Summer’s in full swing and you know what that means …..rooftop season is officially open! If you haven’t hit at least one rooftop party yet, sis, what are you even doing? Rooftop parties are the thing right now ….the higher the floor, the better the vibe. There’s just something about dancing under the stars with city lights twinkling around you that makes you feel like the main character in your own rom-com.
But before you grab your cutest two-piece set and slide into those barely-there sandals, let’s break down the real tea on rooftop parties …. the good, the bad, and how to survive them like the Hot Girl you are.
3 Pros of Rooftop Parties:
1️⃣ The Aesthetic: Let’s be real, rooftop parties are an Instagram story waiting to happen. Between skyline views, sunset selfies, and string lights, your feed will thank you.
2️⃣ The Vibes: Something about being elevated just makes people happier (and flirtier). The music hits harder, the drinks taste better, and you’re guaranteed at least one “this is a movie” moment.
3️⃣ The Breezes: Summer heat can be brutal, but a rooftop breeze? Chef’s kiss. It’s nature’s AC and your edges’ saving grace.
3 Cons of Rooftop Parties:
1️⃣ It Gets HOT: When that breeze stops, you’re one dance move away from sweat city.
2️⃣ Limited Seating: Unless you claim your spot early, you’ll be standing (and posing) all night.
3️⃣ Pricey Drinks: Rooftop cocktails hit different and so does the tab when you close it out.
How to Keep it Cute (and Cool):
Hydration is your BFF. Alternate those cocktails with water no one wants to be the girl passed out in the elevator. Bring a cute reusable water bottle if it’s allowed, or chug water before you head out.
Pack your Hot Girl Rooftop Essentials: a handheld fan (the foldable ones are clutch!), blotting papers for that T-zone, and a mini deodorant for a quick refresh. Pro tip: stash a pair of flats in your bag ….your feet will thank you when you’re making that Uber escape.
So call your girls, throw on your fave rooftop fit, and get ready to dance the night away ……..responsibly hydrated and looking flawless.
It’s Hot Girl Summa, baby …take it to the rooftop and make it one for the books!
