Back to school time is officially upon us, y'all. I am SO excited about this time of year, and I hope that y'all are having a wonderful time at school or getting ready to go back to school. On today's blog we are going to chat about a couple of my new faves for college. I hope that you will love the things I am sharing with you on the blog today, because I have grown to love them.
1. Casio Vintage Collection Watch
Watches, in my opinion, are a timeless essential for college. We are so stuck to our smart pones, but sometimes that's just not a possibility in college. If you get test anxiety, having a watch on you during test time is essential so you can keep up with the time during the test. Many classrooms don't have clocks (or they are in awkward locations) or the professor may not give the time throughout the test. Don't depend on your cell phone or a classroom clock, bring your own!
I am loving this Classic Vintage Watch from Casio because it's gold, goes with everything, and it's digital. I can tell time with a regular clock, it just takes way longer than glancing down at a digital one, so I love that this one tells me the time easily. This watch even has a back light so you can tell the time no matter the time of day it is.

2. EZneeds
Let's chat about this website, it has blown my mind. EZneeds is definitely a site I wish I knew about during my freshman year of college. You can get SO much for such a decent price there. The best part of all? No membership required. Getting awesome prices without a fee attached? That's the college way, y'all.
If you spend $50 or more you even get free shipping, which is pretty awesome. They aren't giving you “free shipping” either, you know, the kind you get where you have to wait to get your products in 5-7 days? They are giving you 1-3 day delivery free shipping.
I picked up a variety of products from EZneeds. I picked up some things I knew my college self would probably LOVE: a pack of pens, a pack of Post-It flags, 6 boxes of pasta, a huge box of chips, a box of my favorite Milano cookies, and way too much Capri Sun. The variety of products on the EZneeds website is honestly staggering.
All of it came quickly and easily to my door once I purchase my products. Plus, as you can tell my the screenshot above, everything was very reasonably priced.

3. Sour Punch Share me! Bites
I love all Sour Punch products and I was so excited to try out these adorable Share Me! Bites.
These little candies are perfect to put in your backpack to bring to class or to the library. You can also share them (although I won't judge you if you decide to keep them all for yourself.)
The resealable bag really makes these candies for me because I don't have to finish them all in one sitting. I can put them back in a bag without worrying about any candies falling out into my backpack as well. If you are like me you have had that moment where candy was in the bottom of your bag because you couldn't finish them and they needed to be put away. That moment is icky, but you won't get that with these Sour Punch Share Me! Bites.

4. Viv & Lou Throw Blanket
Y'all, this blanket is so freaking soft. That is literally the first thing I noticed about this blanket.
Living in a dorm room or even an apartment can feel so cold. It's great to have some extra soft blankets around your room to snuggle up in when you are missing home. Literally the entire time I have been writing this blog post I have been snuggling up with this blanket. If you want to add a touch of home while you are living the dorm life, you need this blanket.
You can tell that the team over at Viv & Lou put a lot of time and patience into creating this beautiful blanket. These blankets also make a pretty awesome monogram accessory because you can get them personalized on the Viv & Lou website.
Here is a gif representation of me in my blanket right now:

5. BigAZ Sandwiches
You guys. These sandwiches are the bomb.com! I have never had a BigAZ sandwich before, but these things were everything. I had the following sandwiches:
- Biscuit Stacker
- Sriracha Chicken
- Kickin' Jalapeno Burger
If you can find these at your local store, you need them in your life. I wouldn't tell you this if it weren't true. Honestly, when I was done with all of my sandwiches, I wish that my package had generated more of these.
I could definitely see myself purchasing these to tide me over between classes or as a late night snack in college. When I ate these they actually filled me up which is always a positive thing from any item you purchase at the store.

6. Ludens Throat Drops
Being sick in college is actually the worst. I remember so often I would be in college, get sick, and have to go to the campus convenience store because I didn't have time to run off campus to purchase throat drops. These ones from Ludens are pretty amazing. They have an amazing taste and are perfect for when you feel a tickle in your throat or a mild irritation.
No one has time for a throat irritation in class or after you have come back from a concert during a school night. These Ludens throat drops will really come in handy while in college!

7. The Princess Saves Herself In This One Poetry Book
We all need a book that we can read between classes or to destress. Y'all, I highly highly highly encourage this book. I am such a fan of poetry books (although I haven't been reading them as much as I should, that's changing after this one though!) Literally as soon as I finished this book I went on GoodReads to see if Amanda Lovelace had any more books (she has one for pre-order, but not any besides this book.)
I finished this book of poetry within a day, and I know that it's a book that I will be able to go through again and again. Amanda's story is beautiful and haunting and complex and everything that I love in books.
If you love poetry and just reading in general I really encourage that you check out this book!

8. The Happy Living Planner
Every college student needs a planner in my book. We often tell ourselves “I'll remember that later,” but newsflash, you probably won't. Instead of chancing it, pick up a planner and plan instead.
The Posh: Happy Living Planner 2017-2018 is awesome. It features:
- Fun and inspirational quotes
- Awesome pockets to store random things like your schedule and flyers
- A monthly habit tracker to track all your habits like water drinking, pill taking, exercising, etc.
- Fun stickers to customize your planning pages
- Two-page spreads for each week with plenty of space to plan your days
- 18 glorious months of planning
This planner really packs a punch and I think you will love it if you are still looking for a planner to use.
