Alix Earle's favorite spots in Miami
1. Vanity corner
Earle revealed that her vanity is her favorite place where she gets ready and makes her videos. She said, "I have my little makeup vanity in the corner. We threw a bunch of clothes and stuff on the bed because I feel like I always talk about being a mess in my room."
2. University of Miami
Earle graduated from the University of Miami in May 2023 majoring in marketing. She says, "The campus definitely shaped me into the person I am today. This is where I met all my best friends. I just don’t think I’d be the same person I am if I didn’t go here. A lot of my content is about the University of Miami, whether it’s going to school, a day in my life, going out, or different parties. I’m so sad to be leaving".
3. Pura Vida
Alix expressed her love for Pura Vida, which was the greatest place to eat on campus. She added, "I got all of my meals from there because they let you put it on your card swipes for school, so I abused that. Then they closed on campus but started opening up everywhere. They were literally popping up like McDonald’s and it’s everyone’s favorite spot. I’ll go there either for food or a smoothie. It’s so good.”
4. Wawa
During her freshman year, the University of Miami started visiting a chain of convenience stores in South Florida. She expressed in her interview, "None of them knew what Wawa was. They were like, ‘That sounds disgusting.’ I was like, ‘Just trust me, we have to go. I can’t even explain it.’ So after a night out, we all Uber’ed there and I showed them how to use the touchscreen and everyone got their own food. Ever since then, we’ve all been obsessed with Wawa.”
5. More Wawa
Wawa sells snacks and drinks, but it also features touchscreen ordering capabilities that let you create custom orders for anything. Paninis, soups, mac and cheese, and subs are all made there. She added, "My three go-to meals are ham, egg, and cheese breakfast quesadillas, mac and cheese, and chicken noodle soup. It's excellent."
6. Key Biscayne
This beach, which is a 15-minute drive from her campus is Earle's favorite. Alix says, "It’s more subtle and less touristy than other beaches in South Beach. My best memories are of going with my friends. We’ll pick up pizzas or sushi, and we’ll spread out a bunch of blankets and eat on the beach together. I feel like even when I move out of Coral Gables, I’ll probably still go to Key Biscayne."
