Happy Hour is the New Hour

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at CU Boulder chapter.

So we’ve all done the hill, we’ve worn out trivia night, babe’s night, and any others of the sort. Let’s not forget about all of the wonderful happy hours waiting for us to come in and indulge. Make 5 o’clock your new 10 o’clock and catch some great deals on cocktails, beer, and amazing food. I know I love Boulder’s no-chain-restaurant vibe, it offers originality and a more authentic feel while you’re dining, and it gets you off that college beaten path. We can all use an escape from time to time. 

Kristie Dunnigan is a junior studying business marketing at the University of Colorado at Boulder. She was born in Montana and later moved to the beautiful state of Colorado. Country girl at heart yearning for a big city life, she recently spent 3 months living in NYC interning for Oscar de la Renta as an international and domestic sales intern (and has spent everyday since trying to figure out how to get back to that concrete jungle). It's that city strut and over the top street style fashion that this girl cannot get enough of. She is Vice President of the American Marketing Association Chapter at Boulder, and is currently interning at shopgoldyn.com to fulfill creative needs. When she isn't snowboarding, blogging, or enjoying the amazing friends and family that fill her days, you will probably find this old soul buried in a thrift store or nearest local flea market over indulging in the good life.
