Day 1of the 30x30 challenge and I am feeling pumped. Getting dressed this morning took approximately 3 minutes, 2 of which were devoted to figuring out which belt to wear.
* #3--F21 black and white chunky pullover * #24--H&M flowered dress * #26--CG black oxfords *
* black tights--H&M * brown leather cord belt--Zara * pearl ring-- gift from great uncle *dangly goldish earrings-- Chinatown store * black wool beret--Target *
Last time I wore this sweater, I felt like an Icelandic princess. Today, I'm going for Scottish highlander (as interpreted by Vogue, which is the closest I've ever gotten. Those photoshoots are always so romantic, and likely have little to do with real life.) When making my list for the challenge, I didn't plan out outfits, but I did try and pick pieces that were both versatile and interesting. I love color and pattern and am glad both feature in my choices. Speaking of choices- I've made a few last-minute swaps (indecisiveness is my best quality), so at some point I will edit my list.
Last night, hubs and I attended a fancy dinner with a bunch of our friends. Since I work on Sundays, I had to change in the museum bathroom (always a fun experience), and realized I left my earrings at home. Right before hailing a cab to head uptown I dashed into a random store and saw these earrings on a $2 sale rack. Score.

I need to start wearing my baggy sweaters with skirts like that. It's super cute.
Ooo this looks SO comfy! I love the colors.
LOVE this combo! I can't wait to see Day 2 if Day 1 is this AWESOME. :)
Came together beautifully. And this is why I LOVE your blog. I learn so much about pulling together seemingly random pieces that work so well together.
I love the outfit. You must be so comfy in this crazy weather we are having... Those $2 earrings are a great find!
accessories are taking on a whole new form, aren't they?
love it!
Awesome deal on the earrings. I feel the same as you, I feel like doing 30for30 makes it way way easier to find something to wear!

That dress is gorgeous - both as a dress like you wore it in a previous post and worn as a skirt under a sweater like in this one. The latter is an amazing idea to come up with while getting dressed in a hurry!
Great title! Awesome song! Good luck with the 30! :o)
That skirt is lovely! I love the play of patterns and textures here!
i work at a museum, too! :)
That's a beautiful ring! :)
