Macy’s Back to School Fashion Event! Are You Going, Too?

My youngest went back to school last week, and wow, for a young man, he was pretty worried about his look! “Mom, I have a style and I need to stick with it.” My girls were like this, but my older son didn’t care about back to school fashion, per se, or too much fashion at all, so I was a bit surprised. A boy worried about fashion? The answer is yes, and from what I hear, he isn’t the only one!

Back to school shopping’s not for the faint of heart if you have a kid with a particular look in mind. I need three shirts that are black and white, four pairs of Levis, and wait, I can’t have just one pair of cool shoes, but I need them to be Nikes…and wait, I need two pairs. Back to school fashion is a big deal.

I get it though. I didn’t fit in back in high school, and I didn’t get to shop a lot, so it’s always been really important to us that our kids get a much more bigger budget and head back to school in style. You really do only get one chance to make a first impression, and if that impression helps boost my son’s confidence, sign me up to take him to the store!

This is where Macy’s comes in, but first, let me share that I belong to the Everywhere Society and Everywhere has compensated me for this post. However, all thoughts and opinions are my own.

Macy’s has always had a great selection of clothing — unique, fun and fresh — and I chose a beautiful dress there for my daughter’s wedding. Now it’s on the list for our next round of school shopping (“I need more shirts and shorts, Mom!”) and I am confident we’ll get all we need because Macy’s a one-stop shop for back to school fashion! I know we can find all he needs without issue; wait, one issue — narrowing it down to a reasonable amount of stuff, because it’s easy to get carried away there with all the cool things to choose from.

To get it all handled, we’re visiting the free Macy’s Back to School Shopping Party on Saturday, August 22, at the Rancho Cucamonga location in Victoria Gardens. It’s our ‘home’ mall and I’m so glad they’re holding this event there! Starting at 2pm, we can check out Lindsey Hughes’ favorite fashion styles for the new school year, picking up tips on what the famous celebrity vlogger recommends for this season’s trends. Lindsey started making fashion tutorials on YouTube when she was fifteen and has become very well-known with teens; she is currently studying beauty merchandising and marketing in Los Angeles. What a great success story, right?

Add in a DJ and mini-manicures, it’s going to be a great way to spend a couple of hours on Saturday afternoon. It’s been a long time since I’ve had to shop for a teen in high school, so I’ll take all the fashion ideas I can get, and I know he’ll like girl watching and back to school clothes shopping with other people his age.

For more info on the events in your area, check out the Macy’s website. There is even going to be a photo booth and if you spend $35 in mstyle lab, you get a free totebag! Macy’s is holding the event all over the country, and Lindsey Hughes is even attending some of the events!

I looked through the Macy’s site and found a few things I know he’ll like. This hoodie will likely be on our list! He likes red but he still prefers white, black and grey, and every year, we buy 3-4 more hoodies.

What’s on your back to school shopping list this year? Even if your kids have already gone back to school, you know the list of things they want or need never ends. I’m all for simplifying the process by going to one place where I can get everything. Thanks, Macy’s, for being that place!

As we pulled up to our hotel in Paris, our driver As we pulled up to our hotel in Paris, our driver pulled over briefly on this bridge across the river Seine. She explained to us that it was a very popular place for people to take wedding and engagement photos. We got lucky, traffic cleared for a moment and I snapped this shot of a bride and groom in their honeymoon car, just about to drive away. It was a beautiful first real view of this city of romance. I want to go back again, just to wander and eat and try more wines, no real agenda beyond walking and taking it all in.

Our Alaskan cruise was full of amazing memories, b Our Alaskan cruise was full of amazing memories, but this day spent kayaking on Chilkoot Lake was incredible. Cold, deep water. Snowy peaks. Glacier fed. Slightly terrifying but once we got in the groove, we kicked ass. 10/10 if you take an Alaskan passage cruise.

With the recent release of Guardians of the Galaxy With the recent release of Guardians of the Galaxy 3 in theaters, the Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure is even more relevant to me when I visit the park. Last week, the morning after I saw the movie, I was at my happy place and the first ride I went on was Mission Breakout. I got a kick out of the scene where Drax punches the animal in the face, and once you’ve seen GOTG3, you’ll get why. I considered going on it again, but I was on the Carthay wait list (highly recommended if you don’t have a reservation, particularly if there’s only 1-2 in your party) and I got my text to return within 15 minutes for my seat…and I really wanted the bao buns. I did head back later in the evening to watch a Marvel show with Black Widow by the Quinjet. Never saw Mantis though, was really hoping to get a picture with her. 

Don’t skip the gift store on your way off the ride. There’s a whole new batch of GOTGVol3 gear AND new Loki stuff! The purple Loki hoodie had just come out and I grabbed one before they sold out, even though I can’t imagine when I’ll wear it next here in SoCal. With the show coming out on October 6, I’ll wear it…with the a/c on if I need to. There’s also some new stuff in the Studio 17 store — if you haven’t visited it, it’s full of photo opps and gear for all your Marvel needs.

Disney’s Toontown has had a major redo recently, Disney’s Toontown has had a major redo recently, removing its iconic trolley — a photo opp of many memories with my Toontown-playing son — and adding a new ride, Mickey’s Runaway Railway. It’s a mix of animation, motion and music, and I LOVED it. Come along with me on a quick tour of the line-waiting area and part of the ride. Don’t worry, I didn’t share too much so you will still have plenty of surprises!  Say what you will about Disney-loving adults, I don’t care, I waited 35 minutes to ride this and I’ll do it again next time..and the next…and the next. Only warning: hold onto your hats, and ears! The ride is safe and smooth but there are some quick movements that may catch you off guard.

Getting a box from Melissa’s Produce is what I i Getting a box from Melissa’s Produce is what I imagine it would feel like when you’re a contestant on Chopped. What’s in the box? What can I make with it? Except without the pressure to get it all done in 45 minutes or less. Each box makes me be creative, and each item I’ve never tried pushes me a little out of my comfort zone to try new things. Whatever it is, we have so much fun! This box included Blue Potatoes, Baby Heirloom Tomatoes, Dragon Fruit (Yellow), Ojai Pixie Tangerines, Rhubarb, and a big bag of Fava Beans….which may be my favorite, because shelling them is relaxing and you can’t have too many fava beans and Chianti jokes.

Thank you @MelissasProduce! I’ll be sharing recipes soon. I’m thinking up ideas and will be making them all this week to post here in a reel or on my website. I’ll update later!
