Lulu*s Back to School Collab.

today i am super giddy (like over the moon, run around the living room 10x, and cannon-balling into the deep end of the swimming pool!) to present to you another fun collaboration with my incredible friends over at Lulu*s! it's Back to School week on their blog, so they have asked me to showcase a couple of my favorite back to school-inspired outfits! 

channeling my inner school marm.

 ~ is that the school bell, i hear?! present and accounted for! ~

 jacket, backpack, knee-highs, and oxfords: c/o Lulu*s / nerd glasses: Urban Outfitters / dress: base exchange / lipistick (park): Radiant Cosmetics 

i am particularly fond of this outfit. it's sassy but channeling my inner school marm. i added the top knot to show that i mean business but its still loose to let you know that i'm also about having fun. this jacket is also my new favorite - it's the best shade of military green and is perfect for those chilly days of autumn. the knee-highs and the oxfords totally bring me back to early childhood days - and come on, who can resist a pair of neeeeeerrrrrd glasses?!

back to school blues.

 hat, backpack, sweater: c/o Lulu*s / boyfriend jeans: GAP / booties: Belk 

i don't know about you but i remember when mom and i went back to school clothing shopping, a new pair of jeans were always on the top of the list - so an outfit that includes a pair of comfy boyfriend jeans, ankle booties, and a cozy sweater with this funky, fun pattern on it is a win in my book! and what first day of school isn't complete with a brand new backpack. i actually owned a black leather back similar to this when i was in the 3rd grade. i loved it all year long...until the next school year, when it was time to get a new one. *wink* and that fedora...no words can say how much i am smitten by it. it screams autumn and goes with just about anything.
