Gear Up For College with Office Depot

This year for back to school, I already had a good idea of what would work for me and what wouldn't. Now that I've figured out my study habits and how I like to take notes in college classes, picking school supplies is such a breeze. For adorable products at great prices, I headed over to my local Office Depot store with my mom and sister and browsed the racks to find the cutest things! 

Wite-Out and highlighters are absolute essentials for me to keep with my planner! I don't know how I made it through last year without wite-out, because syllabuses change all the time and the dates of events are always TBD. 

My dorm isn't totally finished being decorated, but I knew that I would want some black prints to hang up with gold washi tape. Not only did Office Depot have gold washi tape, but they had tons of beautiful patterns and colors that can liven up any space!

 Okay, how cute is this notebook?! I seriously flipped when I saw it in the store, and I'm thinking of sticking a big monogram on it and using it to take notes during chapter meetings. They're so jam packed with info and sometimes it can be hard to remember everything. Plus the notebook is in Theta's colors (I'm in love!)

I also needed a smaller pencil case than the one I used last year. This one is gold on one side and mint on the other, and it's the perfect size for pens and fun markers that I use for my planner! I also snagged the gold polka dotted envelope, which I'm going to use to keep track of my receipts at school.

This desk hutch from Ikea has been my life saver in terms of storage space this year. The back part is a whiteboard and is magnetic (so cool) and it has convenient shelves that you can adjust to whatever height you need. I'm keeping all my textbooks as well as some other notebooks on the bottom shelf, along with my handy stash of index cards, which are perfect for studying vocabulary!!  And of course, where would I be without my giant to-do notebook, post it flags and post it cube?

 I swear by Mead Five Star notebooks and won't use anything else, so I was ecstatic when I found these awesome printed ones in Office Depot. I love the color scheme, and I've been obsessed with houndstooth this season - I think I bought three things in the pattern so far!

Seriously, seriously go check out Office Depot and OfficeMax for all your back to school needs. I'm in love with everything I found and can't wait to put them to use! I honestly want to stare at that Greek Key notebook all day long *swoon*
