spring 30x30

over the past year or so i have seen the 30x30 clothes challenge all over blogland. i have thought about doing it a few times but always had enough excuses to talk me out of it. 
when kelly posted a spring challenge that included linking up with other bloggers, i thought more about it. after wearing blue everyday in april (more to come on that very soon), i was really nervous about taking on another clothes goal. i'm a sucker for a challenge and also meeting other bloggers. kelly is seriously the nicest and set up the whole thing to convince encourage us.
basically you pick 30 pieces of clothing...tops, bottoms, dresses, etc. (i'm not counting shoes or accessories but some do) and mix and match pieces for 30 days. some people also choose not to shop as part of the challenge. unless i really NEED something for my trip, i'm not shopping this month. i have already picked up a few new things for spring so it will be good for me to have a shopping freeze.
i really hope to follow kelly's posting schedule, but i am nervous how that's going to work out with being gone for 2 weeks. here's the plan...
  • Wednesday, May 1st:  My 30 selected items 
  • Wednesday, May 8th:  Days 1-6
  • Tuesday, May 14th:  Days 7-12
  • Monday, May 20th:  Days 13-18
  • Monday, May 27th:  Days 19-24
  • Monday, June 3rd:  Days 25-30
picking out my 30 pieces was so STRESSFUL! the weather here is bi-polar as evidenced by the snow we had today, and i will be spending 2 weeks at the beach. i hope i didn't make any mistakes.

  2. Great choices! love that you used the shower rod as a place to hang everything up for photos. very clever! And those pictures aren't funny! Turn your flash off and maybe hold it lower around your chest. But I'm no photography expert...

  4. Luckily the snow didn't stay long, RIGHT. Sorry, again. If I had a full length mirror I would probably do my own pics :) My husband did mine and they. . . are not my favorite. I bet they get better as the month goes on (practice makes perfect!)
