summer 10x10 challenge kick off

It’s officially Summer 10x10 time! This challenge always seems to come around when I’m lacking inspiration with my wardrobe. It's got perfect timing because I think the best time to play with limits is when I feel myself reaching for the same pieces.

winter 10x10: recap + lessons

The winter 10x10 challenge is over! I have to be honest, I was ready to have full access to my closet by day seven. I had to make a few substitutions here and there but overall feel good about completing this season's 10x10. I was feeling uninspired by my wardrobe and this challenge definitely gave me a fresh appreciation for the pieces in my closet.
