With September comes football, falling leaves and Pumpkin Spice Lattés. In the Hollar household, it also brings the school year! My husband Tim is in his third semester of graduate school, and we both get excited when it’s time to go back to school.
Before every semester, we have a tradition. We go get coffee and head to our local Office Depot on Harding Road and get Tim all the back to school supplies he needs for the semester. Sounds fun, right?! Well maybe we have different definitions of fun, but we LOVE it. There’s something about new pens and a fresh notebook, you know what I mean?
As we were in Office Depot shopping, I saw a couple of fun things I had to get for myself. Office Depot has an exclusive brand of fashion items that showcase back to school trends like reversible sequins, faux fur, vintage floral and palms on essential items like notebooks, binders and pencil pouches. I knew when I saw these supplies that I needed to have some fun and get some back to school supplies for myself. See what I picked out below!
Back To School Supplies:
The first thing I saw was the Office Depot® Brand Faux Fur Pencil Pouch. Currently, all my pens live in the bottom of my purse in a deep abyss. I can never find a pen when I need it! Well not anymore. Use this pencil pouch to keep pens and pencils neatly stored and organized so you can jot down names, numbers and other contact information without delay!
You can’t have a pencil pouch without pens! The TUL® Brights Gel Pens are limited-edition pens that feature ink which flows smoothly from the barrel, helping ensure precise, balanced writing. The TUL pens offer quick-drying ink to prevent smearing and smudging and resist fading over time. I love my cursive and write thank you notes to brands a lot, the quick-drying ink is a game changer for me!
Now you have a pencil pouch and the pens, a notebook (or two) is next!
Another Office Depot exclusive is the brand TUL. My blue TUL® Notebook is helping me stay organized with work, but I could see it being so helpful for a college student! Take great notes, make a to-do list and keep on top of deadlines for projects and other assignments to make sure your semester runs as smoothly as possible.
Another fun find was the Office Depot® Brand Reversible Sequin Notebook. This fun rainbow is the best accessory and fits perfectly in my purse. The college-ruled pages help me sort out memos and take notes on the go!
My final item, it completely unrelated for going back to school, unless you’re a traveler like me or live in a dorm. It’s the See Jane Work® Going Places Hot Tools Pouch in navy stripe. Whether you’re a college girl on the go or a jet-setter you need a place for hot items, this pouch is designed to hold a warm curling iron or hair straightener and comes with a strap to allow for easy hanging.
I’m telling you, I saw so many cute things in Office Depot that I wasn’t expecting. I’m surprised I didn’t leave with half the store!
Office Depot and OfficeMax are offering low prices all summer long on a great selection of top-brand school supplies. If you want some cute back to school supplies for yourself, check out Office Depot for yourself and do a little online shopping.
Make sure you’re also following them on Instagram for dorm room inspiration and much more!

School supply shopping is one of my favorite times of the year! So excited to check out all that Office Depot has!
I obsess over everything at office depot!! I always loved going back to school and shopping for supplies! Now I just go and stare and all of the colorful pens I want!
I love their organizing section! I got some really cute stuff for my desk at Office Depot!
I actually use to love going back to school shopping at Office Depot back when I was still in school. Now, I’m looking forward to going back to school shopping with my son as he starts preschool this year.
