This post should've been up on January 1st but I don't know what happened, it didn't go up like it was scheduled, so today I published it manually.
The year 2010 has passed and now let's embrace a new year ahead of us! I have shared my stories of my 2010 on the previous post and so as i promised...today will be about the overall review or summary of my 2010 outfit project. For those of you who didn't know, I started a personal project of trying not to wear the same outfit in a whole year during 2010. It's just a personal project that I did out of fun, but I also intend to do it because I wanna see what my outfit personalities are, how far is my mix n match skill?, and which one of my clothes that I never wear anymore and which ones are a staple in my wardrobe. With that in mind, I will re-arrange my closet, throw away clothes that I never worn or never had the urge to wear it, and shop for more clothes that are proven to be a staple in my closet.
Looking back at my outfit journals in Chictopia, Weardrobe and Flickr I finally can see that there are some items which I wore and mixed over and over again, these items are what I considered as staples. During 2010, the item that I wore most often is my black leggings and skinny jeans but those didn't count because they are a must-have basics. Other clothing items that I wore most on 2010 were:

- my little black dress (random brand): 7 times
- my dark pink cardigan (gifted from SIL): 7 times
- my black cardigan (SODA Girl): 6 times
- my denim skirt (Atmosphere): 5 times
- my black tubedress (garage sale): 5 times
You can see from the list above that an LBD (little black dress) is a must-have on my closet (along with black leggings and skinny jeans). If you like, you can see how I mixed n matched my LBD here.
I also learned that cardigans are a staple for my closet because I wear it often. What kinda surprise me is how I wore my black tubedress more than other dresses in my closet. I found that tube dress are easy to mix n match too; you can wear a tee or a blouse either underneath it or over it, you can also add cardigans / vests / jackets over it -> buttoned or unbuttoned, belted or un-belted :)
Anyway, i was also surprised that I wore my dark pink cardigan more often than my black ones (because i practically think that black is more versatile than pink, but apparently pink can be versatile too ;p).

I'll blog about my 2010 remixes of the black cardigan and denim skirt on my next post ;)
Until then, why don't you tell me whether or not you have an outfit journal too? and if you do, what were the items that you found you wore most often during 2010? You can leave links too if you want, I'd be happy to check your 2010 outfits ;)
