Visiting New York City in the fall should be on everyones bucket list. It is absolutely gorgeous! For some reason, every fall I can’t help but imagine Kathleen Kelly from “You’ve Got Mail” prancing around with a bouquet of newly sharpened pencils {anyone else with me?}. Fall in NYC makes me giddy.
If you follow me on instagram, you likely know that I love picnics and take every chance I can to picnic in Central Park. And while I do love picnics in the summer, picnics in the fall are even better! And this past weekend really felt like fall so I put on one of my new favorite dresses, packed up a few of our favorite treats in my new Cool Gear tubs, grabbed my favorite Turkish Towel to sit on and made our way to the park!
This is my favorite place to picnic in Central Park. I love sitting under one of the large trees in the summer or sitting in the sun in the fall. There is something romantic about sipping wine while watching the row boats in the lake and seeing people from around the world soak up the beauty of the park.
^^ I will definitely be a repeat offender in this dress. It is so comfortable and will be an easy go-to in this cooler weather. And it’s under $25! You need to go grab it before it sells out again! Don’t you think it would be the perfect dress for apple picking?
^^ can you tell I love Zabar’s? Their cheese and black & white cookies are the best! ^^
If you are like me and love to picnic or tailgate, you seriously need these Cool Gear containers! The lids have freezer gel in them and keep your food chilled for hours. You just need to freeze the lids beforehand. I was a little skeptical at first if they would really work, but they kept our chocolate pretzels from melting in the sun and kept our food the perfect temperature! I love them! I plan on buying another set of their storage containers for our kitchen!
Fall also brings some of the pretties sunsets, so as the day began to come to a close we packed up our things and headed to the pier to watch the sunset. It was a perfect day!
I also can’t wait to take this Turkish Towel to California and use it on the beach! When living in Thailand I learned how much easier and realistically, more convenient it is, to use a turkish towel instead of a traditional beach towel. They take up a fraction of the space and can be used as both a coverup and a towel. This towel get a TON of use and it is also under $25!
