You must eat! You must drink! And DANCE!
I'm sure we all felt at home at the Arise after party as it was all about indulging and being merry. Held at the Plaza Hotel, the party was grand and hard to get into after 11 when a concert by Ciara broke out and entry was shut down.

Friends still at the door had to devise a "mission impossible" to make it for one drink before they whisked away the buffet and shut down the seemingly never ending open bar. But I mingled with people I knew and people I didn't to keep myself entertained. Check a couple shots below and shots of the Arise show here.
