Back to School with the Larkins

Kelly: Pink Tweed Blazer (Love the Schoolboy Blazer, too!), Striped Pocket Shirt and Calfhair Flats
Emma: Corduroy Jumper (We also love this corduroy skirt!), Striped Shirt and Pink Bow
Mitch: Plaid Button-Down

Without a doubt, our 2018 “Back to School” post with J.Crew Factory was my favorite fashion post from last year. (I mean… Emma and Noodle?! Come on. 😍) But this 2019’s might take the cake. Because whereas Emma was starting her half-day peewee program last year, she’s starting at our REAL, FULL-DAY PUBLIC SCHOOL in only a few short weeks! How is this possible?! Three years ago, I was pregnant. And now I have a kid who’s about to go off to pre-k?!

Of course, I’m sure there will be some tears (on my part) on September 9th. But it goes without say that I’m so happy for Emma, who’s beyond excited and ridiculously ready for this next chapter in her life. And I’m just so grateful that things fell into place for our family so that we could send her to our dream school with the neighborhood kids. This might seem a bit dramatic, but this is why we left New York six years ago. To have a family and a home to raise our children in and a great school to send them to… and to be happy. Ugh, guys. Sorry. Way too emotional this morning. 😂 I just feel very blessed.

Back To School Basics

Anywho, more on this soon. But in the meantime, let’s talk about where we get so many of our back-to-school basics and “hero” pieces for fall: J.Crew Factory! As I’m sure you’ve noticed, it’s long been a go-to for the Larkins because the brand carries timeless, well-made and affordable clothing for the whole family, and makes life easy. Even Mitch loves shopping there, and whenever I log into our account, I notice that he’s added quite a bit to our cart. ;) But yeah: we found SO much that we loved when we ran out to J.Crew Factory earlier this week to pick up some fall essentials, and now I feel like Emma’s really ready for her first school year!

Right now, J.Crew Factory is up to 60 percent off site-wide, making it the perfect time to get a ton of that back-to-school shopping done. :) In celebration of J.Crew Rewards’ one-year anniversary, members also receive an extra 15 percent off their purchases in-store, or an extra 20 percent off with the use of the J.Crew credit card. (Use code “BDAY15.” Become a J.Crew Rewards member here.
