Sunshine!
April 10, 2008 by arielle
It is beautiful outside. Like almost hot. I was sweating walking home from the train. Now - I’m not embarrassed to tell you - I’m really kind of a sweater in general, but still, this was somewhat remarkable.
Also, I know it’s warm because I saw some interesting outfits on my way home this afternoon. Like a girl who I’m pretty sure must have bought Britany Spears’ entire get-up from the “Oops, I Did it Again” video and decided that today was THE day to break it out. And the girl who was wearing all neon yellow and hot pink, head to toe, including two necklaces (one yellow, one pink, of course), a SCRUNCHIE, and her bra. Yes, that means I could see her bra. She went with pink, which I thought was a good choice.
And in other news, I’m going to eat outside tonight! Hopefully. I’m going to happy hour, and then have dinner reservations at 7:30, so fingers crossed that it will still be nice enough by then. My favorite thing to do is eat outside. Well, obviously I’m happy to eat anywhere, at anytime, but one of the best things about summer is going to a restaurant and sitting on the sidewalk and watching the people and drinking too many margaritas.
Anyway, for a snack this afternoon I had another Z Bar. Boring, sorry, but I wasn’t very hungry and it was easy.

I love people watching. Sounds like you had some interesting ones to watch
I LOVE eating outside!! And COOKING outside!! It’s definitely not as hot here as your weather, but I’ve fired up the grill a few times already!
You live in Brooklyn, right? Those kind of outfits are mandatory.
what is it about warm weather and mexican food that just goes so well together? mmmmm margaritas.
There’s no city like to New York for seeing the crazies out and about.
I know, the weather has been SPECTACULAR today!!
Oh my goodness, that outfit sounds HIDEOUS!!! Only in New York, right? ;0)
Have fun dining al fresco tonight!! :0)
Send some sunshine my way! I have 1/2 a food of snow. =(
Enjoy eating outside tonight!
I hope you enjoy your dinner outside
too funny about the outfits ha
oooo-there sure were lots of crazy outfits out there yesterday. what’s up with the headbands??? like, around the forehead headbands? have you noticed those too?
i’m a sweater too-i dont’ like to admit it, but it’s hard to deny.
Cara -
There’s always interesting people round here.
Erika -
I’m jealous. I wish we could grill. I am still looking for a friend here who has a backyard and a grill so that I can use them for barbeques.
Rachel -
True. But this was in Manhattan.
Anne -
I KNOW! I think the same thing. Summer doesn’t start until I’ve had my first margarita. And I don’t really go to mexican restaurants in the winter.
Megkathleen -
Very true.
VeggieGirl -
Thanks! Yeah, I don’t think you’d see that elsewhere.
Romina -
That really sucks. I’m sorry. It’s supposed to rain here for like the next five days, if it makes you feel any better.
Lindz -
Thanks!!
Betsy -
Yes. Actually, the first time I noticed it was on Stephanie Pratt on the hills. She must be quite the trend-setter. I refuse to buy into this look.
And yes, sweating, especially if it involves pit stains, is hard to deny.
