Final week of the June challenge.
1. Stop shopping
2. Wear my new clothes.
3. Stop going out of the house in my around-the-house wear.
And how did I do for this last week? Well, for #1, I did order a pair of navy sandals. This is a HEWI for me, and I could have waited, but I didn't see the point... I'm not convinced they are going to be keepers, but I'll reserve judgement until I see them on my feet.
2. Great!
3. I don't seem to have any photos of my evening/errand wear, which means that I either didn't change, or didn't go anywhere. Or that I forgot to take photos :). But I think I did ok, at least I don't remember thinking "oh oh!".
1. The jean jacket is sort of new, but this was really an opportunity to wear my maxi dress, which I seldom do. To my DD's Grade 6 "graduation" ceremony.
2. The new long navy vest, worn with a different tee and jeans than last time...but same idea.
3. My Helmut Lang tee! Worn Friday night, to have a couple of drinks while DD was at a G6 dance. Kept the jacket on all night.
4. To work... a new J Crew linen tank.
5. Keeping it real - I went for a run while DD9 was at soccer.
6. To work, the new EF sweater again.
Not shown:New green stem tee, plus denim shorts (another seldom worn for some unknown reason - I like them, I suspect it's just that denim shorts are heavy and too warm for true summer wear.. for me)
Felt pretty good - I was happy to get some new things out for wear #1, as well as some other new things, and older things, out again...
So there you go. Any comments or suggestions are welcome!
And I do think this exercise has been good for me. I've had a mind shift in terms of enjoying what I have, and seldom mindlessly cruise websites. I hope to continue this through July.
