I don’t know why, but I love … [Read more...]
Top Tween Style Trends For Back To School
This is a sponsored post in collaboration with JCPenney. In a couple weeks, my daughter will be starting her very last year of elementary school. Summer went so quick, but her heading to 5th grade is kinda crazy to me! I still see her as the tiny girl being dropped off for her first day at kinder. Back then, back to school shopping was easy! I just grabbed what I thought was cute and she would … [Read more...]
Getting Back In Style For Back To School With JCPenney
This is a sponsored post with JCPenney. Every year around this time, I go a little crazy trying to get everything done before my daughter’s first day back at school. Time to schedule doctors visits, hair cuts, get school supplies, get new shoes and clothes AND also try to enjoy the last bit of summer left. I always wished I could just do everything in one shot, and last week, JCPenney gave many … [Read more...]

How to be Ready Every Day for a Big Day #MiniMissions
It was the moment my daughter was dreading, and in a way, so were we. It was back to school day. Back to schedules, rushing to the drop off lane, preparing for spelling tests and homework. As much as I love seeing my daughter grow, waking up at 6:30am to wake the whole family does not make me jump for joy. But I wake up that early cause for even 10 minutes, we can enjoy an easy, yet nutritious … [Read more...]

Kindergarten, Letting Go and Creating New Memories #TimothyGreen @OddLifeMovie
I woke up just a tad earlier that day. I did it cause I knew it would be the only chance I could look at my baby girl, sleeping in her bed...just moments before she would enter the world of kindergarten. I know, I know. It's only kinder, not college, but it was the very "first" of anything that I was actually afraid of. When Sofia was born...I was elated. She was happy, healthy and I fell … [Read more...]
A Style for Mom’s Who Know Best- Back to School with The Children’s Place
