the brand's integrity throughout the many years it's been around (eighty, to be exact).

I took the opportunity to wear my Lacoste black ankle boots (the style is the Rosemont Chelsea)...and great minds think alike, because fellow bloggers Ginger, Ria, Erika and Carmen were all sporting the same ones :)

Local Miami artist Romero Britto was on site to lend his name to this event, and help raise funds for Best Buddies International.  Several of these cool, hand painted and one of a kind Lacoste sneakers were available to bid on...and 100% of the proceeds went to the charity!

The event was packed!   So many people showed up to help support a good cause and help this iconic brand celebrate in style.
