Recap: Pre-Memorial Day Party at Timothy Dean's

Fabulously submitted by Ashlee
Bmore Fab! Correspondent

It seemed like half of Baltimore was partying inside Timothy Dean's (1717 Eastern Ave) last Sunday...omg it was so crowded but I must say that everyone looked good (good job Baltimore on stepping it up!!). 

First things first, let me give a shout out to Timothy Dean's and/or Events4GoodPeople for the complimentary valet (although the valet kindly hinted that they accepted tips). Girls always appreciate this (especially when it's free) because it can be hard walking to and from the car in our heels! 

TD's has one main bar so it took forever and a day to get a drink. I headed to the smaller bar upstairs only to find that they didn't have everything to mix drinks. The bartenders up there also moved a little too slow for my liking and weren't familiar with some of the more popular drinks. 

On the upside, 'The Hotboy' DJ Quicksilva was pretty good but most people were just standing around posing and not really partying. In true Bmore Fab! fashion, I give this party 4 out of 5 mics. With so few quality parties in Baltimore, I would  definitely go here again because of the good-looking crowd but I hope next time that more come to really party.  

Stay fab (but not too fab to dance)!

Recap: Carribean Wine Festival at Linganore Wines

Fabulously submitted by Ashlee

BmoreFab! Correspondent

I LOVE a good glass of wine (or any good beverage for that matter) so my very good friend, Marissa and I headed to the Carribean Wine Festival to see what it had to offer. First, let me say have good directions because we drove all over Frederick county before we found it! But once we finally got there, we saw tons of people sprawled out on blankets, hanging out with families, friends and loved ones, and having a great time.

For only $15 you get a cute wine glass, free tours of the winery, food, live music and all the wine you can drink! Although there were tons of wine lovers there, our visit was very intimate, which proved to be a definite plus. 

They had live reggae bands that had everyone dancing and enjoying the music. You do have to be 21 to drink (sorry kiddies) but people of any age can attend (and if you're under 18, it's free). 

Get there early for first dibs on wine and to get a good picnic spot. Check out their other festival dates here. Bottoms up!

5.28 | Free Night in an Atlantic City Hotel

Do you feel like taking a mini trip to AC for a day of fun? Well...this may be possible and it could all be for free (yes, I said free). This Wednesday (5.28.08), you and 959 of your Baltimore neighbors can win a free night's stay at Harrah's Resorts...this is the new Waterfront Tower hotel in Atlantic City.

And guess what? The only "catch" is that you have to catch one of the 960 room keys (yes I mean literally catch them in your hands...) being given away on the northeast corner of Pratt & Light Streets from 5-7pm on the the 28th. So you get it? 960 keys are being given away because there are 960 rooms in the hotel. The keys are good for only one night...Thursday (6.19.08) which is being designated as "Harrah Loves Baltimore" night. This means that Baltimore could potentially take over the entire hotel....yikes! (idk if AC is ready...)

I'm guessing this is some publicity stunt but who cares...its a free night and its legit, so don't ask any questions. Just make sure that on May 28th, you are at the corner of Pratt & Light between 5-7pm. Don't miss this opportunity to relax out in a brand new 44-story luxury hotel with a heated pool enclosed in a 90-foot glass dome.
Apparently Harrah did this in NYC, Philly, and DC already so its only proper that its hitting up Charm City next!


p.s.- Did I mention that the people handing out the keys will be dressed in body paint with the Harrah's logo? (hmmm interesting)

Chaos Boutique presents...WARDROBE:The Chao-tic Definition of Fashion 1st Year Anniversary Celebration & Trunk Show this Saturday (5.24.08) @ Hiram Grand Ballroom (1207 Eutaw St.).
The trunk show (lol) is from 9-11pm with the after party continuing until 2am. They are calling it donations, but this seems like quite a generous offer, so I'mma call it the tickets. Advanced purchases are $25 and $30 at the door ( not sure if that is the car door or door to the ballroom lol j/k)

Party starts at 10pm with ladies free before 11. You should already know that the attire is "upscale"...males must wear a collared shirt (this is their rule, not mine...but I agree 110%). Music by our fav DJ KI & DJ Donjuan...so come out and start the long weekend on a good note!

Happy 36th Birthday to Biggie Smalls

For my readers who love hip hop, today is definitely a day of celebration. If Biggie Smalls was alive, today would have marked his 36th birthday. And for those who know MissBmoreFab!, you know Biggie is one of the main reasons I fell in love with hip hop...so today, we continue to honor the legacy of "one of the best that ever did it."
RIP B.I.G. (May 21, 1972-March 9, 1997).

Jada Pinkett Smith's The Human Contract

Baltimore's own homegirl has come a long way from Baltimore School for the Arts. Jada Pinkett Smith has her directorial debut with the movie "The Human Contract"...watch the trailer here. 

The movie is about, "Julian Wright, a charming and mega-successful businessman who hides a secret from the rest of the world which tears his soul apart every day. With his personal life in shambles, Julian will find himself willing to travel down the rabbit hole, as it were, when he meets Michael Reed, a gorgeous stranger who entices Julian to forget his rigid corporate world and try a more bohemian lifestyle, a decision that will not only affect his own life but those of his boss and co-workers, as well as inspire his half-sister Rita to re-examine her life with her abusive husband."

The Spring Carnival at Security Square

Have y'all seen the carnival in the parking lot of Security Square Mall (6901 Security Boulevard)? It's so random that you have to check out. It's here until May 25.

After having a complete Bmore evening (we had crabs at Windsor Inn) we were just about to call it a night we saw the lights of the ferris wheel and the Tilt-a-Whirl.

Go over to Security Square Mall...either be a big kid again like we did or take the little ones. It's an hour or two of fab fun! :)
