Sunday Funday: Sunset Lounge x Rising Stars x Fashion Wonderland

While Sunday is a day of rest for many people, for others it's another chance to enjoy friends & have a little fun one last time before the week gets started. If you're looking to get out this Sunday, here are a few options for you:

First we have the 2nd Edition of Sunset Lounge at Café Soul (492 S. Main St) from 3p-8p (there will be complimentary drinks from 3p-5p so get there early). Hosted by BHall, JWhite, and G.L.O. Social Club, Sunset Lounge is a true networking event.

If you’re tired of yelling over music to answer simple questions or having to sift through “socialites” to get to the real movers and shakers of the city, this may be for you.

I spoke with BHall after the first set to find out what his motivation was behind this & he stated that he wanted to offer something that was more than just a club scene. The idea had been brewing for over a year & he finally felt like he was in the position where he could put his all into it.

Café Soul was familiar stomping ground for him (poetry nights and karaoke), so he wanted to familiarize people with the location while also getting more people to migrate downtown. His goal is to help people meet those that they may not regularly come into contact with. Sunset Lounge will be held ever 2nd and 4th Sunday of the month. The first edition was Sponsored by Style Junkie; if interested in being a sponsor, click here to contact Mr. Hall.

If you still need more style in your life, Stylus-A Fashion Wonderland will be held at Brinson’s Lounge (341 Madison Avenue).

Benefiting Youth With Senior Citizens, this show will highlight fashion categories from vintage up to falls new trends. You must be 18+ to attend and have to RSVP by Sunday morning to attend so click here for more information.

Cocktails are at 5p, with the fashion unveiling at 6p. Donations are accepted at the door for admission so don’t miss out on seeing some wonderful trends while helping a good cause!

Finally, we have Rising Star's Amped Up Indie Artist Concert at Minglewood Hall (1555 Madison Avenue).

Hosted by Ty Sanders & Whitney Griffen, Amped Up is a showcase highlighting many of Memphis' talented musical artists.

Many have or are scheduled to appear on 106 & Park (Lou Writer, Jessica Ray, and C Cren just to name a few), so now's your chance to catch  a few before they cross over to the big leagues. A few other favorites listed on the performance roster are Ify, YoYo Picasso, & Porcelan Chalet.

Doors open at 6p. 18+, dress code is casual (but no T-Shirts allowed). Tickets are $10 in advance, $15 at the door. For more information on tickets or to find out more about the artists that are performing, click here
