Audrey at Putting Me Together posted about this 7x7 remix challenge the other day and I thought hey, why not. I actually did do this with actual clothes that I own, but we're in the process of getting ready to move right now and my photo taking capabilities and locales are pretty compromised, so I thought I'd just cheat and use Polyvore. That is the actual cardigan and mint knit tank; everything else is a close approximation (my skirt doesn't have buttons, but I wish it did.)
This last one is the most formal, if you can even really call it that. I thought perhaps the cardigan would be weird over the knit tank but it actually works- just make sure to tuck in the little tail on the tank ;-) It's sort of like a twin set.
I think 7 items is a little too restrictive for me- a lot of the outfits look very much the same, by necessity. Needs room for some accessories. I suppose I could've challenged myself more by using some prints, but I barely own any- I'm really a solids and stripes kinda gal. Not including shoes in the 7 would've left room for some more layers, too. But hey, if you were going a trip and really only wanted to pack 7 things, it totally works!
