H&M’s Back-To-School Styles Are Here And We Seriously Love Them

One of the most underrated parenting experiences is back-to-school clothes shopping with our kids. Remember how much fun it was when we were younger to pick out new outfits before we went back to school? We went through racks and racks to find just the right pieces to reflect our personal style and who we had grown into over the summer. Now we’re helping our own kids find those outfits.

Getting ready for back-to-school isn’t just about replacing old clothes. It’s an opportunity for kids to showcase who they are, and thanks to H&M’s cute styles that start at just $4.99 — we can help them do that without busting our budget!

Oh, and about that old stuff that doesn’t fit your kids or is worn out? Well, through H&M’s Garment Collecting Program, you can drop off your bag of unwanted clothing that’s in any condition — even socks, sheets, or T-shirts — in the recycling box at your local store. They’ll be sorted by hand at the nearest recycling plant and you’ll get a discount card for 15% off your next in-store purchase.

Whether your kid is into prints or graphics, they’ll be ready to live their best school life with some of our favorite pieces from H&M’s trendy back-to-school collection.

1. Fleece Denim Hooded Jacket

Nothing says “back-to-school” like a hoodie and a jean jacket. You get both in this wardrobe staple that your kid will wear all through the fall, and then again in the spring. Don’t be surprised if they want to put this jacket on every single day. Good thing it goes with everything!

2. Red Hamburger Sweater

What is it about adorable food clothes that makes them so darn appealing? I haven’t figured it out, yet, but I know that my daughter loves anything with a hamburger on it, so this Toca Life x H&M sweatshirt is a definite yes for her. Pair with a pair of jeans or leggings and you’ve got a food, uh, fool-proof school outfit.

3. Hamburger Backpack

Keeping with the food theme, this hamburger backpack is a conversation starter. My daughter loves fun accessories that make her stand out, and this backpack certainly does that. Even if your kid wears a uniform to school, they can still show off their personality with a hamburger on their back.

4. Sneakers with Lights

Super subtle but outrageously cute, if they came in my size, I would totally wear these Toca Life x H&M tennis shoes! The best part about these shoes (besides the sweet all-over print) is that they’re super versatile. From dresses to joggers to jeans, these trainers will bring a little flavor to every outfit.

5. Printed Jogger and Sports Jacket

My daughter is at the age where she loves to mix and match her outfits. “Mommy,” she says, “it’s called fashion.” And fashion is what you get with this printed jogger and jacket set. Your stylish kid can wear it as a full suit, or you can break the outfit up and wear the joggers with a cool graphic tee, and the jacket with a skirt and tank top. Fashion, indeed!

6. Joggers and Hooded Sweatshirt

Just because a kid looks good when they go to school doesn’t mean that they can’t be comfortable. That’s why I’m loving all of the relaxed joggers and cool sweatshirts that H&M has for back-to-school this year—the blue cloud hoodie is particularly adorable thanks to a cloud that has a lot on its mind.

School is definitely about the books, but it’s also where kids go to grow and learn to express themselves. Take your kid over to H&M for some shopping before the school year starts and let them pick out a few things that represent who they are. While you’re there, you might as well pick up something to show off your style, too. You know, to teach your kid how to do it!
