Back-to-School Savings Time with Carter's

I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Influence Central for Carter's. 

I received a complimentary gift card to facilitate my review and thank me for my participation.

Where does the time go? Summer is drawing to a close and I can hardly believe it. According to Facebook, many friends from around the country have already sent their kids back to school.... which seems crazy! Millie & Viv will be headed back in early September, and I'm honestly conflicted on how I feel about it. Half of me is ready for a quiet apartment where I can get some work done, and the other half is going to miss them desperately, especially since Vivian will be in full day pre-k. Who else is going to interrupt me in the bathroom? But I digress. School is coming whether we like it or not.

Checking out the new SeaGlass Carousel at Battery Park. Wearing one of her new dresses on sale right now at Carter's.

In these last remaining days, we're savoring what's left of summer while getting a little back-to-school shopping done at the same time. Carter's, which is one of our go-to shops for easy, coordinated outfits, is having a HUGE preschool sale (up to 50% off!) between now and August 31st. I love that I can shop for both girls at the same place, and will continue to do so for the next couple of years as their clothes now go up to size 8. Hurrah! A combination of cute, colorful, durable clothes that are age appropriate and affordable is a win win all around for me.

Another cute dress from Carter's!

But more about that sale... here are a few more duds I found on our shopping trip. Hello, 2 or more $6 leggings! Aren't these outfits cute? Love that they're all coordinated, which should help the picking out clothes the night before school (my goal!) a lot easier.

And check this out -- the good people at Carter's are spreading the love around with an extra coupon for back-to-school, fall shopping. YAY! 

Here's wishing... everyone a smooth transition back-to-school. We've already started trying to get the girls to bed earlier, in hopes that their first week won't be rough on the sleepiness front. 

Here's hoping... for happy tears as we send our littles off to school, where they'll no doubt be dressed better than us! 

Until then, we'll treasure these last lazy days of summer.
