New Style Challenge

While E was out of town, my weekend involved thrift store shopping with my friend, Brook. She spent a year selling on eBay (for a living!) and has a great eye, so we spent the weekend treasure hunting.

As usual, I came home with more than expected.

I was so wardrobe-inspired by Kendi's 30 for 30 challenge (and so uninspired after it was over), that I decided to create a challenge for myself.

I'm committing wearing at least 1 of my (17) thrifted finds, every day this month.

You can see my picks in a Flickr set here.

The details:

4 tops

3 sweaters

2 pairs of shoes

1 pair of pants

2 scarves

3 dresses

2 belts

I'm not going to blog my outfits daily (they'll be posted in this flickr set)

but I'll blog a weekly summary.

Yesterday, I paired the thrifted Gap dress with the blue scarf, Anthro heels

The gray belt & sweater I already owned.

ps. I'm in nerdy glasses because I threw away my last pair of contacts without realizing I was out of replacements! I'm in glasses until I can get an appoinment with my optometrist (yikes)

I feel really nerdy awkward (not nerdy chic) wearing them at work today. Also, it's hard to take self-timer photos without glasses glare.

& here's today's outfit

it's a little casual & comfy on a rainy day.

Thrifted: boyfriend sweater, white belt, and blue scarf

(ahh, glasses glare!)

Have you ever challenged yourself with your wardrobe? I find it's the only time I can be creative! Hope you enjoy following along on this personal challenge :-)
