High Society Living

Good morning beautiful people,
I have been working my little tail off for the last few weeks and of course it's not going to stop anytime soon. I am in need of a mini vacation but of course work has to be done. So for you chics that are able, take the time to travel this weekend or very soon. Traveling is an opportunity for you to experience other cultures, lifestyles, and of course street style. Yes even in the United States of America traveling to different cities will broaden your horizons. Turning around around and around BAM New Orleans ( ok I was turning at the map for some of you that didn't get it). New Orleans is by far one of my FAV cities to visit. I recently went this past October and really enjoyed myself. So let me be your travel agent & personal concierge.....For you chics that are in Memphis, PLEASE take the time to go by rail...Amtrak...it's such an amazing experience.

Transportation:
The Historic 59 from Memphis to New Orleans has such great history behind it. Back in the day, 1920s, many African Americans rode the train from New Orleans up to Chicago and they stopped in Memphis. Both Memphis and New Orleans have very rich history behind the Migration ask the conductor to tell you the story.

Visit www.amtrak.com for booking and details...They run specials all the time and the fare is STUPID cheap...only $88 round trip can't beat it. Have breakfast in the dining car, bring your laptop or DVD player and just relax.

Hotel:
I love staying in the JW Marriott on Canal St. They have exceptional service, very good concierge, and SUPER nice rooms.

Food & Drinks:
It's the BIG EASY baby so just walk around and have a great time. Be sure to go to Cafe Du Monde and have a beignet & cafe au lait. Breakfast at Mother's....OMG it was so good. It's a local's spot (best places to eat in cities) Drink on Bourbon 2 for 2 Hurricane's are the lick.

Tourism:
Please take the opportunity to go on a tour of the city. It's very informative especially after Katrina. Then learn about the history of New Orleans ( I won't tell you you will appreciate a lot more. Go on the City Tour ask the concierge at your hotel to book it for you. Great tour guide.
