30 for 30 The Wardrobe

OMG this is harder then I thought. My thirty had to include shoes!! What?? Then I can’t buy any clothes for thirty days. Hope this doesn’t end like my no shoe buying did. I got through it and then I fell off the wagon like and eating disorder in a Waffle House. Now surely I’ve gone thirty day with out buying clothes, (I’m not crazy), but the words, ‘you can’t’, don’t hold well with me.

Taking the Challenge

My friend Jenny is doing a Blogger challenge to select 30 articles of clothing from her closet and design her next 30 days of wardrobe using only these 30 pieces. Accessories don’t count and you can’t repeat the same combo. I think I might try it, starting Monday. What a girls got to do her laundry first!! but I think it will be fun. I’ll post my thirty pieces and if I can figure out how to post a picture I’ll show you and you can follow along .

Tap Dancing In Rain Puddles

About eight months ago I put myself on a shoe diet. I jumped off the wagon recently and apparently beat it to death with my Nordstrom’s card. It started with the most comfortable sneakers ever on my Vegas trip and end with a boot shopping spree. Ladies I purchased three pairs of boots last weekend. One snow, one rain, and one fashion with no absolute need for any of them. It’s been eight months and I needed to shoe shop it makes me happy! I don’t even have room for them in my closet and I don’t care. Not buying shoes for me is like holding my breath and last week I inhaled and I don’t care.

All week I’ve been wearing my rain boots my new shiny black hunter rain boots and my older shiny teal Hunter rain boots. People at work have been questioning the fact that I own two pair of Hunter rain boot. I figure I live in Seattle it rains 250 of the 364 days of the year and its grey preparing to rain 60 of the days in the middle. I say don’t hate me because I’m tap dancing in rain puddles.
