Phew! Summer is officially over at our house and my big guy finished up his first week of school today. Thanks to the geniuses at our school district for making it a partial week; just enough to give them a taste of back to school.  To make the first week back a little special I created custom lunch box notes to sneak in as a special surprise.  Grab the FREE printable at the end of the post and checkout the latest Back to School styles.

I’m always on the hunt for quality clothes with a ton of style, but it’s often a challenge; especially for boys. I’m in love with this new-to-me brand Mini Boden.  The quality of clothes is astounding! PLUS the styles are classic, comfortable, and super fun; the perfect combo for Back to School styles.

I’m realizing as they get bigger they wear their clothes longer. Durable wear clothes are definitely essential with two boys, and wash and wear clothes are even more important.  Mini Boden is completely machine washable crafty with super comfy materials.  We snagged some of our favorite tees in super soft cotton, ultra durable denim, and my personal favorite colored cords!

Hailing from across the pond, Mini Boden is a British clothing line with fun prints and patterns in styles that last let kids express their own personality.  No itchy tags to deal with either, and a little British flare makes for a unique Back to School wardrobe.

A couple weeks before school I hopped onto Boden.com to get my back-to-school clothing shopping done.  With worry-free shipping, free over $49 (returns too), I got everything ordered from the comfort of my own home.  No fighting crowds for this mom!  I grabbed up some of their top Back to School products including some tees for my boys.  They also offer dresses and leggings for little girls.

This guy right here gets so excited to go clothing shopping, is quite particular, and just so happened to LOVE all the clothes I picked out for him.  I went with those popular styles that can take us from the hot summer when school starts all the way through our mild winters into spring.  He’s looking for a little elevated casual.  Something that takes a comfy t-shirt and jeans scenario and kicks it up a notch.  Mini Boden was spot on with all our fashion must-haves.
