It’s Thursday, do you know where your parties are?

I’ve heard good things about the Jeff Lofton Quartet and a Brunette teammate planned this event, so there’s nothing stopping me! $10 donation at the door will get you a raffle ticket and drink specials! The Belmont, 7-10pm Relaxing Mom’s Night Out more your style? UpSpring Baby is celebrating the first ever National Moms Nite…

A Thursday of Free Jewelry Events

Yeah, a smidge random that there are TWO jewelry events this Thursday, but hey, we can roll with it. I won’t be at either, as I’ll be running the Nike Human Race training run I’ve come to love so dearly. But for those not pounding the pavement: Design Your Own Necklace at Madewell Visit the…

Athenian Grill (Re)Opens Downtown

More food torture for me: Apparently everyone loved the old Athenian Grill (closed for about 2 years now?) and is super-excited about the new one opening up at 6th and Congress, across from Ruth’s Chris. This Tuesday was its first day back in business, and the folks over at chowhound are already all over it,…

Moonshine

Since all I want to do is eat some solid food (Day 9 of the Cleanse), I’m going to go ahead and torture myself and talk about Moonshine. The Third-and-Red-River hotspot has the best of many worlds–business/tourist traffic with the Convention Center and downtown and local traffic for the downtown reason and because it’s just…

Stylin’ Thursdays: Grand Opening

Another Thursday, another happy hour-boutique-shopping affair. A new jewelry and accessory store is coming to the chic Second Street shopping district, and Austin Monthly hosts its grand opening. Here are the details: Beyond Tradition and Austin Monthly invite you to a grand opening! Toast to our arrival in the fashionable 2nd Street District with complimentary…

Too many options Thursday!

So many events, so little time. Thursdays are hot in the ATX! (literally and figuratively, natch) Top Billing: Sago Modern Mexican opening! 6:00-7:30pm … Sponsored by Austin Monthly and featuring free apps and martinis, the launch of this new restaurant in the Triangle should be an awesome event. Others: Austin Monthly is also hosting a…

Networking happy hours

As I have experienced the business world–and do take into account that my business is the media–I have come to the conclusion that it is almost entirely about who you know. That said, if you know someone but the quality of your work is shoddy, it won’t help you at all. But frankly, if you…

Thursday: Fashion Fashion Fashion

As many Thursdays go in Austin, there plenty of happy hour events to stop by for free food and drinks. It’s easy to eat/drink freely here! Here are my top two happy hour events … Both feature free food; one features free drinks; both are see-and-be-seen affairs. Fashion Lounge at Pangaea: if you ever wanted…
