Celebrating an FDNY hero and his daughters with a New York surf safari
In celebration of all the superdads in our lives, Alexa asked FDNY Lt. Steven Leible — who's served as one of New York's Bravest for 20 years — to pack up his boards and his two daughters, Charlotte and Bianca, and take us on a real-life surfing safari. The delightful family, based in Long Beach, NY, taught us how to catch some waves, all while modeling the frothiest fashions of surf season. It made for an epic road trip to the beach — and a totally tubular toast to fathers and daughters. 13 FROM LEFT (AND THROUGHOUT): ON CHARLOTTE: Mother The Biggie Concert sweatshirt, $188 at Shopbop; Suzie Kondi Shallis shorts, $175 at Shopbop; Alyssa swim shorts, $200 at Sheila; ON STEVE: Shirt, model's own; Biarritz boardshorts, $118 at Faherty; Brooks Brothers sunglasses, $115 at Amazon; Aquis Date watch in stainless steel and 18-k yellow gold, $4,700 at Oris; ON BIANCA: Free People Soleil beach jacket, $168 at Shopbop; English Factory shorts, $75 at Shopbop Janelle Bendycki for Alexa Magazine 13 FROM LEFT (AND THROUGHOUT): Made-to-order surfboard (right), $1,600 at Cynthia Rowley; Other surfboards, models' own; ON BIANCA: Sunset Surf wet suit, $345 at Cynthia Rowley; Scubaqua Lion's Mane watch, $150 at Swatch; ON CHARLOTTE: Ombre Floral wet suit, $345 at Cynthia Rowley; Scubaqua Egg Yolk watch, $150 at Swatch; ON STEVE: T-shirt and wet suit, model's own; Ma'Ukele sunglasses, $279 at Maui Jim Janelle Bendycki for Alexa Magazine Advertisement 13 Janelle Bendycki for Alexa Magazine 13 Janelle Bendycki for Alexa Magazine Advertisement 13 Janelle Bendycki for Alexa Magazine 13 Janelle Bendycki for Alexa Magazine 13 Janelle Bendycki for Alexa Magazine 13 Janelle Bendycki for Alexa Magazine Advertisement 13 Janelle Bendycki for Alexa Magazine 13 Janelle Bendycki for Alexa Magazine 13 Janelle Bendycki for Alexa Magazine 13 Janelle Bendycki for Alexa Magazine Advertisement RIDING HIGH: The first-ever, all-electric Escalade IQ (from $127,700 at Cadillac) is a modern masterpiece of luxury and innovation.
