30 for 30 Fashion Challenge - Week 1 Wrap Up

Well I have been doing the 30 for 30 Fashion Challenge for one week now.  Its been fun and quite easy to put together outfits with just the 30 items I chose from my wardrobe.  However, I have a feeling this week will be more difficult as I struggle to come up with different ideas.

There are still a few things I haven't worn yet and I am even beginning to wonder why I picked some of the things I did.   Apart from yesterday, the weather has been cold and miserable - can you even wear white capris when the weather is like this???

Presumably, if you are Liz Hurley, you can!

The 'No Shopping' part of the challenge has been a little irritating.  This morning I went to the local shopping mall and normally I would take a peek in some of the clothing shops there which would be fun but I thought to myself 'what's the point, even if you see something you like, you aren't allowed to buy it!'.  Which I guess is saving me money AND avoiding bringing more stuff into the house - the primary reason I started this challenge in the first place.

If this is the first time you have read about my challenge, here is a look at the 30 items I have to wear and here is a quick run down of each outfit I have worn during the week.

My favourite so far is probably Day 2 - Urban Polo Chic (I am loving my new riding boots!!!).  Have you got a favourite, I'd love to know...

  1. I am going to ask something strange... But... in Day 2 - are the Dianna Ferrari Whiskey boots in the colour Simmo by chance?

  2. Awesome job! I am super impressed with the no shopping!

    Maybe you could layby if you were having huge withdraws- technically you haven't bought it ;)

  4. @B B, the boots in Day 2 are "Jackson" by Sandler. They in black, dark brown and tan. They have little elastic buckles on the side to fit around bigger calves like mine :)

  5. @wait until the sunset very sneaky hehehe. But I am determined to be good - I didn't spend 3 hours tackling my wardrobe to end up with MORE clothes!

  6. @MultipleMumyeh, Im a cheapskate :) actually its more to do with necessity than frugality (is that even a word?) but it just goes to show that a $12 t-shirt from Target can look just as good as a $50 t-shirt from Country Road or wherever....okay it might not wash as well but in my house white t-shirts have a pretty low lifespan as it is!

  10. I am SO impressed that you can do this! My mind goes completely blank if I have to think of anything more than a top and jeans- and I used to work in fashion. Kudos to you, I think all of your outfits are great!
