30 Days of Dresses DONE!!!!!

 HI There!  So I have completed my thirty days of dresses challenge, today being the last day. Whoo hoo!  And what have I learned?  I think I can answer that in three parts:

1.  I have a lot more than 30 dresses (eep!) And I still find myself gravitating to them when I shop.  

2.  Dresses are nice, but variety is nice too.  Sometimes all I wanted to do was kick back in a pair of jeans.  I did slip up one day in Portland and changed out of my dress into jeans.  I just couldn't help it.  I was cold and it was windy and we were hiking...the lesson is that only being able to wear dresses is just kind of annoying.  I am really grateful for having the freedom to wear jeans, shorts, skirts, t-shirts, blouses, ties, vests, sweaters, trousers and dresses.  I pretty much took that freedom for granted before taking this challenge.  

3.  I definitely need to giveaway some of my dresses...the ones I didn't get to within the 30 days may have to find a new home! 

And so here is the final round up of pictures, day 9 through 30.  Click the photos to enlarge.  Enjoy!  (Note:  there was one dress I swear I wore, but forgot to take a picture of till the next morning, so it's just pictured without me in it.  Also, there was one picture I included twice cause the first one I used was pretty dark.  I didn't count the dress twice however. ) 

30 Days of Dresses- Continues....

That's right, got myself through another couple weeks of dresses!  I actually need to post all the pictures still, from the last two weeks, but what can I say?  I've fallen behind! (See previous post!)  But I wanted to post about it anyway (just so you know I am still doing this!)

Now I am starting to get annoyed by always having to wear a dress.  Yep, I admit it.  Sometimes dresses are not the best form of clothing and these past couple of weeks, there have been several times when I found myself looking at my jeans longingly!  I suppose I picked a doozy of a month to take this challenge.  I've been having lots of events at work that require me to be moving, packing and carrying heavy items--I should be dressing in dungarees, not floaty dresses.  And Disneyland is not the place to wear a dress (getting in and out of those rides was a lot harder than you'd think. ) And the other night at the Dodger game, I just felt silly in a dress.  Dresses and Dodgers don't really mix, ya know?  Anyway, with the way things are looking, I'll have to wait to post pictures of all the dresses till next week, so I have decided to give you a recap at the very end...it'll be a lot of dresses! Get excited!

30 Days of Dresses

It has recently been brought to my attention that I own a LOT of dresses.  And I always seem to want to buy more dresses, and why not?  They are feminine, pretty, flattering and easy--it's a complete outfit all in one, pull it off the hanger and you're ready to go!  I like dresses.  

So as a way to take a look at my complete dress collection (and maybe make some decisions about which ones I may want to donate and which ones I have potentially forgotten about altogether) I am setting myself a simple little challenge~

For the next 30 days I will be wearing only dresses.  No skirts, no shorts, no jeans or blouses--just dresses.  AND I can't ever wear the same dress twice.  30 days of different dresses.  That's the plan.  I should also mentioned that I haven't actually even checked to see if I have 30 dresses, which makes the whole thing even more exciting!  

So for the month of April keep checking back as once a week I'll post the dresses from the previous 7 days.  I just hope the weather holds out too...Fingers crossed! Time to get dressy!

Day One:

A flirty, basic little number from Target (shoes as well.)  Wish me luck!
