As I'm sitting in Starbucks, I just realized I have one week left of Summer break. One freaking week. I'm kind of at a bittersweet moment right now simply because I'm realizing my crazy last minute flights will be virtually nonexistent, but the great news is actually having a real schedule. As most of you know, my year has been crazy. It feels like I'm in this country one day, then this state the other. Truth is, traveling is exhausting. I love it, but I'm so happy to chill out for awhile.
Next week I move back on Carroll's campus, and let me just say I am freaked out. It's almost been a year since I've lived in Waukesha, only worried about school, studied all day, and seen a lot of my friends on campus. With that being said, I've been trying to think of things that will make this transition back a little easier! This year I have my own room (and bathroom) so that in itself makes me ecstatic! I've created a compilation of random things that may make going back to school a little easier and brighter.
1. My Agenda
Every year I get a new agenda, and I think this is actually my favorite. I just have a thing for Kate Spade, and I couldn't help but get their new agenda! I mean how cute are the gold polka dots? I was sold immediately. Last year my agenda was really fun and kept me organized, but this year I wanted something a little more classic. I also found a couple other agendas here, here, and here. I wish I could just use all of them, but there's always next year!
2. My Bathroom
Since I get a bathroom all for myself, I may have gotten a little too excited. I found this super cute shower curtain from JCPenney. I was actually really surprised when I found it there, but I just love the ruffles. I decided to role with the colors so I'm going to do white, coral, pink, and pops of yellow. Not girly at all right? I just figured when's the next time I'll be able to have such a cute bathroom so I'm going all out. I also got this card and this card from Rifle Paper Co. to frame and hang up. I am so excited it's not even funny, and it's literally a bathroom.
3. Back to School Fashion
This year feels just so different going back to school then any other year. Instead of hiding behind my boxes, I'm getting so excited to make the switch from Summer clothes to Fall clothes. It must be the idea of snuggling under my new Irish wool blanket, drinking a Pumpkin Spice Latte, and watching a movie that makes me want to bring out my sweaters right now.
Each Fall I try to get a few key pieces that will add to my closet, but will mix and match easily. I found this super cute blazer at J.Crew that I'm so tempted to buy, but we will see. I wear my navy schoolboy blazer all of the time in the winter, so this may be my next one. I also love this sweater that comes in five colors! I absolutely love all of my sweaters from J.Crew because they are so easy to layer with, they are comfortable, and are high quality. I am pretty I'll have the light blue one in my closet by the weekend to be honest. Oops. One last thing that I've been dying to get is a new pair of ankle boots. I absolutely adore these from Aldo. Gosh, can Fall just come already?!
Have any good back to school advice? I'd love to hear about it!
