5 Ways to Make the Most of Your Summer Fridays

Pop in a pair of wireless earbuds ($130), and go for a run/walk/elliptical session — whatever fuels you. Instant good vibes.

Set aside one of your treasured Fridays to ditch an agenda of any sort and just relax. Whether it's reading poolside or even catching up on your latest Netflix addiction on the couch, a recharge session is always a good (and necessary!) thing. Make your binge session even more chill by lighting a favorite candle ($68).

Now's the time to visit all the hot spots you've been meaning to check out. A buzzy new restaurant is likely to be much quieter on a Friday afternoon than a weekend evening, so take advantage of the time off by checking some destinations off of your list. And if you don't have a list of your own, check out the Luxe guide for your city ($15-$20).

A midday nap!? Seriously? Yes! You deserve this. Need help "shutting down"? Give Lord Jones Royal Oil ($100) a try. An added day off is the perfect time to indulge in an afternoon siesta.

You know those personal "projects" that are always on the backburner? Whether it's sorting through all of those photos on your phone or redecorating a room, this is the time for it. Set aside a couple of hours on each of your Summer Fridays for the productive task of your choice. Purging your closet? These stackable plastic bins ($1-$11) are a great place to start.
