Girls Night Out Downtown @ Joule


So a few weeks ago a few of my friends and I decided to enjoy the beautiful Dallas fall weather and have a girls night out in Downtown Dallas. We decided to go to Hotel Joule, have a couple of drinks on the rooftop bar, Poule and end the night at PM lounge. The bar on the rooftop pool was gorgeous, we could stand in front of the Poule and see all of downtown Dallas.Perfect place to enjoy some warm weather with a cool fall breeze. After a few hours hanging out upstairs we headed downstairs to PM Lounge. The lounge was gorgeous, with beautiful decor and awesome music. We definitely had an awesome night!
