Ok, not really. First we’re dressing, then we’re ghosting.
The new Dress Shop boutique above Elephant Room is finally throwing their kickoff cocktail party to show off fancy frocks from LA and NYC. It’s about time we got a new store in the heart of downtown that wasn’t on Second Street, where it all starts to look the same. The party starts Thursday at 6pm with a fashion show at 8pm and cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, desserts, gift bags (!!!), and music throughout. Here’s the link, though the site is still to come: www.dressshopaustin.com
Then, check out the new Ghost Room, which is the old Ginger Man dressed up (or is it down?) as a live music venue. Break the new place in with Caprice spinning old-school soul and funk and Redd Volkaert. Doors open at 4pm, music starts at 6pm. No cover. theghostroom.com
