To see all my '30 for 30 Remix' outfits head on over here

30 for 30 Remix - more outfits
some new outfits to share...i wont be finishing the challenge as Im off in 2 days time. I managed to do 15 outfits (more pics to upload soon) so half way there but trying to take photos during Winter is pretty tricky if your days are as busy as mine.
The great thing is I know this challenge works.. and Ive felt great doing it!! Its been fun!!
i'll see how I feel when i get back from my holiday - hey i might even end up finishing it after all.

Yes we can live with less and Im definetely going to start planning and thinking hard before I hit the shops and sales!

11 of 30 - Jacket on - Jacket off!

12 of 30 - off to work!

30 for 30 Remix Continues along nicely...
yes im still remixing - I havent neglected this little challenge!
Actually im feeling very proud of myself that im remixing with no problems using my batch of 30 pieces - they arent all fashion forward clothes, most have been in my wardrobe for a very long time but sadly not worn often...so yes, instead of feeling wasteful Im now one happy girl!

8 of 30
this wool skirt is lovely but its tricky to wear - the knot detail at the front is quite low so screams to be paired with a fitted top.
Maybe I should invest in some bodysuits (Donna Karen 1990's??) or onesies as they call them these days.
Anyone else have any ideas how to style it up?





9 of 30 - the most comfy dress ever! worn with black ruffled cardi.



What Ive learnt so far...
* fashion bloggers sure are committed! dressing, posing, finding the perfect light and location, smiling....(so many cool fashion blogs out there )
*that I need to wear more colour (ok mum)
*that accessories are key - the more the merrier girls!..
*and that I (or hubby) need to study the camera manual to improve the picture taking process!

Happy weekend everyone! hope to take more pics again tommorow....if I can convince anyone in my family - think they are sick of me asking (and begging)!

30 for 30 Remix some more outfits to share ...

6 of 30 - work or play

7 of 30 -a day at home

and after this shot I got awfully ill, ive been living on bread and black tea and am still feeling out of it (woe is me!)
i must give a big shout out to my boy Pete who took some of these photos for me - my beautiful boy!! im so lucky.

30 for 30 remix continued...

4 of 30 - another work look, thrifted sheer floral scarf ( love the colours) tied around and my Michael Kors bag that i bought in NYC

5 of 30 - Stripey fun. My striped top is fitted but Im still not sure about stripes on my curvy shape - adds more curves! Teamed it with a layered silver necklace, navy opaques and heels

I took another two outfits over the weekend just before I got sick with gastro (ughhh!) so will share soon!
if you have no idea what Im doing - head on over here to see!

Happy Remixing!

A Winter palette (lots of dark?) or maybe a 'safe' mix of items? (thats SO me...playing it safe)
I have some staples here that will also work well for the office and a few pieces Ive had for ages & ages (actually almost everything is old haha)
but there are pieces Ive have hardly worn so Im going to give it a go and see what I can remix!
ive excluded denim/blue jeans as I live in them so Im going to learn to love my skirts again.

There are NO rules for this challenge but Im setting some for myself.
No shopping for at least 30 days even though Id love some new winter shoes. I plan to save my pennies for a little shopping during my upcoming overseas trip.
What I hope to get out of this is to realise, yes, I can live with less and, yes, I can learn to shop my wardrobe and remix more often!
I need to stop rushing out to buy complete outfits and instead I need to buy pieces that enhance what I already have in my wardrobe to make it fresh and workable.

There's over 200 remixers so for all taking up the challenge - happy remixing!

Oh and I will be sharing pics of my 30 outfits but probably not daily as I work, I leave home in a frantic pace every morning and come home when its very dark and dreary (its Winter here folks) but I will do my best!!
