GIVEAWAY ~ Back to School Shopping with OshKosh B'gosh!

By Anna Hall, Hickory NC Publisher August 18, 2016

When my daughter first started school some 6 years ago, my mother-in-law began a new tradition, one from her own childhood: taking Emily shopping for a brand new outfit for the first day of school. While there are many brands of kids' clothing to choose from, one has consistently been a favorite when buying new: OshKosh B'gosh. Reasonably priced and stylish, OshKosh clothing stands up well to frequent wearing and laundering. So, as in the past, we turned to OshKosh B'gosh again this year with back to school clothes shopping with our now 11 year old.

With outlet locations in the Charlotte area at Concord Mills and Charlotte Premium Outlets as well as one at Tanger Outlets in Blowing Rock, we always find the OshKosh stores to be well-organized, clean and full of great selections of the latest styles (for which you can also shop online). This year is no different! While Emily's school instituted a more strict dress code policy this year, we had no trouble finding lots of stylish pieces with many mix and match options. And the best part was that OshKosh now carries up to a size 14 so we were able to find all of Emily's favorites in just the right fit for our tall and slender girl. Pairing a great sale with a coupon, we got a fantastic deal!

Here's what Emily had to say about our shopping experience at OshKosh B'gosh:

School's back!! Better get ready, because you do NOT want to be the silly kid wearing the same clothes! I had to get ready too, because of the new dress code at my school. Thankfully, you can express your style, even in uniform, with amazing clothes from OshKosh B'gosh! Kids want to look absolutely adorable for that very special first day and what better way to please your inner desire to look stylish, have fun while doing it, and show your colors than with clothes? Thankfully, OshKosh has just the selection to please you! Carrying sizes ranging from newborn to a new size fourteen, it is perfect for babies, children, and even tweens. With adorable messages, patterns, and a comforting look, these clothes will definitely be at the top of your child's list when choosing the special outfit for back to school.

I was fortunate to have the opportunity to shop at an OshKosh outlet recently and immediately fell in love with three patterned blouses, inspiring tees, and a cute pair of slim jeans. Then came the best part: outfitting! I used my imagination, and in my head became a model on Hollywood, strutting down the red carpet like a peacock with his feathers in full bloom as I tried on the different styles. Modeling was fun and made for an exciting shopping experience. OshKosh also carries shoes, accessories, and underwear to complete the outfit. Now I will confidently stride into the classroom with fun splashes of color, joy, and excitement! Happy back to school everyone!
