Primary Prep || 15/30 Day 1



[Sweater: Tommy Hilfiger | Jeans: Joe's Jeans | Necklace: F21 | Bag: Chanel | Shoes: Stuart Weitzman | Watch: Citizen | Sunnies: Ray Ban | Lips: Revlon 006 Really Red Matte]

Editing down my entire closet to 15 pieces to wear for a month was... interesting. I rummaged through some of my most worn pieces to a few that haven't seen the light of day in years. I don't know why I thought this would be so difficult to begin with. It's like packing for a trip -- a variety of basics here, a couple of fun pieces there. This weird, extremely rainy & gloomy weather has me questioning my sartorial choices though. It's officially spring next week (come out silly Sun)! Still, it's nothing a good pair of black tights couldn't fix.

I'm not much of a stripes person, but when I see it done differently, I'm all over it. Loved the yummy yellow contrast trim & the buttons on the shoulder. Whenever I'm in the mood for something graphic, I gravitate towards this one.

You can also find me documenting this month-long 15/30 challenge on Instagram & Twitter (both @petiteave). :)
