Now that graduation is almost here, we can think about celebrating summer’s awesomeness! Surf, sun, fun, here we come! We happened to get an awesome HC Survival Kit with all the things you need for a perfect summer.
Let’s start with the most perfect food group around, Chipotle. (No, that’s not a typo. Chipotle counts as a food group in my book.)
So Chipotle, America’s favorite restaurant, gave us some awesome BOGO cards. This is perfect because everyone knows that nothing is better on the belly or the spirit that a Chipotle burrito or burrito bowl after a hard week of finals! Celebrate all that hard work with something your taste buds will love. Your stomach will thank you.
Then of course, we cannot forget boohoo, the awesome fashion brand keeping us in style year round.
So boohoo gave us some really cool “April Showers” ponchos and #WeAreUSA magazines. You know why this is awesome? It’s because Aside from helping you stay dry with their handy dandy ponchos, boohoo’s newest #WeAreUSA campaign is all about being unapologetically YOU! Boohoo.com has grown from the UK’s best kept secret to one of the fastest growing international e-tailers; it has quickly evolved into a global fashion leader of its generation. Their newest marketing campaign, #WeAreUSA is inspired by an American summer scene and captures the essence of youth. Partnering with actress Bella Throne as WeAreNow, Rapper Angel Haze as WeAreBold, DJ Hannah Bronfman as WeAreFit, and model Chloe Norgaard as WeAreFree, the campaign brings together four influencers who represent a different facet of the American youth and embody what makes them them! Personally, I’m totally #WeAreNow.
Also, we’re sending some major #HCLove to our BFFs Her Campus.
So aside from pretty cool HCXO keychains, we also got Her Campus’s Guide to College Life postcards. If you haven’t gotten this book yet, you totally should! It’s a must read! The Her Campus Guide to College Life covers everything you need to know to rock from how to get along with your roommates to how to avoid the ‘freshman 15’, deal with tough professors, snag internships, decide whether to study abroad, and much, much more. As you’re celebrating yourself and prepping for a fab summer break, take a second to help an underclassman learn how to have the best years of her life! Gift a copy to your little or even to your favorite freshman, and don’t forget to post a photo of the book cover on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram tagging anyone you know who might benefit from this fun girl’s guide to college. Don’t forget to post with #HCbook and www.hercampus.com/book!
And since summer=more time to get in shape, we have to thank and totally appreciate the Crunch Live Free 30-Day Membership!
Nothing says #CelebrateYourself that getting in shape for the summer! Touted by The Real Talk Show as “one of America’s most innovative online gyms,” Crunch Live lets you work out from wherever you see fit (at school, home, hotel room, on vacation outdoors, etc). Thanks to Her Campus, we got an exclusive and free 30-day trial of Crunch Live which gives us unlimited access to 70+ online workouts inspired by Crunch’s most popular classes including kick butt cardio, strength training, yoga, pilates and more! Crunch offers an authentic in-gym experience online, with real instructors leading the classes. You getting totally jealous of us yet?
And now we have a new role model and woman to admire, Nicole Lapin with her book RICH BITCH: A Simple 12-Step Plan for Getting Your Financial Life Together…Finally.
This is awesome and a huge help because while budgeting sucks, being broke sucks much much more. Do your eyes glaze over just thinking about the mumbo-jumbo of finance? Do you break out into hives at the thought of money? Well, sister, you are not alone. In RICH BITCH, money expert and financial journalist Nicole Lapin lays out a 12-Step Plan in which she shares her experiences, mistakes and all, of getting her own finances in order. No lecturing, just help from a friend. And even though money is typically an off-limits conversation, nothing is off-limits here. Lapin rethinks every piece of financial wisdom you’ve ever heard and puts her own fresh, modern, sassy spin on it. Sure, there are some hard-and-fast rules about finance, but when it comes to your money, the only person who can spend it is you. Should you splurge on that morning latte? Likely yes. Instead of nickel-and-diming yourself, Nicole’s advice focuses on investing in yourself so you don’t have to stress over the little things. But, in order to do that you have to be able to speak the language of money. After all, money is a language like anything else, and the sooner you can join the conversation, the sooner you can live the life you want. RICH BITCH rehabs whatever bad habits you might have and provides a plan you can not only sustain, but thrive with. It’s time to go after the rich life you deserve, and confident enough to celebrate your finances and call yourself a RICH BITCH.
