30 for 30 Remix Challenge! Wanna join me?

So, I stumbled across a really unique challenge on this wicked-awesome new (to me) blog I found.. she linked this 30 for 30 Remix Challenge from another blog and then I found it on her blog... etc, etc... you can see how this goes.. ANYWAY! The jist of the challenge is to pick 30 items (including shoes, but not accessories) from your closet and remix them into 30 different outfits for 30 days. Ya. That's a style challenge if I ever saw one... :o) But I am so excited to try it and if anything, after 30 days, it's really going to make me love everything else in my closet even more! Oh ya, and no shopping for 30 days either!

I think that a whole bunch of bloggers did this together back in the fall 2010, so clearly I am way behind on this. But who says I can't do it on my own...?? :o)

Anyway, for all of March I will posting photos of my outfits and how I've reworked the 30 items I've chosen into new outfits... ahhhh, it's sounds so scary when I say it, but I'm super excited... The idea behind it is the whole "shop your closet" theory... which is so cool! And I think this challenge even narrows it down more by making you get those creative juices flowing in trying to conjure up new outfit inventions everyday!

So below are my picks from my closet and what I am going to be loving/wearing/washing/repeat for the next 30 days! Wish me luck! And join me if you want! We can be each others inspiration/cheerleaders! :o)
