The perfect summer day for every type of girl
Get ready to make the most of August with our ultimate summer agenda. We've compiled the perfect lists of activities for all types of girls that will create unforgettable summer memories before the first bell rings. From outdoor adventures to pampering mani-pedis, our list has it all. Whether you're an outdoorsy girl, a girly girl, a crafty girl or a chill girl, we've curated the perfect end-of-summer summer day for Y-O-U...
Girly girls
Ready for a self-care day? You deserve it, bb. Start your day off with a soothing spa sesh, complete with facials and mani-pedis. After pampering yourself, head out for a thrift shopping spree with your besties, where you can add some fabulous (and inexpensive!) pieces to your wardrobe. Next, gather your glam squad for makeovers (have you tried the mermaidcore makeup look yet?) and finish off the day with an IG photo shoot (peep our inspo here).
Outdoorsy girls
Begin your perfect summer day by embarking on a refreshing nature hike and discovering a new trail by your neighborhood. Later, cool off at an impromptu pool party with your BFFs. (No pool? Might we recommend water balloons!) As the sun sets, gather around a fire pit for s'mores and spooky stories. End the night by stargazing and wishing upon shooting stars (so cute, right?).
Crafty girls
Start the day with a DIY tie-dye sesh to create a unique and vibrant summer t-shirt. Next, head inside and channel your inner baker by whipping up some delish treats (scones = our pick). Afterward, take your treats and creativity outside for watercolor painting at the park. Lastly, gather any pics of your summer memories and create a personalized scrapbook that you can treasure forevs.
Chill girls
If your ideal summer day involves relaxation, start with a calming yoga sesh at the park (or just in your backyard) and enjoy the beautiful, serene setting. Next, head to the beach or the lake with your BFFs to soak up the sun with a chill playlist. As the day winds down, set up a cozy sunset picnic. Finish off the day snuggled up in blankets with your besties for a movie marathon—or a TSITP binge sesh.
