19ish/30?



I wore this for running errands, Nov 26/10.
Thermal: Old Navy (not in my 30/30)
Flannel Shirt: Old Navy
Jeggings: Hollister
Boots: Uggs (not in my 30/30)

OK so confession time..... I made it until day 18.... but because it has gotten so cold in the last week (and I managed to not include any heavy sweaters in my 30/30) I have broken the cardinal rule of the 30/30... I have worn things that weren't in my 30/30 wardrobe. Please forgive me 30/30 gods.... for I have sinned and even though I am now confessing it, it's not something that I am going to stop doing.

Some how every year I forget how cold it can get here in Canada... yeah, I know... duh it' Canada. I did grow up here so it is something that I should be used to. But I am the type of person that gets cold when the sun goes behind a cloud...lol. So in the winter I end up layering 2 to 3 shirts... and I am never not wearing thick wool socks. And when picking out my 30/30 items it didn't even cross my mind that it was going to be during late Nov and early Dec which= oh so cold. So while I am going to try to stick as much as I can to my 30/30 items.... there might be a few extras.
Yay! for Saturday... one of my favourite days :)

15/30

(pardon the horrific hair)


I am getting braver with my choices in tight colours..... maroon is probably the most daring that I have ever been.... I thought I'd start my week off creative :)

I wore this to work on monday and to go and get my ring sized, now that it's not as loose I'm not afraid that I am going to lose it. My lovely fiance had it hand made for me.... it's not different, in fact it's very tradional... but that's what I like... and the fact that he went and choose the diamond and then had it made exactly the way I wanted it makes it even more special to me. I'm a lucky girl.

14/30 (Nov 21/10)



Happy Thanksgiving to anyone in the US, I hope you week is full of family and fun.
This past Sunday was really dreary and rainy... I woke up late and had a son that was in a bit of a mood :( So that called for easy, yet still somewhat cute for church. And boy was this outfit ever easy it consisted of three items: a denim dress, black tights and my brogues.

I love dresses that help make getting dressed in a hurry easy. Maybe that should be my word for the 30/30 Challenge... "easy". As a mom I am always looking for outfits and pieces that are easy (easy to move in, easy to put together, easy to clean etc). And the challenge has helped make it easier to get dressed in the morning. You'd think that it'd make it harder... but lucky for me it's made it easier... why? Because I am not having to think as much about what I am going to wear. Maybe standing and looking at a closet full of clothes makes getting dressed in the morning harder, to many options... to many possibilities??

13/30



Back on the train.... or so I hope. Today was a really chill day... I love days were you don't really do anything inparticular. Some errands and hanging out with my family. I choose to wear a skirt today for two reasons. 1. Because I hadn't worn in since last week and 2. Because all of my pants are in the laundry :/ I've been bit of a lazy bones with doing my laundry this week... which is something that needs to happen more often when you have 30 items of clothing to choose from. Fingers crossed I get them cleaned before monday..lol.
Well that's all for tonight... now to cuddle with my man :)

8/30 and 12/30


8/30

12/30



Ok so taking pictures of outfits everyday is trickier than I thought that it'd be. This week I have only had the chance to take pictures of my outfits twice. I promise that I have been keeping to my 30 items... but I may not be able to take pictures everyday. I am trying and will continue to try. But photos of every outfit is not something that I can promise. That being said... my creativity is definitely not been here this week. I have had a very busy week... and when I wake up I think "ok what is the fastest thing that I can put on", and then go.
I hope that everyone has had a fantastic week... here's to friday (and the weekend)!
