And here we go! It’s May 1st so it’s time for the big 30×30 spring challenge! I am joining up with Kelly over at Mrs. in Training, along with several other bloggers for this challenge!
How it works:
I pick 30 items from my closet to mix and match all month. That’s tops, bottoms and dresses! I didn’t include shoes because I only really have a few pairs of cute shoes so that wouldn’t be very exciting. I could have done necklaces but I only wear interesting jewelry when I go out, so I figure that’s an exception for a few outfits!
Things to know about me related to this challenge:
I work from home. Therefore, I do not need “work” outfits because I can wear whatever I want to work! So, a lot of my outfits may be a little more casual than some of the other bloggers! Something else you should know is that May is weird month here for weather! I did not include any sweaters in this challenge but I might have to wear one or two, especially the first weeks or so when temps may be up and down into in the 50s!
Here is what I picked:
Group 1: (from top left and clockwise)
2 dresses and a maxi skirt (grey dress- Jcrew, black dress- Gap, skirt- Jcrew)
3 pants (Jcrew jeans, Jcrew white jeans and Express mint skinnies)
3 shorts (both prints are from Jcrew outlet, white shorts from Express)
Military jacket from Loft and 3 t shirts- I love my Old Navy vintage tees and i knew I couldn’t go a whole month without them!
Group 2: Shirts, shirts and more shirts!
I grouped my shirts by type:
Long Sleeves(from left to right): Jcrew, Limited, Jcrew, Express
Short Sleeves top right: Target and Jcrew outlet
Short Sleeves bottom left: Jcrew, Jcrew, ASOS and Limited
Sleeveless: Jcrew, Express, Jcrew, and Loft
What I have learned so far:
1- I have a lot more white shirts than I thought!
2- I really need to clean out my closet and donate stuff I don’t wear or like anymore!
3- I have no skirts that I would wear, only longer (knee length) skirts that I used to wear to work!
4- I need to branch out in my style just a little bit! All my clothes are from the same 4 stores!
