Old Navy Back to School Girls Clothing

Back to School with Old Navy {Review}

2 Replies

Back to School season has arrived and the official start of school is just around the corner – can you believe it? If you are anything like me, you are always looking for good deals when getting ready for the new school year. I love the back to school / fall sales. Usually you can find some great items at good prices.

As I have mentioned before, Lennox is in a year-round Montessori School but they still have semesters and the Fall semester starts in just a few short weeks. Since Lennox’s school require a uniform, we don’t have as many options on what she can wear. There is a good part to this and a bad. I love the fact that it’s so easy to just get her dressed and go in the morning, but I miss all the cute outfits!

Things are a little more relaxed in the summer, so I think we’ll have some back to school shopping to do very soon! So when I’m looking for new uniform outfits, one of the first places I check out is Old Navy. OldNavy.com has a whole uniform section for all age ranges, which is great! From what we have had in the past, Old Navy uniforms wear really well and match our dress code perfectly. The quality of a piece of clothing for a uniform is very important, since we wash and re-wash many, many times over the course of its life! I get so annoyed when I spend a good amount of money on uniforms and they either shrink a lot or fall apart! So far, Old Navy uniforms have passed the test!

While looking around, I saw that Old Navy has some new styles this year and they are priced really well! Polo shirts for $5, Pants or dresses for $10. They are having some great Back to School sales too! Some uniform clothes that I found that I may have to get are below:

Although Lennox can’t wear regular clothing to school most days, there are some super cute back to school clothing available at OldNavy.com – Here are a few of my favorites:

So when bringing your little ones out to get some new clothes for school, I hope you stop by Old Navy or visit their online store and check out the great new fashions and deals they have going on.

Montessori Update

Leave a reply

Before I disappeared for a few months, I wrote about Lennox starting Montessori school. Well, almost 3 months into it – she seems to love it, as do we! We have already seen a lot of changes and the things she knows how to do. It may be a coincidence that she knows how to do these things because of age, or maybe its the school — I guess I have nothing to compare it to! For now, lets assume the place we are giving our money too is helping out ;-)

Lennox seems so much more like a little person than a little baby/toddler. She wants to do things for herself and she does NOT like if you don’t let her try first! Most tasks, she will end up asking for help in the end…”help peas, help peas”. Lately, putting on her socks “sucK” (we need to work on that one!), shoes “schhhhoooes” — this is a daily activity that she likes to do on her own now.

She also has a thing about taking her jacket off right as she gets home – nothing bad about that — well if you have yours on too still, she will let you know and pull it off of you! Bossy little thing she is!

So other than wanting to try dressing/undressing herself, shoes, etc… she is eating at the kitchen table now rather than her highchair. We haven’t used it in weeks — i guess its time to fold it up and put it away! She can’t eat anything (even finger food) without asking for her fork.. you can use your imagination as to what that must sound like when she says it…another one to work on!! She would rather a cup than a sippy cup. She also is talking more and more in sentences. The best ones lately have been, “Mommy, have a seat”, “Daddy are you in the shower?” and “Daisy is outside”.

Lennox loves to clean up too — if she spills, she looks for a towel to wipe it up, if there is trash, she wants to put it in the trashcan, if there is laundry, she puts it in the hamper, etc.

So really what I am saying is, Lennox is getting way to big, way too fast!! She seems really happy when I bring her to school in the morning and she is happily working, playing or doing crafts when I pick her up in the afternoon. The best pick up afternoons are when she sees me, yells my name, grabs my hand and drags me over to what she is working on to show me. Just too darn cute I tell ya!!

Here is all her cuteness in her little uniform too:

Anyone else have experience with Montessori? So far, we are really happy with the decision we made!
