Packing Made Fabulous!

This is a sponsored feature. All opinions are 100% from Her Campus.

It’s that deliriously taunting time of year when spring break is so close you can almost taste it, yet the days seem to drag on forever. And then, of course, you have to pack. Ugh. Pack. Packing. Unpacking. No matter how you put it, no matter what it’s for – it feels like a chore. And heaven knows we all hate chores. Remember when your mom would say, “Sure, you can go out. But first you have to clean your room.” I’m pretty sure packing is the world’s equivalent – “Sure, you can go on a fabulous vacation. But… first you have to pack.”

There’s two types of packers in the world – the clueless and the neurotic. The clueless are the ones who think it’s ok to leave on a trip with nothing but your toothbrush and an extra shirt. My best friend, Morgan, is one of these. She used to always go on vacation with my family bringing only a purse the size of a ziplock bag. Being the control freak that I am, I would flip out, demanding to know what she planned to do with only two items. As any carefree, go-with-the-flow, relaxed kind of person would do, she’d simply shrug her shoulders and laugh at my seemingly ridiculous inquiry.

The neurotic packers, however, are the ones (like myself) who insist on bringing every item in their closet along on even the shortest of trip. (My senior year spring break, I went to Florida for 5 days and brought the THREE BIGGEST suitcases my family owned.) Because these freaks of nature are terrified at the thought of wanting something they left at home, we bring even our winter coats when we vacation in the Bahamas (true story. another true story – I didn’t need it. say what?)

So what do you do if you’re a clueless or neurotic packer? Why, you shop at Juicy, of course! As if Juicy doesn’t already have the world’s cutest… well, everything… they now also offer complete (and of course fashionable) VACATION KITS! So now even crazy people like Morgan and I can have a stress-free spring break!

Since most people tend to vacation in warm weathered areas this time of year, Juicy offers the ULTIMATE Beach Survival Kit. Complete with a “Life is Juicy” beach bag, bedazzled water bottle, and white terry sun hat – every Juicy girl will be prepared to catch some rays in style! But don’t forget you’r pink Beach Roll-Up Mat & Pillow with plush quilting and handles. Now you can lay out cute and comfortably! (No more opening up your beach towel to a wind full of sand in your face!)

Ok, so what about the tons of people who aren’t going to the tropics on spring break? Don’t worry – Juicy thought of you too! That’s why they created the fabulous Staycation Kit! This gorgeous tote comes with BUILT-IN MP3 SPEAKERS (um, hello? How amazing is that?!) and everything you need for a perfect picnic for two! Whether you take your boyfriend or your best friend, they’ll be blown away by the luxurious JC blanket and couture kitchenware -two plates, stainless steel silverware, napkins, placemats and tumblers.

Thanks to these amazing products, EVERYONE can have a fabulously Juicy spring break no matter where you are! Happy Spring Breaking Everyone!!

My name is Maura Murphy and I am a junior at Boston University with a working major in advertising. I am a sister in Delta Gamma and, more recently, one of the three new Juicy sisters! I love Juicy Couture because the brand is fashionable but unique, which fits my personality perfectly. I like to fit in, but I also like to stand out and Juicy apparel helps me to look my finest at all times while doing just that. My interests include traveling, shopping and cooking. I am an avid Boston Celtics fan and played basketball for 11 years. I am outgoing, adventurous and passionate. I adore getting dressed up and hitting the town, but also love the nights in with my roommates, spent watching Friends in our pajamas. Gale Sayers once said, “I learned that if you want to make it bad enough, no matter how bad it is, you can make it." I use this quote to focus on the goals I have in life and how to achieve them. I believe that despite any obstacle life throws at you, passion and determination can drive you to the top, so long as you are willing to work for success. That’s all I have for now, but if you’d ever like to know more – just ask! Ciao, Maura
