Over the past week I have joined in iCurvy’s #Rulebreakersclub style challenge. It’s all about breaking the taboos we impose on dressing. Jo (and her community) came up with some “forbidden pairs” and invited the instagram style community to rip up the style rules.
What I learned about a capsule wardrobe from #ShopWhatYouGot
For the past 30 days, 30 items of my clothing have been in constant rotation, as has my washing machine. I have just completed Jo from iCurvyWorld‘s Shop What You Got challenge, wearing 30 items, 30 different ways.

Shop What You Got 2015 – My Edit
Every year Jo from iCurvyWorld hosts Shop What You Got – an online fashion challenge. The idea is you edit your wardrobe down to 30 pieces (including shoes) and only wear those pieces for a month, creating a different outfit each day.
I did it last year and loved the idea of making my clothes work a bit harder as well as coming up with new combinations. Last year I cheated and didn’t include shoes in my total. This year, I am going hardcore and not only including shoes, but I am not even going to declare my Melbourne Cup dress as an exception. I will declare two pairs of dress shoes as exceptions though (a girl has her limits.)
