This week I am taking part in Jane's Capsule Wardrobe Challenge over at 'The Small Fabric of my Life'. The rules can be found here.
For a very quick recap of the rules:
10 items of clothing are allowed and must be warn Monday – Friday. (This includes clothing, shoes and outerwear).
5 Accessories are allowed (to include jewellery, belts, scarves and bags).
Tights, underwear, watches and glasses (if you wear them) are free!
I must admit, the first day didn't go well. I didn't prepare. So this morning, by default, this flowery dress, blue cardigan and red shoes became part of my 10 items.
The red belt and the silver necklace are 2 of the '5 Accessories'.
As tights are free items, I choose bright red ones. Why not?
Here is my full list as I haven't had time to take a photo (reads: I haven't had time to wash and iron everything yet being the undomesticated goddess that I am).
My 10 clothing items:
1. Flowery Dress.
2. Blue Cardigan.
3. Black Trousers.
4. Long line T-shirt.
5. Dark Blue Skinny Jeans.
6. Black and White Dotty top.
7. Black Blazer.
8. Red Platform Shoes.
9. Black Boots.
10. Red Coat.
My 5 Accessories:
1. Red Belt.
2. Black Belt.
3. Silver Heart Necklace.
4. Scarf.
5. Red bag.
So, 4 days to go. I hope you are all joining in too...

This challenge sounds so fun! You chose great pieces to work into your looks. Love how you belted the cardigan. You look fab!

I love the color combo! Good luck with the challenge, I can't wait to see what else you come up with.
You are a brave one!I love that you didn't shy away from color, But it really shows that you know which colors suit you!
I know if given this challenge, I would wear all black and grey or I would give up. (plus even though I pretty much wear the same jewelry everyday, I think its more than 5 things!)
loving the bright, cheery colors!!
Great use of a 'free' item (the tights) and thank you for a real live example of my "coloured tights yes or no" question!
Looking forward to seeing what you pull off for the rest of the week...
I love that outfit where is your dress from its so pretty xx
Brunette, this dress was from Tesco! I got it friday evening in the sale. £9. It is a bit lightweight and summery mind you, so need tights and cardi at this time of year.
OMG! YOU look Gorgeous! I luv your color combination, it's FASHIONABLY FABULOUS!!!:)
I love th elook. I saw the dress in my Tesco too but they didn't have my size.
Can't wait to see the rest of the week!
Great color combination! Those red tights are a clever addition. Those can be a pop of color for every outfit you put together.
good luck with the challenge! I can't wait to see what else you come up with. that floral pattern is great!
I so wanted to join in but didn't plan far enough ahead. I love your tights and shoes with the great floral dress, fab!
I know that challenge...but I'm not creative enough to do it. This is a great look. I love the red tights, shoes and belt that you used.
Sounds like it is going to be a great week! I love the bright red tights & other red accessories with the flowery dress. They make the print look bold and not too "pretty", if that makes sense.
Hi there-you're off to a brilliant start, a great stylish first outfit! can't wait to see the rest of the week!!
Aww that is such a cute outfit! So bright and fun, loving the red tights <3
Awesome outfit! I love the red tights!
