there's something bittersweet about august in new york.
the city is still buzzing with summer energy, but you can feel the seasons beginning to shift. the sunsets come a little earlier, the evenings are just a little softer, and everyone seems determined to squeeze every last drop out of summer.
personally? i kind of love it.
august is the month for saying yes to rooftop dinners, lingering in bookstores a little longer, catching an outdoor movie, or taking the ferry somewhere just because you can.
