Eva looked to be enjoying the warm Miami weather as she stepped out in Roman style sandals with a touch of gold accenting the elegant footwear.

With her brunette locks flowing in waves over her shoulders, the star hid her face behind a pair of dark sunglasses.

Jose was equally fashionable in a dapper blazer, white shirt, and purple trousers as he slicked his hair back, revealing his stubbly beard.
