Back to Skool

Hello Urban Women,

First of all a shout out to all the Urban Women who have inspired my return to the blogosphere!

There is nothing more difficult to manage than summer coming to an end and the thought of returning to school  (aka skool if you are one of the new generation). After a few months of perpetual pedis, pool side bbqs, and frosted tips it can be a real bummer to imagine sitting in your desk with a broken stylus, (I still don't know where to find a sharpener) and learning about World War Z.

I can recall a particular incident in my youth when I was ridiculed by the class president for wearing my jazzy new jeans inside out. Apparently I had misunderstood the fashions of hip hop legendz Kris Kross. Being the chic youngster that I was I quickly recovered by explaining that wearing your pants inside out allowed your full pocket exposure thereby mitigating the risk of being accused of carrying around a banana. Instead, I was genuinely happy to see people. You can probably guess that all the kids showed up to school the next day wearing their pants inside out! The pocket pool club was shortly disbanded.

Here are some Urban suggestions to beat the back to skool blues:

1. Go Jurassic

Almost everyone I know is inspired by the majesty of dinosaurs. Why not march that dino flare right into the classroom with one of these funky tale accessories. They can be paired with extra long dino toenails. Some say it's extreme, but I think it would be totally rad to get the tendons in your arms shortened to make your arms seem even more dino-licious!



2. Jazz up Your Skool Supply Kit

Not everyone can take a backpack (or emu feather satchel) full of school supplies to the next level-but with Urban Woman these easy fun supplies are at your fingertips!

Fun with Feathers Pens with Dangler Accessory


Miley Cyrus isn't the only one who knows how to twerk. These fab pens will make your booty shake so hard that you may need to use one of these colourful glitter feathers to replace those that got bounced right off of your nip tassel!
 
 
Creative Buttons will Jazz up your Denim Vest
 
Home made buttons have been on my radar since the 2012 school year. Obviously the ones pictured above have really inspirational messages to help Urban Woman touch the hearts of their peers. If you get your hands on your own button maker try out some of these totally urban messages:
 
-Live Life
-Lollipops are for Suckers
-Urban Mania
-Floss don't Brush
-Netflix has a one month Free TRIAL! Sign up now
 
Steam up Your Love Life

This miniature steamer is a must have for back to school. No one wants to be caught with a dried on ramen noodle in the locker room or worse yet a smear of mayonnaise from your latest deep hair conditioning treatment. Keep this mini steamer in your locker for all sorts of blunders! It also doubles as a mini facial station with the steam it blows off. Charge your gal pals 5$ to stop by and get their skin rejuvenated at recess.
 
I sure hope these great tips will help you all ease back into the Skool year feeling confident and cool. Here is to an A+ this year!
 
Until next time,
 
Urban Woman
