Happy 4th of July!

July 4, 2012

Happy 4th of July and Independence Day everyone (at least to my fellow American blog readers out there)! I am offering 15% off everything in The Curvy Elle Shop today and tomorrow in celebration of the 4th!* Use Coupon code: 4THOFJULY15
(*Please Note: Since I am in the midst of moving, anything ordered today or tomorrow will not be mailed out until Saturday or Monday. Thanks for understanding!)
Yesterday I finished one of my “things to do before I leave New York.” I did: “Ride the subway to the northern most corner of Central Park and walk down.”
It started out all dandy. I rode the train to the top of the WEST side of the park, I got out of the train, and walked to the park entrance. 
It was beautiful, I was taking pictures… Walking, walking, walking. When I finally reached a street, I look over and it says, “5th Avenue.” SO, instead of going south, I went east in a big loop and ended up on the east side.
Go me! So easy to do in Central Park!
It was all good in the end. I had to take a different train home is all.

Tomorrow is my last full day in New York. It is my day for packing, cleaning, and running around like a chicken with its head cut off! I fly back to California on Friday.

No exciting outfit today! 90% of my clothes are either packed or in California. I am wearing “vintage” shorts that I thrifted, though! The navy shorts and red flip flops look very patriotic (even if I wasn’t trying to be). You can’t see it but my nails are also red.

I don’t think I would have wanted to dress up much yesterday anyway. It was sweltering and I was melting! I am one delicate flower when it comes to heat and humidity!

There are supposed to be fireworks on the Hudson River tonight. I think I am going to forgo trying to fight the crowds at the piers and try watching from my rooftops.

I haven’t watched a regular 4th of July fireworks show in YEARS. The city I grew up in stopped having a fire works show when I was a kid. What a disappointment! I used to love when we would drive our truck to some random parking lot and watch the fireworks show sitting in the truck bed.  I loved when they had fireworks in fun shapes and such.

Have barbeques and watch some fireworks today! Happy 4th of July!
