    Last night marked a lot of lasts for us. The last party of Fashion Week. The last specialty Kanon cocktail we'll be creating for the week's festivities. The last time we'll be seeing Jared Leto until next September...and all in honor of the Last Magazine's latest issue. 

    But being the spontaneous folks that we are, there were also a lot of firsts involved. Like our first time drinking green pepper flavored cocktails, and our first time trying out awesome sunnies brand Prism (every dinner guest was gifted their own sweet pair). And of course, there were some constants handed down from last year's amazing party with the magazine–the top-notch crowd for one. The list of notables in attendance is way too overwhelming to go through here, but just to give you a taste, we'll mention that Terry Richardson, Richard Chai, Alexandra Richards, Brad Goreski, Hanne Gaby Odiele, Jenne Lombardo, Johan Lindeberg, Lindsay Wixson, Phillip Lim and Chelsea Leyland were all in attendance. And that isn't even a fraction of the cool kids who showed up ready to dance the night away to beats from Kim Foxman of Hercules and Love Affair. It was a pretty sweet party, we have to say. Check out all the photos from the night above and see for yourself.

    One of the most fun parts of the post-Basel wind-down has been getting everyone's different perspectives on the jam packed week of partying, art viewing and the like. So with no further delay, we bring you the latest FOK take from Miami based blogger Amanda Del Duca, who acted as quite the tour guide/wingwoman this past week.

    Here's what Amanda had to say about Basel:

    I’ve lived in Miami for almost three years and I can firmly say the city never looks better than it does the first week of December. The weather is warm and cool at the same time, making for great fashion and the rare ability to layer in South Florida. Trendy artsy types fly in from New York, Scandinavia, London and Paris to all join the marathon of parties and installations that is Art Basel Miami Beach.

    This year, David and I tagged along with Kanon Organic Vodka and joined in their Basel takeover with a sick lineup of events. The fun started on Tuesday and raged 'til Sunday; here are my highlights.

    On Wednesday I met up with Kanon creative director, Harry Beee, on the rooftop of The Webster Miami. I unfortunately missed the Case Scenario + Refinery 29 + Pantone luncheon a few hours beforehand due to a scheduling mishap, but heard the event was very chic. Kind of bummed I missed Giovanna Bataglia - but alas it was only the first day.

    We've spent the past couple days in the 305 kicking it at Art Basel with some of our favorite FOKs, and let us tell you: this crowd seriously puts the "art" in "party." Yesterday we hosted a trifecta of top-notch events, starting with a luncheon at The Webster celebrating the launch of Case Scenario and Pantone's new iPhone4 accessory line along with our friends from Refinery29. After a quick disco nap, we returned to the South Beach bar cum boutique for the worldwide launch of BLK DNM's 11 Fragrance, which featured a crew of international cool kids including Andre Saraiva, Darell Hartman, Waris Ahluwaria, Aaron Young, and the man of the hour, Mr. Johan Lindeberg. And when you're partying in the city where the heat is on, there's nothing like a nice Kanon cocktail to cool you down. We spent the early evening sipping on refreshing spiked cucumber lemonade as well as a special concoction we like to call the BLK Bomber – a mix of Kanon, Cointreau, pomegranate, OJ and lemon juice. Check out all the photos from BLK DNM's soiree, one of our favorite yet – and the week's barely just begun! And don't forget to check back later for more coverage of our Miami Basel takeover.

    So far we’ve found a home in Los Angeles and New York, but really, our first home will always be Sweden. What can we say? Beautiful people, our distillery, and great times can be found here – so naturally we like to visit often. Last week we attended the opening of the BLK DNM store, the latest and highly-anticipated line from Johan Lindeberg. We had to check out his new Stockholm digs, especially since we love his New York location so much. With a packed store and a selection of Kanon cocktails to choose from, we had the fashionable crowd imbibing in good times and great buys. Better yet? After this party, there was an AFTER-PARTY at Miss Voon, a new restaurant located at Sturegatan 22. See, when you hang with us, the good times just don’t stop. Here’s a look at the night in photos and a recipe for one of the delicious cocktails we served. Enjoy!

    Sweet Kanon Martini

    2 parts Kanon Organic Vodka

    1 part Martini Rosso

    2 dashes of orange bitters

    Mix well.
