Thanks to JCPenney and Collective Voice for sponsoring this post. Everything you need for back to school and back to college are here!

It seems I can hardly keep my kids in clothes they’re growing so fast! I think they’re at that stage where they’ve all hit a growth spurt and it’s hard to keep up. Luckily, JCPenney has all the best deals on clothes my kids love so that they look great and I feel great knowing I stretched my dollar. And with four sprouting kids, that’s very important to me.

This month as you get ready for back-to-school, restock your kids’ closet with items that will last them all year long without breaking your budget. In fact, JCPenney is having their End of Summer Sale (8/14-8/17) so you can really take advantage!

I’ve gathered a handful of my favorites that are all around $20 (or very close)! Grab some for your crew too!

10 Back To School Looks Under $25

Thereabouts Girls Flare Leg Jean

It’s hard to get cute girls jeans for under $25 but I found the perfect pair! Today’s style is all about the flare legs and my 10-year-old daughter gave her enthusiastic stamp of approval on these. Who knew so much sass could fit into one pair of pants.
