Walmart – I have to say that Walmart impressed me with all of their BTS clothing options! They have a lot of basics to mix and match and their Garanimals line is so nice for the younger crowd. I happened to stumble upon their Free Assembly line and I was so impressed with the options to choose from! My daughter received a hoodie from the Justice line for her birthday, so I had to check out their back-to-school options and they did not disappoint!

Yes, we know it’s only July…we don’t want to rush summer either! But it’s never too early to start prepping for back to school. The school supply lists can seem endless and if your young ones are growing like weeds, shopping for clothes can be frustrating, to say the least. Back-to-school shopping can be exhausting and expensive, but Walmart is making it easy with everything you need for the upcoming school year at a price that’s definitely budget friendly. So shop away now, and then sit back, relax, and enjoy the rest of your summer vacation.

First Day Outfit

Picking out the perfect first day outfit is kind of like picking out the perfect wedding dress. Okay maybe not THAT close but still…the first day back to school is the first time seeing a bunch of people that probably haven’t been seen in a while, and there will definitely be photos taken (just one more!!) so wanting an outfit that looks good is understandable. This goes for all you teachers, too! We know you want to dress to impress this year’s students and we support it. Check out some of these fashion finds for a first day outfit below.
