Day 1 of 30/30

 This is a terrible, no good, very bad way to start this off!  Ice storm + thesis writing + no where to go = very little motivation to look cute.  You're lucky I even got dressed/put on a teensy bit of makeup/pulled my hair into a haphazard fishtail braid.  I promise this will get better.  Here's some pictures I literally just took.  Don't judge me.

Apparently this is what I look like when
 I set my camera timer for 2 seconds instead of 10.
I whip around and smile with a lot of teeth.  Awesome. 

Sweater: UO, Tank: Victoria Secret, Leggings: Target, Scarf: gift from China

P.S. I need to take some photography lessons or something...
My skillz are a little sub-par.

30 for 30 Picks

Black leggings, Straight leg jeans, yellow tank

Skinny jeans, black pants

Casual black dress, floral skirt, greyish pencil skirt

Purpleish sweater, pink tee, white tunic, cream sweater

Blazer, blue tank

Grey dress

Purple sweater, grey sweater, yellow sweater, red ruffle shirt

tall brown boots, black clogs, brown booties,
tall black boots, grey flats (please ignore the dust)

So that gives me 24 items...I still need six more.  I'm thinking I'm going to add a blue and white stripe button down, a sheer floral top, a teal skirt, a black sweater, a black dress and something else.

P.S. I'm sorry for the terrible pictures.  I am by no means a photographer.  Hopefully you can kind of tell what these clothes look like.

30 for 30

I'm on a budget. A strict budget. An essentials only budget (I count a weekly latte at Starbucks essential).  Anyways I've been reading this blog, Kendi Everyday and she does thing every season where she challenges people to pick 30 items from your closet (including shoes) and you have to use only those 30 items to create outfits for 30 days.  I've never done this but I'm assuming it helps you extend your clothing budget by pairing items you wouldn't normally wear together.  I'm very excited to do this.  My goal is to choose my 30 items this weekend and take pictures and post them.  Then starting February 1st I will post a picture of my outfit everyday.

Feel free to join in!
