30 for 30 challenge !

I was working yesterday so no post but here are the items I am gonna use for the 30 for 30 challenge

The rules :
- You pick 30 items from your wardrobe
- You remix them all together for 30 days in a row or more
- You are on a spending ban during the "remix period"

I decided to spice it a little bit by :
- limiting the black items ( I just picked 4)
- adding skittle colors (I went a little bit crazy with colors in my last haul : 4$98 for cardigans....)
- using articles that I bought lately in the sale to see whether they were good investment (marked with *)

So , SHOES :
5 pairs but only 3 pictured :
- black flats from JOE Fresh
- brown flats from Modcloth
- leopard heels
+ 2 pairs of boots : black and brown as we are under 30 cm of snow at the moment so pretty usefull....


TOPS :
- pink sheer top from Le Chateau
- floral tunic from H&M
- white silk top from Cassis (*)
- plain grey T-shirt from JOE fresh
- last minute decision : black wool vest (as I am always cold) from Old Navy (*)



Cardigans and sweaters :
2 turtle necks : camel one from Mango (*) and black shimmery one from Zellers (both *)
1 golden V neck : Zellers (*)
3 cardigans : lavender, teal and taupe from Old Navy (*)


Skirts and dresses :
- brown pencil skirt from Cassis (*)
- Blue silk skirt from JOE fresh
- 2 wool dresses (Benetton and ?)


Pants :
- beige one from JOE fresh (*)
- velvety ones : grey-blue, dusty purple and brown from RW&Co (*)
and the naughty leather skirt (Winners) wanted to hang with the guys....



last minute Outsiders :
- Barbie pink cardigan from Old Navy (*)

OOTD : Lara Croft and EOTD : Pixiwoo's

Yesterday, I HAD to go to the Annabelle Warehouse sale but I was short in time as we had to meet friends for a casual supper later in the day ....
So I decided to pick a comfortable outfit to fight the crowd but I had to glam it up for the night so I put on my new fierce boots :
Jacket : Patrice Breal collection (gift from mum !). I love it : I've been wearing it non stop since I got it. It's in linen, it's kaki, it has gorgeous military details (zippers, metallic buttons...) : what's not to love ?
Shirt : in taupe color from Cassis. I bought the shirt for 5$ last winter at the end of the season. It was on the clearance section and a button was missing (for 5$, I ca sew a button !)
Green military pants : Winners . I am a "dress" girl but sometimes I find some pants that don't make me look like a 10 year old boy so I splurge !
Cream boots : Loooooooooooooove them to death. I fell dangerous and Sexy in those. Winners again for 50 $ ! (because there is a stain the size of an ant on the right calf ! Woop, woop in my cart ...)
Big chunky belt and jewelry : no name brand (offered by mum ...again !)


This 2nd pic was taken by hubby discovering a new passion : fashion photographer. He was quite into it, yelling orders : walk, turn, spin, jump ...(Jump ???? in heels ???)
So I obeyed like a nice little wife I am and walked...


Last pic of the outfit : just for the pleasure of showing off my beloved boots !


Make up now ! I copied this look from Pixiwoo. I am such a big fans of the sisters, they are so amazing ...


Products used :
MAC fluidline in rich ground as a base
Sleek palette in Storm for e/S
Marcelle Volume Precision in Black
Annabelle smoothliner in rich chocolate
Rimmel vintage pink on lips
