- 2Sara enjoyed … her clothes for the challenge.
- 3Sara felt that her … would help her succeed.
- 4Sara has posted … as part of the 10 x 10 challenge.
This week, we’re focusing on the 10 x 10 challenge, which was originally created by ethical fashion blogger ‘Style Bee’ in 2015, and is now a global trend online. The rules are simple:
choose ten items of clothing and wear them for ten days. You are allowed to add accessories, of course, but shoes are included in your choice of ten. Planning the challenge was a lot of fun. I’d seen other bloggers’ outfits from last year, and after that I was sure I’d be able to make it through the ten days. After all, I do have a lot of hats and scarves! Finally, I decided on a pair of skinny black jeans (obviously), two pairs of shoes (one flat and one with heels), one smart shirt, two more casual tops, a warm grey jumper, my favourite denim skirt, and my friend Beth lent me a pair of baggy brown trousers. So, how did I get on? Well, you can see the outfits I wore each day (arranged on my sofa) on my Instagram feed. You can’t see me, but the clothes tell their own story. Beth’s trousers were easily my favourite item. I wouldn’t normally wear something this shape, but they were very easy to style with different ‘looks’. Overall, I think I was successful but I made some mistakes, which you can avoid! I planned too much. It would have been better to leave one item free, as a ‘wild card’ to decide during the week itself. The weather in London was freezing. I would happily have swapped one pair of shoes for a proper coat. In the end, I cheated and wore exercise clothes after work to stay warm. (I’m not sure if they’re included in the challenge. But Style Bee does say that having fun is more important than following the rules!) I think people who complete the challenge will think differently about clothes. If you read my blog regularly you will know that I love exploring the charity shops in London. I love wearing old clothes and creating my colourful outfits (it’s a buzz knowing that no-one else has the same thing). But the 10 x 10 challenge reminds us not to shop at all. Or at least, to think about the purpose of our clothes rather than just their individuality. Over the next year, I
