Okay, you might or might not have heard of this – but what is Summer Solstice? Technically speaking, it is an astronomical occasion where the Earth is titled in its greatest inclination toward the sun, providing the longest period between sunrise and sunset.

In the early ages, native American tribes spend the longest day of the year by performing Sun Dance, and other historical celebrations of the summer solstice. Millennials might not know what to do on this day, so here are a few tips from your AM Girls:

Get Your Yoga on with Athleta Mind Over Madness Yoga

For the past years, this group is helping New Yorkers greet the morning sun on the first day of summer in Times Square by giving out a free hour-long class from 9 am to 7:30 pm. Have a sesh with your best bud by registering at the Solstice and receive a complimentary yoga mat!

Hop around in the Big Apple

The streets are watching and so are you. NYC has probably the most number of performers in subways and streets, so you will never go wrong in roaming around after a good yoga session and just feel the vibe and be inspired with how these musicians passionately play their instruments.

Find the best Restaurant in the City

This requires preparation. Everyone is most likely spending the day outside, so it is best to find your ideal restaurant or café where you’ll spend an hour or two munching on the most scrumptious dishes you’ve been craving for. Make reservations as early as two weeks ahead to avoid any hassle. After lunch, walk around NYC and find the best hotdogs or dessert and you’ll surely have a great time.

Fire in the Park

Historically, Summer solstice are celebrated based on fire, so it is undeniable that many people gather along different parks in picnic and planning a nighttime bonfire after the beautiful sunset. Make sure to bring enough for the family or friends (hey, s’mores are a must!) so you have a great time while enjoying each other’s company while watching the night sky.

Yes, June 18^th is National Splurge Day and while it isn’t a Bank Holiday, still try to save this day dedicated to trading yourself to anything that you’ve been wanting or craving for the past half year. There are a lot of things that you can indulge into – food trips, shopping, going on a vacation and many more.

If you are still undecided where to treat yourself, we’ve got you covered. Believe it or not, most female Americans, especially the married ones don’t really splurge on clothing, even if they have the money. June 18^th is the best day to treat yourself into a four-season-clothing haul. Not only this will really make you happy, this will definitely be useful for upcoming occasions that may need dressing up.

Summer

Do the summer clothing shopping first. June falls in the Summer Season, and since you want to be out most sunny days, you may run out of good summer clothes to wear. Invest on Summer Dresses, colorful shorts, flip flops and cute bandanas which would not cost you an expensive deal of cash as everything is on light garments.

Fall

After the hot weather from Summer, here comes the picturesque Autumn. As it is probably the coziest season, it’s time to revamp your closet and add some new items that you can wear for Fall. Invest on leather skirts, cropped sweaters, leggings and trench coats as they’re going to be your best friend on every Sunday date or Friday night out.

Winter

Okay, we say winter, I say layering. New York’s temperature can be cruel most of the time especially on this season, so you might want to add a couple new leggings or pants to your closet. New socks and mittens are an absolute must if you will be walking in and out of establishments. If you’re always in the city, it’s time to purchase a new long coat that will accompany you through the thick snow and cold weather.

Spring

And just as Winter passes, spring is reborn. Outdoor colors change from drab to fab. Be prepared to welcome the season with colorful wardrobe. Invest on lightweight and colorful sweaters, floral blouses, and pastel-colored heels. If you’re an office girl, lazy-morning-friendly dresses are your best bet, just add a good blazer and you’re good to go.

Doing a last-minute gift hunting for your beloved dad? We’re here to help!

Father’s Day is probably one of the best days to show some extra loving to your dads. Gift hunting won’t be that hard for you especially if you know what he really loves (well, he would actually like everything you’re going to give him *wink*). Scratch the usual greeting card and cake and look at the following categories that we gathered to help you find the best gift for dad!

The Workaholic Dad

So other dads’ usual 8-5 is 7-7pm to your dad? Relatable. Most dads are really attached to their work stuff because he wants the best for his family – and that should make you feel really proud! Show him that you support him a hundred percent by giving something that he can use while he’s working! Instead of the usual briefcase or duffel bag, try looking for a leather-ish backpack which can contain all of his things and he can carry on wherever he goes. Include a high-end power bank for his work phone – that way, he will never lose battery again!

The Geeky Dad

Does your dad still line up on every Marvel Movie Premiere Night? If he does, well you’ve got a geeky dad. He thinks he’s still one of the kids, and everyone adores them! If your dad is this type, he’ll probably most likely to still be playing with you after his work hours end until you both get tired. The best gift idea for geeky dads is none other than his favorite movie-inspired shirt and tumbler! His inner geek will definitely be shining once he sees that you really put in an effort in finding his favorite character!

The Musician Dad

This will probably be the most obvious thing to identify – if your dad really loves music! You might have grown up seeing an acoustic guitar hanging on your parents’ room, or maybe even used to having music sessions with your dad – or duh, just waking up to blasting music every day! You can get Mom’s help on this one to really get your dad’s favorite artist and you can choose from a variety of choices: Either a concert ticket, an album, or even an acoustic guitar inspired by that band!

We know that we cannot reciprocate the gift of life, but this is the best time to spoil your dad a little bit and let him know that you appreciate all of what he’s done for your family! Happy Father’s Day!
