The Cicada Club

{Dress: ASOS; Earrings: Charlotte Russe}

As promised, here are some snapshots from my birthday party at the Cicada Club (inside the Oviatt building) in Downtown Los Angeles. It was a spectacular night, with wonderful friends, fun music, and great dancing. I couldn't have asked for a better way to celebrate the big 2-2! I decided to do dinner before getting to the Cicada, since their menu has a fixed price of $60 per person. However, I'd love to go back, dress to the nines, and splurge on dinner for two (the food looked amazing!). The entrance fee was $10 for this particular show and the valet parking is $7 (worth it, since half my guests were in heels). Guests coming only to see the show are escorted to the mezzanine lounge upstairs, which boasts a smaller dance floor and a full bar. The mezzanine lounge fills up within the hour before the show and chairs are taken on a first-come basis. From the balcony we watched the show and then ventured downstairs to join the dancing ourselves. (Ronnie is a natural dancer. He twirled me around the dance floor as I attempted to look like I had some rhythm . . . .) Here are some highlights of the night!
