It's a week before my 23rd birthday, and I've decided that it's time to further assess my closet by undergoing the 30x30 remix challenge started by blogger Kendi Everyday. The idea is to take 30 items from your closet and only wear those 30 items for 30 days. Since I'm basically living out of two suitcases right now, 30 items is roughly half of what I have available, so it wasn't that hard to whittle down my list. Items in red are items that I am considering giving away or selling after returning to the states, and hopefully this exercise will help me decisively conclude what goes and what stays. I'll try to update once or twice a week with outfits and thoughts.
The list*:
Spiewak herringbone coat | Black velvet long sleeve dress | Grandma's breton sweater |
Barbour Beaufort jacket | Zara camel pleated dress | Cashmere black turtleneck |
Shearling leather biker jacket | Vintage paisley dress | American Apparel sweatshirt |
Gap grey wool blazer | Vintage green floral skirt | American Apparel breton |
Taupe suede ankle boots | Gap black straight trousers | Zara drop-shoulder breton |
Black suede ankle boots | J Brand “major” navy pants | Vintage striped t-shirt |
Black suede sneakers | Levis medium-dark skinny jeans | Vintage denim shirt |
OTK black leather boots** | Levis black skinny jeans | Vintage black blouse |
Fjallraven Kanken | Grandma's red cardigan | Vintage mustard blouse |
Black suede carryall | Grandma's green cardigan | J. Crew striped button-down |
**I should be receiving these boots in the mail either today or tomorrow, so I'll decide then if they stay in this last or not.
I just received this suede waterproofing spray + cleaner in the mail yesterday. This Sunday morning was perfectly sunny for such a satisfying activity. Too bad the sunshine is only going to last another day before another solid week of rain. Thank god this stuff works though!



Good luck with your experiments! I can't wait to see your photos!
