30 for 30 Challenge

Tomorrow I will begin the 30 day challenge with a wonderful friend and we will become each others photographers! This challenge goes something like this:

-pick 30 items out of your closet (they must be essentials, accessories DON'T count)!
-only wear outfits created out of those 30 items for the next 30 days (using accessories to spice up the outfits)!
- and therefore, continue to remix the 30 items and document the outfits! I will document on this blog...

This challenge will help me see and understand the items of clothing I already own, use my creativity to create new outfits out of existing items I own, and encourage my thinking to not always have that pressing desire or 'need' to go buy new clothes! Take a look at my 30 items...

SHOES! Here I have picked some heels, boots, and flats! I must admit adding the heels was taking a leap of faith since I never wear them. Last minute (after the picture), I added a pair of black pointed flats!

JEANS!!! I absolutely LOVE jeans and am always living in them. The shorts were thrown in there for creativity sake... But 2 pair of skinny's, a pair of straight leg, and a pair of flare!


These are going in my 'layering' category! While picking out my items, I realized that I am a very boring person. I have very few patterned shirts and mainly solid neutral colors! This might have to change once we're done! ;-)


CARDIGANS! Oh, I love me a warm cardigan!! I live in these in winter! I pretty much just picked my most neutral ones, so that I have the chance to spice them up with my accessories!

These final two items I am throwing in just as inspiration for change. I never dress up, but I want to start trying too! So here is a denim skirt and a dress. We will see what happens with these pieces!

Now that you've seen my start to this challenge, I hope it's inspired you! Inspired you to transform yourself while enjoying the things you already have! I can't wait to share this challenge with you over the next 30 days!!
