Atlanta - Social Diva

Bubbly And A Massage Post-Run? Yes, Please! Join ZOOMA Atlanta 11/6

peg — Wed, 18 Aug 2010 21:32:44 +0000

Your spandex have been your lucky charm more times than one, and that’s just at the gym. Just think about how lucky you’d be if they were sprinting for something more than that new treadmill record.

What if we said that something was your favorite winery resort, and that the bubbly came with a massage? That’s what we thought!

Forget the gym – time to join ZOOMA Atlanta for its half marathon and 5k races. Your entourage will await you at you know where: Chateau Élan. You’ll get your post-race party on to light breakfast fare, live music and shopping. Did we mention Barefoot Wine & Bubbly will be there as well? Georgia never looked so good.

So mark your iCal for a 7:30 am start time on Saturday, November 6. All registrants will get goodie bags and free tee’s, and the half marathoners will get jewelry. Just make sure you register before August 29 with the codes ATLDIVA1310 or ATLDIVA5K10. A dollar saved is a dollar… saved for shopping. $10 off half marathon, $5 off 5K.

Run, run, run just as fast as you can.

Find Diva Deals Tippr ATL, Diva

peg — Thu, 05 Aug 2010 14:40:41 +0000

It’s a Friday, and you happen to be lunching with your power posse at Bacchanalia. (Hey, it’s not your fault cocktails make the day go faster.) You know the chef – so you expect a comp’d dessert. But when the bill comes, it says your entire lunch is 50% off!

Before anyone can say TGIF, you pay and are out the door. What a steal. But wait… now your receipt says you were discounted 70%! Huh?

No, Diva, you’re not dreaming. This scenario is entirely possible – just meet Tippr.

Tippr is the newest member of the collective-buying community. Translation: they do everything better. Sure, they scout your city for the best eats and treats. And yea, they get you 50 to 90% off. But the clincher? The more people who buy their deals, the bigger and better the discounts get.

Who wouldn’t want to sign up? If you refer one of your bffs, Tippr will give her $5. If she spends it, Tippr gives you the same. Sounds like good logic to us.

And that’s just the Tippr of the iceberg.

GloATL a Cultural Art Form at the Woodruff Arts Center 7/23 & 7/24

peg — Thu, 15 Jul 2010 14:00:07 +0000

You consider yourself to be quite the social progressive. Isn’t part of a Diva’s very charm her push-the-envelope (though ever-so-tactful) edge?

For choreographer Lauri Stallings of gloATL, that Diva edge has proven itself to be captivating over and over. This month, The Woodruff Arts Center – the nation’s cultural beacon for all things art – will showcase the culmination of Lauri’s most recent dance-making performance, Roem, which explores the phenomena of globalization by way of multi-media design, dance and music… and all in a 360° interaction between artist and public. We guess you could stay Roem stays true to its meaning (“to meld”).

Art forms, cultural immersion, divas… Brace yourself, Atlanta. This lady is out for genuine social change!

Fascinated? We knew you would be, so come get your glo on this 7/23 and 7/24 @ 8pm. For you, Diva, there’s no cost. Located at 1280 Peachtree St. NE, 404/733-4200.

High Cinco for Cinco de Mayo

peg — Wed, 05 May 2010 14:00:05 +0000

Cinco de Mayo, America’s favorite non-American holiday is a perfect excuse for Divas to share a cerveza with fellow friends or a cute Señor. This year, Cinco de Mayo falls on a Wednesday and we can’t think of a better way to celebrate hump day than with margaritas and Mexican food.

Skip out of work a little early and salsa your way over to Tin Lizzy’s in Grant Park for 99x’s Cinco de Mayo party. Rock out with your Guac out all day long from 10 AM to 7 PM. 99x will have live music, games, prizes, and more. Plus, Tin Lizzy’s will be serving a tasty Mexican feast, the ideal way to fiesta on with 99x.

Celebrate and Block Party with your amigos in Virginia Highlands. Authentic Mexican food will be dished out from local favorite Pozole Nuevo Latino served along side a beer and margarita bar. Live music and a piñata contest make this block party muy bueno.

Get your drinco on with Spiral Entertainment at Loca Luna for Cinco de Spiral. Dance to live Latin music as you sip on outrageous drink specials all night long. Wear a sombrero and shake the night away with plenty of cute señors, Olé!

Uno, Dos, Tres, FIESTA Diva.

Better Date (Night) Than Never, Diva. Date Night Magazine

peg — Mon, 03 May 2010 15:05:40 +0000

Flanner O’Connor had it down pat. A good man IS hard to find. But what’s even harder is to find a good man on a good date. Especially when it’s the first one.

Where to go? What to wear? Of course he’ll want to pay, but should you offer to split? Take a deep breath, darling. Just open Atlanta’s hottest new online mag – Date Night Magazine – and you’ll diva-stress in no time. It’s the datest thing since sliced bread.

Some things are out of your control. Mr. Hotter Than Hot can become the devil incar-date in the span of a few hours, or the seemingly perfect bach opts for another girl. Just ask The Bachelor’s Corrie Adamson, who was interviewed by Date Night Magazine. But with the mag’s exclusive dining, beauty and entertainment discounts, the good news is some things are controllable… and cheap.

At the very worst, you’ll have an entertaining story to share on their online community. You read our coverage last month on Undateable: 311 Things Guys Do To Guarantee They Won’t Be Dating or Having Sex, now read Date Night Magazine’s list of undateables and their hilarious interview with authors Ellen Rakietan and Anne Coyle.

As date would have it.
