Stars are bright. Need shades.

Friday, March 28 – 3 p.m.

Headed over to the Shelborne Hotel to check out the Pacha Ibiza event, but it was super late in getting started, so we headed over to the A|X Music Lounge at the Raliegh Hotel. (For those wondering, A|X stands for Armani Exchange).

The penthouse was set up as a “recharge and relax” area for artists with a DJ booth, Belvedere vodka open bar, and an A|X sunglasses table for the artists who visited to snatch up a pair of shades. And were there artists – Tommy Lee and DJ Aero, Danny Tenaglia, DJ Skribble, Junior Sanchez, BT and Blake Lewis (yes, the one who had trouble getting in to some events), rising star Christian George (he was everywhere this week) and even the fashion designers Heatherette, who were in town for Funkshion: Fashion Week Miami Beach.

Emily Tan of Sirius radio conducted live interviews, and outside on the terrace there were more booths – Café Bustello (seems like the nocturnal talent needed some caffeine boosts) and Equinox massage chairs (each with a masusse), among others.

From the terrace we could also peek at the Shelborne pool party, and by the time we left, it was just starting to show signs of life.
