The Spring Style Me Challenge continues at Get Your Pretty On. As the challenge continues, I am again realizing how I can continue to purge down my wardrobe. I stopped at a local clothing resale store this past weekend and parted with a few items that I had been hanging on to. They rejected some but not all of them as they did last time I was there. I left with a little less clothing and little more money in my pocket. As I left, I felt like it was a win! As I thought more about it, I decided I would part with a few more like items on Sunday. Guess what? They bought those also. Saturday + Sunday = a great win for my purging and developing a better more remixable wardrobe. Which leads me to the challenge – it has been a great opportunity to work on remixing.
This week I’m linking up again with my fellow challenge ladies. I’m posting Days 10-16. Below is what was suggested to wear and what I wore. Some days I drifted in the unsafe waters of my own decisions and though it sounded good in my head, it didn’t always translate on my body the way I envisioned. But, lessons are being learned and I am enjoying understanding my style and mixing pieces better with each outfit.
Please check out the lovely ladies below and give them some blogger love. And if you want to enter the Celebration Giveaway for my friend Alex at Undergraduate Style who reached the 200 milestone on her blogging journey go here. It’s a $50 gift card to Target. Who doesn’t love Target, right? You can also enter on my post from Monday, just scroll down.

You are acing this Spring challenge so far. I love all your use of Scarves too. I, too used a Scarf with my Denim Layered look today. I became quite creative with a Plaid Button-down if I must say so myself lol.
Happy Hump Day, Carrie!

Doesn’t cleaning out your closet feel so good?? I cleared-out about half of my clothing a few months ago. Everything I’m getting rid of is sitting in bags right now…I need to get around to taking them to some consignment shops…a little extra money sounds good right about now!

I was excited that they actually took some of my clothes this time. I’m learning what they will buy and what they won’t. I still have a lot of clothes though. My dilemma now is camis – how many does a girl need anyway and what colors do I really need to keep. This is what I think about…seriously! Crazy isn’t it! đŸ™‚ Glad you stopped by!

Your style is such a great mix of fun and classy, I really love it. I think I will be using some of your outfits as prompts for myself once the challenge is over.

Wow! Thank you, Beth! I think you nailed exactly my style. I knew I leaned toward classic & I sorta love trendy but fun is the perfect mix of where I want to linger. I am also a former/reforming black & grey & dark color lover. Color is so beautiful and it really does make one more visible. I’m finding my personality changes when I wear something colorful as well. Interesting! đŸ™‚
