Friday Favorites: Back to School Supplies

I know thinking about summer ending and the school year beginning is always a bit of drag but we have entered that sweet spot of the late summer when that impending doom is momentarily concealed by the pure joy of… you guessed it, new school supplies.

My kryptonite. A cute pencil case, colored folders, stretchy book covers, colored highlighters… and don’t even get me started on middle school when locker decor became a thing. I’m at the age now where I’m fully done with school, like I’ve already celebrated my 10 year high school reunion and am going on 8 years since college. But do I still walk around the Back to School section at Target? Yes, yes I do.

I’m not sure what it is about new office supplies — maybe the feeling of a clean start? or the creative and organizational potential? — but I know I am not the only one. So if you’re anything like me and have a passion for all things stationary, check out my list below of my current favorite cute back to school supplies for this season! Enjoy.


  1. Decomposition notebook

  2. Pen holder

  3. Supplies case

  4. Desktop clock

  5. Reusable sandwich bags

  6. Water bottle

  7. Highlighter crayons

If you are headed back to school this fall, I hope this list gets you excited for the year ahead. And even if you aren’t in school anymore, this is a great chance to treat yourself with new office supplies to celebrate the changing of the seasons!

Happy new school year. Xo Rachael
