Even #Miami is decking the halls and getting ready for the holidays! Have you put up your tree? Does it have a theme? I really like this one from the #brickellcitycenter here in downtown. It might be 80 degrees out, but it sure looks like #Christmas! . . . #happyholidays #tropicalchristmas #holidaydecor #hohoho #jinglebells #snowbirds #shoptilyoudrop #wrapitup
But wait! There’s more! As in more wonderfully affordable wine from @vinoscarinena. I’ve got three new recommendations that will fit neatly into your holiday plans.
