Just 19 unhinged things posh girls do in spring that we pretend are totally normal

Uni is currently buzzing with Dior Lip Oil and rosé


Despite this gorgeous weather, it is in fact still spring. And as the sun’s come out, it seems like so have all the posh girls. Spring serves as a bit of a warm up to summer for us all, but no one works harder in this season than the girlies. It’s the season to defrost from the winter blues, pack away the Ugg Tazz’s and pull out the miniskirts.

But annoyingly, it’s also the season of exams and dissertations – and it’s pretty difficult to be an academic weapon and serve looks at the same time. But of course, someone has to do it and that someone is always the posh uni girlies.

Blume lipgloss in hand and Mui Mui glasses at the ready, the posh girls in spring mean business, so here’s everything you can expect from these divas.

A sunglass rotation

The posh girls use spring to trial their sunglasses collection and you best believe there’s a selection. We’re talking metal frames, a pair for holding the hair back and a designer pair.

Booking a post exam treat to the south of France

Whilst the rest of us celebrate in the pub, the posh uni girls celebrate in France, the south specifically. They’ve literally just got back from a ski season but it’s important to keep that passport healthy.

Putting grapefruit back in the Brita filter

God forbid we use cucumbers or lemons, Felicity. It has to be grapefruit and it has to be cut in full circles or it won’t look right on the photo.

Doing a ‘spring wardrobe clear out’ only to make room for more Ganni

Not much point throwing out half your wardrobe only to replace it with just as much stuff. But if it means last season’s designer gear gets dropped off at the nearby charity shop for all the rest of us, you do you and I’m far from complaining.

Planning May Ball outfits like it’s the Met Gala

May Balls are a big deal – you can finally get the nice pictures now it’s not sleeting and pitch black by 4pm, but the stress that goies into a posh gal’s planning almost makes it not worth it.

Talking about doing a juice cleanse, then just drinking rosé for three days

This is my kind of cleanse, I don’t need posh girls or spring to tell me this is a good idea.

Attempting to study in the park, ending up sunbathing with Prosecco

Whilst the rest of us cheers over chicken wine, the posh girls use spring to launch full Prosecco mode. It’s the season for bubbles and tiny floating raspberries.

Becoming mysteriously obsessed with croquet or polo for three weeks

Going home for a bit during the easter break no doubt means being thrust back into posh girl life – whether it’s shooting, netball or polo, these ladies are coming back to uni toned.

The swap from hot to iced oat latte

A monumental shift, if you ask me. This moment is more important than the summer solstice – it marks the start of spring and you can almost smell the vanilla syrup through the Insta Story.

Doing the girl dinner trend a year late – but it’s just three figs, manchego, and £12 crackers from Waitrose

They’re too busy making outrageous outfits work and making everyone envious of their easter tan to make anything heftier. I’m still jealous of this spread.

Organising a last minute charity garden party with free Prosecco and no actual charity

Free Prosecco is basically charity, doing god’s work x

Coffee dates exclusively wearing lululemon athleisure

I’m still yet to make my first lululemon purchase, I’m currently waiting patiently for the posh girls to dump their old kit at my local charity shop.

Telling everyone they’re ‘so over nights out’ and then ending up at a VIP booth on a Monday

You’ll see it documented the next week after the disposables are developed. So much for being locked in until diss season is over.

Matcha, ofc

They drink them all year round but the posh girls use spring to go ham on the matchas and I have nothing against that. Someone has to like it.

Turning dissertation hand-ins into a full photoshoot

Grad pics are one thing – the posh girlies treat dissertation hand in day as their warm up. Tripod: out. Photoshop: open. Instagram: spammed.

An aesthetic picnic/bbq

God forbid you touch anything before a digital camera photo has been taken of the spread. And the candlesticks? Yeah they’re just for decoration too.

Rewatching Gossip Girl and saying ‘this is literally us’ to people who are nothing like Blair

Post exam freedom no doubt means a rewatch and a month of posh girls calling their besties Blake and Serena, which is a reach apart from their financial situations being similar, of course.

Wearing silk scarves like they’re extras in Saltburn

I love that silk scarves are making a comeback. Get me in a neckerchief any day.

Gifting a Dior lip oil to their fave seminar leader as a parting gift

Posh girls use this gem all year round, but it comes out for good in spring. And the best bit about a posh girl is that they’ve always got spare to share.
