30 for 30 - Day 18

Ahh day 18! Im getting there, slowly! This is the final remix of the H&M dress mini-remix. This time I took a tip from Michelle that she mentioned on a previous outfit post. She said I could wear the skirt belted and high on my waist, so I did! What do you think? This is obviously the most drastic change for the dress as it just looks like a top in this remix.

30 for 30 challenge - Day 12 & 13 And the Wow Festival

Hello Ladies first I wanna say Happy Birthday to my Mum!! We are taking her out for a nice meal tonight and I shall be wearing the new dress I bought (here). This is the only day I have not worn my 30 for 30 items!

Here are the photos I promised from the Wow Festival in Cardiff Bay. It was an aerial acrobatic performance by Grupo Puja from Argentina. This is just a few of the many photos we have to give you a taste of what it was like. This was all performed hanging off a crane about 70foot in the air. It was amazing!
So now onto the outfits!
Day 12's outfit was for a second BBQ.
Outfit made up of 14+22+28

Day 13's outfit was for a meeting. So needed to be smart-ish but still cool as this day was boiling hot!
Outfit made up of 2+18+26
2. Tommy Hilfiger
18. Next
26. George

Ice Necklace (via secret sales)
Turquoise Bracelet from Jackie

Both fairly simple outfits. I still have lots of options at the mo, so am not finding it too hard. When I hit 20 or so then it might get a little difficult!

How are you all doing in the challenge? Anyone finding it hard yet?

Hand Made Necklaces
Oasis Hat
Vintage Necklace as bracelet
Primark Tights
Boot necklace is made from a vintage monopoly piece. The next necklace is up cycled from a broken vintage necklace. And the longest one I made from some bits of left over black chain, a broken bracelet and a few random beads.

I decided to get a little technical with my challenge and look at what my most versatile pieces are and which I gravitate towards more. And to possibly try and stop wearing the same items so much. So I made a little graph! Yay! This is the number of times each item has been worn up to day 11, so just over a third of the way into the challenge.


Sorry the text is small but it is the only way I could get it all to fit. The items run as they are numbered from left to right. (graph made here)

So that is my geekiness out of the way for now. I shall do another graph at Day 20, to see how things have changed.

New Pretty Reckless song out!! Hope you like!
