We can't believe it either, but summer is drawing to a close. But the end of the best season ever doesn't mean we're ready to give ourselves over to the grind entirely. One easy way to infuse some celebratory vibes into a regular old workday? Send a party pack from Packed Party to a friend (or, let's be real, yourself). With occasion-specific boxes ranging from b-days to just-because days, Packed Party is our top pick for easy gifting right now thanks to their whimsical and slightly off-the-wall aesthetic (mini avocado piñata, anyone?!). Click through to see each of the boxes and mayyyybe hit "add to cart" for a mid-week pick-me-up.
Birthday Beb ($62): "Birthday Beb" is Packed Party speak for birthday babe... but you knew that already. This confectionery-themed box may not have actual birthday cake (too messy), but it does have edible confetti, which is kind of a big deal.
Yay You! Box ($62): New jobs mean Champagne cocktails, but if you're not within happy hour-accessible distance of your bestie, this box (complete with pink grapefruit Champagne bubble bath) is the next best thing.
Thanks (x Million) Box ($60): You know you're truly #adulting when you're sending thank-you gifts as luxe as this. This box includes indulgent goodies anyone will like, such as candles and fancy hand cream. Done and done.
Pick-Me-Up Box ($60): Who doesn't need a little boost from time to time? This confidence-bolstering box is packed with a bath bomb (#selfcare), encouraging notes, and even that aforementioned mini piñata. Tiny stick and blindfold not included.
You Pampered Thing, You Box ($62): Help your girls get their glow on. Sheet masks, a lotion bar, and other luxe bath time treats are the perfect companions for a day of major pampering. (We won't tell if you keep this one for yourself.)
Miss Ya A Latte Box ($62): Why do the best people have to be so far away sometimes?! Reach your long-distance girlfriends (or just your nearest-and-dearest coffee-addicted babes) with this latte-themed pack, and you'll feel like you had a Starbucks date with your BFF.
