The summer months may be winding down, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have just as much fun. This weekend, indulge in some wine tasting, shake your hips with Shakira, and put the term “Sunday Funday” to good use with a pool party.

What: Friday Wine Tasting Series
Where: Mayfair Hotel & Spa, 3000 Florida Avenue, Coconut Grove
When: 7 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.
Cost: $15 per ticket

The Mayfair Hotel & Spa is a Coconut Grove gem. Its decor is aesthetically pleasing, the lighting sets a sultry atmosphere, and its rooftop amenities are ideal for a romantic staycation. This Friday night, the hotel is offering the next best thing for those of us who are economically-challenged: a wine tasting series with wine educator Barry Alberts. At only $15 per ticket, you can enjoy some time to indulge, if only for two and a half hours.

Because you'll most likely be rushing from work, choose a good day-to-night outfit that will be appropriate for The Mayfair's upscale-lodge interior. These cropped boyfriend chinos by Vince are great for a casual Friday work environment. Dress them up with sexy blouse like this smoke silk chiffon beaded blouse by Hannah Jo. Finish with a pair of understated heels like these low strappy sandals from Joan & David. Add a splash of color to the outfit with a plum-colored clutch. This Bottega Veneta mini-wallet does the job nicely.

Where: BankAtlantic Center, 1 Panther Parkway, Sunrise, FL 33323
When: 8 p.m.
Cost: $49.75 - $163.25

We won’t judge you based on how many times you’ve tried to master Shakira’s hip-shaking moves in front of your bedroom mirror. Unless you’re a shewolf, it’s nearly impossible, but you may want to keep practicing for this Saturday night, when the Colombian singer will be performing live at Sunrise’s BankAtlantic Center.

This Gold Sequined Mini from Alice + Olivia is flashy, so keep the top half of this outfit simple with the Bold White Tank from C&C California- tuck it in to show off the skirt's high waist. Buttery-soft suede Zia Slingback Platform Sandals by Diane Von Furstenberg are neutral and leg-lengthening, and a platform ensures you'll be stable and comfortable while you try to keep up with Shakira.

Accesorize with an armful of bangles, like this Adreena Bangle Set from Amrita Singh, and a coral Di Vintage Leather Cross-body bag from Hobo International that keeps your hands free.

What: Pool Party at the Shore Club 

Where: Shore Club, 1901 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach

When: 1 p.m.

If there’s one thing we know for shore, it’s that the Shore Club is the place to be on Sundays for their weekly pool party, Sundaze at Shore Club. With a plethora of beautiful people, music being spun by Jason Vernau, and drinks in each hand, the party always delivers.

Prints and floral are in this season. Try the Sunrise Floral Triangle Top from Victoria’s Secret and, instead of being too matchy-matchy, pair it with the Black Ruch Sporty Pant from TopShop.

Don’t forget your sunglasses -- a must for every Florida girl. These Ray-Ban Glitter Rounded Aviators are sporty chic. Throw on this gauzy cotton Kelly Tunic from Melissa Odabash to cover-up and complete the look.
