And So It Begins... My 30 For 30 Picks!

Ever since I decided to participate in Kendi's 30 For 30: Winter Edition and set some of my favorite pieces aside, I've had a difficult time choosing outfits from the rest of my wardrobe.

I wonder if that means this is going to be easy? Ah, famous last words.

I'm hoping this will help me to refine my style a little more so that I'll have a better grasp on what I do and don't like and I can avoid impulsively buying things simply because they're "cute" or "trendy" or "bargains."

I'm not sure why I used so many quotation marks. Totally unnecessary.

Anyway, without further ado, here are my picks for my VERY FIRST EVER 30 For 30 Challenge!

Five pairs of shoes.


 Six cardigans.


One pair of jeans, one pair of pants, three skirts.


Three dresses (check out that leopard one - NEW!!!)

Two jackets (planning on using that blazer for Everybody, Everywear).

Three long-sleeved tees.

Six tops.

So, there you have it. Since these are all of my favorites, tomorrow should be interesting picking out an outfit without them since the challenge starts on Tuesday. I'm ready to get started, are you?

  26. When you are looking for shoes, the choices can be quite overwhelming and it is useful to take advice from you who knows best before committing to your purchase.
