30 for 30

So, in the past week or so, I've decided that I need to challenge myself.  In everything.  I've joined Nanowrimo.  I've forced myself to continue making new things out of old.  And, I've signed myself up for Kendi's 30 for 30 Fall Remix Challenge.


I'm taking this opportunity to force myself to hand over the maternity clothes (my youngest is 9 months people) and start enjoying getting dressed again.  Since I'm not back at my pre-pregnancy size, I'm going to have to rely on the items:

  1. I had when I was heavier and just couldn't give up
  2. that maybe a little too small, but I'll have to work it out
  3. that may be a little too large, but (again) I'll have to work it out
What do *I* hope to gain from this?

A kick in the ass out of my post-pregnancy fashion funk.  Another kick in the ass to get rid of those items that just.never.belonged.  Some inspiration on how to express myself in my clothes.  And, maybe (hopefully), some new friends along the way.

Good luck to all who are participating - there's a LOT of us.

I'll have my list up tomorrow!
