Thank you to Staples for providing me with product, free of charge, in exchange for this honest blog review. All opinions are 100% my own.
Have you noticed a lot of school gear is blah. Most stores offer character gear or really traditional monotone styles. It’s one extreme to the other. What about those of us in between? We want gear that shows some personality. We want color and patterns. Staples heard our request. This year, they are offering fashion-forward supplies, everything you’ll need from the classroom to your dorm room.
For my review, I received a JanSport Superbreak Backpack in Multi California Poppy print, a JanSport Roll Top Lunch Bag in the Multi Mountain Meadow pattern, a Mead Five Star Style Wirebound Notebook, and Cynthia Rowley Ballpoint Retractable Pens.

I wore my JanSport Superbreak Backpack last weekend. We were on a family road trip and did some hiking. I carried my wallet, a couple bottles of water, a few snacks, my phone, sunscreen, and the map. I had tons of room left over. The straps on the Superbreak Backpack are cushioned making it really comfortable to wear, even for long periods and hiking in hot weather. I was glad I decided to take my backpack with me.

Yesterday, I used my Cynthia Rowley pens. I was impressed with how smooth they were. The pen rolled over my paper with each word I wrote. I didn’t have any stop-and-go in the ink or ink gunk. My note was clean and legible. I also really like the gold casing on the pens. It looks so chic and sophisticated.
Thank you, Staples, for helping us go back to school in style.

Hello, my name is Laurie. My family and I live near the Oregon coast. When we aren’t at work, in school, or on the volleyball court, we enjoy traveling, cheering for our favorite sports teams, playing outdoors, and checking off items on our bucket list. We are lucky in that both sets of our parents, as well as our siblings and their families, live within an hour of us. We get together often to help one another out, celebrate milestones, and go on adventures together.

I love Staples and have found some really good deals there. Last week their 17 cent notebooks really saved me. Last year, I found some uniform tops there for around $3. Who knew they sold those? They had more of a selection at another store location, so it pays to look around. I also love the flower pattern here.

My daughter has a Jansport backpack and what great quality! She isn’t happy though because I told her I wouldn’t buy another until this one wore out.
