20 Things to Do Before Summer Ends
Can we all collectively agree that it feels like summer just started? And yet here we are, with back-to-school, fall fashion, pumpkin spice things (Whyyyyyy???!) and end-of-summer parties to tell us otherwise. It's a true tragedy. I don't know about you, though, I'm not willing to accept it just yet. No, sir. I'm hanging on to every last drop of these golden summer rays and days that I can. Who's with me? I hope you are because I've created a whole big list of 20 things to do before summer ends. I mean, obvi drink all the rosé and spend every possible second at the beach is a given, and you should totes do those things, but besides that here are a few other ideas to help you finish #summer16strong...
- Go on a picnic
- Have a drink al fresco
- Catch a sunset (preferably from a rooftop, beach or boat)
- Read one last beach book (I currently reading this book and can't put it down!)
- Treat yourself to a new end-of-summer-swimsuit (if only because they're all on sale now!)
- Go on an ice cream cone date with friends and/or your significant other
- Make popsicles (and be really crazy and have one for breakfast)
- Have a water balloon fight
- Host a "wear white + drink rosé" party
- Rise with the sun and have an early morning breakfast (bonus points for having it by the water)
- Participate in an outdoor activity (kayaking, yoga in a park, a concert, a movie screening, etc)
- Take a typically indoor activity outdoors (i.e. a meeting, your workout, a meal, giving yourself a mani and pedi, etc)
- Grill dinner
- Give yourself a fresh fruit beauty treatment (read this article and this one for some ideas)
- Drink your wine as a slushy, instead of, ya know, plain ol' regular wine (or really drink any of your cocktails frozen)
- Volunteer for an outdoor-based activity (beach clean-up, shelter dog walking, gardening, etc)
- Gaze at the stars
- Go on a road trip, even if it's just for a day, complete with fun playlist, iced coffees, windows down, hair blowing in the window
- Play hooky and head to the pool/lake/beach
- Make a meal entirely from things picked up at your local farmers market
