Watch What Happens In Savannah: El-Rocko Lounge, Top Deck And More

Pink Chinese Mary Jane Slippers

Double Standard #cocktail at new #savannah barlounge El Rocko Lounge #campari

El-Rocko Lounge is the new hot bar in Savannah. I stopped by last Friday on its opening night.  It’s retro decor and delicious cocktails are worth a visit.  I had a cocktail with Campari and it was delicious. It is the type of place that I would expect to hear the entire Daptone Records catalog. El-Rocko will also host live music shows, so it is a nice addition to Whitaker Street.

Whiskey Cocktail at Top Deck

My new favorite place for people watching is the Top Deck Bar at the Cotton Sail Hotel.  The crowd is a mix of bachelor parties, southern belles, fancy tourists, and seersucker-wearing frat boys.

Fashion Bazaar at Savannah Bazaar

 

Jelinek Creative Spaces hosted Savannah Bazaar this past Saturday. It was fashion-themed with a fashion show. I took some photos.

Beads And Bubble Mailers: Show Me Your Beads

Beads and Bubble Mailers

Beads and Bubble Mailers

Everyone has ideas. Some of them are brilliant. Some of them have been done before. Some of them are dumb. Ideas are great, but the execution is what matters. Last week, I had an idea, and the reason I think it is a good one is because it can be executed easily and it is an opportunity for recycle stuff and do something good.

Loop It Up Savannah is one of the members of Jelinek Creative Spaces, a co-operative creative space for artists and entrepreneurs in Savannah. Molly Lieberman, a lady who greets everyone with a smile, is the founder of Loop It Up which creates opportunities for local kids to make art.

If you are like me, you probably have lots of beads from broken necklaces, bracelets or earring. That jewelry detritus can be donated to Loop It Up.

I am organizing a bead drive from now until April 1st. Details on how to donate are listed fully on the Beads and Bubbles LaunchRock page I created.

Recycle and Remix Your Jewelry at Epiphany Bead and Jewelry Studio

 

Pink Beaded Bracelet

I love costume jewelry! When it comes to statement necklaces, I am often wearing the exclamation. (!) However, I have lots of broken necklaces that need to be repaired. Luckily, I work in the same building as Epiphany Bead and Jewelry Studio.  The studio is located here in Savannah at Jelinek Creative Spaces (101 N. Fahm Street). Jessica, the owner, remade a big pink necklace that I bought in New York five years ago into a nice bracelet. Not only does Jessica design jewelry and repair jewelry, she also sells beads to other jewelry designers. You can shop for beads online at Epiphany.

Below is a photo of the original necklace which I wore at the first TECHmunch NYC in 2010.  TECHmunch is a food blogger conference that I have co-produced in New York and Atlanta. It’s me with Matt Robicelli of Robicelli’s.
