It’s Color, Style and Comfort for Back to School This Year
By Linda L. Esterson, Contributing Writer
I
t’s the most wonderful time of the year …
for school fashionistas, that is. While they
may want to hang on to summer a little longer, many youngsters eagerly anticipate new
looks for fall as they head back to school.
This year’s back to school trends, according to representatives from Carter’s/OshKosh,
feature throwback vibes. Many of the popular
looks continue to showcase outfits from past
eras coupled with multi-colored florals, plaids,
flare denim and 90s inspired graphic tees.
This season’s popular shades are expected to
be teals, purples, gold and indigo blue.
As important as the look may be, this year’s
styles are also emphasizing comfort. According
to Carter/OshKosh leaders, back to school outfits are all about offering kids all day breathable,
relaxed fits without sacrificing style.
Nordstrom representatives note that backto-school means fresh starts, a return to comforting routines and connecting with friends.
No matter the age, all students want to sport the
best style.
Here’s a look at some of the exciting new
styles from OshKosh, Nordstrom, Nordstrom
