Beautiful barflies at AZ88

Ever since we loitered at the Scottsdale Civic Center as 14-year-olds, we've been dying to drink at AZ88. Its banana-boat lighting and pink bathrooms were so enticing that we couldn't wait until our 21st birthday.

Now that we're well past that milestone, AZ88 has endured as one of our favorite spots. The only difference is that the bathrooms are way more confusing in our adult inebriation. On Friday, February 8, we enjoyed a lovely cocktail after catching some killer art at the neighboring Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Arts. (Click here for more photos.) Everyone was in great spirits under the complimentary lighting, making for one of the prettiest Club Candids ever.
