What’s on your holiday shopping list? I’m guessing it’s not a $3.5 million Yayoi Kusama painting or a $4.75 million David Hammons piece. But that’s what the rich were buying at Art Basel, the annual prestigious art fair that wrapped in early December in Miami Beach.
When I lived in Miami for a few years I couldn’t help but fall victim to the city’s flashy allure. Every day felt like brushing shoulders with model-like people straight out of a Hollywood movie (or reality show). So I saved for months, survived on Trader Joe’s $3 frozen meals and finally decided to splurge $3,000 on my first designer handbag. When in Rome, right?
