30x30 Remix Roundup

It's that time again.  Time to carefully select 30 items of clothing (including shoes) and spend the next 30 days remixing them like a pro thanks to the ingenious idea of fashion blogger extraordinaire Kendi Everyday.  I participated in this challenge back in February and loved the remixing component (although by day 20 I was slowly but surely running out of creativity).  However I didn't do so great on the whole 30 day shopping ban so this time my wallet is on lock down and my credit card is being immersed in a block of ice (as suggested by my best friend). 

Things that I'm doing differently this time around? More shoes, less dresses and no jeans (which I really only wear once in a blue moon).  Yellow, bright colours and stripes are trending in my summer remix and I'm excited to put my styling and accessorizing to the test yet again.  Wish me luck and for all you fellow remixers, I can't wait to follow along!

8 pairs of shoes
(from L-R top to bottom) {Aldo; Fergalicious by Fergie; Pierre Dumas; Steve Madden; Aldo; Thrifted; Suzy Shier; Old Navy}

2 pants & 2 shorts
 {Thrifted; GAP; GAP & Thrifted}

6 skirts
{H&M; Thrifted; Le Chateau; Primark; GAP; Thrifted}

4 short sleeve tops & 1 sleeveless top
{Liz Claiborne; Thrifted; Thrifted; GAP; Mexx}

4 long sleeve blouses & 1 jacket
{Thrifted; Thrifted; GAP; Thrifted}

2 Dresses & 1 Romper
{Anthropologie; Topshop & Thrifted}

    So many shoes!!! :) I made the mistake last time of having too many pairs of pants so this time around, I'm only doing one-- besides I'm only doing a 15 for 15 hehe

    It made me smile to read that you put your credit card in a block of ice, mine is in one right now, too- although oddly enough, that scares me less than the idea of having to work with only thirty items of clothing for thirty days. I'm always impressed by people who take on this challenge- good luck to you, I can't wait to see what you'll come up with :)

One of my daily joys is reading the lovely comments you leave. It may take a day or two (or three, depending on how hectic life gets!) but I will stop by your slice of the blogosphere soon! xo Emily
