As most of you know, fall is my favorite season in New York. I always tell people to visit in the fall and no one ever does. Except Kyle who listens to his wiser big sister. Anyway, now that summer is winding down, I can almost taste the greatness that is fall looming in the not to far distance. Things I love about fall in NYC:
1. The perfect weather. It’s just right for a jean jacket and a cute scarf. And we all seem to look our best in the fall. You don’t have to see anyones ass or thong but then again, there aren’t so many layers that we all look like snowmen. Also, its not quite cool enough for everyone to wear their Uggs which I hate and too warm for flip flops which can be killers-especially if you step on a rock and toenails get lost in the bargain.
2. I can straighten my hair! Technically, this is weather related as the absence of the suffocating humidity makes this possible, but I’m so excited about it that I wanted it to have it’s own number.
3. You can wear a lot more earth tones and even match your friends.
4. Central park is absolutely at its best this time of year.
5. You get to carve pumpkins and drink cider.
6. The NYC Marathon-Brianne’s favorite day to be in the city is in the fall!
7. And I’ve saved the best for last-Football Season Starts!
I do realize that most of these things, other than Central Park and the Marathon happen in all places, but what can you do? New York has a special magic in the fall and since none of you have been here at this time, you can’t contradict me!
