Today's post is going to be showing you 16 dresses that I have in my wardrobe from the Australian brand Popcherry. I am a part of their VIP program (More info near the bottom of this post) and have purchased some of their random dress bundles which means I didn't know what dresses were coming until they arrived. There isn't every dress here that I own or owned at some point but all the ones I have taken photos with so far for my Instagram (Find my Instagram HERE). Let me know in the comments below which is your favourite dress from the ones shown below.

Popcherry VIP is a special program for customers who have signed up for it. When you become a member you benefit from Style Deals starting from $10 (and believe me they are good!) that are changed daily and weekly. You also have VIP pricing which is up to 40% off every single item (So basically every single thing is cheaper as a VIP) Once signed up you can pay $50 a month and that transfers into credit for the site to purchase whatever you like. You can choose to skip that which I do a lot as I will just pay when I want to buy something so there is no obligation to pay anything per month.

If you would like to sign up to Popcherry VIP then please use my link HERE. You get 15% off your first order and it really helps me out because I get $15 to spend on their site (Once you make your first VIP order) Then you can invite your friends and get the same deal. I am eternally grateful to anyone who uses the link as like I said it really helps me out. Let me know in the comments below whether you are already a member or whether you signed up through me. Thanks, everyone :)

Can you believe that Summer is almost gone and that it's once again time to get ready to go back to school? Personally, with five kids in various ages it’s a chore to get everything they will need yearly. However, I have a back to school list that make it all that easier for you to shop whenever your kid is going to sixth grade or to college this year.

Going back to school would not be complete without a good sturdy backpack. They come in different colours, patterns, and prices. One of my favourite backpacks is this backpack by Vera Bradley or this one by Open Sky both are not only functional but great to look at as well.

If you are not into lugging around heavy books, then why not check out this wheeled backpack from Everest? My oldest child (who is going to middle school) uses one all the time and it has  diffidently saved her from staggering under the weight of all those heavy textbooks.

It might be really hot right now (I know that the temperature is still hitting 90 degrees in my neck of woods) but once the first cold front comes in you will be thankful that you brought a good jacket. If your kid’s school is anything like my school, the A/C will be cranked up really high, so a thin jacket will come in handy right now.

I trend that I have loved in the last few years, is the bomber jackets. They really make me nostalgic for those old letterman jackets that the jocks in my school used to wear in high school. They come in various colours and patterns, my favourite this season has been this jacket from Charlotte Russé is practically a steal

In my opinion, a good set of notebooks are just as essential as a good sturdy backpack.  But who says that your notebooks have to be those old drab composition books and one subject notebooks? As  admitted notebook  junkie, I have everything from a small anime style notebooks  to big notebooks with bright bold colours and patterns.

If you are a serious notebook aficionado like I am, you can get a few custom made notebooks with your name or initials on the top of them like the notebooks from one of my preferred custom made online stationery store ‘Maya Designs’.

Athletic shoes are a must-have for every student. Especially, your children will have P.E. or will be involved in sports this upcoming school year. With my kids, they are always rough on their shoes, especially on their athletic shoes., Like most children, they are growing up like weeds, and it’s no wonder that why I replace their athletic shoes yearly.  And even  if your kid is going off to college this year, a good pair of athletic shoes will be handy when they have to run across campus to get to class on time.  

Brands you should definitely check out are brands such as Newton Running (adult shoes only) and Plae . I have been a huge fan of both brands for years  and you totally should give them both a try. .

I am a disorganized mess, and that hasn’t changed at all since I was in school. A good academic planner will keep them organized with their school work, which result in keeping up their grades. Just like notebooks, the planner you buy doesn’t have to be plain solid color planner. You can get them in different shapes, colors and patterns.  And again, if you want to get really fancy you can have them customized like the ones from Plum Paper.

In my opinion, a good set of pens is the most essential item on this list. You can’t get your assignments or homework done without them!  I usually write with those plain Bic or Papermate  pens. However, I found these lovely pens by Etsy shop MagicalKawaii they diffidently would add a bit a pizzazz to their otherwise dull school supplies.

When shopping for back to school clothes, shopping for new jeans is a must. My kids (especially the girls) have jeans in every colour from dark wash to bright purple. My little boy though sticks with the normal washes. However, jeans are so versatile and is diffidently a staple that everyone from children to adults should have in their closet.

The problem is that they are so many jeans to choose from. However, I really love these jeans from Old Navy and Venus.

This is the end of the seven essential things you need to go back to school. What do you items do you think are essential?  Let me know down in the comments. If you loved this post, you can find me at my blog ‘Dress Them Up’ or on my social media as Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and Instagram.
