Bombay Sapphire Artisan Series

Check out the Bombay Sapphire Artisan Series at the Gallery Guichard in Bronzeville on Saturday, October 15th. Two artists will be selected to exhibit in Miami at Art Basel, the International Art Show. There will be a private cocktail reception from 6 – 9 PM including passed appetizers. Nothing makes me appreciate art more than gin and juice...and nudity.

Dewar's Scotch Tasting

Dewar’s Discovery will be in Chicago from 10/19/11 to 10/23/11 for a Private Tasting Event! If you haven’t been to a Dewar’s tasting event you should definitely check this out. You’ll have a chance to make your own blend of scotch, which will probably taste terrible. If the presentation is too boring for you I’m sure the tipsy cougars who will be seated at your table will provide plenty of entertainment.

Dewar's Discovery Private Tasting
Wednesday, October 19 - Sunday, October 23

Red Bull and Vodka

Premier Event Marketing (PEM) is throwing a party at Jbar featuring a FREE VODKA and RED BULL Cocktail Reception on Friday, October 14th! The cocktail reception only lasts from 10 - 11 PM so hopefully you'll have enough time to get trashed/pumped in time for DJ Stonerokk's epic performance. Apparently this DJ has some connection to Heidi Klum, George Clooney, and Drew Barrymore? Is that supposed to negate the douchiness of his moustache? Everyone who attends will also receive access to the exclusive afterparty at STAY Lounge!

Premier Red Bull Party
Friday, October 14th | 9:30 PM - 2:00 AM
Jbar Chicago | James Hotel

It's impossible to go wrong with free scotch, cigars, and hors d'ouevres...unless you hate America! Freedom isn't free, but the valet parking is so get on the list and get ready to party!

The Mystery of Vision

Ubu Fine Art presents The Mystery of Vision on Thursday, October 27th. RSVP to attend the cocktail reception and meet Yang Yang, the artist behind the glorious artwork displayed above. How do you interpret this masterpiece? I'm fairly certain it's a buffalo horse being ridden by a man whose legs resemble baked chicken wings. Additionally there's a crow on his arm that's causing a bad allergic reaction. The message is pretty clear here folks. It's all about global warming. And chicken.

Picture This!

Do you have a design dilemma? I certainly do. The stripper pole in my living room is definitely a nice touch, but I'm afraid the gold polish doesn't match the rest of my décor (i.e. my platinum jacuzzi couch). Luckily I'll have a chance to seek professional help at Picture This, a wonderfully informative event presented by Chicago Home + Garden and the American Society of Interior Designers.

Bring pictures of your latest design dilemma and receive free, in-person advice from an ASID designer. This event takes place on Tuesday, October 11th at The Chopping Block in The Merchandise Mart. Cocktails and little things to nibble on will also be served.

John Allan's Presents...

John Allan's Chicago is hosting a little soiree to welcome "customer clothier" Nicholas Joseph and "tree artist" Bruce Burton to the the club. Guests at this event can expect a trunk show, art signing, signature cocktails, appetizers, and mini grooming services.

Maybe it's just me, but this event appears to be lacking the manliness factor. They might want to consider adding a mixed martial arts cage fight between two bikini clad models covered in chili. Or how about an assault rifle demonstration presented by bikini-clad models covered in chili? A simple chili cook-off with bikini-clad models would also suffice, as long as they all end up covered in chili at some point.

Fit Girl Studio Grand Opening

Ladies, are you in search of a sugar daddy, but worried that your muffin top is only attracting bums who still live with their parents? Well first of all, you should be ashamed of yourself because those "bums" may have fallen on hard times due to circumstances that were NOT under their control (e.g. avaricious baby mamas or Stripclub Addiction Disorder) and second, you go to hell!

Anyway, the Fit Girl Studio Grand Opening is taking place on Thursday, October 6. Perhaps some attendees may be inspired to lose weight so they can finally snag a wealthy older gentleman who can buy them authentic human hair weaves and afford upscale eateries like Corner Bakery and Wow Bao.
