30 for 30 Challenge Twist

I've decided to start Kendi's 30 for 30 challenge! Now, this is going to be a supreme challenge for me. But, I'm putting a twist on this challenge.
I'm only choosing some of my clothes in the mix for when I go to Europe and then wearing that mixed with whatever I pick when I get back.
I know it's going to be a stretch and kind of deviates from the 30/30 rules, but I'm trying to do what I can and work this in!
I'm going to Europe for 15 days and that's going to be my remix.
I know I couldn't stick to something for thirty days straight, so I decided to start with a smaller, more reachable goal and this is it!
I'll be posting my items soon, but thought I'd let you know! :D

Of course, this could backfire. But I hope it doesn't and I'm gonna do anything to ensure that!
I will be gone for those fifteen days with limited or no internet access though, so when I stop posting, you'll know when I'm gone! Gonna miss blogging and reading blogs, but I'm so so so excited to be going to Europe for the first time! I'm touring London, Paris, Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Italy! And all in fifteen days! Call me crazy, but it's happening!

I'll be starting the challenge on June 21st!

I'm not quitting, I'm resigning.

Okay, so I found that the 30 Day Challenge just isn't working for my life. It's been over 20 days since I started and I've gotten less than 10 outfits done. Its just hard for me because of my life being a living dance class. I just feel bad never posting my outfit because I know it doesn't fit the criteria of my 30 Day Challenge. Though I can say it did help because I didn't shop until today. When I went to Gap and got a new pair of jeans, a cardigan and a dance shirt. That brings up another problem with the challenge for me; I need to do my school shopping! I can't believe it, school starts in 2 weeks. Wow. Time goes by so quickly; summer didn't seem long enough. I still have a Beowulf project to finish, so I'm nervous about that. But I'm really glad I did the challenge as far as I did; that's a pretty big deal for me.
Well I hope you guys aren't mad at me for stopping the challenge... I hope you still follow my blog; I'll be posting more often, seeing I can actually post my outfits without worrying now. I'm apologizing to you and myself; I'm really mad I couldn't finish the challenge.
But thank you guys for being there for me and commenting on my sets; it really means a lot to me! I love you all!

See? I promised you guys that I'd have a post today! I really like this outfit, I think I'm gonna use it for a photo shoot with my friend this Saturday; I like stripes and flowers together!
My foot is doing better, but I get to find out what's wrong with it Monday, I'm so nervous! I want to be able to dance as soon as possible, so hopefully it's nothing too big. For now, I'm just limping around and occasionally using crutches; it doesn't hurt unless I'm constantly on it, so it's all good.
I hope everyone doing the challenge is having good luck! Hopefully not getting any fashion block! I've been looking at all of your blogs (I try to follow everyone on Kendi's list) and all of your outfits are FANTASTIC! I cannot believe the talent on here! You guys are incredibly amazing, I love you all!!

Sidenote: WOW. As I'm writing this, I'm realizing how dirty my computer screen is! Eek. I need to clean it.

6/30

So today was a really awesome day. I stayed in bed until four reading Breaking Dawn. I only started the series a few days ago and it's scary that I'm already on the last book! I actually do like the series quite a lot. Hey readers! You Team Edward or Team Jacob? I'm personally Team Edward. Jacob... I don't know. Just does not give me a good vibe.
Fiction Dani. Fiction.
After I read lazily in my room, I got to go to an open mic night at a local frozen yoghurt shop. My friends and I all loitered around town and took LOTS of pictures. It was a really fun night!



My hair just kind of freaked me out here, in an awesome way.

My friends and I were taking pictures in an alleyway!

I gotta feeling... Day 3 of the 30 for 30 Challenge

I'm probably gonna post a Polyvore set every other day instead of a picture. Dirty hair keeps me from taking pictures. I just feel nasty. Blah.

I'm worried because I'm already kind of running out of things to wear. Though this challenge IS helping me realize that I need to get some more skirts that are flattering. My skirts are mostly the same style with different patterns, so I realized I'm gonna need some new stuff after this challenge. So much for continuing the not shopping much past the challenge... But I'm gonna need some new stuff for school.
And a lot of my stuff is getting to be big on me... This is no good. For the challenge. Great for losing weight though! So this is gonna be an interesting challenge continuation...

Today I wore a black pocket tee, a black skirt and leggings.
That's it. I felt incredibly lazy.
That could be because I had a buncha dance classses... Yeah, that's it.

2/30






I do realize these aren't the best pictures ever, but I tried. Today, I tried changing my dance outfit quickly into a normal one. I had ballroom in the early afternoon; where I wore leggings and the black shirt. My friends and I wanted to go to the movies at night, so I quickly threw on my skirt and some jewelry and VOILA! Nice outfit. 
I'm absolutely in love with this skirt. I must say, when I saw it at h&m, it JUMPED out at me. I almost didn't get it though, They didn't have my size, so I had to grab one that was larger and was worried it wasn't gonna fit. It didn't... But it was so cute! So I pinned it a little tighter and now it looks okay!!
My mum hates it cause' she says it makes me look like I have huge hips. Though that's the gospel truth, she thinks something else would make it look better. Heh.
Well until tomorrow.



30 for 30 Challenge;; Day 1/30.








So I was incredibly busy [and yet lazy] yesterday. Apparently too much of each to take a stupid minute and take a picture of myself! So I decided just to make a Polyvore set of what I wore yesterday. Call me lazy, but it won't happen again... Hopefully.

30 for 30 Challenge starts tomorrow. (Well today, cause' it's already 12:13!)

IT'S COMING! 
The challenge is starting and I'm actually really excited! I need to choose my stuff tonight though still! I decided I'm going to choose stuff I want to wear as a fashionista, not as a lazy dancer.
But this challenge might have some, well, challenges. Because I dance all day long and I'm usually too lazy to change out of my cut up t-shirt, leggings and gold flats; my dance uniform outside of my ballroom heels. 
So you guys gotta keep me on track with this thing!
