Back to School Style guide—sponsored by our friends at JCPenney. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
Somehow summer break is almost over and we are gearing up for back to school. Time to start shopping for all the things my little dude will need to make this year awesome. Moms, if you’re like me then you know the supplies list is pretty easy to tackle. It’s shopping for clothes that can be a headache.

Clothes shopping for kids of any age is tough, shopping with kids is even tougher. That’s why my first piece of advice is to shop online. Especially if you are shopping for a younger child. Who wants to experience the joy of chasing a child around the department store? Not me! Save yourself time and sanity by shopping online.
I love JCPenney because they have all the latest trends our whole family loves. I can jump online after my little is in bed and shop for everything we need, all in the comfort of my home. And often in my pajamas!
Back to School Basics and Kids Activewear
I stock up on all Brady’s basics during back to school—polos and button up shirts from Arizona, graphic tees and jeans. I love all the Xersion active wear styles and quality brand names they carry as well.

Backpacks for School, or for Mom!
He picked out this super cool camo dinosaur backpack. JCPenney has a ton of trendy backpacks for kids of all ages. I’m love the mini-backpack trend and ordered one for myself!
Women’s Fashion Trends – Camo Green, Femme Tops & Casual Wear
Of course I couldn’t avoid all the cute styles for women while I was shopping. I found a few fabulous pieces that will transition from summer to fall. How cute are these button-up tunic tops by a.n.a? They are the perfect mom-life piece to wear anywhere. Dress it up, dress it down, wear it to the playground or Sunday brunch. I bought it in white and blue.

How to Wear White Jeans
Deconstructed denim is still so hot and I found the most amazing pairs. Not only are these super comfy they have just the right amount of stretch to make them hug your curves too. I got them in white and army green. White jeans are one of my favorite go-tos for creating a stylish outfit day or night, all year round. You can pair a basic tee with a pair of white jeans and heels and look super stylish. Or wear a romantic, feminine top with white jeans to give the look an edge. Trust me ladies, if you don’t have a pair of white jeans you need to get these now.

You both look super cute and fun. I love seeing shoes besides tennis shoes on kids. So adorable!
Ahhh, back to school clothes shopping. I don’t miss buying uniforms at all. We are in a district with uniforms, and I hated them. Thankfully we homeschool now and my daughter gets to wear styles that suite her.
Oh your son looks adorable! I can’t imagine having to buy outfits for school and decide what style to have because we are lucky here in Australia to be given uniforms!
I love everything! So stylish and super cute! We are just starting our BTS shopping and looking forward to it!
I love the camo dinosaur backpack and the dinosaur button down shirt. My just turned 7 year old LOVES dinosaurs and that would go over really well with him.
I haven’t shopped at JC Penney in years, but I love these outfits. You guys are just so cute! Hope he has a great start of his school year!
These are great pics! JC Penny is a great place for Back to School clothing/gear. They have so many options and cute clothes!
I love the olive colored pants! NC mama over here, too! You are right, you can almost always find something great at JC Penney! Your little guy is so handsome!
I absolutely love the white denim! I feel like I can never wear white because my 4 year thinks I’m her personal tissue, ugh! Lol but these are super cute. And your little one is adorable!
Aww, your son looks so handsome. I need to pick up some of these styles at JCP for my little guy too!
Wow, what lovely photos!! You two are just too adorable!! Especially in your coordinating outfits – so perfect for transitioning from summer to fall!
Your little boy is acting like a pro model. He is too cute! I’ll surely check on JCPenney as I am so inspired by your post!
I love the matching outfits that you guys have. That is just too cute. Perfect for back to school!
I love all these outfits! The camo backpack is great, too. I think that’s what my son would choose.
These outfits are so adorable. I love doing back to school shopping for my kids and watching their eyes light up with new clothing to wear.
