Recap. Days 1-15.

Whoa. That's a lot of me.

I think I've done just okay so far this challenge. I feel like I haven't done much remixing yet.... just worn my basic items in basic ways. Hopefully over the next couple of weeks, I do a little more layering and mixing and matching that is more outside the my box.

I'm actually sort of sad it is halfway over... I've still got a bunch of ideas for some items (striped shirt, denim button down, I'm lookin' at you), but only have thirteen days left now. Boo. And I actually have a few items I haven't worn at all yet! My sequin skirt, black heels, white sweater dress and black velvet jacket haven't even seen the light of day. How sad. To my defense, they are all 'night' pieces, and I have been spending a lot of Saturday nights in front of the TV. Not very glamorous.

What have I learned?

  • Visiting Forever 21 and Target and not buying anything is almost impossible for me. It's like a habit. 
  • I actually really like my clothes. 
  • When I start wearing a necklace I like.... I ignore everything else. I've worn that silver heart necklace more in the past two weeks than I have in months. 
  • Heels are overrated. 
  • I need a haircut. 
  • I need to go tanning. 
  • I need a tripod and/or a nicer camera. 
  • I need to decorate my house. 
  • Laundry sucks.

Oh man, trust me- you're outfits are much more 'out of the box' than mine. I really need to step it up! I especially like that pink ruffle top- cute!

Thanks! I have this weird obsession with getting blousey tops like that. I guess because the work alone (more frilly, romantic) or under sweaters/cargidans (more conservative, polished). I seriously have too many to count...

First, HEELS ARE OVERRATED. Who the hell are you Miss Danielle? The only girl who wore heels to the bar in 6 inches of snow and ice.

Also, you don't need to go tanning or decorate your house. Both you and your house look great.
