Time to Bust Out the NYC Summer Guides

Lydia and I warming up our summer dance moves at EDC NYC

Heyyy there summer. It's time to study up on the top NYC summer guides and start planning the best staycations, starting with these (warning: the last two are a bit bouji):

• Immaculate Infatuation: http://cdn.immaculateinfatuation.com/downloads/Immaculate-Infatuation-Summer-Guide.pdf
• NY Mag: http://nymag.com/guides/summer/
• Vanity Fair: http://promotions.vf.com/summerguide/content/Summer-Guide-2012.pdf
• Book Report: https://s3.amazonaws.com/BookReportNewYork/SUMMERGUIDE2012.pdf

Don't forget the millions of free outdoor concerts:

• Summer Stage: http://www.cityparksfoundation.org/summerstage/
• Celebrate Brooklyn!: http://www.bricartsmedia.org/performing-arts/celebrate-brooklyn/celebrate-brooklyn-2012-season-at-the-bandshell 
• Williamsburg Park: http://www.freewilliamsburg.com/listings/h2oshows
• River Rocks NYC: http://riverrocksnyc.com/index.html

My bucket list includes visiting the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens, movies at Bryant Park, general activities involving beer gardens and checking out the new McCarren Park Pool!

If you don't live in NYC, you should check out Discover America's Summer Guide for all of US.

My Favorite Season is Here--SUMMAH!

A photo I took last summer at the Frying Pan - what a yuppie cluster****. Yay Summer!

NYC Summers are the best (minus the heat) because you can actually take advantage of all the public spaces the city has to offer and not to mention awesome outdoor day-drinking spots!

SUMMERS ARE AWESOME! LET'S HANG!
