Drag Queens and Wine in a Can

What a fun weekend!! I had such a blast with my pals. Here’s a recap in more pictures than you ever asked for!

Saturday

I knew Saturday night was going to be a fun one because I was wearing one of my favorite necklaces. It’s always a good night in this gem from Versona. We even found a front row parking spot at Avalon which is unheard of!

Anna found a fox in almost every store we visited.

We ate scrumdiddlyumptious BLT’s from Goldberg’s. I tried to stick to my diet a little bit and only ate half and replaced my fries with fruit. So yummy.

We drank peach bellini in a can and watched The Imitation Game in recliners at the movie theater.

I took a zillion photos of Avalon. If you live in Atlanta and haven’t been to Avalon, I recommend taking a trip immediately. They have every store you could ever ask for, plus it’s so pretty!


Sunday

Sunday I ventured to Lips in Atlanta with my pal Niki for their “Sisters in Sequins” brunch. I have never been to a drag queen show, but I’m always down to try anything. I did have to send a text this morning that read, “Can I wear faux leopard to a drag show or will they think I’m trying to upstage them?” 

I am going to remodel my apartment after their ballroom. Everything was purple, turquoise, green, and gold. Plus they had shoes on top of their bar and disco balls and chandeliers for lighting. It was basically my dream house.

I did not stick to my diet today…we had tator tots for an appetizer…

…and California Chicken Clubs for lunch. Not to mention we had 4 mimosas a piece. When at brunch…

The show had a gospel theme because it was Sunday brunch, but it was really just power ballads and sometimes they waited on us in choir robes.

Seriously, she looked just like Whoopi Goldberg.

Y’all, that is a man. I am not lying.


This is also a man, and he is prettier than I am. It was impossible to not be a little jealous.

What did you do this weekend? Who are you rooting for in the Super Bowl tonight? Personally, I’m rooting for Katy Perry and awesome commercials.
