1. As a stylish mom of four, how does your personal style influence how you dress your children?
   They are all my mini me’s…they are an extension of my closet 🤣and I love dressing them all up in matching attire for the holidays!

2. What’s one must-have clothing item every child needs in their back-to-school wardrobe?
   A good cardigan for girls or quarter zip/pull over for boys!

3. Where do you start when it’s time to stock up on new items for your children’s closets for back-to-school?
   A few weeks before school starts I try to organize everyone’s closet. I remove the items that no longer fit and put them into a donation pile. Then I asses the situation and see what we need from there! I always start with the basics for everyone and then add cute seasonal attire as the year progresses.

4. What are your favorite pieces from Meems that you’re excited to fill your kids' closets with this school year?
   Oh my goodness I absolutely love everything on Meems, it's too hard to choose! But I’d start with some good undies for everyone and then pick some of the lounge sets/sweatpant options as basics, and then of course the adorable dresses and accessories for fun and special occasions! And the pajamas…such fun patterns and SO soft!!

5. What are your favorite Meems accessories or layers to help your kids look polished but stay comfy during the school day?
   Well I love the bows for my little girls … and the baseball caps are really classic and fun too!

6. How do you balance style and practicality when choosing outfits for busy school mornings?
   We always choose our outfits the night before! My oldest two like to pick out their own outfits and they do a pretty decent job at it! Laying out the outfits the night before is a HUGE timesaver.

7. Do you have any tips for keeping school clothes organized and easy for your kids to grab in the morning?
   I tidy up their dresser drawers on a weekly basis and show them where everything is so they know what to grab and when!

8. What’s your favorite part about getting your kids’ closets ready for a fresh school year?
   I love cleaning out their closets before the school year starts! We pull everything out and do a deep clean! I organize by size, season, and style from there - there’s no better feeling than a clean closet!
