Spring has arrived and I must say that I prefer warm weather to arrive fashionably early rather than fashionably late. A little more shorts and sundress shopping time would have been nice, but I’m not complaining. In fact, I couldn’t be more excited to venture into the far reaches of my closet to resurrect my favorite Spring/Summer items. When the seasons change, I like to look at it from a socialite perspective. So I spent the evening brainstorming ways to celebrate Spring socialite style:
10. Shop for Warm Weather Essentials
Time to hit the stores and stock up on sunglasses, swimsuits, sandals, and sundresses for your travels and city adventures.
9. Drink Cocktails Outside
There’s nothing greater than sipping drinks with friends at a sunny sidewalk cafe. I’m also a huge fan of The Frying Pan, a bar comprised of three boats docked in the Hudson River.
8. Tan on the Rooftop
Rooftops in Manhattan provide excellent places to lounge while the weather is still mild.
7. Take a Spontaneous Beach Trip
It’s going to be 80 degrees on Thursday! Looks like the beach weather came early this year.
6. Relax in Central Park
Central Park provides New Yorkers with the best of both worlds. As you sit in a huge field filled with green grass and blooming trees, you see beautiful buildings in the distance. It’s absolutely wonderful!
5. Have a Spring Tea Party
Invite your friends over for Spring tea. It’s classy, especially if you dress up.
4. Outdoor Yoga
Yoga is just more relaxing under the sun. Plus, there are tons of free outdoor classes all over NYC.
3. Paint Your Nails Spring Colors
Pale pinks, blues, and greens always work for spring, but this year neons are in.
2. Drive with the Top Down
Nothing can make you feel more like you’re on top of the world than the first convertible drive of the year. Just don’t forget to bring along a hairbrush and makeup for photo touch ups.
1. Enjoy the World Around You
After spending the winter inside, you realize how much of the beauty of nature you’ve been missing. When walking around the city this time of year, I like to take the long way home.
