There’s something for everyone.

Whether you’re hitting up Turks and Caicos or your local strip mall, spring break is the turning point in the year where everyone starts shopping for the upcoming seasons. Move over, Fake Spring – we have some real promise ahead of us!

Here are the ins for your new summer persona: what to get, what to spend, and how to treat yourself!

For the stay-cation girlies

Every good staycation has a solid shopping trip built in. Here’s exactly what you need for a calm and collected week at home.

Free People Hit The Slopes Jacket

This adorable spring jacket from Free People bridges the gap between “too cold for short sleeves” and “summer’s almost here” weather. Retailing at $128 and coming in 20 colorways, this stylish jacket is perfect in this season.

HSLOT Tickets

A staycation isn’t complete without a spontaneous activity! Grab some tickets for you and your besties to a concert, an art museum, or a play near you.

Spring Manicure

Let’s come back to college feeling fresh! A new spring-y nail set will have you feeling like a true baddie. Plus, an hour-long manicure will give you just enough time to think about your college situationship.
