Setting the Mood: Falling for You

By admin|September 15th, 2014|Setting the Mood|

In one week, it will officially be autumn… as well as two of my favorite men’s birthday. Technically, it’s still summer, but the weather has taken a turn and the inevitable chill is in the air. As a matter of fact, as I type this with my window cracked, I can actually smell what epitomizes fall to me. When it’s not the skin melting heat of summer or the bone chilling frost of winter, the weather in Manhattan is nothing short of magical. Spring and fall, while both way too short, are reminders to residents as to why we tolerate exorbitant rent, public urination, and unreliable transportation. Start stashing your swimsuits and pull out your sweaters from the bins under your bed. Enjoy the brief pause that is fall and brace yourselves for what the Farmer’s Almanac is predicting to be one wild winter.

Setting the Mood: Hall Pass

By admin|September 1st, 2014|Setting the Mood|

Many of you have sung summer’s swan song with the commencement of Labor Day, but I would like to take an optimistic moment to point out that the official end of summer isn’t until September 23rd and if this Amazonian jungle like heat is any indication (don’t worry- the worst is coming), we have a few more weeks to revel in the sun. As the city refills with co-eds and those who spent all summer out east and jet setting around the globe, it starts to feel a little bit like a reunion. While I’m several years past returning to the classroom for another semester of mundane lectures and assignments I don’t understand, something about the beginning of September and the onset of Fashion Week festivities feels like the first day of school and trying to find a seat in the cafeteria without spilling your chocolate milk. Fall in New York elicits an excitement that is both magical and anxiety inducing. So, brace yourselves, ladies. Class is in session.
