Fashion Forward Fridays: 30x30x30 Finale!!

Oh my gosh. Why did I ever think this was a good idea!? If you didn't know, I was linked up with Sarah of Coming Unstitched to do the 30x30x30 wardrobe challenge and I cannot tell you how thankful I am to be done. Though it was nice to have a limited wardrobe just to guide me in the mornings and making picking things out easier, I am thankful that my closet space is back to normal and organized how it's supposed to be, rather than just these 30 pieces sticking out. I have to be honest, I hated and will never wear a good chunk of the outfits I put together during the past 30 days. But, that being said, I also came up with outfits that I loved and will certainly wear again, once I am no longer sick of these pieces of course. I have to say, the only thing that made this challenge really hard was that I did it during the middle of a Pittsburgh winter. Which, if you don't know, is the most unpredictable weather of all time. I like that my haircut came right in the middle of this challenge, but am sad that I didn't have a better way to photograph the journey. I'm also sad that I only got to wear my cheetah heels twice...total let down.

Some things I learned from this challenge though is that I really do rely on buying new things rather than remixing, which is a horrible habit. During the challenge, I also gave up shopping and that changed my perspective a good bit on other pieces that I have that weren't selected for 30x30x30. I have mentally come up with a nice mixture of outfits to wear in the future out of other pieces in my wardrobe. I also realized that I should start focusing on accessories, rather than actual clothes. I have plenty of clothes and while I thought I had plenty of accessories, I realized how little I actually like. So I will be donating some items and eventually getting some more quality pieces. Overall, not so bad. But I'll let you judge for yourself. Which outfit is your favorite? Which one do you think is worthy of a Fashion Forward Fridays mention?

 

 

Happy Friday!
