Back-To-School Shopping

Okay, let’s face it, it’s been aeons since I’ve set foot on school grounds and boy, am I grateful for that! I may not have been too thrilled at the thought of having to return to that school environment, but like most, I certainly looked forward to going out with my aunt for the shopping excursion to get new backpacks, notebooks, lots of mock neck tops (I’m particularly in love with this and this other style), crisp slacks and sneakers – all of which I couldn’t wait to debut in school. Here’s a roundup of what would be in my back-to-school shopping cart.

1. This anchor crested classic maritime pant is a great wardrobe basic staple to pair with sweaters, turtlenecks and blouses. Just imagine how many outfits that can be created with just this one pair of pants.
