I finally found time to put together my 30x30 recap.
It is fun to see it all together. Looks pretty obvious to me that I started to get the hang of it toward the end.
My favorites are: 8, 11, 20, 21, 22 and 27...I think.
I wish I could have a re-do on 4 and 18.
Some of my favorite items to remix:
Yellow Skirt
Gray Blazer
Gray Dress
After reading some other 30x30 recaps I'm realizing many people came to similar conclusions; some items I thought were versatile, were not, and some items I thought were difficult to pair actually worked more often than not. I tried to balance the number of times I wore each item, but there were some I barely wore once.
The best thing about the challenge - it forced me to get dressed everyday
The worst thing about the challenge - the no shopping rule stinks! I may have cheated a few times. Come on, this is wrinkled dollar, I can't pass up a good deal!?
What I'm taking away from the challenge - Accessories can make an outfit feel fresh. Also, be brave when pairing colors. If you believe, others will too.
What I would do differently next time - Avoid items because they appear 'safe'. Choose pieces that I love and figure out how to make them work together.
Honestly the hardest part of the 30x30 was taking a photo EVERYDAY. I definitely learned a lot about myself, that's for sure. Some days were good and some days were...not so good, but I did it and I'm proud.
That's that.
Tomorrow it is back to featuring items I bought with wrinkled dollars.
But before I go, a quick tip: Check your junk mail for coupons! Look what I found today.
bye.
P.S. a new wrinkled dollar spotlight coming soon...
I miss Value World.
