What I've learned: 

1. I'm really itching to buy more accessories. Not really shoes, though I always want to buy those, but jewelry and bags. I have my fair share, but I tend to go back to my favorites because they work so well with everything. 

2. This is easier than I thought... so far. I probably could have done the shoes if I hadn't included tights and tanks. I've used four in the first six days, and these are the shoes that I tend to wear the most, so we'll see how the remaining 24 days go! 

3. I need more pattern in my life. I don't know whether I've mentioned this on my blog before but... I once won a contest to do a $500 shopping spree with Clinton Kelly at a local Macy's store. He taught me to make an outfit, you should always include color, texture, pattern and shine. There is indeed a bit of all four of those in each of my outfits- but I'd like to make pattern more obvious.

4. I remembered to start including my purse on day 6. I'll be better at this from now on.
