A Day in the Life: Cocktails with Belle

Glamazons, our great friend Demetria Lucas better known as Belle of the award-winning blog, A Belle in Brooklyn, hosts these glamazing events called “Cocktails with Belle” that literally are the toast of the town.

 

Loved Demetria’s striped dress and matching pumps! Adorbs.

Her latest soiree turned into one of those magical moments that remind you why you love living in the city! It had all the ingredients of a perfect summer night: a rooftop with a breathtaking view (below), delicious cocktails and fun times with old (and new) friends.

Not to mention anticipation for Demetria’s new book titled “A Belle In Brooklyn: The Go-To Girl For Advice On Living Your Best Single Life” (On sale June 14, 2011 and available for pre-order here) which you could literally feel in the air.

Held at Ink 48’s rooftop lounge, the girls-only fete brought out some of the top tastemakers in the city in their best-dressed to mingle and toast the first of many books from Demetria.

Sidenote: This made me especially happy because besides giving me tons of advice when we worked together at The Magazine, Demetria also gave The Glamazons one of our first big breaks by posting my article, Anna Wintour, Kelly Cutrone and Why Bitches Will Never Go Out of Style, on her already-popular blog. She’s like our “blogger big sister” over here at The Glamazons so we’re so proud of all her current (and imminent) success!

Last night was all about celebrating her and the evening was full of smiles, laughs, reunions and sisterhood. Among the many beautiful faces in the crowd, I spotted Egypt Sherrod of 107.5 WBLS, Model/Actress Liris Crosse, Christina Brown of Love Brown Sugar and Uptown Magazine, Geneva Thomas of Clutch Magazine/Coco & Creme, Charreah Jackson of Studio-Social, Jenisha Watts of People Magazine, Socialite Kai Taylor, Renae Bluitt of In Her Shoes Blog, Niema Jordan of ESSENCE Magazine, Jones Magazine Curvy Correspondent and Plus-Size Model Chasity Saunders, Beauty Maven Melissa Cornelius, our Pretty Girls Rock co-host Claire Sulmers of The Fashion Bomb and so many more.

And stay tuned for more coverage from Demetria Lucas aka Belle‘s whirlwind tour for her first-ever book, “A Belle In Brooklyn: The Go-To Girl For Advice On Living Your Best Single Life.”

Oh and not to be forgotten, outfit credits. I wore a leather jacket from H&M with my beloved Zac Posen for Target pink printed dress I blogged about here. Photographer extraordinaire Mackenten Petion snapped this shot of me which is obviously now my fave pic ever. Curly hair don’t care!

Fun times, right?

Kisses,

Glamazon Jessica
