30 for 30: My thirty items

Friday, January 28, 2011

I've already worn most of the pieces I've selected... a lot. I know I took the easy way out by selecting mostly neutrals. (Hey, it's my first 30 for 30! I want to make sure I can see this all the way through). It wasn't too difficult to narrow down to these because they're my favorite items :) Some I would classify more appropriate for spring/summer, but I can't wait for the challenge to winterize them. Saying good-bye to the other items in my closet won't be easy!

9 shirts:

2) H&M basic jersey tee
3) H&M top with lace sleeves - gift from Elle
4) crewcuts boys' popsicle gingham shirt
5) American Eagle favorite shirt
6) Gap striped cowlneck T
7) Abercrombie & Fitch polo
8) Abercrombie & Fitch floral silk cami
9) Hollister Pacific Coast button down shirt

5 sweaters:
11) Old Navy cardigan
12) Abercrombie & Fitch cowl-neck sweater

3 jackets:
16) Express luxury stretch 1-button jacket
17) Abercrombie & Fitch denim jacket

3 pairs of pants, 2 skirts:
20) Express wide-legged khakis

2 dresses:
24) Plastic Island color blocked smocking dress

6 pairs of shoes:
25) Mossimo Desta ballet flats

  8. Good luck with your challenge, Cee. It is going to be a tough one. I'd like to participate too but I don't think I can do it (yet). I am looking forward to see all your outfits.

  9. @AubreyOhDang! - What do you know, you just picked out my favorite items :)

    @Anna Katrina - Definitely give rain boots a try. I find they're a must in rainy/snowy cities.

    @Lisa - Yup, I'll be accessorizing the heck out of these items (they're not counted as part of the 30). Don't be surprised if you think to yourself, "Where have I seen this outfit before?" and it's the same look a week ago with different accessories, lol.

    @Really Petite, @Callandra, @PetiteLittleGirl - I bet if you girls really wanted to do it, you'll be able to find a way, too!

    @Chelsea Lane, @SewPetiteGal - Thanks, I'm excited as well :)

  17. @JenlovesBal - Yup, I can only wear one of the 30 items I've picked out for the next 30 days!

    @Stylepint - Yay! So excited that you're doing this too!! Can not wait to follow you on your journey, too.

    @kileen - I'm hoping this will force me to wear dresses and skirts much more than I normally would. Fingers crossed!

    @lisa - Thank you for the tag!

    @Elle - I hope so too! But the worst is the no shopping ban. Must dig deep to find more self control :)

    @kimmie - So glad I now know 2 people who're doing this. We're going to have the best time!

  18. at first I was confused, what's 30 for 30? i'm guessing it means this is all you're wearing for 30 days? what an interesting challenge, this is my first time hearing about this, I must be out-of-date on my blog reading :) good luck, Cee! I never tire of seeing some of the items you picked too :)

  19. So glad you are participating in the 30 for 30 challenge! I am a little too overwhelmed with my closet to participate myself (this time anyway), but I am so looking forward to seeing your outfits.

  20. Love your idea of 30 for 30 days. I've too many repeated and unused stuff. Maybe it's time for me to pick my 30 as well. Thanks!
