Shopping–
For a leisurely shopping experience (more looking than buying), Worth Avenue is the place to be. This world-renowned shopping street offers upscale boutiques, art galleries, and delicious cafes. The tree-lined streets and Mediterranean-style buildings make for a picturesque walk, perfect for an afternoon outing. Some fav stores included Lilly Pulitzer, Kassatly’s for the sweetest pajamas. Other spots include Church Mouse (consignment shop, though I hear there are better ones in West Palm) and the shops at The Royal Poinciana Plaza, I spoke at an event at Marisa’s Collections, a great boutique.
Tip: Don’t forget to check out the stunning gardens and fountains while strolling the avenue

Palm Beach is home to some world-class dining options that cater to all tastes and preferences.I didn’t have enough time to eat at all of the places that were recommended. Some favs include: Swifty’s (sit by the pool and take it all in), the Buccan Sandwich Counter (local tip: order ahead), Bice, The Seafood Barb at The Breakers (food was ok but drinks were super fun with the fish swimming by) .Families will appreciate casual dining options with kid-friendly menus, including delicious seafood spots along the waterfront. Other recs from locals included Bice, Renato’s, BrickTop and Henry’s.

Lodging- Where to stay in Palm Beach
Palm Beach is home to a variety of luxurious and charming places to stay, perfect for women over 40 looking for a relaxing retreat or families seeking a comfortable vacation. I absolutely LOVED The Colony and will stay there again.
Colony Hotel Palm Beach is a charming, boutique-style hotel that combines historic elegance with modern conveniences. Its tropical atmosphere and vibrant, retro design make it a unique place to stay. The hotel features a lovely pool area, a beautiful outdoor terrace, and close proximity to Worth Avenue for shopping and dining. Additionally you can grab a bike and ride a block to the beach. Get ready for people watching, and lots of famous people sightings (Hey Kelsey Grammer and Isaac Mizrahi) . I could sit in the lobby people and watch for hours. Other places to stay in Palm Beach include Palm House Hotel, White Elephant, The Breakers and Four Seasons.
They call it a Pink Paradise, and I totally get it! I loved everything about Palm Beach. Wondering what to wear? Check out this post with all the details. Follow @thecollarfind on Instagram for all of the travel tips for women over 40 and empty nesters.
