Why the Right Backpack Brings Good Vibes Every Day

Why the Right Backpack Brings Good Vibes Every Day

Celebrating Your Incredible Parents: Gift Ideas to Show Your Gratitude on Mother's and Father's Day

In collaboration with adidas

The school year may already be in full swing, and with the end of September here, routines are starting to settle. Today I’ll talk about something small that continues to brighten my kids’ mornings—their backpacks. Read along as I share why backpacks are more than just school gear, how they bring confidence and organization, and the good vibes they carry into each day.

Why the Right Backpack Brings Good Vibes Every Day

For my kids, a backpack is more than just school gear—it’s part of who they are. The style, the color, and even the way they pack it all say something about their personality. Watching them slip it on before heading out the door always reminds me that a backpack can be a quiet but powerful boost of pride and joy.

And what I love most is how this small detail has become its own little ritual. Picking a bag that’s comfortable, stylish, and functional puts smiles on their faces and makes packing their essentials—lunch, homework, and sometimes a favorite toy—feel less like a chore and more like part of the fun. Even weeks into the school year, that excitement hasn’t faded.

Why a Backpack Matters Every Day

  • Confidence and good vibes: A backpack they love gives them a little boost of happiness and pride as they carry their things.

  • Organization made easy: Multiple compartments help keep everything in place—from homework to sports gear.

  • Durability counts: Kids are always on the move, so a strong backpack keeps their belongings safe.

  • Comfortable carry: Padded straps and lightweight materials mean no heavy, uncomfortable bags slowing them down.

    Tips for Choosing the Perfect Everyday Backpack

    If you’re thinking about a new backpack for your child, here are a few things to consider:

    1. Right size: It should fit comfortably on their back without being too heavy.

    2. Compartments: Sections for books, laptops, and smaller items make organization simple.

    3. Comfortable design: Padded straps and breathable back panels keep them comfy all day.

    4. Durable materials: Strong zippers and tough fabric withstand daily wear.

    5. Style they love: A backpack in their favorite color or design gives them confidence and good vibes every time they wear it.

    More Than Just School

    A backpack isn’t limited to the classroom. After school, it carries sports gear, art projects, or snacks for weekend adventures. With the right backpack, your child can move seamlessly between school, activities, and playtime—always carrying good vibes with them.

    Find the Right Backpack for Your Child

    Check out the adidas backpacks collection. Built for comfort, durability, and style, they’re perfect for everyday adventures—school, sports, or weekend outings. With so many designs, your child can carry their essentials in a backpack that feels truly theirs, spreading good vibes wherever they go.

      How to feel happy again | Happy in Pink

      How to feel happy again | Happy in Pink

      Monday blues don’t always have to happen on a Monday. Whenever you feel these feelings of stress, anxiety, sadness, or lack of motivation, you might be on a Monday blues train. But wearing pink could help you cure these symptoms.

      How? Read on to find out!

       

       

      Lately, when I feel down, I wear pink. Because of the color, pink is thought to have a calming effect, and it does make me feel a little uplifted when wearing it.

      Pink also represents compassion, nurturing, and love; that is why wearing pink can cheer you up without you knowing it.

      When I was younger, I was trying to avoid pink as I thought the color was too girly and I wasn’t that girly. I wanted to show people that I am strong and I didn’t need pink in my closet. Also, I could be happy wearing darker colors. To look back at how I felt then, I can see why I was so stressed out quite often. Maybe I should have worn pink sooner. Oh, well!

      Now, I love wearing all shades of pink. See here, here, here, and here.

       

      Pink also could WEAKEN your ENEMY! Say What?

      Sports teams sometimes paint the opposing team’s locker room pink to keep the players passive and less energetic.

      The Iowa Hawkeyes famously have a pink visiting team locker room at their Kinnick Stadium. The idea for the pink locker room was conceived by Iowa coach Hayden Fry, who had majored in psychology at Baylor University and believed that the all-pink room would mess with the minds of the opposing teams.

      See the below video on how pretty their locker room is.

      “People who are drawn to pink (or any specific color) tend to have pleasant memories of the color, while those who don’t like it may have negative or unpleasant associations with it.”

       Pink Psychology

      In color psychology, pink is a sign of hope. It is a positive color inspiring warm and comforting feelings, a sense that everything will be okay.

      Pink is feminine and romantic, affectionate and intimate, thoughtful and caring. It tones down the physical passion of red replacing it with a gentle loving energy.

      Studies have confirmed that exposure to large amounts of pink can have a calming effect on the nerves and create physical weakness in people. Violent and aggressive prisoners have been successfully calmed by placing them in a pink room for a specified amount of time. Exposure for too long can have the opposite effect. – Empower-Yourself-with-Color-Psychology.com

      Family Spring Lookbook| Picacho Peak State Park, AZ

      Family Spring Lookbook| Picacho Peak State Park, AZ

      Wildflowers are so beautiful that’s why we couldn’t miss the opportunity to visit Picacho Peak State Park this year. As Spring is here with perfect weather, we drove up one weekend to take our kids to see and learn about nature.

      Keep on reading to see all the fun.

      Spring is calling for wildflowers here in Arizona and I love that we live in the middle of nature and have a chance to enjoy all the beauty that nature offers every single day.

      Around this time of year, we always see colorful wildflowers on the sidewalk as we drive to get our groceries.

