potential forum challege: dresses

I was wondering how many would be interesed in doing a dress week this upcoming week? show us how you winterize them in the northern hemisphere or how they are keeping you cool in the Southern. For those with a minimal wardrobe show us how you can mix and match so we cannot even tell when you repeat the dress!

I got rid of all my dresses a few months ago and not found any replacements yet.

Oh, yes! That's a game I'd like to play! Five days, or seven?

I only have one, so I might be able to play for one day. On a warmer day....hehe.

I would definitely participate, I need a reason to break some dresses out! I would need to go very heavy on the winterization part of the project though. Sona, what a fun idea!

I'll play. If the weather is as cold as it is today, it may not be every day. Thank you for suggesting this, Sona. I'll try to incorporate the scarf challenge too.

Oh and GP has suggested a scarf challenge... Cant paste the thread from my phone though. Could be dresses and scarves!

I promise I'll participate one or two days, weather permitting. My winter dress collection is lacking. I am actually looking to replace both my black and grey sheath dresses. I've worn them out!

I'm doing belts for Natalie, since I need to wear scarves, not much of a challenge there.

Are we starting Monday,Sona?

Well, at the moment I have two winter-able dresses (one is a true winter dress and the other is cross-seasonal. I can play for a couple of days at least!

Sona

Veteran

yes lets start Monday. sorry guys I hadn't seen Natalie's post. But dresses and scarves sound fun. I think with creative layering and stuff we could even make summer dresses work. And scarves with dresses- super fab!

Yey, ok, I'll start thinking right now;)

Well you KNOW I'd love to participate in this challenge but for purely practical reasons, it will depend on the weather. There is NO WAY I am wearing a dress if we're still in the minus 40's!!! I'm sure you will understand

Well you know I just may be able to play this game seeing as I am now a reborn dress wearer - do skirts count or only dresses?

Isabel

Veteran

I am in too. I have 3 "Winter " dresses. I haven't worn them enough. It would challenge me to either come up with something different or take on picture and post it for 5 days. LOL

I'd like to play like Cathy and post my recently worn ones To be fair, I only have 3 days a week without uniform, and one of those often I don't even leave the house.

Deborah

Veteran

Awesome idea! Despite on going "culling" I still have too many dresses that for some reason I am loath to part with, this might help me decide if I really should be keeping them. Will do my best to participate.

I'm contemplating trying to wear only my black wrap dress five different ways next week - what do you think? Is it a good idea?

Sona

Veteran

Ingunn: fab idea. Ladies: the idea is to have fun. you can substitute skirts for dresses or whatever your heart desires. This is mostly an exercise in fun and trying to challenge ourselves, no one else!!

I don't have many dresses, but could probably manage a couple of posts. Hmm.. maybe I will integrate the scarf challenge and dresses, perhaps 3 days of one and 3 of the other.

This would be easy for me as I now own enough winter dresses to go a whole week. I started collecting them awhile back because it just makes more sense to wear a comfy, forgiving dress in the winter, when I'm more likely to gain a bit of weight. And sweater dresses, with slip underneath, warm tights, and boots are awesome for even the coldest of days!

Unfortunately it's difficult for me to take outfit pics on weekdays, now that I don't have my kids around.

I'm a dress girl, so I better try to participate.

My lack of dress wearing has been shameful ... this challenge will help me get back in the groove. Am not sure I even have enough dresses for a week anymore?!? This is why we need Angie to keep her eagle eyes peeled for good dresses to put in the store. Yoo hoo, Angie! Maybe the dress week will get our dress juices flowing!
