Back to School Event: The Children’s Place {review & giveaway}

⋅ 146 Comments

Next up in our Back to School Event, one of my favorite places to shop for the kids!

My twins attend the academy and require uniforms for school.  Several times a year, there are sales at the school with representatives from different uniform stores.  I don’t know if you purchased uniforms this way, but it is so expensive and the clothing is not very stylish.

We all know how adorable the clothing from The Children’s Place can be, but did you know they also sell school uniforms?

Keeping with their usual quality materials, the school uniforms are not only cute but very affordable.  Whereas our local uniform stores would charge almost $60 for an outfit consisting of a shirt and pair of pants, at The Children’s Place, I can purchase one for just over $20 with a coordinating headband, too.

Reagan is wearing the puff sleeve uniform top with the uniform pants and a cute jacket with embroidery.  Reagan loves hand bands and you will never see her without one.  This headband features adorable rhinestones!

The jacket is perfect for those crisp fall days and has cute embroidery on the front pocket.

Reagan is set and ready for school to start and I am happy I can get everything she needs, without breaking the bank!

The Children’s Place has all your uniforms needs, including shirts, skirts, pants, shorts, jumpers, outwear, socks & shoes and backpacks.
