I remember getting so excited each year as a kid to pick out new outfits to make my debut into the new school year and now that I am a Mom to boys its gotten a little trickier finding really cute boy looks.

I wanted to write this to inspire other boy moms or caregivers alike to create a fun stylish wardrobe for this upcoming 2018 school year! These are some of my favorites from this years Nordstrom sale and better yet all of these picks are under $50!

Shoes

We all know how expensive shoes can be for kids, I really liked how stylish and functional these options were!

Bottoms

Links: 5. Hudson Kids Jude Skinny Jeans 6. Stem Zip Jogger Pants 7. Nike Air Fleece Jogger Pants 8. Tucker + Tate Woven Jogger Pants

When I look for clothes for my boys I always go for comfort over cut and style. Jude always refuses to wear anything he isn’t comfortable in and I can’t blame him for that. Joggers and stretchy denim are major when it comes to bottoms. Also having a good selection of shorts for those warmer days is a must!

Tops

Links: 1. Tucker + Tate Print T-Shirt 2. Treasure & Bond Distressed Plaid Flannel Shirt 3. Tucker + Tate Print Foil T-Shirt 4. Vans Full Patch Graphic T-Shirt

I am really loving the trendy flannels and prints this season in the boys’ department. When you don’t have many options on how to style up your son’s wardrobe try and find subtle prints and colors he’s sure to love!

Outer Wear

Links: 1. Tucker + Tate Hooded Denim Jacket 2. Treasure & Bond Worker Hooded Jacket 3. Stem Two-Tone Hooded Jacket 4. Treasure & Bond Tie Dye Pullover

 

Although it’s still hot when school starts I’m usually buying Jude’s outerwear now when things are on major sale at Nordstroms. You can never go wrong with a denim jacket and better yet this one has a hood! I am also loving the muted colors, fluffy sweaters (if your son lets you put fluffy on him), and heavy canvas coats they make perfect staples for fall and winter!

Character Favorites

What kid doesn’t appreciate wearing their favorite character?! Although it’s rare when I find cute and unique items with Jude’s favorite characters I do like to make him happy with a couple pieces. Nordstrom has really cute prints I’m sure will make your kids happy!

Accessories

Links: 1. Adidas Originals Santiago Backpack 2. Munki Munki x Star Wars Fitted Two-Piece Pajamas 3. 7 A.M. Enfant Dino Water Repellent Mini Backpack 4. Tucker + Tate 5-Pack Trunks

I added some back to school accessories like these cool and unique backpacks I’m sure not many kids will be sporting this year and these briefs and PJs set because they are such a good deal right now on Nordstrom.com.

Hope you enjoyed my back to school picks for boys!
