First Day of School Outfit...

Today is the first day of school for my kids! Yippee ki yay!

The best thing about the first day of school is your outfit. I remember in Junior High my mom telling me to not wear my new Fall outfit because it was going to be hot! She was right. I didn't listen I wore my Fall outfit and burned up the whole day. But I was cute!

It makes me happy that both my son and daughter love Converse as much as I do. Below is an outfit I made on Polyvore 2 years ago and it still gets repinned on Pinterest. As of today, it is my top Pin with over 95 repins and 25 likes. Today, the only thing I would change is switching the camo jacket for a plaid shirt worn around the waist. Also, if you aren't a fan of Converse, go with Vans. Love the crossbody bookbag, a welcome change from the standard backpack.

So, what did your kids wear to school on the first day?

First Day of School Outfit...

School starts tomorrow for my kids. Yippee! I'm ready for them to get back into a routine. My daughter had her First Day of School outfit planned a week ago. Below is a set I created on Polyvore. If I were going off to college, this is what I would wear. Not too flashy but still stylish and comfortable to wear around campus.

Shoes: Converse they go with everything. I love mine!
Jewelry: simple hoops and a great menswear watch
Jacket: Evenings are getting cool here in NC! Can't wait to wear my husband's vintage camo Army jacket.
Jeans: distressed boyfriend jeans
Shirt: White tee
Schoolbag: I carried a messenger bag when I was in college. I prefer them over a backpack.

What is your kid's first day of school outfit? or What would you wear on the first day of school?
