I was in California all of last week, soaking in rays of sun, sipping margaritas and spending time with some of my favorite people. The day I returned to New York City was the Big Apple’s first real hot note of sunshine this year. Subways sprayed air conditioning, single ladies sported sandals and the isle of Manhattan physically felt different. It always does, during the shift toward the sun-season. Let’s keep the heat and head over to one of Brooklyn’s best outdoor bars, Hot Bird.

The former auto shop turned spacious patio bar is a perfect pause while in Prospect Heights. Gather up your fun and savvy friends for a fizz or three.

Keep calm and cool in the hippie-chic vibes of Les Nouvelles’ web offerings. One of my favorite frocks is the Embroidered Shirred Tank Dress. If we can’t leave the East Coast for Coachella, let’s celebrate in style nonetheless.

Check out more bohemian accessories here. Cheers my dears!
