When it comes to back-to-school shopping, I tend to get my kiddo a few really fun, quality, statement pieces at the first of the school year.
Basics we can grab as she grows or needs them, but a rad pair of sneakers, a great pair of jeans, a high-quality jacket or a cute graphic tee… These pieces make getting dressed really exciting in those first few weeks.
Back-To-School Shopping With Bloomingdale’s: Make Getting Dressed Fun
The transition back to the classroom can be a little rocky at the start of the year, but when kiddos have something new to look forward to laying out the night before (haha, we always have good intentions), it often makes that next morning routine go a little bit more smoothly.
I’m super-impressed with the kid brands that Bloomingdale’s carries, and if you haven’t ordered from there in a bit, the process is really convenient…with free shipping always for Loyalists (a simple email sign-up!) and easy returns.
Bloomingdale’s has brands we love like Polo, Joe’s Jeans, Veja, Vineyard Vines and The North Face. And, gahh, check out the adorable Kodak instant-print camera! Such a fun BTS family gift.

1. Habitual Kids Twist-Front Top + Pants Set
I honestly wish this cute set came in my size, but it does come in little-kids sizes. 🙂
2. UGG Funkette Shearling Slingback Slippers
Cozy UGG slippers with a nice back heel strap, for little kids and toddlers. Also offered in black.
3. Kodak Printomatic Instant-Print Camera
A seriously fun little Kodak digital camera that takes pics and makes prints, all in one!
4. Ralph Lauren Polo Bear Cotton Jersey Tee
I have seriously loved the comeback of the Ralph Lauren Polo bear! My gal and I both have tees. This one is so cute!
5. Habitual Kids Low-Rise Slim Flare Jeans
Cute front seams and a great wash on these Habitual Kids flare jeans for big kids.
6. Joe’s Jeans Sadie Relaxed-Fit Jeans
On-trend straight cut and dark wash. Joe’s Jeans make great kiddo jeans. Offered in both Little + Big Kid sizes.
7. Veja Unisex Gold Sneakers
Uh, also want these gold sneakers from Veja! One of my top picks. Freaking adorable.
8. Joe’s Jeans The Jane Cropped Skinny Jeans
This cropped skinny jeans would be great for kiddos to pair with boots or high-tops.
9. Ralph Lauren Polo Kids Color Backpack
I mean, OK cute floral print. Love this Ralph Lauren backpack.
10. The North Face Denali Jacket
The North Face makes some of the comfiest, most durable jackets that kids actually want to wear. Available for little kids.
11. Ralph Lauren Polo Fleece Zip Hoodie
This Polo hoodie could be considered a basic, but these are seriously well made, and the blue is a beautiful one. It’s a little more upscale for your typical hoodie, which if that’s the only jacket they’ll wear, it sure looks sharp!
12. Ralph Lauren Polo Triple Pony Fleece Zip Hoodie
Another sharp looking hoodie, for sure! Classic.
13 . Vineyard Vines Performance Breaker Pants
Little kid + big kid sizes on these great Vineyard Vines performance pants that look like traditional khakis. We haven’t attended a school with uniforms, but I’d imagine these would be a great option for that!
14. Veja Unisex V10 Suede Low-Top Sneakers
These cute colors… These Veja low-tops could be their dress-up sneakers.
15. Dr. Martens 1460 Patent Lace + Zip-Up Boots
Honestly a pair of Docs is always a good idea for great school year boots. They’re cute but super-durable, perfect in weather, etc.
16. The North Face Teen Denali Fleece Jacket
The North Face fleece jacket in big kid sizes!
17. Got Bag The Roll Top Backpack
These Got Bag backpacks are so rad for teens/bigger kids and adults. Waterproof with welded seams, and they come in a variety of neutral colors.
Hope this has given you a glimpse into the fab kids’ pieces Bloomingdale’s has to offer! Good luck in those first few weeks to kiddos and parents.
