Project 333 wardrobe March

Project 333 wardrobe March


First of all, apologies for this being a bit late, but here is my 33 item wardrobe for March (from Polyvore).  Its had a few last minute additions as the weather here in London has suddenly turned freezing and snowy again (please- its March!  Some warmth would be most welcome).  Luckily I'd actually originally planned to 29 items only, so it was easy to add on a couple of things.  You'll notice its not too dissimilar to February in composition - I was hoping it would have a bit more of a springlike look to it by now- but with this weather we are still firmly in winter mode.  Just one significant new addition - my new Whistles dress (the blue and pink patterned one front and centre stage).  Its hubby's birthday tomorrow, so this will be getting an outing.  Can't wait!

I'm finding this 33 item wardrobe idea strangely liberating at the moment, although I suspect as the weather starts changing it may become trickier to cover all the bases.  It has definitely helped me to get rid of a number of things out of the wardrobe - focusses the mind on what really works rather than keeping things just in case.  Last month and this month together I've cleared 40 items out (10 % of my total wardrobe) - with another 12 that need Ebaying when I get round to it.  Slowly and surely.

Would love to know what you think.  Any suggestions of pieces to add?

Project 333 February

Project 333 February
As promised, here is the core of my February Project 333 wardrobe.  There are a couple of extra items that I haven't included, such as my huge puffa coat which has been worn almost constantly as it has been so cold!  The wrap dress in the top corner is the closest approximation of the actual dress I've been wearing - mine is blue, black and red.  I have worn each of the items pictured here, at least once, and most more than once.  I think it actually looks pretty good set out here like this! 
Here is the full list of things I've included (most of them are from previous seasons so unfortunately I can't add links to where to buy them.  The best approximations I could find are in the Polyvore set).
  1. Blue LK Bennett fitted blue jersey dress
  2. Monsoon blue and red tunic dress
  3. Valentine Gaulthier Navy blue midi dress
  4. LK Bennett Black pencil skirt
  5. Whistles pink pencil skirt (mine is longer than the one pictured)
  6. French connection grey sweater dress - mine has a full skirt than pictured
  7. Jigsaw navy silk round neck blouse
  8. Zara polka dot blouse
  9. French connection black chiffon shirt
  10. Black long sleeved t-shirt - relatively fitted and stretchy, more of a base layer
  11. Black high heeled shoe boots
  12. Black biker/riding boots
  13. Leopard print belt
  14. Blue patent belt
  15. All Saints black skinny jeans
  16. Current Elliott boyfriend jeans (the ones I have are the ones in the picture in this case)
  17. Orange and navy whistles scarf
  18. Uniqlo navy pea coat
  19. J Crew orange cashmere sweater
  20. French connection parka
  21. Zara 60's style black wool coat
  22. White company dark grey merino wool tunic top (not pictured)
  23. J Crew grey cashmere sweater
  24. Ash ankle boots
  25. Marks and Spencer heeled knee high boots
  26. Jigsaw black and tan striped long sleeve t-shirt
  27. Clarks navy blue shoe boots
  28. Monsoon puffa coat
  29. Next leopard print fake fur jacket
  30. J Brand combats (as pictured)
As mentioned before, although the list above is only 30 items (amazing how much it looks!), I have 'cheated' a little by not including jewellery - it would annoy me too much not being able to wear the right necklace for the outfit.
Would love to hear what you think.
