Show A Little Street Flare

Potential dud? ‘Tis the season for pop up shops and holiday markets. The city is crawling with them from Astoria to the Fleas in Chelsea Market and the Winter Village at Bryant Park in the city. There are lots of cool things to look at together or alternatively to distract you from how terribly wrong the date is going. The festivities will cheer you up and at the very least you can be productive and use him as springboard to test your holiday gift ideas out on. If it’s really that bad, a crowded holiday market is easy place to ditch someone. If luck is on your side and your date turns out to be a pleasant surprise, the festivities will set a romantic tone and maybe you’ll be the one receiving a holiday gift.
