Monday Morning Hangover: Mardi Gras, Goths, and Bondage

It didn't rain this weekend. Well, not really. There was a torrential downpour Saturday night, and while most kids were tucked in their beds, the streets, as cold as they were, were crowded with people primed to party as a respite from ghastly weather.

Cafe Van Clef got into the spirit, throwing an early Mardi Gras party. Brass music and shimmying were the order of the day, and patrons threw back a few (or more), getting pumped to cheer on the Saints at Sunday's Superbowl. Check out shots of the to-do in Calibree Photography's Mardi Gras @ Cafe Vane Cleef.

​Things were a bit less sunny, but no less sultry at the DNA Lounge, where striped stockings, top hats, and crinoline were donned for the Swing Goth's Wonderland: A Tim Burton Ball. Lovely shots of the dark dance in Richard Haick's  Swing Goth's Wonderland: A Tim Burton Ball.

​ The futuristic interior of the Supperclub played host to some guests who had been very bad and deserved to be spanked at their Bondage Night. View shots of the spectacle in Hanna Quevedo's Bondage Night at Supperclub SF.
