My First Wardrobe Capsule Challenge
7:30:00 PMA couple of weeks ago I stopped by Kasmira's blog, What I Wore Today, and found out about this Wardrobe Capsule Challenge that was originally started by Jane from The Small Fabric of My Life. I was intrigued by the idea and decided to also join the Wardrobe Capsule Challenge. So basically the rule is to choose ten items of clothing from your wardrobe (including shoes) and mix and match them for five days between Monday September 28th and Friday October 2nd. You are also allowed five accessories which include jewellery, scarves, bag, belts etc. Underwear and hosiery do not come under the ten items and five accessories.
I know the date seem so long ago but I did finished my challenge that week. I just got carried away by my daily routines and blogging jobs that makes me forgot to post the result of my Wardrobe Capsule Challenge sooner! Oh, silly me! So anyway, I'm gonna post my Wardrobe Capsule Challenge Week right now, it's better late than never post it at all, right?! ;p
So, first of all...here are the 10 wardrobe items and 5 accessories that I choose for this challenge:
10 wardrobe items:
Dark Pink Cardigan, Gold embellished Tank, Black tee, Pink Stripe skirt, Grey patterned skirt;
Black Skinny jeans, Black tube dress, Grey Cardigan, White open toe, Black flats.
5 accessories:
Allure necklace, Black wide belt, Black bracelet, Black quilted bag, White quilted bag
Dark Pink Cardigan, Gold embellished Tank, Black tee, Pink Stripe skirt, Grey patterned skirt;
Black Skinny jeans, Black tube dress, Grey Cardigan, White open toe, Black flats.
5 accessories:
Allure necklace, Black wide belt, Black bracelet, Black quilted bag, White quilted bag
Although for a first-timer I'm quite overwhelmed at first, especially when choosing which 10 wardrobe items and accessories to use that can be rotated to be worn in 5 consecutive days, but I find it quite easy and challenging so I end up having fun with it. So here's what I came up at the end of the week; five days of rotated clothes and accessories:
MONDAY:
Grey cardi, Grey patterned skirt, Black wide belt, Black bracelet, Allure necklace, Black flats & Black bag.
TUESDAY:
Pink Cardi, Pink Stripe skirt, White open toe shoes, White bag, Allure necklace.
WEDNESDAY:
Black tee, Grey patterned skirt, Black skinny jeans, Black wide belt, Allure necklace, White open toe & White bag.
THURSDAY:
Black tube dress, Pink Cardi, Black Wide belt, Black flats, Black bracelet & Black bag.
FRIDAY:
Black tube dress, Gold embellished tank, Black bracelet, White open toe shoes & Black bag.
Grey cardi, Grey patterned skirt, Black wide belt, Black bracelet, Allure necklace, Black flats & Black bag.
TUESDAY:
Pink Cardi, Pink Stripe skirt, White open toe shoes, White bag, Allure necklace.
WEDNESDAY:
Black tee, Grey patterned skirt, Black skinny jeans, Black wide belt, Allure necklace, White open toe & White bag.
THURSDAY:
Black tube dress, Pink Cardi, Black Wide belt, Black flats, Black bracelet & Black bag.
FRIDAY:
Black tube dress, Gold embellished tank, Black bracelet, White open toe shoes & Black bag.
Hmm, maybe because I'm used to plan my outfits ahead so I don't have any hard time with this challenge. I used black as basic color here, to be easy to combine with everything. And I also added some bright colors to keep it off the boring area. I think I'm gonna be participating again next year, meanwhile you could check all the stylish bloggers who participate in this year's wardrobe capsule challenge. Too bad I'm too late to tell Jane about mine ^o^ Oh well, maybe next year..!
Anyway, here is all the pictures put together, tadaa... My Wardrobe Capsule Challenge:^_~

That's a great idea. I like how it makes you more creative with the clothes you already have rather than looking out for newer things.
ReplyDeleteHappy blogging!
Oh - I really like the skirt as a tunic over the jeans!
