My reasons: I get lazy. I'm not a morning person, and that's typically when I get dressed, so it's easy for me to get into an outfit rut and not think creatively at all about what to wear. Also, like many women, I have a tonne of clothes and probably only wear about 2% of my wardrobe in any given week, and I can admit it- I'm boring with my wardrobe. Pants and sweaters, accessorized with a necklace.Yawn.
The rule I'm going to dress by:
- 30 items, which will consist entirely of visible clothes (obviously undercrackers, socks, etc. won't count).
- I'm not including shoes into this, because I'm not a shoe person and I know perfectly well I'll either wear black flats or rain boots for the next 30 days, without fail.
- No outfit can be worn exactly the same way twice.
- Accessories are not included, and will be used as much as possible to punch up the existing clothing choices. It's about time I make the most of all the scarves and handbags I own, for goodness sake.

Fun! Are you going to post photo's of your outfits? Have fun rockin' the accessories this month!
I am loving your selection. I have seen various bloggers doing it... It is a great challenge! May have to do it when I am not travelling for work. Will be great to see your outfits!
Wow, what a great challenge! I'm inspired...
i like this idea! i was just thinking earlier that i really need to stop being so lazy in the morning and putting more thought into my outfits. september weather is too unpredictable for me to try this now . . . maybe in october!
lol at "undercrackers"
i get stuck in a wardrobe rut as well.. what a great undertaking
whoo! let's do this! very excited!
I really love your blog. Your sense of style and knitting skill is very inspiring. Cute project Idea. I even went to Eliza's blog to check out what she is doing.
Just letting you know I referenced you in my knit blog today...I was especially excited about the lace dress you featured for Modification Monday. What a find!!!
I LOVE Kendi!! I've been dying to try her 30 for 30 remix as well... looking forward to following your month but may have to join you!
This is fun :-)) I will be cheking in on yor future posts :-))
Oh, you definitely should take pictures of your outfits!
I agree with the others - I would love to see pics of your daily outfits! Maybe a flickr set, if you don't feel like blogging them all?
Please post. You are an inspiration! When we travel, I pack basic solids (navy for me, though black is more versatile) and change the look with jewelry and scarves. My husband and I can go three weeks with two carry-ons, and go everywhere from the beach to a memorial service. but I do get pretty tired of the clothes by then.
Sounds like an excellent challenge! I hope you post many of your results. I agree with others--this would be brilliant for travel.
It's a good idea, maybe I will give it a try. It's a shame that we own a great wardrobe and not using it to it's full potentials (the same is true for accessories, at least in my case). I found that it's much easier to choose and prepare the garment for the next day because I have no desire to think about it after I wake up in the morning, but sometimes I'm too tired and lazy even for that...
That's a cool challenge!
I love it! I may have to try this inspirational idea myself! My wardrobe could use this extra punch!
Love this idea! I'm trying to be more creative with my clothes as well...as a way of slowing down with my shopping habit...I know it helps the economy, but it's not helping mine! So I want to stretch out my wardrobe as much as I can...
This sounds like a great idea. I should definetly do this for the coming winter....hmmmmmm, I think I might!
