Stay-At-Home Mom Style: 7x7 Remix

I have been wanting to do a wardrobe challenge like this since I first heard of Kendi's 30 for 30, but 1) I didn't have a blog to hold me accountable and 2) 30 days seemed kind of daunting. So I was pumped when Audrey announced that she was doing a 7x7 remix. It seemed so much more attainable that I just had to try it.

The idea is to choose 7 pieces (including shoes) and make 7 outfits out of those pieces.

So here are the 7 pieces that I chose:

1. Target/ 2. Old Navy/ 3. Target/ 4. Old Navy/ 5. Gap/ 6. Old Navy/ 7. Payless (can you tell my favorite stores yet?)

Since I have a hard time getting out of jeans, I decided to push myself to make outfits with things other than jeans that were still 100% stay-at-home mom approved. Here's what I came up with:

please ignore the fact that wall is a different color in all of these photos; my husband is still getting used to taking photos

One of the reasons I chose not to include jeans and push myself to find outfits without them was this polkadot chambray shirt. I refuse to wear it with jeans (obvs), so I wanted to find more ways to wear it and I feel like I succeeded. (Also, I technically could have had four more outfits by layering this shirt over the other two with both bottoms.)

I wish that I had been able to do more with the dress. I actually technically had 14 outfits, with putting each of the two shirts over the dress, and then the dress alone (in addition to the extra four I mentioned above), but I didn't like how it looked with either of the shirts and just a dress seemed boring for this, ya know? But I'm happy with the outfit I came up with for it and will definitely be using it sometime in the future, for a casual date with the husband or brunch with my family. 

Besides that, I think my favorite outfit is number 7. I love the almost-monochromatic feel of the magenta top with the light pink shorts, and the necklace really just makes it for me.

I feel like this was a successful first remix challenge, if I do say so myself. I got myself out of my comfort zone, yet found several mom-friendly outfits from some of my favorite pieces. I'm pretty excited to be able to wear them in the near future.

What do you think? Which outfit is your favorite?
