Let’s be real. When it comes to back to school shopping, calculators and crayons are not as crucial as cute clothes. And with the first day of school just around the corner, your kids need to be ready to face this new year of challenges feeling and looking their best.

Shopping for back to school clothes can be frustrating:

• Walking to dozens of stores
• Searching for sizes
• Fighting crowds of shoppers
• Wasting Saturdays in check-out lines

Why spend hours in department stores and malls trying to mix and match everything you need? And why stress yourself (and your bank account) when there really is a much better way?

Most parents take the wrong approach to back to school shopping.

They start with basics, like jeans and khakis, saving specialty items for later. This approach ends with a closet full of plain, boring items that rarely get worn because...yawn.

Instead, go straight for the trendy pieces you love right out of the gate!

Those bright floral capris, the perfect plaid button-down, the eye-catching backpack. Once you have a selection of back to school items your kids are crazy about, then it’s easy to add necessities like shorts and socks and shoes. Top off with layering pieces and jackets for the unpredictable fall-to-winter weather, and you’re done! With this approach, you’ll have everything your child needs - and loves - and nothing that goes to waste unmatched, unworn, and unwanted.
