11 Upsides To The End Of The NYC Summer

Before we curl up in a ball and lament the fun, musical, and temperate summer that was, let's get excited for the "perks" of the cooler seasons.

1. 1. SWEAT is no longer a constant battle.

With the cooler temperatures, we can finally switch back to that all natural deodorant from that iron-clad 128-hour protection one.

2. No more second guessing how cool this summer day is gonna be.

You CAN'T wear your fishnet crop top and plastic skirt, and you WILL bring your umbrella and hoodie.

3. The Subways will be a safe haven of heat rather than one of the lower levels of Dante's Inferno.

Nothing like a underground tunnel to escape that wind chill.

4. Fall Leaves + You = Instagram Win

Fall looks great on everybody... well, most people.

5. You have an excuse to cheat on your diet and excercize regimen... and just be lazy.
