Enchanting Eye Make-up for a Date



You can never go wrong with smokey eye make-up. It's sultry and mysterious, but it's suitable for day wear or night-time. It instantly dresses up any outfit too, so if you want to go from scruffy to exquisite in a matter of minutes for your date, look no further than a smokey eye.



Everyone knows that a vintage look is always elegant and classy. It's simple, but at the same time dressy; although it might require a very steady hand to create an effective look!

Nothing could be quite as sophisticated as champagne and strawberries. Make a delicious and glamorous cocktail by adding crushed strawberries and a squeeze of lime juice to your favorite champagne.


The same deliciousness can be applied to a a raspberry and peach Bellini. Take a classic Bellini recipe and simply add raspberry pulp. This makes one extremely moreish cocktail perfect for summer nights with a date.


Or for those of you who prefer blackberries, a blackberry daiquiri is both sophisticated and tasty. Simply add rum, lime juice and sugar syrup to blackberry liquor or pulp.

The Parties You Shouldn't Miss This Weekend

Secret Warehouse Party

If you want to go wild this Friday night then Jimmy Edgar's secret warehouse party, with sets from Albatross, Charlie Chux and Frames could be for you. The location is only discoverable once you have purchased your ticket and is to be kept a secret to keep the sense of exclusivity.

The Spice Cellar

During the ordinary hours this venue seems like a cool cocktail bar, with dance music and ordinary people to be found in its dark sleek interiors. After 10pm this Sunday however it will transform into a techno, house and disco scene, far less reserved, that parties on until 10am.

Gallery Burlesque 4th Birthday

If the wild party scene isn't for you then head over to The Stand this Sunday for an incredible night of burlesque. With a venue built for live shows but still with a great bar and mezzanine seating area, you can enjoy the night in anyway you want; stood right at the front, socialising at the bar or sat with friends enjoying the atmosphere.

VIP Venues

There are a huge amount of cocktail bars in Sydney and you often find that no matter how good the barman is, the cocktails are the same everywhere and are more about attracting bright-young-things on a wild night out than they are trying to do a good cocktail justice. This said however there are still some high class, quality cocktail bars out there - if you know where to find them.

Hemmesphere
The table service only rule is perhaps one of the biggest reasons why the standards here are a cut above the rest. With well dressed, friendly waitresses to attend to your every need and a consistent level of superb cocktail's no matter what bartender you're served by it's no wonder this places is often full of the high society crowd. Keeping their cocktails sounding just as complex as they are means you don't get the 'cocktails for all with anything in them' feel here. The people in charge know their stuff but that doesn't stop at alcohol. The late dinner menu is fantastic, starting at 10.30pm til closing Wednesday to Saturday, you really don't need to be anywhere else. With a ski lodge feel, exposed beams, leather couches and golden floor lamps, it couldn't be further from the crammed modern spaces your average party goer today calls a cocktail bar if it tried.




The Ivy Pool Club
Despite it's occasional dip in the common dance party pool, the Ivy Club is often one of the most exclusive rooftop destinations in town. With a cover charge to deter those who really shouldn't be there, it's selection of private cabanas in which to drink expensive cocktails and snack on gourmet pizza, makes you feel like you belong in an episode of Gossip Girl or Entourage. It's a fantastic place to be surrounded by high fashion and good taste with an excellent authentic feeling setting that only doubles the great party atmosphere.
