How To Have An EPIC Girls' Day
There is nothing more important in this world than spending time with the people you love. Recently we decided to have one of those days full of joy sparking moments. We played hooky (shh, don’t tell) and had the MOST epic girl’s day together. We had so much fun we thought we needed to document the whole thing AND share how you and your girls can have just as great of a time.
First things first, take a day off during the week and plan to be “sick” or “have an all day doctor’s appointment”(wink, wink). Nothing is more fun than sipping wine in the middle of the day and saying “we should be at work right now” and giggling like a couple of school girls. It just really ups the excitement of the whole day.
Second, make a rough itinerary of your day. If you have big plans to go to a few places- map it out. Jesse is our Type A and creating an itinerary helps set her at ease and keeps Ashley on track. Make sure you allow for some spontaneity in your day too- a day full of wine drinking leads to some interesting ideas. Let it flow.
Our ideas with some suggested hot spots (if you’re in the Charleston area):
Wine (duh)
The Skinny Dip- The event space upstairs is lovely!
Coffee shops
Manis/pedis (if you’re really trying to go wild- massages and facials)
Shopping
There are so many places and everyone has their favorites. This can be dangerous though if it comes AFTER wine. You may have to explain to your husband/ significant other why you NEEDED to spend $150 on random new clothes and accessories. Just prepare yourself.
Go brewery hopping
Check out our Charleston breweries blog post for all the delicious local spots!
Rooftop with wine
Revelry Brewing- we know this isn’t wine, but it’s a great brewery with a rooftop soooo
Snapper Jack’s- This is not wine only, but if you’re out near Folly Beach it’s a super fun rooftop bar.
Look for fun photo ops
Find the weirdest clothing and do a fashion show together
This can basically happen in any of the fun places you stop to shop. To do this, it does help to have the wine first.
Go play with kittens and puppies at a local shelter
Any of the shelters are great, they let you play as long as you like!
Combine the wine and cats and head to Pounce Cat Cafe
Eat- *important with the wine drinking (we recommend going hard in the paint & trying a few different places. Small bites at each place)
We LOVED sampling Playa Bowls and Goat, Sheep, Cow
Take a FUN workout class together
Pole dancing at Goddess Dance Studio anyone?
Wine & Design / Paint & Sip
Let those creative juices flow
Beach Day
Time to get that tan on now!
If you’re with your best friend(s) you’re probably like us and you could watch paint dry together and make it fun. These are just a few suggestions to kick-start your Epic Girls Day.
We’d love to know how you do Girls Day. What’s your favorite thing to do with your bestie?
