How to Celebrate Galentines Day Right

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at U Maine chapter.

The famous and favorite holiday of Leslie Knope from Parks and Rec celebrating the love and friendship of your girlfriends!  It is celebrated the day before Valentine’s Day (February 13) and is a way for women to reclaim an old fashioned holiday centered around heterosexual couples.  It is also another way for women to celebrate other women, and just enjoy each other with pampering yourselves.  Girls go out and do something special with your friends, because who wouldn’t want to go out and do your favorite things with your favorite people? Here are some ideas on how to spend this special day with your girls:

 

1.      Go out for breakfast/brunch

2.      Get manicures/pedicures

3.      Go shopping

4.      Go to a museum

5.      Go to the movies

6.      Just spend quality time together

 

Go make the best of this day with your best friends, and wish a Happy Galentine’s Day to all the girl’s you know!
