Tomorrow in the ATL a new fancypants multi-use complex is having its grand opening. I don’t know if this is happening all over the country but here multi-use complexes are the next big thing. From Buckhead, to a stones throw from my ghetto, high-end multi-use conglomerates have been booming for the past decade. The concept is live, work and socialize all in the same little neighborhood. Most of them have high-end townhouses or apartments, a Whole Foods, and a variety of upscale restaurants and taverns in addition to some sort of shopping area, movie theater and other attractions. Atlantic Station was one of the most popular ones to date in the Atlanta area.
Tomorrow is the officially opening of the grand kahuna of such developments, Buckhead Atlanta. While the official opening is tomorrow, it seems they are allowing the felons by Bravo adjacent in tonight for an invitation only black tie event to celebrate the housewives who have tons of money to hide/launder spend at Hermes. The invitations went out to their best Atlanta customers and clearly to the folks related to people they have a promotional deal with like, Bravo. Hermes and Fado Irish Pub have been there for a couple of years now, right in the middle of all of the construction. Tonight Hermes cut the ribbon on their new and improved location. The whole shebang will take many more months to roll out but RHOA and Love and Hip Hop Atlanta have done so much for Christian Louboutin’s reputation he has decided to bless us with a local freestanding store. I could barely type that with a straight face, but it is true that you will soon have a freestanding Loub store here in Atlanta. Other high-end stores include Jimmy Choo, Alice+Olivia, and Akris. Plus a bunch of overpriced restaurants I’ve never heard of because we need more of those. Not.
So why do you care? Will tonight’s Hermes affair was invitation only to their best rich people guests. And because I have friends in high places I was just informed that Phaedra is there and the housewives are filming. My friend just passed Phaedra who is snapping selfies with everyone in her finest faux southern belle on the plantation fashion. I have a good idea I will know everyone who is there by tomorrow. But camera’s are rolling. Attendees did not sign waivers and most of the filming is of some sort of runway action that is happening… stay tuned.
I so hope Nene showed up with her defaced “Hermes” bag and was turned away at the door, or better yet let in for people to mock her. Maybe Kim K will come and bring hers? At least if Lisa Hochstein shows up, hers will be real.
Stay tuned boys are girls. Or you can just read about it in a day or two on those thieving websites who don’t credit. They have so much anal itch and crotch rot in their future. 🙂
And I thought nothing interesting would happen today.
Damn TT, I just burned my tongue on that scalding tea! I am certain Lanethia will not be in attendance as she will not want to be “outed” for her “Hermes” ahem -indescretion. Perhaps Lisa H. will arrive with her gal pal, Lisa of Prive Porter fame ( the go to gal for procuring luxury items for those who do not fit the brand or never get the call on wait listed items.)
Oh boy. It’s quite sad that there are so many people with no depth , culture, home training fill in the blank who have no idea how foolish they look.
Sigh, sad but very entertaining for me . Please tell your sources to include pics .
My one of my sources was appalled Phaedra was there and left. lol. I am working another one. 🙂

Haha! That’s funny!
But, not goof for us!!
Ummm….*good*
“Phaedra who is snapping selfies with everyone in her finest faux southern belle on the plantation fashion.”,BAAAAAHAAAAHAAAAA…my side hurts from laughing because this line reminds me of Carol Burnett dressed in some drapes as Scarlet O’Hara. Scarlet was truly consummate southern belle not our Ms. Phaedra, Lady Jailbird, Parks. Back to insomniac theater
I’m not sure if I can stress enough that these are actual, Atlanta socialites at this function, not paid Bravo stand ins. The cameras are very limited to “media shots only.” We will NOT get to see the faces of real Atlantans recoiling in horror, but this is what I am a hearing. And it’s enough to make me smile.

