Back to School Shopping at the Philadelphia Premium Outlets
#PhiladelphiaPremiumOutletPartner
Do your kids go back to school before or after Labor Day? The clock is on countdown for BTS (back to school) and my girls and I headed to the Philadelphia Premium Outlets this past week and just...WOW!! There is so SO much in stock, so many great stores, and so many great deals waiting for you to grab! Backpacks, lunchboxes, water bottles, sports gear, tees, denim, boots, uniform essentials, it's all there, so tick tok you are on the clock to grab everything you need to get your kids BTS ready!!!
The Philadelphia Premium Outlets are located outside of Philadelphia in Pottstown, PA and they include 135 premium outlet stores in an outside setting perfect for a prime shopping experience. Shops include brands such as Kate Spade, Bath and Body Works (my kids NEED to have their little hand sanitizers that hang from their school backpacks from here!), H&M, Tory Burch, Steve Madden, Polo Ralph Lauren Factory Store, Theory and more! So when it comes to back to school see the below stores we headed to to grab everything we needed to kickstart our fall shopping sesh to get us ready for the return to school!
Nike
We probably grabbed the most for fall from Nike. There is an excellent selection of current styles of backpacks, water bottles, socks, athletic shorts and tops, sweats and more. We grabbed a ton of gear for my daughter who just made her basketball team for fall...shorts and tanks galore. We also picked up Nike joggers and tees for my son. The sneaker selection is also top notch...tons of classic and trending styles. We could have spent the day in there!
Forever 21
I have to note for your older children (mine are 11, 9, and 8) there is an awesome selection of band tees, every day tanks, and sales on sales in this store. My girls bee-lined straight to the trending hair essentials for fall in Forever 21...claw clips, hair ties, and everything cute and Y2K looking. The sales racks are overflowing in this store, you won't want to miss a deal so take your time looking through it all!!
American Eagle and Aerie
We ran into American Eagle and Aerie...they had the Maddie & Kenzie Ziegler collab jeans! My girls were in awe. We then headed to Aerie for trending socks for back to school...smiling happy faces and athletic style are what's hot! (ps: their womens athleticwear is 10/10)
UGG
In UGG, we bought the bow tie back style UGGs that my daughter will wear the second the temps dip until spring. They had all the trends, the platform style, the low boots, the higher boots, shoes for boys, and even the clog style that is trending at the moment. Plenty to shop in there for the cooler fall weather!
Old Navy Outlet
Ok, let's get down to business. Old Navy has it all for back to school. This outlet was super stocked with $6 tees, TONS and I mean TONS of cute denim for kids, lunchboxes, backpacks, uniform essentials, and racks of sale items! We grabbed more athleticwear in here that was so cute...my fav were the athletic shorts with ruffle detail my oldest daughter grabbed!
Crocs
I cannot continue this post without mentioning how happy this store makes me. When I tell you whoever is putting together the display Crocs with the themed Jibbitz is seriously the most creative, I mean it. Lisa Frank Crocs, Orange themed Crocs, summer theme ones, Pokemon theme, and more, the display Crocs give you so many fun ideas! My girls put some together for my son complete with NBA themed Jibbitz and grabbed a pair of pearl/white for my daughter with what kind of Jibbitz? You guessed it, her basketball team with her jersey number. Get creative in there, because there is literally nothing more fun than personalizing Crocs.
Vineyard Vines
We rounded out our trip with a stop in Vineyard Vines. The best thing about this store is the fact that my daughters and my son all love it. When does that happen that all your kids love pretty much everything in one store? They always gravitate towards the tees that have the logo with the sport they play. These racks are bursting with all things Vineyard Vines. This store is perfect for nicer shirts or dresses and shorts your kids might need to kick off their school year!
There you have it! We made out so well shopping the Philadelphia Premium Outlets and we can't wait to get back for the next season shopping (Christmas!!!). You can find me in Tory Burch come November making my own wishlist, but until then runnnnnn to the outlets and get your kids in the latest stylesand have an school awesome year!!!!
