the final picks (for the 30 for 30 challenge)

drum roll!
after much desperate debate, i present to you, the final contestants in my 30 for 30 wardrobe! from the top down...

 it's coming into spring where i live, so i had to be careful with my jacket choices. light but still warm? i went for a mix of both (and i just had to have the panda in there. daggiest, but softest ever).

 

yes, i know that there is a few shirts (and by a few i mean, perhaps slight overkill, but they're a staple ok!). i picked these in particular because i needed shirts that could be dressed up or down, so i can get multiple looks out of one item (kind of like a 30 for 30 cheat, or the subtle purpose of this exercise).

 

dresses because it is spring and getting warmer! (yay!!)

 

playsuits and cossies. loooots of love here.

 

jeans for chilly spring, shorts for warmer spring, and a skirt for dressing up :) slightly dodgy photo of the tights, but you get the idea. they are high waisted too :) fun!

i will most likely spend the majority of my time in my thongs (top left), because they are sooooo comfy! but for colder days i have my loafers. new sexy heels for going out, and clogs because i am so in love with them :)

wish me luck!

30 for 30!

I am going to do the 30 for 30 challenge!
I originally found the idea here at Itty Bitty Impact (possibly one of my most favourite blogs ever), and i loved the concept right from the start. the whole idea of the 30 for 30 challenge is to pick 30 items of clothing (not including accessories and under garments), and use only these items to mix and match your wardrobe for 30 days. Oh, and not buy A SINGLE new item of clothing either. Brilliant, hey?
Not only does it encourage you to really consider ways to reinvent the items already in your wardrobe, it also discourages spending on new stuff you probably don't need! (stuff that is often made by underpaid laborers, working in terrible conditions).
See what I mean, brilliant!
Now I've got to go through my wardrobe and pick the 30 items that I would die without.
I know my thongs will definitely make it in (for those of you who call them something different, that will probably sound odd. they're shoes), as will my denim short shorts (bring on spring!), and my leopard print knitted granny jumper (which is possibly the most worn item in my wardrobe, no kidding. it's cuter than it sounds), so that's 27 to go.
Tomorrow morning is dedicated to raiding my wardrobe and getting excited about all the outfits I'm going to get to plan!
