My progress


I'm a genius and I left my camera cord at Mike's place.

Since I'm unable to upload today's (well, last nights - I'll explain later) outfit, I thought I'd do a quick recap of days 1-6.

How is everyone doing so far? I'm doing okay I think, but it's hard to believe it's only been a week. I have had a few urges to shop but I've ignored them.
.
My biggest regret is including 2 jackets and a pair of jeans in my 30 pieces when thanks to this insane heat wave Vancouver is experiencing all I want to wear is sundresses. Another regret of mine is that I didn't own more sundresses at the start of this challenge. After wearing my one dress on day 5, all I want to wear are light and easy dresses. Oh well, knowing Vancouver the weather will change again and I'll be wishing all I picked was rain gear. (Actually I really hope that doesn't happen!!)
.
7 days down (6 outfits posted) and 23 days to go!
.
I have too many 30 for 30 favourites to name (yet) but I think I'll do a post very soon about all the remixers who have been so supportive to me and have fantastic style themselves.
.
Now it's time for to attempt to make up those hours of sleep that I failed to make up this weekend!

  1. I too wish I hadn't have picked 2 cardigans, 2 jeans, 2 three quarter lengths shirts, and 1 blazer!!! What was I thinking? It's always above 80!
    Anyway you are keeping it simple and chic, love it so far :)

  2. See, I was being stupid when I chose my items and kind of chose 3 cardigans... It's never under 100 degrees here.
    I don't know if it was wistful thinking or if I was just out of it... But a big mistake.

    I absolutely LOVE the dress you're wearing. I want it so badly.
    But I really like this challenge, because it makes you realize what you really like to wear. It's a good thing that we're not shopping this whole month, cause' then at the end,we realize what we actually NEED.

    Well, that's what's happening to me anyways!

  4. i think this "30 for 30" challenge is awesome. definitely more challenging that my "40 days and 40 nights" of not shopping haha. thanks for all your lovely comments melissa, i always enjoy reading them because they're not lame one-liners like "love it!" or "great style!" love what? lol c'mon be more specific at least! ok i'm going to stop before i go on a tangent in your comment section. I love the outfits you're created so far. i can't even pick a fav cuz i love them all. but i'm definitely liking days 5 and 6 because of the bright pops of colour. keep up the great work and i look forward to seeing your other 24 outfits!
