Get your flirt on Brooklyn-Style

We all know that Social Divas own every place we show up. Put on your cutest summer dress and arrive in style at these fabulous Brooklyn hotspots, then get ready to set the night on fire, Diva-style.

Party in Park Slope: In the heart of the slope lies Brookvin, a new-and-noteworthy wine bar. Take a seat on their outdoor patio in the back or sit at the uber-chic bar and flirt with Slope singles that come here to chillax. With an extensive wine and cocktail list, delicious snacks and super friendly service, this is a Must Do, Diva. 381 Seventh Ave., Brooklyn, NY 11215; 718-768-9463

Wind it Up in Windsor Terrace: This up-and-coming area houses a little-known hotspot, Quarter. This hidden gem is a craftsman bar where all the ingredients for the uniquely curated drink list are made fresh from hand (no bottled mixes here, Diva). Enjoy a finely crafted drink, wine or beer in the funky open-air space in back or enjoy indie rock at the cozy inside bar while you flirt with cute hipster locals. 676 5th Avenue nr. 20th St, Brooklyn, NY 11215; 718-788-0989

Cocktail in Carroll Gardens: Grab a fellow Diva for The JakeWalk, a Smith Street cheese-and-wine-bar. Get there early to get a seat, then enjoy expert guidance on pairing 40 cheeses with one of their 50 wines by the glass. With 130 “brown liquors” on hand, expect men who like their drinks and conversation either neat or on the rocks. 282 Smith St., Brooklyn, NY 11231 347-599-0294

More Charm in Carroll Gardens: You can’t swing a Gucci bag in Char No. 4 without hitting some gorgeous fellow. A bourbon-centric bar with a Southern barbecue menu to match, you can sample over 300 whiskeys available by the one-ounce pour. Great for after work or mixing it up on the weekend, good times and gorgeous men abound. 196 Smith St., Brooklyn, NY 11201; 718-643-2106

Get Down In DUMBO/Fulton Ferry: Looking for a chic art bar? Say no more: 68 Jay St. Bar is the place to be. Tres European with excellent lighting and décor, expect to run into gallery and design execs more so than the artists they feature. With several cost-effective but excellent wines by the glass and superior happy hour drinks, this Recessionista special might become your new Diva hangout. 68 Jay St., Brooklyn, NY 1120; 718-260-8207

Wild On Williamsburg: Even though the area is covered in bars and nightspots, we’re partial to The Richardson. Very little attitude with amazing, expertly-mixed cocktails, this gorgeous Prohibition-style speakeasy brings an attractive local crowd who flirt over a wide selection of beverages, then linger over small plates late into the night. 451 Graham Street, Brooklyn, NY 11222; 718-389-0839

It’s time to do it Brooklyn-style, Divas.
