The Wardrobe Essentials Your Kids Will Wear All Year Long

Summer days are dwindling and the school year is upon us. And we all know what that means, don’t we? It’s time to SHOP!

It can be hard to know where to start when back-to-school shopping for your kids. You may go to a store and find lots of great deals–only to come home and realize you bought your son mostly shirts and not a single pair of pants! But what if I told you that you could purchase all of the staples for your child’s wardrobe from the comfort of your couch…and for less than $150 total?!? We’re talking jackets, shoes and jeans included people! Sounds pretty great, right?

Well, without further ado…here are 8 wardrobe essentials that your kids will wear ALL. YEAR. LONG.

Let’s start with the girls, shall we?

1. Sharkbite-Hem Tee -$10.00
This is your basic tee with a little extra flair. It comes in three colors and would look cute with jeans or leggings!

2. The North Face Glacier Full Zip Hoodie – $30.99
Talk about a great price for such amazing quality! This jacket is lightweight but super warm…and comes in a few fun colors and patterns.

3. Dark Wash Jeggings – $17.00
You can’t go wrong with jeggings…especially at this price! Your kiddo is going to live in these!

4. Yoga Crops – $7.00
This is where I wonder, “why can’t I find yoga pants for $7?!?” These crops are perfect for those more casual days!

5. Chambray Button-Up – $14.99
Oh chambray…it’s the way to my heart! This shirt would look cute buttoned up on its own…or unbuttoned over a colored tee. It’s a classic!

6. Sweater-Knit Fit & Flare Dress – $26.94
Cutest dress ever, right?! It could be worn over tights or leggings to make it wearable all year long.

7. Revel Dakota Western Boots – $29.99
But really…do these come in my size?!? Spray them with some fabric protector and they’ll last your little fashionista through the school year.

8. Free RN Running Shoe – $52.90
Of all of the things on the list, these are the most expensive–but they’ll also get the most use! They’re on sale through August 7th, so get them while you can!

And now for the boys!

1. Florian Zip-Up Hightop Sneaker – $24.99
I don’t know about you, but I’m loving this new Cat & Jack line at Target! These awesome hightops look like something that would cost 2-3 times as much.

2. The North Face Glacier Full Zip Hoodie – $25.99
Just like the girls option above, this jacket will keep your kids warm AND looking cool! It comes in 4 different colors too!

3. Tri-Blend V-Neck – $4.99
We have these shirts in the the toddler size and they’re my absolute favorite! At this price, you’d better grab every color!

4. Ripstop Cargo Joggers – $20
Comfy pants that don’t look like sweats? The best of both worlds! If camo isn’t your thing, they also come in khaki and gray.

5. Slim Jeans – $24.99
We love H&M jeans in our house because of their quality. And aren’t these just the cutest? (Don’t say that in front of your son though!)

6. Under Armour Athletic Shoes – $39.90
Apparently all little boys love Under Armour?! And at this price, mom can love it too!

7. Under Armour Heat Gear T-Shirt – $15.90
See above about boys loving UA! You can’t go wrong with these comfy and “cool” shirts.

8. Chambray Long-Sleeve Shirt – $12.00
Did I mention I love chambray?! This shirt is so versatile and comes at a great price!

So there you have it…8 essential pieces that will get worn a LOT! Which means, you’re getting your money’s worth! And that’s all we can really ask for, right?

Enjoy these last days of summer and HAPPY SHOPPING!!!
