There are definite benefits to living and working in New York City such as culture and restaurants within walking distance, amazing opportunities, and living in the center of such energy.
But, there is nothing I love more, as I’ve quickly learned, than summer in New York City. Sure you’ll find me venting about a few things this summer.
-NYC is crammed with tourists-Subways are hotter and more humid than your spa’s sauna– My feet are black by the end of the day when I wear flip flops through the city streets
But none of this can compare to feeling that washes over the city Memorial Day weekend. Markets pop up in every square and park, providing city dwellers with fresh produce and crafts. Streets shut down to taxis and other car traffic in honor of “Summer Streets.” Restaurants move their delicious food and refreshing drinks onto the city sidewalks as patrons relax outside in the evenings.
Yogis in the city are able to salute the sun and skyscrapers during yoga in the parks and other
exercise enthusiasts move from the treadmill and spin bike to summer streets.
In addition, there is amazing perk offered in many offices known as “Summer Fridays.”
Summer Fridays allow employees to leave the office mid-day to start the weekend in exchange for earlier mornings or later evenings Monday through Thursday. In honor of my first Summer Friday, I have put together an outfit which is perfect for both my cold office and this afternoon’s rooftop happy hour.
The outfit I’m wearing today is a bit of a risk as I’m wearing white jeans before Memorial Day but what can I say, living in NYC has made me a bit of a rebel!
This outfit looks cute! You should post of pic of you in it! hope you enjoy your first summer friday and havea good time at happy hour!
