Press REC and film me. Check it. Like JET magazine. This is my mack daddie vibe I am giving you. In all its splendor. What you think about a boy like me: I am my #1 priority; no falling inlove no commentiment from me. Friday night we won. Phifer; the muse of much top-notch entertainment, perfectly packaged into chic lifestylin and green living. This is the Dynasty AUC era–young with wealthy educations. SpelHouse has arrived at last, and we give off a gilded glare. In the words of Uncle Jay “Remind yourself. Nobody built like you, you design yourself.” –So this shouldn’t come as shocking news: Phifer got ridiculously maximal, blowing past all the rules of being Phifer. This is the return of luxury furs and penthouse homes. As we partied dressed like our true inner feelings. Atlanta was such a casual city, until we introduced elegance to sexy. No-no, Phifer is not your lover–I’m not your friend; I am something every taste maker can comprehend; I–will–pose–for–you. We can pose until the crack of dawn; you’ll read our tweets and get into our Instagrams–a life worth living. And I live.

//Vol. 4 Life & Times of M. Phifer

You a bad girl and your friends bad too, oh

1. En route to Lo’s
2. The W Hotel Midtown

You’re my James Dean
You make me feel like I’m seventeen
You drive too fast, you party too much
But that don’t mean a thing
‘cause i’m addicted to the rush

Thanks to Jarrod Levine and the entire W staff. Thank you.

We need more, don’t we? Oh. This is- This might be- what do you think of…executive chef Adam Maddox? Clap-clap bravo, dinner was superb at Einstein’s. Oh, please… it’s just- I don’t know- judging from the sound of orders, business is booming. Einstein’s is a nifty venue–it is a trendy spot with very chic decor and dance music fills the place with energy; it is a place the “midtowners” can easily walk to on their way to a concert or Piedmont Park. Einstein’s combines a world-class outdoor patio with a sophisticated bar stocked with Heineken, and interior dining for the most unique space in Atlanta. Inside luxe décor creates a casual, modish atmosphere, highlighted by stylish lighting and rich wood trim. Outside, a large tree-shaded patio beckons, earning Einstein’s the most votes as “Best Outdoor Dining Experience” year after year. The food–one word: magnifique. The menu here is beyond flavorful (the fried okra is the best of all time) which topped this dinner off, No-no this isn’t a question. R.S.V.P. yes to Einstein’s.

Show me–what’s your favorite spot in Little 5 Points? Can I–talk like it’s just you and I? Well, we spotted faux Louis Vuitton sneakers in the vintage store Rag‐O‐Rama (see bottom right photo), and headed straight for the door! Little 5 Points is often described as “bohemian”. Translation: a lot of homeless people, amateur musicians, piercings and tattoos. Five Points is credited with being the indie center of Atlanta–the house of the indie crowd, but many of the shops are a bore. In the past couple of years the pan handlers have become fiercly aggressive resulting in a total buzz kill when you are getting hassled every time you leave a location to visit another. Your thoughts too: don’t touch my fur my dear [Dominique Deveraux voice]. My friends – who have an eclectic taste and artsy flair – insisted we go to Little Five Points to look for clothes, aka peddling nothing better than the stuff you get at Goodwill or Salvation Army but they label it as “vintage”. Or maybe I’m just disppointed we came across some fake sh** at a store that appraises every piece of article they buy from customers. Somebody was sleeping on the job, obviously. I pulled out the Purell and wiped myself down and left. The rest of us will be enjoying our shopping time in Phillips Plaza. With Versace, Gucci, Theory and them. I hope this was helpful.

+ The weather was perfect – the crowd was a mix of young whippersnappers and older professionals. A lot more Polo and Brooks Bros than the typical Washington bar can stand to allow in – actually a fresh relief from the bedazzled crap you typically see. The one problem you may run into at this place is parking, I definitely suggest VALET!!! This place reminds me a lot of Pulp Fiction, not really the appearance, but the theme. It’s a sports bar with club/lounge-like tendencies–you’ll catch loud tunes and dolled up folks. Oh, Sawyer Park, I love you so. Houston make me proud.
