30 day challenge... COMPLETE!

30 days, 30 shoes.

I have to admit, this challenge was harder than I expected. Yes two days were spent in slippers but not the same pair! ;)

And the last 15 days were no joke. The first 15 were easy breezy but the last 15 made me late for work. Whoops!

This challenge forced me to get creative with my wardrobe and that was my goal.

Here's all the shoes I wore from day 1 to day 30.

I am capable of wearing color. It's not a common occurrence but it can happen... The day I wore this to work my co-worker says, and I quote, "Everything okay? What's wrong? You're not wearing black." With this face of concern I never thought was capable.

The day before I wore this look I read an interview with Anna Wintour. She was asked one thing she would never be caught wearing. Her answer, head-to-toe black. I would be lying if my fashionista snobby heart didn't sink a little bit. Then next day, this happened.... So take that Anna Wintour, NO BLACK!

And from then on I have been making an effort not to wear all black. Shout out to Laura Marengo. How proud are you!? I have to say, this #30daychallenge has helped with these efforts. Let's how long I can keep it up!

People are always surprised when I tell them my skirt is from Forever21 or my sweater is actually a Target pyjama top. Dressing well doesn't have to be costly. Learn where to spend your money. Shopping for every occasion is not okay when you're in your 20s. 200$ jeans that make you feel like JLO? Fine, but just a few pairs. 75$ on a Zara top you know you'll wear once? NO. 25$ on a Forever 21 sweater you can layer over and over again? HELL YES. (FYI. Forever 21 and Zara have the same manufactures...) I've seen plenty of horrible outfits made from a collection of expensive pieces. Don't get me wrong, if you've got the money to blow I HATE YOU. But if you live in the real world and working for your dolla bills, why would you waist it? Shop smart and shop well. Take care of your accessories and never put your tops in the dryer. You'll be richer and your life will be happier.
