Anyone interested in a challenge? I mentioned it here yesterday in my What I Wore post! Do you get bored with your winter wardrobe like I do? I tend to wear lots of plaid and Christmas colors leading up to Christmas and then in January and February I wear lots of black and grey.
Here are some outfits from last winter: And, all of these pieces are still in my closet.
I will challenge myself to wear each and every piece of winter clothing before I can repeat a piece. I hope to challenge myself to wear pieces in different ways and in different configurations. I mainly plan to do this for work, but you could also include the weekends. You do the challenge the way you want to. I hope this will keep me from shopping and breathe fresh life into my closet!
My Rules:
-Wear every piece of winter clothing before repeating.
-This does not include staples like black tops to go under or black pants or shoes.
-Keep two bags – one for Goodwill and one for re-sale. If there is a reason I don’t want to wear a piece it should go in one of the two bags. There are a few exceptions – like if it’s a sentimental piece or if it’s holiday or non-work appropriate.
-Take a photo of each outfit.
-After wearing a piece, move to different section of closet.
Let me know in the comments if you plan to join in! I plan to do some other challenges this winter, too! I did this last year, too. Example: Monday – leopard; Tuesday – plaid; Wednesday – vest – You get the idea! It was so much fun and so helpful to me!

I think I’m going to do it! I don’t have a lot of clothes though so it shouldn’t be too hard

Super idea Amy! I’m gonna give you a shout out on my blog. Our temperatures will be back in the 80’s this week so I don’t really have a winter wardrobe. Usually I run out of cold weather and that’s the reason I don’t get to wear some of my heavier sweaters.

Thank you! I hope to give more tips on what to purge! I know you probably only have two seasons in your closet or maybe you use color as your guide?

It’s a great idea, but I have to figure out what is winter clothes and what is not…! I guess everything with long sleeves…? Or do you go by color?

This is such a good idea! I was thinking of doing this with my new wardrobe, turning the hangers round once I’d worn something and seeing what was left unworn…but I’m doing the 30 wears challenge currently and so I’m often repeating things to get those last few wears in and cross the 30 wear figure! maybe next year 🙂
Hope that you have a good weekend ahead of you 🙂

Thank you! You can do this challenge any time you feel bored with your wardrobe or if you feel it’s too cluttered. The 30 challenge is great, too! You go! Have a wonderful weekend, Mica!
