Hey everyone! I hope you all had a fantastic week!

So, it’s that time of the year again…back to school! Some people dread it and others can’t wait! I am one of those who can’t wait. But only for one reason: back to school clothes shopping, of course! Since it is that time of the year again I am going to tell you the back-to-school-musts! Want to go back to school in style? Then read my column! :)

Here’s my list of back to school clothing items/accessories you must get! (Note that they are not in order of importance; they are all equally important!)

1. The mini cross body purse. When you’re going back to school, you won’t want to carry your huge backpack plus a purse! So I recommend a mini cross body purse. (They look like cute little messenger bags!) They are hands-free and easy on your shoulders! Your backpack in already going to be heavy and painful, so use this cute little purse for your personal items!

2. The loose fitting t-shirt.You always need a go-to top when you can’t find an outfit, right?! Loose fit t-shirts are totally in and so cute! They are baggier than regular t-shirts which give you a totally laid-back look. If you are looking for a “lazy day” outfit for school, loose fit t-shirts are perfect because you can just wear them with a pair of skinny jeans or jeggings! You outfit will look simple, but not sloppy.

3. Cardigans. Cardigans are one of those clothing items that I seriously think will never go out of style. They come in so many styles and designs, so they can appeal to anyone’s personal style. I think these are soooo perfect for school because all your summer tank tops that you don’t want to ditch because of your school’s dress code can be worn with a matching cardigan over it! That means you just turned your summer top into a fall outfit!

4. Jeggings. They are a must! Need I say more?!

5. The floral dress with a denim jacket.This style combo is like peanut butter and jelly...or milk and cookies! They were meant for each other! The contrasting patterns and fabrics are so perfect for each other. The denim jacket will tone down the floral pattern if it looks too girly. Throw in a pair of sandals and you have your first-day-of-school outfit!

I hope these fashion tips help you as you are back-to-school clothes shopping! :)
