Last night at the Martin Lawrence Gallery in NYC, Angela Simmons started her 25th birthday celebration a few days early with a cutesy party with fam and friends.

Check out Ange partying it up with Vanessa, their mom (pictured above), her celeb friends & more inside…

Angela Simmons copped a kiss from her mom at her artsy b-day party in Soho hosted by PYNK mag and put on by Adair Curtis and her publicist Tamar Bazin.  Rocking a sexy zipper embellished dress she co-designed with Edwing D’Angelo, the socialite businesswoman had some fun with fam and friends.  And even got serenaded with "Happy Birthday" by Bridget Kelly:

Interesting picture back there…

Her fellow reality star friend Tamar Braxton looked fab for the occasion.

And of course, her hubby Vince Herbert was there too as the twosome ready their new "Tamar & Vince" reality series.

Her girl Tika Sumpter came through looking fabulous as usual.  And she snapped pics with the birthday girl and Russell Simmons.

Vanessa looked fab in sparkly pumps and a little black dress with a printed jacket:

Are we feeling BK’s dress?

Angela snapped pics with her dad Rev. Run & uncle Russell, all while flaunting her cut-out dress.

Ange’s rapper homie Theophilus London was there to party.

And so was NY Knick J.R. Smith.  This dude is everywhere these days trying to be on the scene isn’t he?

Looking fab Angela!
