BOM CHALLENGE No. 9

Your topic for the next challenge is .....

FASHION - 27 DRESSES (or just 1 or even NONE)
This next Challenge focuses on what you like to wear. Remember that how you dress is a significant part of who you are and how others perceive you (not that we are too concerned about what others think of us - how we see ourselves is more important in my book). Do you find that you have a specific style of dress? Are you into comfortable clothes rather than fashionable clothes? Do you dress for your body type? (No. I am not Trinny or Susannah - FYI - this is an interesting little article). Do you find that you wear the same colour more often than another? Is your wardrobe a true reflection of who you are? Do you have any particular weaknesses when it comes to fashion or clothing - eg. when you go clothing shopping do you buy an outfit with shoes, bag and accessories to match? Are you an impulse clothing buyer or do you try and match your new item with something you already have in your wardrobe? Do you own 100 pairs of shoes or just a few? Are you stuck in a time warp where your clothing and make-up is concerned? - eg. are you still wearing the blue eye-shadow and big hair of the 80's (although, this seems to be making a major comeback - those of us who are wiser than we were in the 80's know how to tone it down as we've gotten older ... tee hee ...)? Do you prefer the clothing of the 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's or 90's? Have you made any huge fashion faux pas during the years, and better still, do you have photos to prove it - this is scary stuff, girls ... tee hee ...? Why not throw in a little about your hairstyles through the years ... Has your taste changed significantly through the years and was there a particular milestone that brought on this change? (HA - making you think, aren't I?)

This is a HUGE topic and can encompass sooooo much so try to write your story before you even attempt your LO as you may require more journaling space than you realise. Your journaling could centre around a particular era or a particular photo ... Try and make this a little learn-about-me challenge and see if you really know YOUR OWN style ...

Good Luck and most importantly, ENJOY the JOURNEY ...

Love,

I so love this idea. I am such a Woolies tart though. I bought 2 new tops and black shoes just yesterday. Now I have the same shirt in 3 colours.LOL. What does that say about me...that I like a uniform? Can't wait to see everyone's creations.
