Get prepped for school with these fun BFF dates

 

Summer's almost over, and soon you'll be back to your regular schedule of homework and extracurriculars. Preparing to go back to school can be a pain, but it doesn't have to be! Our tip: Everything is more fun when your BFF is involved...and the back to school countdown is no different! Here are five final-days-of-summer activites you can do with your bestie:

1. Go shopping together.

Shopping is one of the best ways to spend time with your BFF. Snag some new clothes that will make you feel confident for school and of course, make sure to pick out the perfect first day outfit. You can even buy matching outfits, like these adorbs t-shirts.

2. Plan a DIY sesh.

Spend a couple hours DIYing your school supplies. You'll have the prettiest supplies plus quality time to chat about school and compare your class schedules. Check out our fave DIYs here.

3. Have a pamper day to relieve stress.

We get it—starting school is stressful. Have a day of facials, manicures and relaxation to get you in the right, relaxed mindset before you hit the halls. Here's the GL guide to having the best spa day.

4. Throw an end-of-summer bash.

Once school starts, schedules will get crazy and it'll be hard to get all your friends together. Seize the opportunity to hang out with all your friends one last time by hosting a pool party or barbecue. Bonus points if you invite the cutie your BFF has been crushing on.

5. Do some last-minute studying.

Been putting off that reading all summer long? Now's the time to get it done. Whip up some tasty snacks (like these cereal treats)and get to work. You and your bestie can take breaks and discuss your progress as you go.
