We recently did a fun post on Instagram with our early 2000s purse must-haves. Although some of our team members were in diapers back then (!), most of us were walking our high school hallways and college campuses, toting our laptops and textbooks from class to class as we blasted The Fray in our iPods and stashed Lip Smackers in every pocket. 

There’s something about the back-to-school buzz that still gets us: fresh notebooks, a reset routine, and of course, the chance to put together a new look. So, in the spirit of sharpened pencils and clean slates, here’s what we would wear and toss in our bags if we were heading back to campus this month.

What We Wear

Who doesn’t love the nostalgia of back-to-school shopping? Here’s what is filling our carts this month:

What We Toss in Our Bags

Longchamp Tote Bag

Everyone on our team has carried this bag at one point in time. The Longchamp Le Pliage Original Tote Bag works for all stages of life, and it’s been our go-to bag since we filled it with books and schlepped across campus. Now, we carry it to our favorite coffee shop for a morning filled with iced coffee and content creation.

Cuyana System Laptop Sleeve

This laptop sleeve is the perfect balance of form and function. Designed with sleek sophistication, it’s stylish enough to carry solo for meetings but protective enough to slip into your favorite tote without a second thought. For a personal touch, add your monogram (we can never say no to a monogram). It’s thoughtfully crafted to complement your day, wherever it takes you.

LoveHandle Phone Grip

We’ve always struggled to find a phone case that does it all — until now. Meet the LoveHandle PRO for MagSafe – Suction. With built-in magnets and suction cups, it mounts effortlessly to mirrors, windows, or metal surfaces for hands-free convenience. The two-way kickstand props your phone up in portrait or landscape, while the swappable strap adds a fun, personal touch. The best part? It attaches to any case using a magsafe ring. It’s the stylish sidekick your phone’s been waiting for.

Navy Linen Journal

Simplified is one of our go-to brands when it comes to pretty planners, notebooks, calendars, and desk accessories. This beautiful journal immediately caught our eye. It’s easy to pop in our bag so you’re always ready to jot down notes from a client meeting or brainstorm big ideas for your next social media campaign.

Don’t forget to keep a favorite pen handy too! Our team can’t stop raving about this colorful set
