My wife and I are traveling to South Beach in Feb, 2003 and are looking for a nightclub in SoBe that has music we would enjoy (Top 40 and retro). Any suggestions?

Thanks, Paul

I would like to know if any woman wear one piece bathing suits on the beach. Whenever I see a show about South Beach the girls are always in 2 pieces. I have never seen anyone in a one piece like a 40 year old would wear.

GROW UP !!!

You see everything on the beach in South Beach. Topless, thongs (men and women), bikinis, two piece and one piece.

My husband and i just returned from SoBe..i am 45 and he is 46..we went to Crobar and Opium..no top 40 stuff in those places, but great dance music, and Opium is something to see...matter of fact unless you hang out on Ocean at some of the local hotel/bar/restaurants who play quieter music outdoors, you wont get that type of music in SoBe...but le deux fontaines on ocean has great live jazz, as does the van dyke cafe on lincoln rd... and yes people do wear one piece suits on the beach...maybe because it was "off season" and cool out but I wasnt intimidated at all by the dress (or lack there-of)or attitude of the people there...altho in the clubs at night people do tend to go all out and dress with as little as possible if they can get away with it..just go with an open mind, play it by ear, and have fun. Besides, you can always ask the concierge at your hotel where the best place to go is on any given day

Mangoes!!!! Fun restaurant/club

The nice thing about being 40 and in SoBe, is that you can dress sexy without causing eyes to roll! Plus, Latino men don't seem to mind a little extra meat on the female form. It's a wonderful thing.

Im 43 and I look better than alot of 20 year olds in a bikini!

Well, What's Up, good for you. But most of us aren't so blessed.

Why did "tooldforSobeach" tell me to GROW UP!! I asked a serious question. I was truly curious. I see where it has nothing to do with "growing up." I am certainly "grown up" all ready.

I thought that was bizarre, too.
Either she's a oldie, herself, and is jealous we like to live a little.
OR, she's a youngster who can't yet accept that people in their 40's actually do have a life beyong their offspring!

Are there any dinner clubs? Like in the old movies? I'm always on the hunt for live latin-dance orchestras where you can get a good meal and enjoy the scene.

well i am 42 and wear a bikini...and blessing has nothing to do with it! its called hitting the gym everyday...you should try it if you're unsatisfied w/yourself! ps--what exactly do 40 yr olds wear????

Just Thinking

Just because someone can't wear a bikini, does not mean they are dissatisfied with themselves. Why jump to that conclusion? And I ponder why the forty-year-olds who can, found it necessary to post their pride on this forum.

To explain again my question was simply that all the travel channel shows on South Beach, best beach, top ten beaches usually include South Beach. The beach looks wonderful. I said to my husband one night viewing the shows, "gee I don't see one woman in a one piece bathing suit," perhaps I would feel uncomfortable wearing a once piece. Maybe no one does and this is why we aren't seeing it, LOL. When this subject was approached about being 40'ish in SoBe I asked the question regarding the one piece. I am well into my 40's and I think I would feel uncomfortable wearing a one piece bathing suit if I were the only one on the beach doing so. Simply as that. I agree you can wear the 2 piece in your 40's if you strive to do so it is hard work. Nothing wrong with doing so, my credit to you who work out diligently. Not meant to be a discussion on who should or who shouldn't. I sincerely asked if anyone does wear a once piece as I have not seen this on the beach.
