Back to School Style

I took my children back to school shopping this month. 

Each of them got a new pair of sneakers and a new outfit for the first day of school. 

The Senior in High School could really care less about clothing. I lucked out big time with Stud Boy! 

The twins, who are still in elementary school, are pretty easy too.  Thing One likes everything on the clothing racks in stores and Thing Two is pretty particular but we can still find at least something that meets with his approval. 

Darling Daughter, on the other hand, well she is a breed all her own.  A real fashionista! And of course it is middle school which means there are indeed different rules!!!

This year, for Darling Daughter, it is all about the cami under the t-shirt and the coordinating scarf and of course the zebra striped converse sneakers to go with the skinny jeans.  She also just had to have the leopard print book bag too. 

But my favorite is what the girl will be wearing on her arm tomorrow.  I will make my apologies now to the middle school teachers, some of whom I know.  I am truly sorry that you need to look at this.

You will notice how I chose to stomach the silly bandz, the duct tape bracelets, the glow stick bracelet (that no longer glows), the peace bracelet, and the mismatched nail polish...and I'm not talking about the bananas or nectarines.