      Somedays we see a coyote crossing the road, and somedays we have a family of Javelina stop by our front door. These make dessert living life a lot more interesting and fun for our small family. 

      Because we are surrounded by beautiful nature, our family loves to spend time outdoors. Alida and Aveena love playing with bugs and dirt. They love to observe things around them. As a parent, we love watching our kids play and explore too. Not only my husband and I can bond with our kids and nature all at once but it is also a great way to teach our daughters about things around them as well.

      Now, I started to homeschool my oldest daughter, and our lastest lessons were about plants, bees, and flowers. My husband and I thought it would be a great idea and a more hand-on experience if we took our kids to see the wildflower field in person.   

      We went on a road trip to Picacho Peak State Park located in Arizona. It’s about an hour away from our home. The girls were so excited to see the wildflowers blooming. We captured some of the special moments and shared them with you in the below video.

      There are 3 types of wildflowers I am showing in this blog post, Mexican Gold Poppy, Coulter’s Lupine, and Brittlebush.

      Mexican Gold Poppy

      The Mexican Gold Poppy is an annual that blooms from mid-February through April and has a beautiful orange, four petal, cup-like flowers. The poppies only remain open during full sunlight.

      Coulter’s Lupine

      The Coulter’s Lupine is a member of a pea family and can identified by its palmated leaves. These divided leaves resemble fingers growing from the palm of the hand and move during the day to absorb maximum sunlight. The lupine’s multiple flowers rage in color from pale blue to violet.

      Brittlebush

      Brittlebush is a member of the sunflower family. The leaves are greenish-grey and grow to form rounded shrub. When in bloom, the leafless flower stems with their bright yellow flowers resemble a bouquet growing above the leaf area. Small mammals and birds, especially quail, dine on the seeds. produced by the brittlebush.

      The rules here are not to pick flowers or damage plants but we forgot to tell our daughters so the oldest one got one of each flowers as she wanted to give to her grandma. And the little one picked two flowers because she couldn’t help it being a one year old. We told them after the incident and they promise not to do that again. 🙂 

      Here are our outfit details:

      I never thought that I would miss going to school this much. I remembered I couldn’t wait for the school year to start so I could go chitchatting with my girlfriends. Even though I’m not in school anymore, I’m so happy to be able to put this back to school post together to share with you who are still in high school and college.

      In this post today, I’m sharing 9 back to school outfit ideas with some tips on how you can style each of your clothing items together so that you can get the most out of your closet. My styling tips will help you start your day, your week or even your month a lot easier and without any headaches on deciding what to wear to school.

      My pieces I’m wearing in this post are from my latest shopping trip at Kohl’s and they are from the SO clothing line which are available only at Kohl’s.

      Keep on reading to find out my styling tips and to see what I got!

       

      I

       am so happy that I have a chance to share my outfit styling cheat sheet with you today. It was so much fun putting this back to school post together for you guys as it made me realize how much I miss being in school. 

      Besides all of the homework that would give me a lot of headaches, I still LOVE to go to school to talk, spend time with all my friends and of course study some new subjects. But before we get off track here, I want you to get ready and get some back to school shopping going.

      Kohl’s has some amazing back to school deals going and it starts from 8/2-8/18. You will receive $10 off a $50 purchase!! So GOOD, right?  

      I went there and got a few cute pieces from their SO clothing line that’s available at Kohl’s, to share how I styled them with you here.

      At Kohl’s, they have everything from stylish denims and trendy tops to casual lounge pieces you can either dress up or lounge around in comfortably during this school year. I love that their prices and their deals are as good as their quality.

      You just really need to stop by your nearest Kohl’s or shop online at https://www.kohls.com, so you are sure ready for your school.

      I almost forgot to mention that you can even order online and pick up in-store. I really love this option as it allows you to save sometime looking through their variety of cool items. ?

      Back to School Outfit Styling Tips

      Now let’s get right to my outfit styling tips, shall we?

      Step 1: Shop for new back to school clothes at Kohl’s. 🙂

      Step 2: Bring all your clothes out, both new and old, then separate them into two piles. One pile for tops and another one is for bottoms.

      Step 3: Count how many tops and bottoms you have and write down the name of each of them in a table like the one below.

      Step 4: Pair your tops and bottoms together using the table you just created

      Step 5: Enjoy all your new mix and match outfits and get ready for a fun school year!

      Isn’t that super easy and convenient?

      These are all the 9 outfits I styled from my 3 tops and 3 bottoms I got from Kohl’s

      Outfit 1

      Outfit 2

      Outfit 3

      Outfit 4

      Outfit 5

      Outfit 6

      Outfit 7

      Outfit 8

      Outfit 9

      Now you can have some fun dressing yourself up for school by using the style matching table I suggested above.

      A few extra tips here that you might take into consideration when choosing what to wear are 1) You don’t want to mix two busy patterns together. 2) Matching two bright colors together can make a big scene at school. Just saying! ? and 3) After you mix and match your outfits using the styling table, you can eliminate a few styles that are in the #1 and #2 tips I just mentioned. 

      I’m sure you will be able to get the most out of your closet and won’t need to worry about what to wear to school anymore.

       

      Don’t forget to stop by at your local Kohl’s and start shopping for your back to school outfits soon. Their back to school deals start from 8/2-8/18 for $10 off a $50 purchase, and you don’t want to miss that!
