"But I have nothing to wear!"

Did you see this article today in the NYT? Six Items or Less is a style experiment that presented a monster challenge of wearing only 6 items for 31 days.

They refer to the experience as a "shopping diet" - and I'm guessing it's something that many women relate to in terms of over-shopping and over-buying. (Thank goodness for Kaboodle - it keeps us in line!).

The article featured 4 brave closet-fasters: 3 women..,and 1 man! Definitely check out the pictures of their outfits. They are all careful and creative - so they never looked sloppy or repetitive!

Do you think you could slim down on your shopping? What six pieces would you use to make up an entire wardrobe?

Great article! Only picking six pieces would be hard. It would be like being on Survivor! I could do it if there were a cash reward in the end! Then I would go shopping with the money! Report Spam Posted by clothesminded at 8:55 AM on 07/22/10
if it were the 'right' six items.. maybe but I get bored fairly quickly...my items: jeans, black pants, skirt, dress, some cute top, jacket - I mean do the six items include shoes?? hahaha I would need at least one pair of heels and one pair of sneakers...now if it could be 8 items- I would toss in a hoodie and another shirt (so I would have one dressy and one casual shirt in the mix) Report Spam Posted by sweetshorty at 9:05 AM on 07/22/10
I like DETAILS on my clothes so they arent boring. I would feel so blah yawn with only 6 things all in similar colors Report Spam Posted by earthangel67 at 12:31 PM on 07/22/10
