The event was beautiful and shouts out to his pr/event planners for making the Atlanta History Museum look gorg! Everyone was wearing formal wear and looking extravagant as they strutted the red carpet! The theme was Putting On The Ritz! He arrived by police escort in a horse and carriage. In his carriage was Akon and Yung Joc dressed in white. I loved Devyne’s outfit and he told me he was styled by Middle Man.

Lisa Wu Hartwell’s Dinner Affair

Monday, March 30th, 2009

Lisa Wu Hartwell

While back, I got a private invite to Lisa Wu Hartwell’s dinner party. I remember awhile back at Niecy Nash’s birthday bash, Lisa asking me if I wanted to attend her dinner party. We had always been cordial but I didnt think she was really serious about inviting me to her home. Lisa and Ed have always been so fun to see on the red carpets. I have always been Lisa’s purse holder too, so she could take good pics on the carpet,she told me that she liked my spirit.

Ed & Lisa Hartwell and guests

Well come to find out, Lisa lives down the road from me, so that made it even better. As I got all gussied up, I headed over to her house and it was such a beautiful gated community. The first thing I thought about was all the rumors that most of the housewives of Atlanta were broke….well everyone The Hartwells do not fit that description at all! Woot!

Dinner guests

They have it goin on, with their beautiful mansion,pool,spa,workout gym, bowling alley named “Hartwell Lanes” and wine cellar, just to name of few things in their home. I said,”Lisa you have to show me your closet”! But we will get back to that later…

The guest started to arrive like Q from 112, Kandis(new housewife) and her fiance A.J. Jewell which was really nice,Dwight Eubanks and more. The dinner affair was lovely and prepared by Chef Keith Kash.

Lisa and Jamal

I felt so honored you guys to be there and among the other guests. Im glad that Lisa felt like I was genuine enough. My friend Diane Larche(Larche Communications) sat next to me,we had so much fun.

Lisa looks like a princess

You should have seen Lisa’s dress, she looked like a princess, she said a designer by the name of Tracy made it for her, very stunning! Ed looked handsome in his custom made suit too. He told me he was leaving to tryout for a new team, he was excited about that.

What a diva lol

So back to the Lisa’s closet…lol. After everyone left we were all sitting at the kitchen counter just chatting it up when Lisa went and changed and pulled her hair back in a ponytail. She is so real you guys! She still looked cute with sweats on lol. Kandis(former member of Escape) and I said,” show us around”.

Lisa showed us her art room where she paints, she has some great abstract work shes done. Then she took us to her bedroom,I’ve never seen anyones bedroom designed like hers. It was like a purple and blue color with tray ceilings. Very pretty silk linens, curtains and fab bed! Then she opened the door to her closet, I almost fainted from looking at all the shoes!!! Her closet was my bedroom lol! Rows and Rows of glittery lil shoes. I said Lisa what size do you wear? She said,” 7″. I was mad, cause I saw some Christian Louboutin shoes I was looking at! The clothes this Diva has is unbelievable, it was so fun looking at her dresses and suits,so fun!

Me and Diane Larche(Larche Communications)

Im so glad The Hartwells invited me out, what a blessing! It was truly a fun and rememberable night. I didnt get home till 2am! Cant wait to do it again!
