Ocean Drive magazine hosted a chic little holiday affair at tony Philippe Chow Miami, which has just relocated to the southern end of Ocean Drive. In a city of great parties, the glossy magazine has thrown some of Miami's most memorable over the years, including an anniversary bash at Fisher Island that was as wild as it was dense with models and celebs, Jack Nicholson among them.
