Day 5-The End

Blogging on a Friday afternoon is like slamming a door out of anger in an empty house... no one is around to care. I don't usually post at this time, a nice glass of red wine holds a stronger pull than blogging on the weekends, but I just want to finish off my capsule challenge.
I quite like today's outfit, but then again the weather is so nice outside, I'm pretty sure I'd like tie-dye tights and a polyester, asymmetrically hemmed skirt in this sunshine. The plaid shirt has definitely been the star of the wardrobe challenge...long enough to be worn as an almost tunic, light enough to be tucked into anything, blue enough to be cheery and yet, neutral enough to work with lots of options. I'm going to go ahead an give my shirt a metaphorical high-five for being so awesome...
The wardrobe challenge was surprisingly fun. I ended up not using one of the belts I selected and the heels were perhaps not the most practical choice for a winter weekday, but overall I'm happy with the variety of looks. I feel like I could have gone on a couple days and tried more combinations. But I'm not going to go on... my other clothes are shedding tears because they miss me and my weekend plans call for extravagance. Yes ma'am, I'm pumped for my weekend! Blogging everyday was tiring...whine, whine...haha, now I must wine, wine to recover... Yeah, that was bad.

Please indulge me for a moment and tell me your favourite look this week...

  2. All your outfits were great but I'm picking Wednesday as my favourite. I've been taking part in the challenge as well and I'm doing the weekend!

    Have fun with your weekend outfits (I'm sure my 'other' clothes miss me as well...)!

  3. A perfect capsule, and such varied looks created from it.

  4. They're all great but I think I like Thursday best - perhaps it's the glasses?

  5. I think I like the last 3 the best... very hard to pick a fav... but maybe number 4?? You look awesome all the time soooo... :)

  8. I'm digging Thursday's look the most

  9. Oooh, a tough call between Tuesday's look and Wendesday's. In the end, I have to come down on the side of Tuesday: I'm still loving the pretty-tough combo of sparkly shrug and leather jacket.

    Have a great weekend! That glass of wine sounds like an excellent idea...

  10. ooh, i'm looking forward to some wine tonight too. i still have a couple hours before i can get my drink on though. as much as i love today's outfit, i do think wednesday is my favorite. it's those tights. they are super awesome.

    ReplyDelete
  11. My fave look is Monday by far (LOVE IT!!!). Second place Wednesday. That blue shirt is an absolute superstar, but the black dress is pretty damn excellent too.

    Have a great weekend!

  13. I like Wednesday and Thursday the best. I can see myself in both of those outfits and like the way they bring together things I might not have thought of.

  17. Yay it's over. Good for you, I don't think I'd put in enough effort to do this!

    I loved Tuesdays look and today's look. Tuesday mainly because of the shoes and sparkle, and today's look is just way too adorable =D

  18. i LOVE them all and would wear any of them in a moment's notice. aren't plaid shirts the best? yes, they are.
    i vote for thursday (which i somehow managed to miss--it is such a quirky casual look).

    ReplyDelete

  20. I haven't really had time to comment this week but I've been checkin in with you regularly - you're rockin' this capsule wardrobe thing! I especially love Thu. although today's is really awesome too!

    And, yes, I also felt a wee bit vindicated when you noted how damn annoying it can be to take your own photos. Thank you for saying that! ;)

  21. Tuesday for me. I just can't go past the shrug and jacket.
    Such a refreshing combination!

    ReplyDelete
  22. I think Tuesday and Friday are my favorites. This just goes to show that there's way too much shit in my closet. Must remedy that...

    ReplyDelete
  23. Cute!!!! #1 and #5 are my favs.

    Happy weekend!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  24. Today's is my total fave! I love the colors and layering and you are the only person who would look cute in that hat (sorry, I'm just not a hat person, but this one looks uber-cool on you!)

    ReplyDelete
  25. Nothing better than wine on a Friday afternoon!

    To answer the question tho ... I'm going with a tie between Tuesday and Thursday.

    ReplyDelete
  26. So hard to choose...I like them all! I think Tuesday and Friday are my favourites, though.

    I love doing these challenges - so fun! I'll have a poll up for voting on my outfits this weekend.

    I'm going to enjoy some wine tonight as well. Great idea!

  28. I'm a bit torn between Tuesday and Friday but in the end... Friday. It makes you look a million miles long. What girl doesn't love that? Plus there's a hat. And hats are special

    ReplyDelete
  29. Completely in love with Friday and somewhat resembling the jolly green giant of envy because I cannot for the life of me look that fabulous in checks! The post-baby E cups will simply not allow it! LOL. I love Friday's outfit, from the trilby to the boots. Big thank you to An Affair with Fashion for introducing me to you, what a fantastic blog. Enjoying every word.
