Okay let’s be real: the VS fashion show this week made everyone rethink the term #GIRLSQUAD. I mean, these people aren’t real (unless you and your besties strut around in lingere and angel wings. Anyone?) If anything it just reminded me of how lucky I am to have a great group of girls in my life.
Shopping for friends has to be the easiest for me, since we all have similar taste. Basically I just look for things that I love and then think about what my friends would like the most. I love giving something that is practical but yet fun! I also love the idea of forgoing gifts and just doing something together.
Treat each other to manicures
Get blow outs…and then cocktails
Do something you’re both a bit afraid of – think go karting, skydiving, etc!
Watch a great chick flick over champagne and a cheese plate
Find a cooking class in your area
Clean out your closets and hold a clothing exchange (with wine, of course)
And of course, do a fun bestie photo shoot – since blurry bar photos aren’t the best.
Sign up for a beauty subscription box together and compare your samples
Afterwards, get some matching frames to showcase your snaps. Even better if you can find a pink wall!
Other random tips: check out your friend’s Pinterest board for Inspiration or create a photo book from their Instagram feed. Thankfully there’s lots of ideas out there in the cyber world, you just gotta keep an eye out. Happy shopping, gals!
