I stumbled across Caroline Joy’s gorgeous Instagram feed the other day and found her Summer 10 x 10 challenge starting on her blog Un-Fancy! Since I’ve been a lover of all things capsule wardrobe for a while, I pulled my favorites together and jumped right in the challenge.

This also comes at the PERFECT time because we have a super huge, exciting, really amazing surprise launching tomorrow in cahoots with Shira Gill. So… stay tuned over on Instagram for that!

 Here are the “guidelines”:

• Pick 10 items of clothing from your closet
• Include tops, bottoms, and shoes for your everyday life
• Don’t count accessories, bags, PJs, or gym clothes
• Then, for 10 days, create a new outfit each day using your 10 items. 

It’s supposed to be a fun challenge to help you maximize your closet and it really does just that. I’ve started coming up with SO many outfit ideas that I normally wouldn’t grab.

Here are the 10 items I selected:

• boyfriend jeans
• white pleated silk skirt
• striped ruffle wrap skirt
• Johnny Cash tee
• white linen tee
• blue striped ruffle sleeve top
• off the shoulder white blouse
• white shirt dress
• camel open cardigan
• suede flatform espadrilles

Each day I’ll post on my Instagram stories my outfit (check out today’s outfit here), with a link to shop the items (or similar if mine is already sold out), but I wanted to share my picks for the capsule below.
