In an effort to maximize my wardrobe and minimize my need to shop, I am participating in not 1 but TWO different wardrobe challenges this week!
The first is the Summer Black-Out, hosted by Sal. The challenge is no black clothes from Monday June 7 to Monday June 14. This is actually pretty straight-forward, since summer months typically mean, for me at least, brighter colors in my clothes.
The second is the Summer Capsule Wardrobe, hosted by Jane. I just realized this challenge started on Friday June 4th, so I am behind - oops! Her challenge is a bit more difficult: 5 items of clothing for one week (or in my case, 5 day: from Monday June 7 to Friday June 11) with unlimited accessories and shoes. {ETA: I am not crazy after all; the challenge is really only 5 day 6/7-6/11, so I am right on track!}
I am taking the easy route with this second challenge: I have chosen 3 tops (grey ruffle tank, cream colored blouse and peachy-pink top) and 2 bottoms (brownish pants and brown skirt). All these items have been previously worn. Hopefully my peeps at work won't notice I am wearing the same things this week!
top and pants: J. Crew
shoes: Life Stride
shades: Tom Ford
Since I am off today, you can bet I will be wearing this outfit again during the week to work, only with dressier shoes.

I'm SO impressed with all you gals doing the double challenge. Rock on, lady!
It really did start today... it was just incorrect on that one post!
I like the idea of doing the blackout challenge too, and I didn't really choose any black for my capsule, so i guess I can!
Chic on the Cheap
