NYE Special Events

For several years my NYE included hitting up the hot clubs, dancing all night then toasting in the new year with (several) glasses of champagne!  As I have entered my 30s (early), things seemed to have mellowed down for me a little.  Now don't get me wrong, I love a great party, but I am now more into chilling at my favorite lounge/restaurant and enjoying a good martini with my girls.  This year, I will probably go a restaurant (with a lavish buffet including some form of seafood), then chill at my Sorors house for her annual NYE bash which my husband and I have attended for the last 3 years.  

I'm sure you all are yawing right about now...but hey let me do me!!  But for all you divas that want to kick it in style in your 5" stillettos in the dead of winter, here are my top 5 picks for wrapping up 09 with a NYE bash you won't soon forget.

Now, before you Urbanistas go out and start drinking (or for those who want to keep it low key), you may want to check out some of the fabulous St. Louis restaurants that have their own NYE celebrations going on.  My hubby and I may be checking out Red Kitchen & Bar at the Hyatt, but Mosaic, Moulin, and the Chase are some great options as well.  Whatever you decide to do, please have fun and always be safe!!
