AFTERNOON SHOWERS DIDN'T stop a gorgeous gaggle of yo-pros and creatives from filling downtown’s Z on 23 rooftop lounge to meet Aesha Scott, the standout star of Bravo’s Below Deck reality show.


The dress code was “Nantucket chic with a Texas flair,” and guests sipped sparkling rosé while donning sundresses and linen shirts paired with cowboy hats and boots. As the sun set, DJ Mitch Waring turned on his bubble machine, and the party roared on into the evening. Scott greeted every guest and posed for photos in one of Houston’s more instagrammable spots.

Z on 23 is Houston’s highest open-air rooftop bar, perched atop Le Méridien hotel. Cocktails and bites are on offer daily. "Z on 23 isn't just a rooftop bar,” says Le Méridien Marketing Director Jack Vielhauer. “It's a dynamic meeting spot where creatives, visionaries and innovators come together to inspire and collaborate.

“I'm working to re-envision this rooftop,” he adds, “transforming it into the ultimate hub for creative energy and connection under the stars.”

‘Embrace Changes,’ Says Valobra, Whose Namesake Jewelry Store Has Become a Houston Institution
How did you get to where you are today? I had little choice in the matter; I grew up being trained to become the fourth-generation jewelry designer behind my great grandfather, grandfather, and father. It was my duty to carry on the family business and continue the hard work and success they built from nothing, beginning in Torino, Italy in 1905. I was surrounded by jewelry and its craftmanship as a young child and was taught the business from a very young age.