I bet that the fine lady elites of Atlanta had expressions that clearly telegraphed “Who stepped in here with poo-poo on her shoes? Tell us, who’s stinking up the damn room?!” as Phaedra made her grand entrance, took ‘selfies’ with adoring fans (read: “climbers”) and put on her very best Southern Belle act (with poo-poo on her shoes).
OMG, what I would pay to see the socialites faces recoiling in horror when Phaedra walked in doing her best refined southern belle impression. LOL. I hope Nene wore her ghetto graffiti handbag.
By the way, Kanye’s Christmas handbag reminds me of a nightmare I had when I was sick from food poisoning. Nothing says Merry Christmas Darling like a bag with painted demons leering at a naked woman!
Josie, looking at that bag will give you food poisoning.
Good one fivecats! I’ve yet to see Kim wearing it. Maybe she can wear it to Church on Christmas morning so she can have the priest exorcise the bag!
Me too!! I always remember Carol’s skit when something like TT’s writing about someone with faux southern belle ‘stuff’…
“Tomorrow in the ATL a new fancypants multi-use complex is having its grand opening. I don’t know if this is happening all over the country but here multi-use complexes are the next big thing.” Well in Houston they are. There are at least 20 in development, announced, etc. And it’s about time Buckhead Atlanta, with all of its financial issues over the past years, finally opened. Sorry. I’m turning your post into a business forum. Morning Tamara.
It is going on here in Nashville as well. Back in the 80’s or so my Mom went to Hong Kong and came back with stories about this building trend there. Of course it was on a larger scale. I think the shopping floors alone were 30 or so. Of course all the high end markets were represented from all over the world.
That Kanye bag makes me think that in that world, people are so far removed from normalcy that they’ve convinced themselves that something like that is desired art. It’s a sick, self-imploding world they live in. That bag depicts something truly demonic and scary. I’d burn it!
@Katimer, thank you for issuing words to my thoughts. The ‘art’ on Kim K’s purse does seem to have a demonic vibe going on as evil creatures encroach upon or possibly serve the reclining maiden figure.
Judging from his gifts, his manner of dressing, and his styling of Kim, Kanye has proven that the only taste he has is in his mouth.
@Tasos It really could represent the world in which they live. The evil seduction and eventual offering and relinquishing of their morality and individuality. Actually, for Kim K, that’s not much of a challenge. She’s only too easy a target for a ‘living’ incubus. Whoever the artist is, they’re either possessed or severely depraved.
Buckhead Atlanta is such a dumb name. No bueno. It’s Buckhead Village.
TT, any tea on Todd Tucker’s production Hollywood Divas? Saw a commercial for it last night and had to rewind to make sure I was certain I saw Lisa Wu as a cast member.
Currently watching the Whoopie & Rosie show aka The View. I feel so embarrassed for Rosie Perez and whoever that other lady is. They seem terrified of W & R.
We wondering “how is Lisa Wu deemed a ‘Hollywood Diva?'” Isn’t it produced in the vein of say a “Hollywood Ex?” Meaning the cast were formerly married to “hollywood luminaries.” Lisa Wu was a credited hollywood actress before? What a mis-cast. She & Kandi MUST be REAL COOL.. for Kandi to “influence” Todd to cast Lisa. That was a ‘friendly’ hook-up, cause nothing else makes sense. She could have returned to #RHOA for all of that; she was boring there, don’t they fear she’d be boring on this new show too? We’ll see…
I agree, I always kind of liked Lisa, but she really didn’t bring anything to the show.

Judging from the title I was hoping that it meant Phaedra was leaving RHOA, wishful thinking on my part.
Who sent the invite? Is Bravo paying people off to get the invite? If I was in the real elite class in ATL I would be SWOLL if I walked in and accidentally bumped into any of those no class wannabes! Don’t blame your source that left. Hopefully she had a sip of Cristal before she gagged
The majority of the invitees were big ticket customers. As often as Hermes is mentioned on Bravo, I’m sure they were able to get promotional tickets.

please stop using the R word. It is not kind.
Of course it is not kind. That’s sort of the point of using it.
Is the “R” word “reality” star?
Phaedra is so delusional it might take a while before she realizes that she’s Atlanta’s numero uno pariah. I thought people would be throwing rocks at her or something by now.
Just wondering, if there was a new reality show ….. The Real Inmates All Stars …. what would be the cast? Joe and Teresa of course, Apollo, What’s her face (the chick from Mob Wives who just got house arrest), Jim Marchese (no wait – he got away with it), Amber and Janelle from Teen Mom, let’s see Joe and Melissa haven’t been busted yet….So who else?

“I don’t know if this is happening all over the country but here multi-use complexes are the next big thing.”
They’re becoming a dime a dozen here in Baton Rouge (BR is Atlanta-in-training. I’ve lived in both). We even have an ‘Atlantic Station’ called Perkins Rowe.
