iLove: Exploring the City

Ok the pic of the Balenciaga shoe is totally random...but me likey!

Last night, MM and I went to "A View from the Top", the DC Foto Week Preview event at 425 Mass. Honestly, it was such a good view we called 06 to come and join us. To my surprise, she actually did which was awesome!

Anyway, we get there, offered blue martinis upon arrival and we explored the rooftop. 425 is a really great location for city living and comes with the price tag to prove it. (We later took a tour of the property and while it was "cute" that small arse kitchen and second bedroom were beyond impractical).

The view of the city was amazing...to the left was the Capitol and to the right was the Washington Monument or the Klan monument with the red eyes as Dr. Davy calls it .

The rooftop is complete with grills, reading nooks, lounge furniture, a single lane lap pool, and a full rooftop party pool. Seriously, it's really nice. But enough about that. Can we talk about how the band played Ledesi and Eryakh Badu all night, or how the MM thought the brotha on the keys was really handsome until she noticed that his face was a bit too long. Or how "Shawn" offered to let her come up and sing a tune with the band?

Can we talk about the girl with her toes pushed way to the front of her flower sandals which is apparently only acceptable if you are wearing stripper shoes ? Or the guy who took several hors d'oeuvres from the plate at a time, including making a ranch and empanada sammich- devoured that ish and belched EXTRA loud?

I think my favorite thing of the whole night (aside from the Red Velvet Cupcakes (clearly made for the event as they were nto properly iced with cream cheese) was the photo booth. Guests were invited to take silly pics which were then projected on the wall of the rooftop for everyone to see.

So many fun! What are you doing? Go out and live!

Sidenote: I am seriously considering trying out for the Baltimore Charm this weekend. I'm not really afraid of the uniform...I'm more afraid that my football skills aren't up to par- these chicks really play!
