Back to School Shopping at Walmart

August 16, 2020 By houseofhargrove@gmail.com

I cannot believe school starts next week.  You know the saying “the days are long, but the years are short”. . .that is how I have felt about this crazy period of time.  While I feel like it has been forever since my kids have been in school (because it has), the summer also felt like it flew by?!  Anyone else?  Anyway, next week my kiddos start school!  It will be virtual for the first few weeks (and then will be evaluated), but we are busy preparing over here.  I shared a couple of weeks ago that we went back to school shopping at Walmart and yall, my kids loved everything so much we went back for more.  They literally have been wearing the clothes we got there every day.  Walmart keeps releasing new items so we went shopping the other day and found even more things we love!  This Mama is all about it.  Cute styles, great prices. . .yes please!

Here are the cute new outfits we found.  Almost all of them are UNDER $40 and that includes shoes!!  Such a deal.  Not only do I love the style and the prices Walmart offers, but the ability to shop online and in stores works very well for me.  If we order online and it doesn’t work I can do a quick exchange at the store when I am picking up groceries, etc.  Super convenient and I love that they offer FREE 2 day shipping on most items over $35!  Which outfits are your favorite?

OUTFIT 1

BRADEN’S OUTFIT is around $36 (including shoes).

  • SHIRT: I love this polo shirt.  We bought it in the store for less than $7
  • PANTS: These jogger pants are cute and comfortable.  They have a working drawstring at the waist so you can get the fit you need.  $11.84
  • ATHLETIC SHOES:. . .yall. . .he is OBSESSED!  He can slip them on himself which I love!   ONLY $16.87
  • BACKPACK: He picked out this black backpack and it is ONLY $10.   Lots of storage and padded straps.

AVERY’S OUTFIT is around $25 (including shoes)

  • DRESS: She loves these types of dresses.  They are soft and easy.  Come in lots of cute prints.  You can buy them individually in the store or in a dual pack online.  LESS THAN $7 in store
  • SHOES: These shoes are so cute that I want them in my size.  Perfect for fall.  They have cute quilted details on the side and zip open so they are easy to put on.  ONLY $16.87
  • BACKPACK: There were so many cute backpack options she had trouble deciding, but ultimately picked out this cute Aztec print.  ONLY $13


OUTFIT 2

BRADEN’S OUTFIT is around $33 (including shoes).

  • SHIRT: I love this polo shirt.  We bought it in the store for less than $7.  I searched all over, but could not find this polo shirt or the one above online?
  • SHORTS: Great pair of navy shorts.  Have an adjustable waist band for easy fit.  You can buy individually in store or in a 2 pack online. $16.94 (for 2 online)
  • ATHLETIC SHOES: Same as above. . .he will be wearing these in all the photos.  ONLY $16.87
  • BACKPACK: Same as above ONLY $10

AVERY’S OUTFIT is around $40 (including shoes)

  • DRESS: She loves these types of dresses.  They are soft and easy.  This is a short sleeve option (the long sleeve option is shown in the outfit above).  Come in lots of cute prints.  You can buy them individually in the store or in a dual pack online.  LESS THAN $5 in store
  • JACKET: Great denim jacket.  Comes in a few washes.  Stretch denim for a comfortable fit.  $18.98
  • SHOES: Same as above. . .she will be wearing these in all photos ONLY $16.87
  • BACKPACK: Same as above ONLY $13


OUTFIT 3

 

BRADEN’S OUTFIT is around $35 (including shoes).

  • SHIRT: These are Braden’s favorite.  He loves the feel.  He has tons in his closet because he always wants to wear them.  This top has a hood and thumb holes which he thinks are the coolest.  It came in a 2 pack with a cute blue camo short sleeve top as well.  They can be layered or worn separately.  $15.50 for both.
  • JEANS: I love these jeans because they are slim fit with an adjustable waist and fit him great.  We have trouble finding jeans that fit because he has long legs, but is slim with a tiny waist.  He loves them because they are comfortable.  $9.92
  • ATHLETIC SHOES: Same as above. . .he will be wearing these in all the photos.  ONLY $16.87
  • BACKPACK: Same as above ONLY $10

AVERY’S OUTFIT is around $42 (including shoes)

