Summer is in full swing!!!! I LOVE being home with my girls and going on adventures!!! So far it has been jam packed but the teacher in me has my eyes on September! There is an immense amount of work that needs to get done, and I’m one of those type A personalities that likes to get it all done in advance! From clothes to backpacks! I will also be going back to FSU in the fall part time to take a few courses I was interested in. My backpacks prior have only lasted a year. I have been on the quest for something functional yet sustainable. The backpacks from Day Owl were my first choice and the ultimate Backpack for college !! I knew my girls would love them as well…. They have slim designs that still have all the same qualities I was looking for! In general, every product that Day Owl has come up with has been top notch!
The biggest issue we dealt with this past school year was the Stanley trend. My girls love their Stanley's, but they would leak all the time! Reason being, they did not fit in the side pocket and would put them in the main compartment with their school supplies! Their bags were constantly wet and the things inside were getting wet! With Day Owl there is a special compartment that fits everything from a Stanley to a bottle of wine, perfect for a girls weekend on the beach hahhahaha best part, it is lined with water repellent neoprene, GAME CHANGER!! No more worrying about her books getting wet, and with Sophia and I having to bring a Chromebook daily this year, I'm extremely happy about this feature.
There are so many amazing colors over at Day Owl!! Which one is your favorite?!? I am patiently waiting for the sold out pine green color to come back in!! I have to have it!!! Sophia LOVES her Dusk Grey and Ari is going with the smaller version called the slim pro for second grade! Sophia is going into 5th and I've had to buy her a new bag every year as well! I’m done! I'm looking for quality now, and Day Owl is our go to! Not to mention Day Owl makes their products from recycled landfill-bound materials! I could go on and on about their mission but just google Day Owl and read up on what they are all about! Simply an amazing company that is truly making a difference globally!
Ari is a Tommy Bahama fan, as much as I like their clothes the backpack she chose last year just didn't hold up. We had zipper issues and the quality just didn’t meet the demands of a busy 1st grader! I absolutely adore the prints from Tommy Bahama and assumed when she picked her style she’d be good for the year… the ever changing minds of kids and trends can be quick! She complained that it didn’t go with certain outfits. Day Owl goes with everything! I love that as interest grow the girls can incorporate patches to their Day Owl bags this coming school year!
