Mastering the Staycation, Tailgate Style

So you didn't get to hit up the Caribbean this spring break, huh? Stuck in Iowa City? No worries, here at Tailgate we're here to help you master the art of a staycation in style. Instead of being bummed that your besties are working on their tan in a bikini, you get to relax and take the week off in IC, and really, is there anything better than that? We may not have beaches or or sand volleyball, but there are a few things to do this spring break, so long as you do them in your Tailgate best of course!

Your first stop, needs to be Tailgate! Where else would you go for your spring break essentials? Just like you, we're spending our spring break in Iowa City, and we're here to help you get your look just right for your staycation!

Once you're staycation ready, it's time to hit up the Pentacrest when it's not crawling with students! Take the time to enjoy the scenery of Iowa City without rushing off to class or work, we think you'll find it's quite beautiful. Sometimes it's hard to remember that Iowa City has such a historic feeling when we're all running late and trying to make it to lecture on time or to the coffee shop before our shift at work. So use spring break to embrace this amazing town we live in! And look cute doing it!

Next up is rubbing that big brain for some luck in your life! The legend in IC says that "The Brain" gives students the luck they need to ace their classes, and after midterms the last couple weeks, most of us could probably use that bit of luck! The brain is a great place to relax and pull out that book you haven't had time to read yet. You never know who you might see though, so you have to look fashion forward!

Lastly, dance like no one's watching... Because no one is! Your roommate is off soaking up the sun in Cancun, which means this is your time to be sing like you're the winner of The Voice and dance like you should be on Dancing With the Stars! Get on top of that vanity to showcase your moves, and for the extra feeling of confidence do it in your cutest Tailgate tee and Iowa apparel. It's spring break! There's no rules!

So there you have it! How to do the staycation right right here in good old Iowa City! Don't forget to stop in and visit us here at Tailgate so we can help you make this staycation a memorable one!
