Who What Wear // 30 Day Outfit Challenge






Spring is coming. It just has to be coming. Right? Yes, Spring will be here soon. In the meantime Sara of Project Soiree and I are taking a fresh look at our wardrobes with the Who What Wear 30 Day Outfit Challenge.

The challenge helps you to see what you already own in a new light and provides guidance for mixing it up! I'm a week in, and already I've gotten to wear bright color combos, a big comfy sweater, and I've donned a boyish look for a day around the city.

Every day I'm uploading a picture of the outfit to What R U Wearing, instagram, and Daily E including shopping links for you to add similar pieces to your wardrobe! And, maybe at the end of the challenge I'll put all of my pictures into a collage for you to check out!

In the top/title picture (taken by Blair, other two by Danny) I am mixing textures... sort of.  I figured the cable knit sweater, chambray, polka dots, and leopard print flats combo is mixing textures and patterns!  The other two pictures are for my boyish look.  I have to admit that Danny helped a lot with that one, I borrowed his watch!  And, even though we both are St. Louis Cardinal Fans, he agreed that the grey Boston hat went with the outfit better.  (What a guy right?)  And he also helped with yesterday's "wear a piece you've been saving" by pointing out that I hadn't worn my army blazer in a while!! 

Shop the items from the first week of looks below!

Outfit with a View + A GIVEAWAY!!!



I shared a couple of our group shots when I announced the Windy City Blogger Collective last week and I've been a bit busy so I figured it would be fun to detail my outfit a bit more for you all.  And, I've got an exciting What R U Wearing giveaway to announce!

Color Me Styled - #OOTD 70s in October?



I am not going to complain about Indian Summer weather.

But it is a little frustrating to bounce from 35 and rainy to 75 and sunny. It was warm enough to order iced coffee this morning and not feel silly. I even posted a few days ago about how lovely cape coats are and I would love to be wearing one but it is far to warm. I went from wearing long pants with sweaters to today's Outfit of the Day (#OOTD) which I think balances Work Approp. with Fall and June like temps.

Suiting dress from Banana Republic, Leopard Flats from 9 West (they're 2 years old but here are a similar pair from Madewell), floral scarf and jade bead necklace from J.Crew (similar here from Macy's)

I also had a lot of fun with today's Chicago Red Eye. My favorite article compared Taylor Swift Lyrics to Craig's List Missed Connections posts. 

I think most people have a soft spot in their heart for Tay. It is like my soft spot for Avril Lavigne. Can you remember who you sang "Complicated" about? I can. Also, Sk8r Boi is a classic.
