4 of 30... extra credit!

There are a few items in this go-round of the 30/30 Challenge that I actually used in the last challenge. This top is one of them... it's heavy in rotation for my wardrobe and so I knew it couldn't be left out. I also thought it added a fun dimension to have a few items remixed now (winter) and then (summer). Does that earn me extra credit?


I'm trying out a new location in my house for photos. Our house has like a million windows. Which is great for natural light... but we have almost no walls for which to serve as a back-drop for photos. And you can't stand in front of a window (weird back light - although that is what I did for my old location, just with the blinds closed)... and even the small smidges of walls we have are used for photos and other wall hangings. Harummmpppffff. So I don't know... let me know how you like this backdrop... better than previous!?! Still as so-so!?!


I will admit that looking at my thirty items this morning I instantly thought: These old things again? So soon! But the thing I love about this challenge is the practice of getting over the hump of "these old things" and just wearing them because you love them and because they are great pieces. Even if you wore them recently. Does your mind do that when looking at your clothes... instantly persuade you that you JUST wore that? Mine does.