  • SWEATER:  How adorable is this sweater.  There were so many cute options we bought 2.  You can see the other style below!  Soft, amazing details and ONLY $12.44  The sequin details is adorable and looks so much more expensive than it is!
  • JEANS: These jeans are super stretch and feel more like leggings.  Avery is particular about her jeans and says these are very comfortable.  Come in several washes and ONLY $12.94
  • SHOES: Same as above. . .she will be wearing these in all photos ONLY $16.87
  • BACKPACK: Same as above ONLY $13


outfit 4

AVERY’S OUTFIT is around $42 (including shoes)

  • SWEATER:  This is the same sweater as the one above, but in a different style.  How cute is this?!  I mean, it looks like a designer sweater!  Beautiful details like metallic threads in the sleeves and sequin eye details.  These sweaters are a must!  ONLY $12.44
  • JEANS: Same jeans as above ONLY $12.94
  • SHOES: Same as above. . .she will be wearing these in all photos ONLY $16.87
  • BACKPACK: Same as above ONLY $13


Hope you loved these back to school finds and found lots of great things for your kiddos!  Online is my favorite way to shop, but be sure to check your local stores too!  Lots of great finds in the store as well!  Hope you all have had a great back to school so far!

    Such cute outfits but I do wonder if you’ve had any issues with quality, especially in the shoes? I know that when I was younger and I purchased shoes from Walmart I had to turn around and throw them out after a few wears! 🙁

      HI Lindsay- Thanks. I have not had any issues. Braden bought athletic shoes there last year and they were his favorite pair. We also had a pair of New Balance, but he always wanted the Walmart pair. I actually bought a second pair because my son loves to wear them without socks and they start to stink. The price was so good it was easy for me to replace. We got another pair this year that I shared in my post and he has been wearing them every single day. Zero issues. I bought my daughter a pair last year and she also loves them and wears them all the time. We have personally had zero quality issues.

When designing our home the kitchen was such an important space. We spend a lot of time in there. I wanted it to be beautiful and functional. Here are some of my favorite features in our kitchen.

I’ve been on the hunt for faux flowers for my outdoor pots and I finally found a winner!!

🌸 comment SHOP and I’ll send you the links

I kept spending lots of money each season on real flowers and it was so much work keeping them alive!

I was looking for a better option and finally found one!

These faux flowers are
•BEAUTIFUL ....always in bloom
•ZERO MAINTENANCE ...no watering, fertilizing, etc
•BUDGET FRIENDLY ...these are priced great and you don’t have to replace them each season
•AND LOOK REAL. Some faux flowers are bad!! These really look good and unless you dig in there you’d never know they are faux

Each pack comes in a bundle of 2 bunches. Each bunch has 7 stems. You can plant 2 ways and I tried both. You can plant the bundle attached together and bend the stems (they are wired) to spread everything out....or....you can cut the bundles apart and plant the stems individually. I ended up doing that and thought they looked more realistic that way.  I ended up using 5 packages (10 bunches) for 2 large pots and 1 smaller pot.

I share both ways on IG stories so you can see the difference.

I also removed some soil and added floral foam blocks beneath, recovered with dirt and stuck the flowers in them.  I don’t think this step was necessary, but I wanted to make sure they were in there firm.

I’m so excited I now get to enjoy beautiful flowers with zero work 🙌🏻🙌🏻

Last year, Geoff and I added wires up this wall in a diamond trellis pattern. We planted creeping fig, but unfortunately, it all died this winter. I just planted Star Jasmine in its place so really hoping it survives. Texas weather is hard!. Thanks to a little AI magic I was able to create what my ultimate vision is. Fingers crossed it will look like this in a couple of years.

I just learned that May 3 is World Naked Gardening Day 🤣 I seriously can’t believe there is a day dedicated to this, but maybe lots of people need fences 🤷🏼‍♀️😉🌱🌿

Yall I recently discovered you could make fun art on ChatGPT using your own images for free! @ciarakenaston inspired me with her Beatrix Potter images and I did a deep dive and found you can do so many cool things!

🩵 Download ChatGPT if you haven’t already and have fun!

Upload an image. Can be of your home, your family, etc and then type in prompts to have it alter your image. You can play around with it and try all kinds of things but here were my prompts for the video

1. Beatrix Potter inspired illustration
2. Jan Brett inspired illustration
3. Vintage oil painting
4. E.H. Shepard inspired illustration 
5. Retro British cottage core style

If you do some be sure to share and tag me. I’d love to see them. Endless possibilities!!
