We’re a week out from the end of my spring 10×10 experiment where I wore 10 pieces of clothing for 10 days, so today I’ll be recapping my experience with the challenge/experiment/what else can I call it to make it sound less pressure-y, and sharing some of the things I’m taking away as I move forward with my closet. (This was probably an awful sentence to read for anyone into the English language and its grammar – Sorry! I love long sentences and use commas where my teachers tell me I ought not to.)

spring 10×10 • day 10
It’s the last day of this thing!!!!! Apologies for this belated post – I had kind of a rough go of it last night and spent some time crying my eyes out, which is possibly a post for another time if I ever decide to talk about this strained mother-daughter relationship o’ mine. But here we are, and better late than never, yeah?
spring 10×10 • day 9
ONE MORE DAY!!!! One day more like the Les Mis song? Today we’ve got another outfit that pushes me a bit out of my comfort zone in forcing me to combine pieces I thought wouldn’t work well together, and then upon finding them on my body I decide they do actually look kind of alright!
spring 10×10 • day 8
The last 3 days of the 10×10 are upon us! Hallelujah praise the clothing minimalist lord. Today’s outfit is entirely a product of me being too lazy to shower and then just thinking, “Well, what can I wear that’ll go with my baseball cap?”
spring 10×10 • day 7
Day 7! That’s, like, 3/4 of the way through this damned thing, right? I’m waiting anxiously to regain access to my full wardrobe again, but I’m also kind of enjoying how this 10×10 pushes me a bit out of my comfort zone. I never would’ve paired a button-up with these pants, because I assume it would look awful, but I actually like the look of it! So that’s at least one thing this challenge is good at – helping me discover new outfitz~* (in the midst of crying about my lack of shoe choices).
spring 10×10 • day 6
It is so blissful getting to wear anything you want and have the whole of your closet available, lemme tell ya. But after a weekend away from this 10×10, we’re back! Onto the last half of this thing –
spring 10×10 • day 5
It was raining today and thank heavens for that, because it means I could use it as an excuse to wear a different pair of shoes!
spring 10×10 • day 4
Well, well, well, look what we have here – Day 4 of 10×10, complete with a shitty Photoshop “graphic” I made because I wanted my image headers to be consistently weird looking, I guess. To be real, I am, uh, kind of already getting bored with these outfits. I guess it’s nice not having to think about it and, like, have the headspace to rush about your life without devoting too much thought to what you’re wearing, but – I don’t know. We’ll see how we get along in the coming days.
spring 10×10 • day 3
Day 3 is upon us, I’m onto my second pair of pants, and I’m realizing that I did not pick enough pants for this challenge!! I love bottoms (as in, articles of clothing that go on the bottom half of your body, not as in asses, although I like those too) way more than tops, and yet I skewed the wrong way in making this mini capsule wardrobe. Something to remember for next time.
Anyway, onto the outfit –
spring 10×10 • day 2
It’s Day 2 of 10×10! I sound excited now, but watch me be all, “It’s Day 6 of 10×10… I haven’t seen the light in many moons…” crawling on a dirty floor dramatic in a few days lol. OK, onto the outfit:
