It all started when someone gave us a Bacaro gift card. We went back for dinner and realized there's so much we need to share asap, including:

1. End of summer means spicing up your constant nude lip game. Solution - MAC Rebel Lipstick with Nightingale Liner. So pretty.

2. Wear your cutest sundress. (But maybe bring along a sweater just in case though.)

3. It's come to our attention that many don't know Bacaro has a (summer) patio. You'll want to dine there before it shuts down for the fall/winter.

4. Their pizza is a must! (They're super famous for it.)

5. Make your own board - Because you know what you like!

6. Who doesn't LOVE lemon? Order some pasta with lemony aioli.

7. Get the Cioppino too - nice and light for the remaining days of summer 2017.

8. Keep an eye on that one friend who wants to Insta Story everything. (Ugh.)

9. Stop that other friend, who gets drunk AF on only 2 glasses of wine, from posting ugly selfies. (It's the decent thing to do.)

10. Top off the night with a nice Espresso Martini. Yum.
