Its quite easy to begin to dreading the school year as back to school season draws closer. Because I mean who likes getting up early in the morning when you could be sleeping in? And who would prefer to spend their time sitting in a maths classroom rather then shopping with friends. But you will eventually find yourself sitting in a classroom at your school, no matter how hard you try to avoid thinking about it.
There are some things however that make school super exciting, learning new things, seeing your friends and new stationery! Today I will be talking about my personal back to school must haves!
Bags :
Bags are arguably the most important thing on this list as without them you would have no where to put your stuff. They can be expensive but with a sturdy bag you can use it for many years. Some of my favourites include ; the ‘Longchamp le Pliage’, the ‘ Fjällräven Kanken’, the ‘my mum made it puffer tote bag’ and lastly the ‘converse go 2 backpack’. These bags are all really adorable, and what’s great about them is that they can all fit a lot of stuff.

Pencil cases :
These days, pencil cases don’t have to be simple and ugly; there are a multitude of variations available to suit a wide range of aesthetic preferences. My personal favourites are the little ones that fit a lot and have cute colours. I try make my pencil cases last for longer then the full school year so its a good idea to get a well made one that wont break on you in the middle of class.

Water bottles :
There is nothing worse then going to grab your note book in class when you feel your entire bag is drenched because you don’t have a good water bottle. Its also very important to stay hydrated in school so having a water bottle on hand is great, especially if you do a lot of sport and a water fountain just doesn’t cut it. I have both the stanley cup and the Frank Green bottle (in pink of course) and I can confidently say they are both amazing cups. The Frank Green is more practical for school if you have to move around a lot but if you don’t mind holding it the stanley is a great option.

My favourite stationery :
Nothing can be more rewarding then taking good notes, it helps your grade and also might motivate you to study more. You don’t want your pens smudging and your paper ripping while your trying to study. I have listed (with links) my favourite stationery so you can use them too.
